The Eight-Fold Path The Noble Eightfold Path is one of the principal teachings of Buddhism. It is used to develop insight into the true nature of reality and to eradicate greed, hatred, and delusion. The Noble Eightfold Path is the fourth of the Buddha's Four Noble Truths; the first element of the Noble Eightfold Path is, in turn, an understanding of the Four Noble Truths. It is also known as the Middle Path or Middle Way. All eight elements of the Path begin with the word "right". These denote completion, togetherness, and coherence, and can also suggest the senses of "perfect" or "ideal." In Buddhist symbolism, the Noble Eightfold Path is often represented by means of the dharma wheel, whose eight spokes represent the eight elements of the path.
