Give Up What Destroys You

Description

Harmlessness is a gift to ourselves and to others. The child of courage and the mother of true peace, it relies on core practices of virtue and  nonviolence. To abandon anger and its retinue of hatred, ill-will, fear and blame is to protect ourselves and all beings in this world. We walk the moral high ground of forgiveness, tolerance, loving-kindness and compassion. These shall serve as the bedrock of our inner disarmament. A talk at the 10th Global Conference on Buddhism, Neuroscience, and Mental Health, Toronto 2017.
