There is no "Law of the Eightfold Path" they are suggestions that one can incorporate into their lives to diminish pain in their lives. There's not a "Thoushalt not..." in them.The middle path is simply a statement that extremes in lifestyle are not the way to achieve learning of how to live life. The Buddha was once a fabulously wealthy prince and at another time a starving wandering mendicant. Neither provided the understanding he needed. The Middle Path of "enough" provided him with the grounding to find his answers.
