In an increasingly fast-paced and chaotic world, we can perhaps turn to ancient wisdom for guidance in finding inner harmony and balance. New Acropolis main centre hosted a talk titled “Finding my Balance : Lessons from Buddha” on July 9, 2023 . Using stories from the timeless teachings of The Buddha, the speakers proposed, balance is not something we find, but what we can create. Emphasising the value of self awareness, speakers conducted few practical exercises which allowed participants to explore value of concepts such as the “right tension” and the “middle path “which can help us cultivate a sense of equanimity in the face of life’s challenges. Being fully present in the moment, reflecting on ourselves and having a clear sense of purpose may guide us towards developing better inner and outer balance .
