Description
Kokoro: Japanese Wisdom for a Life Well Lived
Join Japanologist Beth Kempton on a journey through rural Japan in search of answers to life's biggest questions. After two devastating losses, Beth embarks on a pilgrimage to the deep north of Japan, hiking ancient forests, watching the moon rise over mountains of myth, and encountering wise teachers along the way.
This book invites you to cultivate stillness and contentment in an ever-changing world, exploring the concept of the kokoro, a profound Japanese term representing the intelligent heart, feeling mind, and embodied spirit of every human being. By learning to live guided by the light in your kokoro, everything changes, and anything is possible.
