The journey began as a child when my uncle took me to a Buddhist church for a service. Since I was initially attended a Baptist church, Buddhism seemed very strange. As a teen, I read Hermann Hesse’s, “Siddhartha”, which is loosely based upon Siddhartha Gautama, the prince who was to become Buddha. On KPFK radio, they had shows that featured talks by Alan Watts, which described aspects of Buddhism. It was probably one of those talks which said that “Buddha taught the Middle Way”. Every since, that has been the focus of the journey…. what is the Middle Way? This blog tries to describe what was learned.
More recently, TM began a “Journey of 1000 Days”, which is mentioned in a post on this blog. Since this type of journey is basically an “impossible” task, Middleway decided a worthy task would be to help to save the world. The year 2012 culminates the 1000 day journey.
