Speak Less

by His Holiness Buddha Maitreya

Try not to open your mouth as often as you can.

Be quiet and be in the moment and see other things going on other than yourself.

You need one to two persons to really communicate with.

Don't gossip.

Hold off before you say something and come from your heart. Push the "pause" button before you speak.

Speak your revelations, otherwise, remain quiet.

If someone is talking to you, respond with phrases such as "oh, is that right," "that must be terrible," you don't have to make a comment about things.

Be quiet and your soul speaks. It is revealing a new way to see things. Cut back on phone conversations.

Only communicate when it is practical, helpful or necessary.
