Use kind speech |
Addressing volunteers at the temple: Kind words are better than harsh speech.
Kind words engender respect and cooperation from the person you are speaking to, rather than fear.
If people fear you, they will not want to help you in the future.
Then your work will be slow, and since they did not help you they will miss the opportunity to gain merit.
Disagreements should be addressed civilly and sensitively and people will be willing to learn from you.
Then we will accomplish our work and they will also gain merit. |
