Answer by Suminda Sirinath S. Dharmasena for What is right gifting?

There are 2 parts here

  • ornament of the mind
  • support of the mind

I would think ornament of the mind means to develop Beautiful Consciousness (Sobana). Develop Initial and Sustained contemplation on your action developing Calm. Do it with Metta, Karuna, Mudita and Upekkha. This way convert your citta into a Great Wholesome Mind (mahā-kusala cittas).

Supporting the mind is if the Mind is Prompted (this includes when you hold yourself back due to laziness or attachment) make it into an unprompted mind. Reinforce your understanding of Karma so your Mind is a Mind with the Right View.
