Spells and bewitchment are heretical teachings. Do not mention something that is not true. It is not your place to talk about others' family matters. Needless to defend yourself when in a wrong position. Never say anything that may cause harm to people. Never spread unwholesome and detrimental news. It is better not to discuss mere hearsay. There is nothing to say about relationships. Never bring up anything that is not true. Hold back sharing your moments of embarrassment. Be sure to clarify your misunderstandings. Neighborhood rumors are just gossip. Think thrice before you speak out of anger. Mistakes are always being mentioned. Apologies should be said in person. Never speak again of past disputes. There is no need to mention what may dampen moods. Give your advice only according to circumstances. It does not hurt to mention past experiences.
