This week’s theme is: The Abundant Middle-Way.

 

The Buddha in his last steps of awakening turned away from austerities and the practiced hardships he had endured. He did not turn back to the indulgences of his youth, but uncovered a kind and sensitive middle-way between a sense of self-importance and self-negation. The awakened one then invited others to a way of living between common extremes of views, states, and habitual actions.

 

This week we will walk the path of peace supporting the deep well-being and boundless heart of the middle-way.
