Sutta for these days


Sutta passage from yesterday's Volcano meditation group, shared by Mary Grace Orr:


"Others will kill. We shall not kill. Thus we should direct our hearts.

Others will be cruel. We shall not be cruel. Thus should we direct our hearts.

Others will speak falsely. We will speak what is true. Thus we should direct our hearts.

Others will be fraudulent. We shall not be fraudulent. Thus we should direct our hearts.


Others will be hateful. We shall become loving. Thus we shall direct our hearts.


Others will be unwise. We shall become wise. Thus we shall direct our hearts." 


May we carry these intentions with courage, as a beacon and a medicine, as a blessing to all we touch.
