Replacing Addiction with Compassion
|
|
The
real purpose of Buddhist practice is to cut down your addictions and to
correct your habitual patterns and this can be achieved as a layperson
or as a monk or nun. That brings us to the question of Buddhist
ethics?changing habitual patterns and getting rid of the old addictions,
such as attachments, and replacing them with love, compassion,
generosity, and patience.
