THE FIFTH PRECEPT

FIFTH PRECEPT

The fifth is to UNDERSTAND THE RULES.

For the most part these rules are a guide, a very good guide to help anyone to better understand themselves, and to purge themselves of fault they find less than desirable. Understand no rule is absolute. There is always a time, circumstance, moment, or instant when one must go against the rule in order to get a better desired outcome. Of course it takes true wisdom to know when those moments are. Tho, I say these rules are guides and not absolute I would say if you choose to break them the majority of the time you should not even bother with this practice. Simply put if you can't follow the rules of the group then are you really a part of the group? I would say no. Anyone following the code, truly, also would say so. Follow the rules as best you can not trying to find the exceptions they will come on their own. The exceptions are rare moments in most lives and far in between.

In Reverence, is my faith
