The Eightfold Path - Fall Practice Period 2026
Right Action
Dharma Talk by Stephen Fulder
Saturday, October 31st
9:00 am - 11:00 am ET (New York)
Online
Stephen Fulder brings Right Action into focus. Right Action is about bringing our intentions into how we act. Traditionally the first precepts - refrain from killing, refrain from taking what is not freely given and refrain from sexual misconduct. In today’s world, we keep a broad perspective of our actions in mind as we consider our practice of the EIghtfold Path. Stephen Fulder brings a modern approach to his teachings on this ancient path.
“Our actions are our true belongings, not our beliefs, about the way to act. They are a clear indicator of whether we are walking the walk and not just talking the talk. The way to wake up to this is to attend to the impact of our actions, which can often set off a needed alarm bell”
- Koshin Paley Ellison
