Buddha observes a simple moral framework of non-harming. The way we relate to others really creates the kind of person we become. It shapes how we experience the future in very particular ways. If the mind is habituated or oriented toward morality, then disturbing emotions won't arise. If it is habituated in non-virtue, then we suffer a great deal. Everything we experience is stored, ripens, and helps shape how we experience the present. Therefore, logically, I should sow the seeds of happiness, (benefit others), and avoid sowing the seeds of suffering, (harming others). This is part of a series of talks given at the Himalayan Buddhist Meditation Center in Kathmandu, Nepal, on April 5-7, 2019.
