Three Areas To Train In

There are three areas for us as Buddhists to train in:

1. Knowledge
2. Loving kindness
3. Ability

We must study the texts and reality to increase our knowledge and insight. We must also cultivate and enhance our love and compassion for others. Finally, we must increase the scope of our abilities to work for the benefit of others. These three aspects are commensurate to a buddha’s omniscience, love and power, as represented by the Lords of the Three Families, respectively, Manjushri, Chenrezig, Vajrapani.
