Hey all, I'll jump right In to why I want to know this.
I want to follow Buddhism properly, and one of the teachings Is right speech and one other teaching or guideline Is to refrain from false speech.
This generally means Gossip/Slandering abusive words swearing alot and just abusive verbal langauge.Any form of verbal Misconduct or Abuse Buddha frowned upon or disliked It heavily.
But what exactly Is Gossip or slandering?
As far as I can tell Slandering Is just spreading malicious rumours or lies about other poeple for the sake of conversation or to make someone feel angry or disgusted at who ever your talking about.
Gossip I think Is taking topics or other poeple's business or actions and then just chatting or mocking someone behind thier back.
So Is It gossip If you talked to someone else about something they've done and It's true?
Is It only gossip if you don't know the facts and just speak what everyone else Is saying and or dose It matter wether It's true or not did it still count as gossip?
Would like help here simple clear explanation please!!!!!
Gossip and slander what exactly Is It?
