  • Right Intention: The unselfish desire to realize enlightenment 
  • Right Speech: Using speech compassionately 
  • Right Action: Using ethical conduct to manifest compassion 
  • Right Livelihood: Making a living through ethical and no harmful means 
  • Right Effort: Cultivating wholesome qualities and releasing unwholesome qualities 
  • Right Mindfulness: Whole body-andmind awareness
