Moral Conduct:
Moral conduct is the basic principle of Buddhism for the training and developing of an ordinary person to become a perfect human being. It consists of commitment to (1) avoid killing and harming living beings while trying to develop loving-kindness and compassion; (2) avoid taking what is not given while trying to develop sincerity and respect for ownership and the possessions of others; (3) avoid sexual misconduct while trying to develop honesty and respect toward the opposite sex; (4) avoid false speech while trying to develop truthfulness and sincerity; (5) avoid taking intoxicating drink and harmful drugs while trying to develop mindfulness and awareness in daily life.
