'Parables of the Middle Way' combines fiction and commentary to
provide various imaginative ways into the core themes of Middle Way
Philosophy already developed in Robert M Ellis's other books. The
stories are either original, or adapted from a range of sources:
philosophical, Buddhist and Christian. They include the story of a
ship caught in a strait between two intractably opposed ports, an
inside-out version of Plato's cave, a set of variations of the Good
Samaritan suggesting all the other ways of doing good, and the
early life of the Buddha transposed to eighteenth century England.
Robert M. Ellis is the founder of the Middle Way Society, author of
'Migglism' and of the 'Middle Way Philosophy' series. He has a
Ph.D. in Philosophy as well as a long-standing interest in fiction,
and is devoted to developing new and more adequate ways of thinking
that can be applied in practice.
