Eightfold Path
Ethics, wisdom, meditation
There is one truth. If you’re headed the right way, it doesn’t matter which road you take.
The eight steps of the Middle Way fall into three parts: ethics, wisdom and meditation.
Ethics: tell the truth, do good. Live with dignity, don’t deceive, don’t harm others.
Wisdom: good intentions and the ability to see through the illusion. The clues are left for you, but you have to follow them yourself.
Meditation: the skill of stepping back from the film reel. You watch the movie without mistaking yourself for the actor. You notice there is no spoon: your suffering is made by your own perception.
