If you know something hurtful and not true, don't say it. If you know something hurtful and true, don't say it. If you know something helpful but not true, don't say it. If you know something helpful and true, find the right time to say it.

Seeker, empty the boat, lighten the load, be free of craving and judgment and hatred, and feel the joy of the way.
