Harmony lies not in extremes, but in the balance between them.

The Doctrine of the Mean, attributed to Zisi, the grandson of Confucius, is one of the core texts of Confucian philosophy. It explores the path to moral development, societal harmony, and spiritual balance by embracing moderation, reflection, and alignment with nature.

This elegant and thought-provoking classic teaches how to live a virtuous life—by following the Middle Way—a concept that has shaped Chinese ethics, governance, and cultural tradition for over two millennia.

💬 "A guiding light in turbulent times—this text teaches how to walk the path of virtue without veering to extremes."
