In [[Buddhism]], '''The Noble Eightfold Path''' is declared to be the way that leads to the end of suffering, and [[nirvana]].

As the name indicates, there are eight elements in the Noble Eightfold Path, and these are divided into three basic categories<ref>In the [[Pali canon]], these three basic categories (Pali: ''khandha'') are identified by the [[Bhikkhuni]] Dhammadinna in the "Culavedalla Sutta" ([[Majjhima Nikaya|MN]] 44)[http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.044.than.html] although in this sutta the categories are ordered: ''sīla'', ''samādhi'' and ''paññā''.  These three basic categories are also similar to those articulated by the Buddha in his [[Threefold Training]], as recorded in the [[Anguttara Nikaya]]'s ''Sikkha Sutta'' ([[Anguttara Nikaya|AN]] 3:88[http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/an/an03/an03.088.than.html] and AN 3:89[http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/an/an03/an03.089.than.html]).</ref> as follows:
