Q 16. Why is it not right to break sila even as a joke?
Questions on AnapanaAns. Why indulge in a sense of humour which prompts you to break your sila? There can be numerous jokes that do not require you to behave immorally. If you break your sila once, even as a joke, you will be tempted to do it again and again. Today you are breaking it as a joke and tomorrow it will become a permanent habit for you. You will find justification in doing it. Immorality under all circumstances is wrong, and so try not to ever indulge in it, even jokingly.
Related QuestionsQ 20. If we happen to break our sila, how do we make amends for it?
Questions on AnapanaAns. If you happen to break your sila, then admit it before someone older. Do not hide your mistakes. If you conceal your mistake, then you are liable to repeat it. It will start an endless process. If you confess to someone older and respectable that you have made a mistake, and also promise not to repeat the same mistake under any circumstance, you will see that your mind will gain strength. When you don't conceal any of your bad actions, you are not tempted to repeat them.
Related QuestionsQ 19. How can one protect oneself without breaking one's sila?
Questions on AnapanaAns. Just as you protect others by protecting your sila, similarly protect yourself without breaking your sila. On one hand, you may wish to protect yourself and on the other, you may speak of breaking your sila. By breaking sila, you act immorally, and your action will produce the fruit of misery for you in the future. So how can you claim to have protected yourself? How can you claim to have saved yourself? In fact, you have ruined your own security by not following the right code of conduct.
Related QuestionsQ 15. How does the breath help in preserving our sila?
Questions on AnapanaAns. As already explained, the irregularity in the respiration gives us a warning signal when morality is not being observed. At that time, by focusing our attention on the respiration, we will become alert and vigilant and not perform an unwholesome action.
Related QuestionsQ 14. How can the observation of breath assist in practising the moral precepts (sila)?
Questions on AnapanaAns. This is indeed a good question. If the observation of breath does not help us to preserve morality and establish ourselves in Dhamma, then it is a futile exercise. This technique will be very beneficial in living a good life. If we continue to observe the natural flow of respiration, we will find that it helps us to gain control over our mind. Our mind will not be as weak and restless as before. Its ability to concentrate will improve.
