The Practice of Right Speech

The practice of right speech is not something you do and that's your whole pa. We're practising right speech as people who do zazin and chant the hart sutra. To speak the truth in a way that causes others to suffer might be truthful speech, but it would not be right speech. Aticnahan writes, the truth must be presented in ways others can understand. Understand before you speak. Meanings are not in the words.
