 Don't take the smallest evil lightly – the wisdom of life in law-watching

There are mistakes, big and small, in the world. Some ignore the sound of conscience, saying, "This is okay," and others continue to make small mistakes without being aware of their seriousness. However, the Buddhist scriptures, 'beop-gwari', send us a strong message.

"

Don't commit a sin, even the smallest evil, but take it lightly, and you will have a great sin if you gather and fill the pot

– in the sight of the law

A small evil is a great sin

This phrase is a moral warning that should be deeply engraved in our daily lives.

Little lies, petty greed, a word of indifference towards others... At first, it may feel fine. But when those little actions are repeated and piled up, one day, we can come back with heavy consequences in our lives like raindrops filling a jar.


Why do we easily pass a small mistake?

• "Everyone does this much."
• "No one knows anyway."
• "It'll be okay this time."


These are rationalization words that exonerate ourselves, but the law says.
Small evil is never small.

It becomes a habit, it becomes a personality, and eventually it becomes fate.

The same goes for goodness
Another part of the law caliber says this.

"
Don't ignore no matter how small the line is. Gather like a drop of water and it lights up your life.

Small kindness, trivial consideration, 1 minute of appreciation per day...
As these little good deeds pile up, we build more and more brilliant personalities and warm lives.

5 Little Lines We Can Practice

1. Say thank you once a day
2. Reduce unnecessary speech – silence instead of gossip
3. Smile at the person who makes eye contact while walking down the street
4. Picking up trash when you see it
5. finding the good of others and complimenting them

Even though this behavior seems small, it becomes a powerful seed that changes your life positively.

concluding – today, which drop did you drop?

It's not easy to overcome little evil,

A life that cherishes small good.

That's the right way to live the right life.

Today, look back on what drops you filled your jar with.

And tomorrow, fill it with clearer and nicer drops.
