Right Thoughts means to think three kinds of thoughts: (i) thoughts of renunciation or thoughts which do mot have lustful desires (ii) thoughts of goodwill to others which are opposed to illwill (iii) thoughts of harmlessness as opposed to cruelty 3. Right Speech deals with refraining from falsehood such as telling lies or not telling the truth ; sladering or saying bad about other people; harsh words and frivolous talks such as gossiping. 4. Right Action deals with refraining from killing, stealing and sexual misconduct. 5. Right Livelihood deals with the five kinds of trades which should be aboided inorder to lead a noble life. They are trading in arms(weapons), living beings, flesh(breeding animals for slaughter), intoxication drinks, and poison. 6. Right Effort has four parts: (i) to try to stop evil thoughts that have arisen (ii) to prevent evil thoughts from arising (iii) to try to develop unrisen good thoughts (iv) to try to continue good thoughts that have arisen. 7. Right Mindfulness is also fourfold. It is mindfulness of the body, mindfulness of sensations, mindfulness of thoughts passing through the mind and mindfulness of Dhamma. 8. Right Concentration is the one-pointedness of the mind which stays on one object as opposed to the distracted mind which jumps from one thing to another. The eight factors can be grouped into three smaller groups as follows; Sila(marality) Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood Samadhi(concentration) Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration Panna(wisdom) Right Understanding, Right Thoughts Sila, Samadhi and Panna are the three stages on the Path to mental purity whose object is Nibbana. These stages are described in a beautiful verse: To cease from evil, To do what is good. To cleanse one's mind: This is the advice of all the Buddhas. 탐내지 말고 속이지 말며, 갈망하지 말고 남의 덕을 가리지도 말며, 혼탁과 미혹을 버리고 세상의 온갖 애착에서 벗어나, 무소의 뿔처럼 혼자서 가라. |
