    The Four Noble Truths describe suffering, its cause, its end, and the path to end it. The Eightfold Path has three divisions - wisdom, morality, and meditation. It consists of right understanding, thought, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and concentration. Whoever understands dependent arising also understands suffering, its arising, cessation, and the path to end it. Nagarjuna states there is no difference between samsara and nirvana or nirvana and samsara.
