Is middle path always the best? Is "non committal" (as I also learnt being a football defender) always good? Or by being non-committal, you are playing too safe to enjoy the tides of life?
Middle path is what even Siddhartha (Buddha) preached. So is by one of the great philosophers (I think Aristotle), when he advocates middle path. Ironically he is "extremely" into proposing middleness. Also he is proposing to be "extremely" in the middle. Isn't it self-negating, self-conflicting and self-defeating?
Should we really live a life without extremes ( extreme love, extreme emotion, extreme passion, extreme anger, extreme hunger, extreme poverty, and also extreme middleness)?
Also. we always have an easier option: to cease being a "thinking" thinker. Don’t control your thoughts, don’t try to give your thoughts a direction. Whatever comes to your mind and appeals you, is correct. Follow it and remain happy. But isn't this approach of unrestrained thoughts potentially dangerous for society? What are terrorists (or fanatics)? Simply put, they are products of uncontrolled extreme thinking process. Isn't it?
