Но как достичь освобождения, нирваны? Об этом говорит Четвертая Благородная Истина  — истина о пути (марга), ведущем к прекращению страданий — то есть о Благородном Восьмеричном Пути (арья аштанга марга). Первый этап включает в себя две ступени, остальные — по три, всего восемь ступеней.

Слово «буддизм» создано европейцами в XIX веке. Сами буддисты называют свою религию просто Дхармой (Закон, Учение) или Буддхадхармой (Учением Будды).
