Venerable Wuling in Practice, Wisdom

 

When you know for yourselves that certain things

are unwholesome and bad:

tending to harm yourself or others,

reject them.

 

And when you know for yourselves that certain things

are wholesome and good:

conducive to the spiritual welfare of yourself as well as others,

accept and follow them. 

~ Attributed to the Buddha ~
