Kusala

Kusala is a Buddhist term meaning "skillful" or "wholesome" actions, thoughts, or mental states that promote well-being and reduce suffering. It involves behaviors rooted in kindness, compassion, honesty, and self-control. Practicing kusala helps individuals cultivate positive qualities, leading to inner peace and better relationships with others. Unlike harmful actions (akusala), kusala creates a foundation for spiritual growth and moral development, contributing to a happier and more harmonious life. In essence, kusala refers to acts that are morally good and supportive of personal and collective well-being.
