Middle Way Philosophy: 1 Introductory video

This is the first video in the Middle Way Philosophy introductory course.

Some suggested reflection questions:

  1. How far does the Middle Way reflect your own intuitions?
  2. Can you find examples in your own experience where you have practised the Middle Way?
  3. What other beliefs or ideas in your own background does it best relate to?
  4. What does it most challenge in your own beliefs and ideas?

One thought on “Middle Way Philosophy: 1 Introductory video

  1. Greetings,

    I trust that you are centred in happiness.

    I have an MA in Buddhist Ethics, & I consider my viewpoint to be concordant to Madhyamaka. I think that I comprehend Arya Nagarjuna fairly well, however mind-bending it can be. It makes sense to me. It’s not ‘common sense’, simply because many people do not sense it: Madhyamaka phenomenology does not make sense to ontological thinking that demands ‘beginnings’ & ‘endings’. I am comfortable with what came before & what comes after, & so forth.

    I have just ‘randomly’ found this website, by entering ‘Madhyamaka is not Buddhism’ as a search term, which was obviously preconditioned by my thinking, & so forth.

    I shall explore this site.

    May all beings actualise equanimity.

    Best regards,

    Pete
