  2. Right intention: Intend renunciation, goodwill, and harmlessness.
  3. Right speech: Avoid lying, division, abuse, and idle chatter.
  4. Right action: Avoid killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct.
  5. Right livelihood: Earn without causing harm.
  6. Right effort: Prevent and abandon unskillful states; develop skillful ones.
