Join us this Sunday 13th 10am UTC+1, for meditation and a discussion of the 7th Precept ~ avoiding slanderous speech.

“Abandoning slanderous speech
a certain one abstains therefrom.

When he hears something at one place
he does not proclaim it elsewhere
to bring about a quarrel between the parties;
what he has heard here
he does not report there
to bring about a quarrel between the parties;
thus he brings together the discordant,
restores harmony,
harmony is his delight,
he exults in,
is passionately fond of harmony;
he utters speech that makes for harmony.”

- The Buddha to Cunda the Silversmith
