and you realize that you are completely interdependent with the world, then the light goes off. Where it's like, if your environment is shaping your experience of reality, then you need to adopt the behaviors and shape the environment that fosters health and well-being.

Yeah, no mud, no lotus, right? But I think this is the interesting thing. It's a very astute question. Because what are you trying, what's the goal, right? What is well-being and human efflorescence, really? And what I began to put my thumb on is that every healthy system clusters towards the middle. Every imprimatur of health.

well-being is an ability for an organism or a system to find balance or the middle. So again, this is very Buddhist in some ways, like the philosophy of Buddhism is Madhyamaka, the middle way. Now, initially, that was sort of like a middle way between asceticism and hedonism, but really was the avoidance of extremes. Now, if you look at economics, for example, I'll get back to your question.

I'm headed there slowly. But what is the healthiest economic system? It's one with a thriving middle class. It looks like a bell curve where the distribution of wealth is somewhere in the middle, right? What is the healthiest... ecological system. So one with lots of biodiversity, with a balance of different species, right?

And they just fight amongst themselves and nature selects for the best of them and they just kind of just continue to proliferate and grow and improve. What is the best, healthiest political system? One where there's a middle, right, where you can find common ground and cooperation. Not much to be found at this very moment, right?

So, again, you look at what is the unhealthiest system, one with very polarized extremes. You know, what's the healthiest system? One with strong middle. Like you look at your meditation practice. What is the focus of psychological health? The ability to center yourself, to always move yourself back to the middle, to this kind of unstable place in the middle. But if you look at human physiology...

The middle is called homeostasis. So the body is riddled with mechanisms that engineer for the middle, for the Goldilocks zone. If you look at like temperature regulation in the body, it's like you get really, really, really cold. What do you do? You start to shiver, right? And your body thermoregulates and you move yourself back into that little warm porridge of 98.6.
