Ajahn Brahm elaborates upon the meaning of a quote of the Buddha from the Dhammapada: “To refrain from what is wrong, to cultivate the good, and to purify the mind. This is the teaching of all the Buddhas”. Whilst it’s a simple quote it sums up what we are trying to do by practicing Buddhism very concisely. Ajahn Brahm explains the meaning of this stanza by explaining what it means to do what is good.
