Perfect harmony between the extremes of Duality!!!!!
[https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WLHM1c83Cpc](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WLHM1c83Cpc) Bhagvad Gita Chapter 6 Verse 16 My understanding of this: The Bhagavad Gita emphasizes that a yogi must avoid extremes in all aspects of life, whether in eating, sleeping, working, or resting. Luxury and austerity are two ends of a spectrum, and neither leads to true peace or self-realization. Overindulgence or deprivation of any kind creates conflict between the mind and body, hindering spiritual growth. Proper food, adequate rest, balanced activity, and a joyful mind are essential for success in yoga. The Gita reminds us that harmony is found in moderation – in holding the golden mean. The world exists in duality, and the essence of meditation is to find the space where both extremes coexist. It is about being fully aware of both, yet unaffected by either. To simply exist and observe without judgment or interference is the ultimate state of balance. But for this state to be achieved, our actions – eating, sleeping, and working – must also reflect this balance. When life aligns in one harmonious direction, the conflict between mind and body dissolves, paving the way for true awareness and inner peace. As the Gita suggests, ignorance, fickleness, jealousy, laziness, and excessive attachment are the obstacles that disrupt this balance. To succeed as a yogi or even in daily life, one must let go of these distractions, focus on living in harmony, and allow the body and mind to move together toward a common goal.
