The First Precept Is Not a Rule - It's a Practice of Freedom
In this talk, Jessica Gibbons explores the first Buddhist precept through the lens of intention, harm, and our responsibility to all living beings. She explains how non-harming is not a rigid moral rule, but a living practice of mindfulness, discernment, and compassion that helps us reduce suffering in daily life.
