Today there are two special events we are celebrating in our home. The first - beginning with the oldest - is the anniversary of Nagarjuna; an Indian adept, scholar & physician who established the Buddhist philosophical school known as the middle way.
Four hundred years after the Buddha past away; he appeared, a great adept whose heroic spiritual activity firmly established the path to transcendent wisdom, thus liberating countless disciples & promulgating the Mahayana, or Great Way. He came to be known as Nagarjuna. His appearance was predicted by the Buddha.
And thank goodness for that middle path approach. It is a golden rule that works - & it means , amongst many, many other things, that I can drink wine with no guilt attached, as long as I balance somewhere within that happy medium state.
Also making an appearance on this day two years ago, our own sweet Bodhi Kailash Tiga. Happy Birth-day beautiful boy...
