We should not neglect anyone of these ten perfections, we need all of them. We need sincerity in the abandonment of defilements and that is the perfection of truthfulness. We should remember to think of other people’s wrongs with loving- kindness. We also need the perfection of determination, the firm, unshakable determination to practise all kinds of kusala in order to reach the goal. We may have sincerity in our wish to abandon defilements, but at times we lack determination, we are not firm enough in our determination to abandon defilements. We need the perfection of determination for being sincere in our practice to eradicate defilements.
We need the perfection of patience, that is, endurance. We need to develop all the perfections and this is the only way to have wise attention to whatever we experience, to develop panna.
