He said that, if most of us pause to reflect on the violence oftoday, we will realise that the root causes of these tragedies are related to the failure to observe Samma Sankappa, which comprise the Right View, the Right Intention, the Right Speech, the Right Action, the Right Livelihood, the Right Effort, the Right Mindfulness and the Right Concentration.
