Take the Next Step
One teaching of the Buddha serves as a profound reminder as we live immersed in the busyness of the world: when we practice, wisdom grows; when we don’t practice, it wanes. Wisdom is not something we get and then have forever; rather, it develops in our lives. The Buddha’s way is vast, and the potential for each of us is boundless. But it is up to us to take the next step.
