Advice to a student on why it’s important to bless the speech.
In the morning, do the practice of blessing the speech well. [You can find this practice in the FPMT booklet How to Make My Lives Wish-Fulfilling: The Method to Transform a Suffering Life into Happiness.]
This practice gives your speech power, so then you will be successful when you talk to others and they will listen to you. While you are talking to the person, on your tongue is all the buddhas’ holy speech power, so then others will listen and follow.
This is one thing to really help for success. Blessing your speech is needed every day, basically for enlightenment and to be able to enlighten other sentient beings. Please remember this.
