high-definition creative commons posters depicting Energy (Viriya)based on the Great Chronicles of the Buddhas together with further information.
Energy should be applied uniformly to all tasks, like a lion hunting small or large prey. Right effort involves preventing evil, abandoning arisen evil, generating good, and maintaining good. Eleven factors develop energy including reflecting on the dangers of the lower realms, the benefits of effort, honoring alms, and associating with industrious people. Spiritual urgency from knowledge serves as the main foundation. Proper mental attitude determines whether energy becomes wholesome or unwholesome.
