LORD BUDDHA' ON RIGHT LIVING

The First good level is Right Doctrine. Walk fn fear of Dharmam, shunning all offense; In heed of Karma, which doth make man's fate; i4 lordship over sense.

The second is Right Purpose. Have good-will To all that lives, letting unkindness die

And greed and wrath; so that your lives be made Like soft airs passing by.

The Third is Right Discourse. Govern the lips

As they were palace doors, the King within; Tranquil and fair and courteous be all words Which from that presence win.

The Fourth is Right Behavior. Let each act Assail a fault, or help a merit grow;

Like threads of silver seen through crystal beads, Let love through good deeds show.

Four higher roadways be. Only those feet

May tread them which are done with earthly things, Right Purity, Right Thoughg Right Loneliness, Right Rapture.

-Lord Buddha
