In Advayavada Buddhism, the Noble Eightfold Path is interpreted dynamically as an ongoing, autonomous, non-prescriptive, investigative and creative process of progressive insight reflecting in human terms overall existence advancing over time.
By following the Noble Eightfold Path thus you get in tune with wondrous overall existence advancing over time; sorrow, doubt and remorse immediately start disappearing; and your life soon gathers new impetus.
Last week's ASP subject was the First Step on the Noble Eightfold Path: our very best (samyak, samma) insight into the circumstances of our own life at the present moment.
This week's subject is therefore the Second Step on the Noble Eightfold Path: our very best (samyak, samma) determination in view of our personal situation at this time.
The purpose of the ASP is that we study and discuss the meaning and implications of the weekly subject particularly in the context of whatever we ourselves are presently doing or are concerned with, or about, such as our health, relationships, work, study, and our place and responsibilities in the family, group, sangha, society at large, etc.
Tip: Write down this week's subject (make a plan!) in your pocket diary!
