What Is Buddhism?

If someone asks “what is Buddhism?” you can answer “practicing the Eightfold Path.”

What is the Eightfold Path?

Proper View, Proper Intention, Proper Speech, Proper Action, Proper Livelihood, Proper Effort, Proper Mindfulness, and Proper Concentration.

This Path is not meant to be followed in sequential order. We don't work on one step and them move onto the next. They are all practice simultaneously. Each step along the Path contains all the others.
