By performing an act of body, speech or mind as the outcome of oneâs volition, one also creates a possibility to act in a similar way in future. One, so to speak, lays foundations for creating a way of behaving, a habit or a tendency. In other words, one adds some new or strengthens some old feature of oneâs personality, perpetuating thereby oneâs state of conditioned existence and determining the quality of oneâs future character.
