Berget Jelane gave the tenth talk in a eleven-week series titled "Ten Perfections", on the parami of Wisdom. Wisdom is broader than knowledge, also encompassing compassion. Three characteristics of wisdom are: understanding impermanence (anicca), suffering (dukkha), and emptiness, or non-self.

Mudita, or sympathetic joy, is the third quality of the Brahma Viharas. It is expressing gladness for the happiness, joy, or success of someone else. This practice enhances the opening of our hearts. In addition, when we feel happiness for someone else, we actually increase our own happiness. Hindrances to mudita include our envy, our selfishness, our judgment, and our comparing mind.
