YOGA IM BUDDHISMUS
*
> The Eight-Fold Path Of Bhagwan Buddha <
Compiled by: Prabhat Tiwari
Lord Buddha was a contemporary of Maharshi Patanjali, the propagator of the ‘Yoga Darshana’. Just as Patanjali suggested that yoga has eight steps (ashtanga yoga) with a final goal as ‘samadhi’, Buddha too has suggested eight steps to ‘samadhi’. – Editor
Buddha says, “Wrongs are many, right is one, so how can the right be against the wrong? Right is that which is not your invention. It is already there. If you go away from it you are wrong, if you come close to it you are right. The closer you are, the more right you are. One day, when you are exactly home, you are perfectly right.”
Samyak and samadhi both start with the same root sam (equal). Samyak is the step towards samadhi. So seven steps ultimately lead to the final step ‘samadhi’. ‘Samadhi’ means – now everything has fallen in tune with existence.
These eight steps are just indicators of how to come to that ultimate courage where you take the quantum leap and you simply disappear. When the self disappears, the Universal Self arises.
> The Noble Eightfold Path < describes the way to the end of suffering, as it was laid out by > Siddhartha Gautama < . SiddhÄrtha Gautama (Sanskrit, m., सिद्धार्थ गौतम, SiddhÄrtha Gautama; Pali: Siddhattha Gotama) was a spiritual teacher in the north eastern region of the Indian subcontinent who founded Buddhism.
It is a practical guideline to ethical and mental development with the goal of freeing the individual from attachments and delusions; and it finally leads to understanding the truth about all things. Together with the Four Noble Truths it constitutes the gist of Buddhism. Great emphasis is put on the practical aspect, because it is only through practice that one can attain a higher level of existence and finally reach Nirvana. The eight aspects of the path are not to be understood as a sequence of single steps, instead they are highly interdependent principles that have to be seen in relationship with each other.

Freudvoll ist die Erscheinung der Buddhas. Freudvoll ist die Unterrichtung in der wahren Lehre (dharma). Freudvoll ist die Versammlung des Sangha. Freudvoll ist die schlichte Einfachheit derer, die sich versammelt haben.“ Blessed is the Way of Buddha. Blessed is the Truth of Dhamma. Blessed is the Life of Sangha. Blessed are the efforts of earnest disciples.
