- Yūgen 幽玄, il fascino dell’insondabile. Quello che provi immaginandoti nel tempo, oltre che nello spazio.
- Karumi 軽み, la leggerezza d’animo. Di quando ti rotoli sul prato come da bambino, senza preoccuparti d’altro.
- Shiori しおり, il fascino che si irradia verso il lettore. Come l’aroma di caffè il lunedì mattina.
E voi dove ritrovate queste caratteristiche?-
- Yūgen 幽玄, the unknowns charm. The one you feel seeing yourself in time instead of in space.
- Karumi 軽み, the light mind. When you roll in the grass like a child, carelessly.
- Shiori しおり, the charm radiating toward the reader. Like the coffee smell the monday morning.
Where do you find these?

Thank you!! It’s the first time I read something so complex translated in to something so human, and poetic.

Ok! I’ll give it a try.
Sabi: it lingers inside the porous walls of my tiny Kyusu which, in these years, hosted litres of Genmaichas, Hojichas and perhaps even some robuster fellows.
Wabi: my first iron-kettle. Retired from a posh teapot status, it embraced a more wabi lifestyle instead. I’m not steeping tea in it anymore, but it still comes to life, from time to time, as a pop-up flower vase.
Mono no aware, what a nostalgia! I’ve heard it so many times from my Japanese professor that I can even recall his voice and intonation while he’s pronouncing this word.

Oh no! XDD I was thinking about learning japanese… or chinese, After all, half of the books i read has a chinese or japanese version on each page

What scared me off the Chinese language was its tricky pronunciation (the notorious “ma”) plus, studying Japanese is less mainstream, because the future is hardly Japanese but surely Chinese. 😄
