In our practice we are concerned with process. We do not focus on beginnings and ends. The practice is the goal. The process is not born or destroyed, not absolutely pure or impure, does not increase or decrease. In itself, the practice does not have much meaning. What matters is what we do with it. Therefore, we do say that through our practice afflictions will decrease and wisdom will increase. These are just convenient explanations to give us a sense of purpose.
