The Four Sublime States

Between good and pure are the four sublime states as expounded by the Lord Buddha. Abide in the four sublimes states equally. They are your mental wealth to overcome any defilements. Cultivate in these qualities as they serve towards your mental, emotional and physical well being. They help put you in good mental states so that you can instill inner peace & harmony, joy & happiness, calmness & sweetness to experience divine bliss.   

The Four Paths to Wisdom

According to Venerable Kai Zhou, there are four paths to acquiring wisdom. Some people acquire it the easy way and some acquire it through the hard way. I believe that karma and present diligence plays a large part in this.  If one has good karma and is diligent in one's practice, one can achieve a faster realization. The most important thing to have is right view, followed by right effort and right mindfulness to follow-through.
