Right Speech.

Right Speech is one of the points of the Eightfold Path of the Buddha and corresponds to the 3rd. Ray.

How can you ensure that your speech is right, is balanced ?

—By governing your speech through love.

Why ?   So that you do not keep on creating problems in your life and making negative karma for yourself.

Right speech can only be governed by love.

Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.”     ( Proverbs  4:23)

“—of the abundance of the heart , his mouth speaks.” (Luke 6:45.c)

Whatever is in your heart will eventually come out of your mouth.

So if you are full of negativity, especially fear, anger and hatred,

 then that is what will come forth when you speak.

Only love in your heart can ensure that you speak words of kindness, encouragement and affection.
