    Hi TheFound,

    Virtue (or "Sila") serves as a basis for developing the mind. If our conduct is not at least reasonably harmless then it is difficult to develop the mental qualities of calm and insight.

    Metta,

    either you want to play in samsara or you're tired of it.

    if you want to play in samsara, try it out for a couple years.

    buddhism is always here and always will be here.
