Sharon Beckman-Brindley gave this dharma talk on Jan 10, 2017 at the Insight Meditation Community of Charlottesville.
The Buddha taught the precepts, not as an arbitrary set of rules, but as a crucial part of a skillful path of freedom from suffering. Following the precepts, he taught, leads to sane and joyous living that binds all beings together by cultivating goodheartedness, compassion and restraint. This talk provides an overview of the five Buddhist precepts.
