Most religions have scriptures which are used as authoritative guides for living. However, ‘scriptures’ should not be viewed merely as wisdom written in books. The entire world ought to be viewed as a ‘scripture’. When we look around, we can see scripture. When we listen, we can hear scripture. When others act, we can see scripture. Furthermore, we are scriptures to others. By our words and actions – good and bad - others see living scriptures guiding them how to live wisely and skillfully. Our lives ‘recite’ scripture by the way we respond, think, speak and act. Don’t rely only on the written word; also pay attention to the living word. - VMP
