RE: Nurturing Life As Preventative Medicine
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
My Dads philosophy or oft repeated motto was 'ya just gotta keep moving'. Live life, but moderately.. sage advice. I am reminded of my face and stomach hurting from laughing too much. As I read the first half I was thinking of how parallel this was to the middle way. Its no suprise that all these wise healers and teachers from various traditions arrived at same observation. I need his moderation advice stuck to my fridge. Love your response.

Maybe Siddhartha encountered some Chinese sages in the himalaya when he was off being a hermit....?......
