1 Noble Eightfold Path Buddhism: The Means

2 The Eight Fold Path

3 The Eightfold Path The Noble Eightfold Path is the core of Buddhist practice and lifestyle. It is a guide to life, with it’s basis in the central teachings of the Four Noble Truths (It IS the Fourth Noble Truth [Magga]). Split into three sections: Wisdom, Morality, and Meditation. Not a step by step guide. All should be practiced simultaneously. All ‘stages’ are interconnected. It is seen as the ‘Way’ to achieve enlightenment. See: The Path (Dhammapada)
