Beginning Anew

Image may contain: outdoor

The Buddhist teaching on Beginning Anew is very clear: 
"The un-skillfulness comes from our mind, and the un-skillfulness can be transformed by our mind…” 
If there is light, there is enlightenment in your consciousness; there is a strong determination, the awareness that "This is something negative, this is something harmful… and I am determined not to allow it to happen again," and then the mind is transformed… And now, with your enlightenment, with your determination, you will never allow these conditions to come together again in order to repeat the same thing.
