A loving intent is what brings about a true generosity; any gift given without love and a genuine intention to help is considered to bring about a harmful effect.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ethics.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to the Buddhist, the intention to live ethically is the first help. It includes refraining from negative acts, assisting others and always seeking the positive things. Though some harmful acts being carried out by us may\u00a0not be intentionally, such as jocularly wishing someone ill will, but, the doers are advised to make a vow, and also work on making a change.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Patience.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Components of skillful patience can include enduring a hard time with dignity, acknowledging that those doing wrong\u00a0are doing the best they can to be better and also being patient with your own path to enlightenment.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Joyful Endeavor.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With joyful endeavor, you can be enthusiastic while pursuing enlightenment (the ultimate truth in life), and this also will help reduce your suffering during perseverance.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Meditation.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4>Read also: <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psychologyandi.com\/6-things-you-didnt-know-about-karma\/\">6 Things You Didn\u2019t Know About Karma<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">One who meditates regularly secures not only the ability to be the watcher, but the manager of thoughts and emotions. Every practitioner is given the opportunity to see the difference between the mind&#8217;s activity and one&#8217;s true nature.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Wisdom<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This\u00a0perfection which is regarded as one of the qualities of a complete life, comes from meditation, education and self-study.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
