Buddha's Advice on intoxicants. (Pure Wisdom)


Words of the Buddha:
“Furthermore, abandoning the use of intoxicants, the disciple of the noble ones abstains from taking intoxicants. In doing so, he gives freedom from danger, freedom from animosity, freedom from oppression to limitless numbers of beings.” (AN 8.39, tr. Thanissaro Bhikkhu)

The fifth training rule, or precept, is “I undertake the training rule to abstain from intoxicants causing heedlessness”.
