Was listening to a talk (cd) about the bodhisattva precepts, and one build on the not lying precept, that one should not gossip or talk bad about 4 groups of people.
Often we speak without thinking, after which we go "sorry sorry".
But that is not being mindful.
If we take the precepts, we should ever be mindful and hold on fast to it, and not speak without thinking and go sorry sorry after.
I did that once after listening to e talk. And I caught the sorry sorry. But not before I spoke ill of someone already.
They say "sorry no cure". And in terms of karma, that is true.
I can only promise to continue being mindful.
