Precepts Review

One, do not kill. Do not steal. Do not commit adultery. Those are the precepts about our body, body activity. Do not lie. Do not sell liquor. Do not bring up the faults of others. Do not boast about yourself and blame others. Those are about our word or mouth. Do not withhold material and spiritual possessions. Do not become angry. Do not debase the triple treasures. Those are about our minds - mind.   ------------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture 67-06-12 as found on shunryusuzuki.com.
