"This is the beautiful, freeing razor’s edge of emptiness. Emptiness does not fall to extremes. It allows us to avoid the extreme of affirming things as solid, self-defined or objective. This opens a sense of spaciousness to engage with things in new ways. At the same time, emptiness allows us to avoid the extreme of denying things altogether. We are thereby still able to enjoy things and what can be done with them, while avoiding the angst, despair and frustration that come from seeing them as utterly nothing. Because emptiness avoids both extremes, it is often called the middle way." —Greg Goode and Tomas Sandler Emptiness and Joyful Freedom
