Blog #4: The Buddha Way

Peace, everybody. I just got home from a family trip to Chicago (which is not really important in this discussion), and today I am now trying to learn the basic ways of Buddha, which are the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. Here are the basics of Buddhism for those who just got into spirituality.

Four Noble Truths

1. Life is suffering

2. Attachment is the origin of suffering

3. Realization that attaining the path of non-attachment is possible

4. Practice of going to the path of non-attachment

The Noble Eightfold Path

1. Right view

2. Right intention

3. Right speech

4. Right action

5. Right livelihood

6. Right effort 

7. Right mindfulness

8. Right concentration

What I'm trying to do is to actually practice the attainment of the Buddha through these practices. I am indeed out of balance, and so I am trying to reclaim my balance so I can become spiritually, mentally, and even physically rich.
