معنی
To find a way to combine different things harmoniously.
زمینه فرهنگی
The concept of 'Madhyam Marg' (The Middle Path) from Buddhism is a cultural precursor to this phrase. It encourages avoiding extremes. In modern Indian startups, 'Work-Life Balance' is often discussed using this exact phrase as a reaction to the 'hustle culture.' The 'Thali' is a physical representation of 'Santulan'—a balance of six tastes (Shadrasa). In joint families, the eldest daughter-in-law is often praised for her ability to 'strike a balance' between different family members' needs.
Use 'Ke Beech'
Always pair this phrase with '...के बीच' (...ke beech) to specify what you are balancing. It makes you sound much more fluent.
Not for Falling
Don't use this if you trip on the street. Use 'Apna balance khona' instead.
