Wabi
Of all the words in all the languages of the world, the one I love best is the Japanese term, wabi. It refers to a captivating work of art with a distinctive, beautiful flaw that embodies the idiosyncratic humanity of its creator. An aqua groove in an otherwise perfectly green ceramic pot may give it wabi. A skilled blues singer who intentionally wails out of pitch for a moment may be demonstrating wabi. Wabi is rooted in the idea that perfection is a kind of death. You, my soulfully imperfect friend, may be full of wabi at this very moment. Find out how, please, and explore it with your wildest heart. If you're so moved, send testimony about your encounter with wabi to zenpride@freewillastrology.com. |
