Unskillful


Greed, hatred and delusion are unskillful.Whatever the greedy, hating or deluded person does with body, speech or mind--that is unskilled too. Whatever one overwhelmed by greed, hatred or delusion and with mind uncontrolled does to another, unjustly causing him suffering through punishment, imprisonment, fine, abuse, banishment, or on the excuse that 'might is right'--all that is unskilled, too.
