Published 5 years, 6 months ago
Description
We must not underestimate the significance of dedicating ourselves to the five precepts. Such a commitment to virtue provides a moral and ethical basis for life that will ultimately lessen our suffering. We find ourselves embodying qualities of truthfulness, kindness and care for ourselves and others that touch a new level of inner happiness, one of the factors of enlightenment. A talk given during a Toronto Theravada Buddhist Community (TBC) retreat in 2008.
