The Eightfold Path in Buddhism The Eightfold Path or the Noble Eightfold Path, the Noble Eightfold Path, which means the true path is divided into eight limbs, is the basic teaching mentioned in the Dao Truth. Right View 2. Right Thought 3. Right Speech 4. Right Action 5. Right Livelihood 6. Right Effort 7. Right Mindfulness 8. Right Concentration 8 branches of the Eightfold Path are closely related. On the path towards peace and happiness, we need to practice the Eightfold Path, mainly to forge our own body, speech, and mind. In Buddhism, the eight-fold path in the Eightfold Path is often symbolized by a drawing of a wheel with eight spokes. These include: Right View, Right Thought, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, and Right Concentration. 1. Right view Right view is the first branch of the path of liberation to peace. "Right" means upright, is correct, "Knowing" is seeing, perceiving, perceiving. "Right view" is understood as the correct and clear perception of wisdom. According to the Buddha, the first thing on the Noble Eightfold Path is to understand it correctly because it affects our present and future perception of the world view and human life. Right view doesn't just stop at "knowing" theory but it is also "understanding" to the end, putting "knowing" in our own experience. Like learning about the Four Noble Truths, we first have an overview of the four basic truths, but to really "absorb" we need to know clearly what is suffering, the practice, the cessation, and the path. So true understanding is understanding that all things existing in the world are born of cause and effect, nothing is permanent and it is always changing; Understand that there is cause and effect and karma; Aware of my existence, of everyone, everything at this moment; Aware of suffering, impermanence, non-self of all things... 2. Right thinking Right thinking is the second step of the Eightfold Path, which means right thinking, not contrary to the right. From right understanding (right view) makes us think right, understand that every journey has difficulties and pitfalls, but we still persevere and believe in our path. Right thinking is thinking, understanding the source of suffering for oneself and others is ignorance, greed - hatred - delusion. From understanding, we enter the path of practice and liberation for ourselves. 3. Right Speech The third branch of the Eightfold Path is right speech or true, straight speech. Right speech is not to lie, not to speak falsely, not to speak offensively, not to speak maliciously, not to speak vulgarly… On the way to peace, We must understand the power of words to affect ourselves and others. Why a criticism, whether right or wrong, can cause disappointment, anger, low self-esteem, but encouragement can "save" an entire person? Right speech is the practice of speaking truthfully, uprightly, gently, without bias, speaking simply, speaking praiseworthy, and speaking so as to open the door to enlightenment from the heart of each person... Right Action Right career means righteous wise action. Practicing right karma means doing good, not killing, not committing adultery, not stealing, doing what is right, respecting the lives of all living beings, not harming the profession, property, or position of others. do what is ethical... The origin of hatred, attachment, and cruelty is due to greed - hatred - delusion. So, When practicing doing good and righteous deeds, greed - hatred - delusion cannot arise, from which life is pure, and everyone around enjoys blessings. 5. Right Livelihood "Life" here means life, life. Buddhism upholds the equality of all beings, all lives. Therefore, Right Livelihood means doing a righteous, honest living profession, not exploiting, not infringing on the interests of others. This fifth factor in the Noble Eightfold Path encourages living a pure life, avoiding occupations that can create bad karma later on, such as: arms trade, human trafficking, butchers, selling poisons, selling animals to kill. harm eat meat… 6. Right effort "Tenuous effort" means diligent, trying hard, paying attention. Right effort means trying continuously, without discouragement, to focus on the right ideal that one is pursuing. The importance of Right Effort manifests itself in the fact that if we set many goals but do not persevere to the end, we will not be able to reap the fruits. Right effort is the practice of destroying bad habits and cultivating good things, practicing cultivating wisdom and merit, controlling oneself, speech, and thoughts so that they are right and upright. 7. Mindfulness "Mindfulness" means remembering, thinking. In Mindfulness, there are two factors: right mindfulness and right mindfulness. "Mindfulness" - means thinking about the past, while "Contemplation boredom" means observing the present, starting the future. Thus, "Mindfulness" is encouraging the practice of being aware of the present moment and focusing on that moment. For example, when we are eating rice we are aware that we are eating rice, when we are walking we are aware that we are walking… not acting disturbed by other factors. Many people eat rice but are not aware that they are eating rice because they are thinking about unfinished work, about anger in the afternoon... so eating rice again as if they are not eating rice but become an act of worthlessness. awake. 8. Right concentration "Concentration" here is understood as meditation, concentration of thoughts to practice. "Right Concentration" means focusing your mind on the right truth, benefiting yourself and others. On the journey to enlightenment of truth and happiness, we must really practice, practice continuously, not just rely on theory. When we achieve the state of concentration – fully focused on the goal, the object, our mind will see what we want.
