Buddhism taught me something about diet that yoga alone couldn't.
The Middle Way isn't compromise, it's integration. Not extremes but wisdom about what actually serves life.
What two truths are you learning to hold at once?

Gautam Buddha’s spiritual journey took a crucial turn when he transitioned from extreme asceticism to the Middle Path.
✨ This realization was not just personal but a landmark moment in spiritual thought.

1/n Jigokaraku
I just started to watch this newish anime, "Hell's Paradise/Jigokaraku" and I find it really, really interesting. Not so much for setting, or mission, or action scenss (the action is intereasting tho along with how the characters solve problems...or ignore them).

The story revolves around Gabimaru, who is a top-level merciless criminal who is known as "The Hollow".
I'll explain tags I used.

Without #confidence, there can be no external progress. And without #humility, there can be no internal progress.
Is there a contradiction at the core of the human condition? Maybe. Well OK, yes! But then, bing humans, we are inherently driven to circumvent contradictions. But how? #Balance, of course.
#Buddha (563-400 BCE)—who proclaimed, in no uncertain terms, that he was not a "god" but a philosopher, a teacher—taught that "majjhimā paṭipadā" (a balanced #MiddlePath in Pāli) is more often than not the optimal path.
Following the Middle Path is not to be confused with being a fence-sitter or being a middling, however. An adherent of the Middle Path is philosophically resolute to hold a fair, balanced perspective. This, then, is the foundation of #logic.
