The eight Buddhist practices in the Noble Eightfold Path are:[23][note 2]
Right Resolve: the giving up home and adopting the life of a religious mendicant in order to follow the path; this concept, states Harvey, aims at peaceful renunciation, into an environment of non-sensuality, non-ill-will (to loving kindness), away from cruelty (to compassion).[30] Such an environment aids contemplation of impermanence, suffering, and non-Self.[30]
Right Speech: no lying, no rude speech, no telling one person what another says about him, speaking that which leads to salvation;[23]
Right Conduct: no killing or injuring, no taking what is not given, no sexual acts.[23]
Right Livelihood: beg to feed, only possessing what is essential to sustain life;[23]
Right Effort: guard against sensual thoughts; this concept, states Harvey, aims at preventing unwholesome states that disrupt meditation.[30]
Right Mindfulness: never be absent minded, being conscious of what one is doing; this, states Harvey, encourages the mindfulness about impermanence of body, feeling and mind, as well as to experience the five aggregates (skandhas), the five hindrances, the four True Realities and seven factors of awakening.[30]
