Finding Your Way - The Eightfold Path
Sathi outlines the Eightfold Path showing how each steps works with the others and highlighting the negative and positive approaches to each step. To practice the Eightfold Path, you don't have to claim yourself as a Buddhist. You only have to be a human being. Any human being can practice this and experience the results.

The Noble Eightfold Path
- Right understanding (Samma ditthi)
- Right thought (Samma sankappa)
- Right speech (Samma vaca)
- Right action (Samma kammanta)
- Right livelihood (Samma ajiva)
- Right effort (Samma vayama)
- Right mindfulness (Samma sati)
- Right concentration (Samma samadhi)
These eight areas are not meant to be followed and practiced one after the other in the numerical order. Instead, use them together, as much as possible, based on who you are as a person and who you want to be. Each of these areas folds into the others forming a circle of full living.
