We embrace the moment as it is, not how we would like it to be. Just this, right here, right now.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWabi-sabi is valuing imperfection, impermanence, and the natural devolving of everything born or made. Just this, right here, right now, as is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eZen also teaches us to pay attention. The past is gone. The future is unknown. The only thing we have is this present moment. Meditation helps us to mindfully attend to this moment, just this breath, right here and right now. We learn to be where we are completely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur premise is that wabi-sabi, haiku, and zen all provide important lessons in many things, including selflessness, acceptance, non-discrimination, compassion, and self-compassion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Goodman Beck Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781936636013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.24h x 7.84w x 0.42d","brand":"Alan Gettis, Carl Genjo Bachmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43124515406005,"sku":"9781936636013","price":12.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_24a2032f-10a5-4d15-bb88-c5e16fb31d82.jpg?v=1694553687","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/embracing-life-as-it-is-lessons-from-wabi-sabi-haiku-and-zen-9781936636013","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
