7. Not giving Dharma to those who desire it.
This commitment advises us that whenever we have the chance we should try to eliminate the darkness of ignorance from the minds of others by giving Dharma teachings.
Valid reasons for not teaching include:
we do not know the subject well enough
it is not suitable to teach them
it would make others unhappy
we are ill
we do not have the free time
and so on.
What do you think? I think I'll wait and fill in my own thoughts after I hear a bit from you lot.
