 Articles: The Middle Way - From The Way of Action
There is a Middle Way, O Bhikkbus, discovered by the Tathagata, a path which opens the eyes and bestows understanding, which leads to peace of mind, to the higher wisdom, to full enlightenment, to Nirvana.
In the same way, in-breathing and out breathing, work and rest are alternating states, and the presence of the one implies the existence, earlier or later in the illusion of time, of the other.
One way to achieve this peace of mind is to let go of either bank of the river and to be content, and it is a deep content, to flow with the stream.

 Authentic Portrait of the Middle Way
So the way we can prove nirvana does not truly exist is to work through the reasons in the song in a sequential way starting with the first reason.
Another way is to say that this is the way things are from the view of ultimate reality and from the standpoint of the abiding nature of samsara.
The way in which these three aspects is seen is by letting the mind settle into its nature, so the mind is not analyzed and the mind experiences clarity emptiness, bliss emptiness and non-conceptual emptiness.

 T. S. Eliot's Political 'Middle Way'   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
The notion of pursuing a via media, a "middle way," has meant less a third alternative than a comfort with the ambiguity and resistance to the dogmatism that defines both extremes.
Eliot’s was a transcendent "middle way," hearkening both backward and forward toward a medievalism that might effect healing precisely because it is not bound to a humanistic view of man and society.
The constant implication is that the via media to which he points, with its roots in the Middle Ages and its emphasis on human dignity and simplicity, is the only socio-political option that has taken into account, by clear-sighted examination, the problematic status of human nature.

The stupid way is for candidates who are uncomfortable with Bible Belt culture to try to “fit in” by talking about Jesus.

The Buddha asked a disciple: if you put a log in the river and it stays in the middle, not getting stuck on the left bank or on the right bank; if it doesn't sink, and if no one takes it out of the water, where does it go?
The log is analogous to meditation practice: if meditators aren't pulled to the left or right, if they don't sink, and if someone doesn't remove them from the path, they will without question have to reach supreme happiness, Nibbana, non-attachment, where there is no suffering, forever.
