Wabi-Sabi

This book offers a comprehensive look at the Japanese world view known as "Wabi-Sabi" and how it can be used to change one's perception of life and find happiness in an imperfect life. There's no denying that modern living has afforded us lots of good things with all manner of convenience. Today, we can stay cool no matter how hot it gets outside, thanks to our air-conditioned rooms. In seconds, we can talk face-to-face with someone halfway across the world, thanks to the Internet. So why are there so many of us who feel disconnected and unhappy? If you've grown tired of keeping up with the mental and emotional demands of modern living, then perhaps it's time to turn to age-old pearls of wisdom for advice and gain a new perspective about life. This book is your portal to one such wisdom as the author invites you to look beyond the cultural tradition and Japanese aesthetics of Wabi-Sabi and unlock a new dimension for perceiving the world and seeking one's place in it. Travel back in time and explore the Zen roots of Wabi-Sabi and how it has taught generations of people to find beauty amidst the many imperfections of life. You will learn that Wabi-Sabi isn't so much about Japanese culture, but life in general. It teaches people to simplify things and recognize what is truly important to them. Defined as the sum of all wisdom gained by generations of Japanese artisans, poets, and philosophers, Wabi-Sabi calls on you to step on the brakes of your fast-paced lifestyle, smell the flowers and recognize that you may have been too hard on yourself. While it's easy to dismiss Wabi-Sabi as a Japanese preference for aesthetics, you will learn that it has so much more to offer. In truth, it's a world view that can be applied to just about every facet of life, from living with nature to building a family, to accepting failures and dying with dignity. Wabi-Sabi preaches the truth that many people refuse to acknowledge - that our lives don't have to be perfect to be happy.
