(Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta - 97)
And what, bhikkhus, is Right Effort? Here (in this teaching), bhikkhus, a bhikkhu generates an intention, makes
effort, rouses energy, applies his mind, and strives ardently
to prevent the arising of evil, unwholesome states of mind
that have not yet arisen. He generates an intention, makes
effort, rouses energy, applies his mind, and strives ardently
to abandon evil, unwholesome states of mind that have arisen. He generates an intention, makes effort, rouses
energy, applies his mind, and strives ardently to attain
wholesome states of mind that have not yet arisen. He
generates an intention, makes effort, rouses energy, applies
his mind, and strives ardently to maintain the wholesome
states of mind that have arisen, to prevent their lapsing, to
increase them, to cause them to grow, and to completely
develop them. This, bhikkhus, is called Right Effort.
