Bhagwan Mahavir has said–”The spoken word does not just influence the mind of a listener, the whole universe is agitated by the sound waves so generated.” And so one should use his wisdom and sagacity to weigh his words before uttering. He should ensure that his words do not pinch or hurt others. Words can be more destructive than a bomb. Regarding the discipline of speech Bhagwan Mahavir has given a very important aphorism-never wound anyone by uttering anything that stings (like taunts or revealing secrets). A sting of word destroyed a happy family. The sting of words and gives the message that one should weigh his words before uttering and should speak only that what is good and pleasing.
