Being Beyond Doubt!

Beyond all Doubt, Perplexity and Confusion!

The Blessed Buddha once said: There are 5 primary mental Abilities:

1: The ability of Faith (saddhā)
2: The ability of Energy (viriya)
3: The ability of Awareness (sati)
4: The ability of Concentration (samādhi)
5: The ability of Understanding (pañña)

All these fine abilities culminate in the Deathless Destination,
which is their final goal, home, purpose, and resulting effect...
When having seen, known, understood, directly experienced,
fully realized and touched this through wisdom, then one is
quite beyond all doubt, uncertainty, perplexity and confusion!


The Ability to See forms is similar to the ability to Understand ideas!
