English translation of "Abhidhamma in Daily Life" by Professor Ko Lay. Revised by Sayadaw U Silananda, International Theravada Buddhist Missionary University, Yangon, 1999...

Here ends the account of thirteen cetasikas which are like salt that can be put into dishes tasty or insipid, These cetasikas associate with kusala cittas as well as akusala cittas. May all readers of this book cultivate chanda and viriya and earnest cetana to the highest degree on the kusala path. May I spend my time always performing wholesome deeds with samma chanda and viriya in every future existence. May all my acquaintances be endowed with cetana (goodwill) samma chanda (moral desire) and viriya (diligent effort) at all times.

Cetasikas can associate with either good or bad cittas as the case may be. Cetasikas influence the mind. So let no person live in laziness, in forgetfulness. Instigate yourself by strong will till you attain Nibbána. Every good cetasika can be developed in your mind if you foster kusala chanda.
