| | The Noble Eightfold Path in Advayavada Buddhism |
| | In Advayavada Buddhism the Path is understood, in other words, as the sure road to enlightenment. | | | And in Advayavada Buddhism, the Noble Eightfold Path is moreover seen, not as a means to become something in the future, but as a way to become as something in the here and now. | | | In most other forms of Buddhism, the Noble Eightfold Path is indeed made up of eight largely unrelated and prescriptive factors, often of very differing content, but always somebody else, a fellow human being, is telling you what to be and do. |
