C1 Expression 正式

एक संतुलन बनाना

ek santulan banana

strike a balance

意思

To find a way to combine different things harmoniously.

🌍

文化背景

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.
