Gotama Intuits the Middle Way
Starting off Buddhist year 2569, I tell some of the story of the Buddha's search, looking at his rose-apple tree intuition of the Middle Way between the sensual indulgence of his wealthy upbringing and the bodily mortification of his ascetic years. Told the story of Sujātā and her offering that opened the Middle Way, and the nāga, forest and grass spirits, and all the beings who were part of Gotama finding the way.
