In the balance of embodiment, in the pause between cognition and articulation, between impression and reaction, is the space where true responsiveness can occur. It is here that the Enlightenment Factors arise.

Fundamentals of the Dharma: Wise Intention

Wise intention is the energy that moves all spiritual practices forward. We mistakenly think it is our willpower, but it is always and only our intention. There are two expressions of intention: the primary intention associated with the longing to be free and the secondary intention for gain and acquisition. The secondary is formed by the mind from the primary intention, and that is the reason we believe that satisfaction can come through desire. The mind tells us that. For the energy to be reinvested back into the primary we have to prove to ourselves that secondary gains will never be truly fulfilling. That is what is left for many of us to do.
