In the Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta, the Buddha gave guidance on how to speak with awareness+wisdom. We only have to consider the difficulties that have arisen out of miscommunications with each other to appreciate skillful talking. While beginning yogis are initially asked to refrain from speaking, a longer-term yogi ought to learn to talk with awareness+wisdom. We are developing this skill for our main places of practice: the home, workplace, office, or business. No one will be practicing at a meditation center her whole life but by learning how to practice for outside, both the mundane affairs and meditation for the supramundane can go hand-in-hand.
