"126. Q. What do you mean by that word: what is this Noble Eight-fold Path? A. The eight parts of this path are called angas. They are: 1. Right Belief ; 2. Right Thought; 3. Right Speech; 4. Right Action; 5. Right Means of Livelihood; 6. Right Exertion; 7. Right Remembrance and Self-discipline; 8. Right Concentration of Thought. The man who keeps these angas in mind and follows them will be free from sorrow and ultimately reach salvation."
