Wise Speech (5/5): Is It the Right Time to Speak? (+MN 58)

Nikki Mirghafori
By: Nikki Mirghafori

*Guidelines for Wise Speech from the Series This Week *

Questions to ask ourselves before we speak:
1. Is it true and factual?
2. Is it divisive? Or does it create harmony?
3. Is it harsh and abusive? Or is it gentle?
4. Is it idle chatter? Or is it beneficial?
5. Am I speaking with a mind of goodwill?
6. Is this the right time?
