Still Breaking Precepts?
If you are a Buddhist, who keeps breaking the precepts knowingly, with no intention to stop, does that make you a true Buddhist? Well, practice of upholding the precepts is but the first aspect of Buddhist practice. We are not perfect now and certainly cannot be perfect straightaway – but we must strive towards perfection continually. This is what true Buddhists should so. Otherwise, we are not just ‘bad Buddhists’, but bad persons too.
