The words of the Buddha: Wholesome follows wholesome, unwholesome follows unwholesome. Causes and conditions that we are unable to influence provide the background of our life. Our actions result in positive as well as negative effects.

It is our own responsibility how much or how little suffering we experience in this life.

Bhavana is Buddha’s call to cultivate the mind.

This is done on three levels: first the observance of ethical principles (sila), followed by persistent meditative practice (samadhi), and culminating in the unintentional appearance of primordial wisdom (prajna).

Through this threefold practice, we accustom ourselves to a wholesome way of life.
