The Middle Path
Buddha realises that there there ought to be a way of living between extremities of luxuries and mortality. One cannot submit life to the external crisis. To just live and accept yourself, it is important to be able to perceive others' thoughts and feelings. To be an ordinary human being is to be Buddha. Buddhism does not teach you to be special, bit ordinary - in a way that you are living with everyone else,not above or below.
A string of sitar too tight will break, while of too loose, will be incapable to produce any sound. In order to produce music, the string has to be tightened just enough - that is the essence of the middle path. That one needs to know just enough to not hurt others, but unite with the rhythm of the universe in order to experience resonance and happiness.
