Noble Eightfold Path - 8 practices to free oneself from painful reincarnation leads to nirvana

In the Pali Canon's Bhavananuyutta sutta ("Mental Development Discourse", Anguttara Nikaya 7.67), the Buddha is recorded as saying (See image above).

The Buddhist path to liberation consists the Thirty Seven Factors of Enlightenment (Pali, sattatimsa bodhipakkhiya dhamma Ref). The most classical one is the Noble Eightfold Path, described in the Sutta Pitaka.

The Noble Eightfold Path is an early summary of the path of Buddhist practices leading to liberation from samsara, the painful cycle of rebirth, in the form of nirvana.

The Noble Eightfold Path was preached by the Buddha in his first Dharma teaching (Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta: Ref2). It is considered to be Marga (Pali: Magga, Ref4) among the Four Noble Truths (Ref3), and is also considered to be the specific content of the Middle Way.

The Eightfold Path consists of eight practices: 1) right view, 2) right resolve, 3) right speech, 4) right conduct, 5) right livelihood, 6) right effort, 7) right mindfulness, and 8) right samadhi ('meditative absorption or union'; alternatively, equanimous meditative awareness).

In early Buddhism, these practices started with understanding that the body-mind works in a corrupted way (right view), followed by entering the Buddhist path of self-observance, self-restraint, and cultivating kindness and compassion; and culminating in dhyana or samadhi, which reinforces these practices for the development of the body-mind.

八正道 (はっしょうどう)〜辛い輪廻転生から解放され、涅槃に導くための8つの修行

パーリ仏典の増支部 (ぞうしぶ、巴: ｱﾝｸﾞｯﾀﾗ･ﾆｶｰﾔ 7.67)『ﾊﾞｰｳﾞｧﾇﾕｯﾀ･ｽｯﾀ (精神発展論)』には、ブッダが次のように語ったと記録されている:

僧侶たちよ、自分の心を瞑想的に発展させること (バヴァナ) に専念しない僧侶は、「ああ、執着することなく私の心が汚れから解放されますように！」と願っても、その心は解放されない。それはなぜか。「彼は自らの心を発展させていないからだ」と言わざるを得ない。何を開発していないのか？マインドフルネスの四つの基礎(四念住)、四つの正しい努力(四正断)、四つの自在力(四神足)、五つの霊的能力(五根)、五つの霊力(五力)、七つの悟りの要素(七覚支)、八正道においてだ」。

仏教の解脱の道は、三十七の悟りの要素（三十七道品、巴: ｻｯﾀｰﾃｨﾑｻ･ﾎﾞｰﾃﾞｨﾊﾟｯｷｬｰ･ﾀﾞﾝﾏ 参照)で構成されている。最も古典的なものが、経蔵 (きょうぞう、巴: ｽｯﾀ･ﾋﾟﾀｶ)に記述されている八正道である。八正道は、輪廻の苦しみから解放され、涅槃に至る仏教の修行の道筋を初期にまとめたものである。

八正道はブッダが最初の説法（初転法輪: 参照2）において説いたとされる。四諦 (したい: 参照3)のうちでは道諦(どうたい 参照4)にあたり、ブッダの説いた中道(ちゅうどう)の具体的内容ともされる。

八正道は、①正しい見解(正見)、②正しい智慧(正思)、③正しい言葉(正語)、④正しい行い(正業)、⑤正しい生活(正命)、⑥正しい努力(正精進)、⑦正しい心構え(正念)、⑧正しい三昧(正定:「瞑想的吸収または結合」または「平静な瞑想的意識」)という8つの修行から構成されている。

初期仏教では、これらの修行は、身心が腐敗していることを理解すること (正見) から始まり、自戒、自制、親切と慈悲を養う仏道に入り、身心の発展のためにこれらの修行を強化するディヤーナまたは三昧 (さんまい、梵: ｻﾏｰﾃﾞｨ) に至る。
