The three kinds of Wholesome Intention: Sankappa, Aditthana, Cetana
2016-02-24 The three kinds of Wholesome Intention: Sankappa, Aditthana, Cetana 54:57
Sally Armstrong
This talk is about the similarities and subtle differences of the 3 kinds of intention: Cetana (...intention, purpose, objective, agenda, goal, target, etc.), Sankappa (right thought and intent, avoiding unwholesome mind states, cultivating wholesome, etc.) and Aditthana (decision, resolution, self-determination, will and resolution, etc.) All three types are important resources as we train our heart/minds through intensive practice and in our day to day lives.
