What is Gossip

A person asked me”what is gossip”?. This soul replied”gossip is garbage being dumped into your mind.garbage are like termites and they convert your mind into a reservoir of bad thoughts. “He asked me what to do to avoid gossip. This soul replied”avoid such people or if you cannot run away from such people hear them but do not listen to them”. My friend looked puzzled and this soul left the place allowing him to chew the cud. Happy blissful enlightening day.
