What is the Eightfold Path?

The Eightfold Path is the Buddha’s guide to living in a way that leads toward enlightenment and the end of suffering. It includes practices such as right understanding, right speech, and right mindfulness. It is not a geographic route or a specific school of Buddhism, so the correct choice is “a guide explaining the qualities and practices needed to reach enlightenment.”
