In this look at the Four Noble Truths, we turn to the most practical element — the path forward.

The Fourth Noble Truth teaches that if we want to reduce suffering and build a more peaceful life, we need to develop certain skills. These are not abstract ideas, but habits of mind and behaviour that can be cultivated through deliberate effort. This is what the Buddha’s Eightfold Path offers.

Each part of the Eightfold Path begins with the word “Right.” Here, “Right” is best understood as skilful or wise — not moralistic or correct in an absolute sense. These eight areas are:

Right Understanding
Right Intentions or Thought
Right Speech or Communication
Right Actions
Right Livelihood
Right Effort
Right Mindfulness
Right Concentration or Focus

Together, they offer a practical framework for living with greater awareness, integrity and clarity — qualities that matter just as much in business and family life as they do in personal reflection.
