Sasanarakkha Buddhist Sanctuary Retreat Zoom Q&A Groups A+B 14 January 2023 (1:45:20-1:46:21)

Yogi: How are the paramis (qualities to be perfected) related to the 5 Spiritual Faculties?

Sayadaw: A simple definition of parami is whatever good we did yesterday has become the parami for today – you can say that a parami is the result or momentum of a wholesome mind.

There are the 10 paramis and if we’re cultivating these wholesome qualities we’re growing them.
