There are two forces within every person — like two bottles of milk sitting side by side.
One bottle represents virtue: Precept, Concentration, Wisdom. It is the protective foundation that guides us toward truth and goodness. The other represents destruction: Greed, Anger, Delusion. Left unchecked, these harm us and those around us.
Everyone possesses both capacities. The question is not which one exists inside you — they both do. The question is which one you consciously choose to cultivate.
True cultivation requires meditation and mental training, not merely external techniques or rituals. Turn inward. Recognize your negative tendencies — but do not feed them. Develop wisdom and virtue instead, one small choice at a time.
