Sukihotu
The profound Dhamma is the teaching of the of morality is necessary. Then when there is morality, we have a foundation on which we can progress in Dhamma. Morality means the precepts of which what is forbidden and what is permissible. Dhamma refers to nature and to what human knowing about nature - how things exist according to nature. Nature is something we do not compose. It exist as it is according to its conditions.
All things of nature existing in the world - this is still talking about understanding from the worldly view point. The Buddha taught us Dhamma for us to know nature, to let go of it let it exist according to its conditions. This is talking about the exterior material world. As to namadhamma, meaning the mind,it cannot be left to follow its own conditions. It has to be trained. in the end we can say mind is body and speech, so it need to be well trained.Letting it go according to natural urges just make one an animal. It has to be instructed and trained. It should come to know nature, but should not merely be left to follow nature.
