Kokoro no sentaku, inochi no sentaku
I came across this phrase while looking at the kintsugi process.
Kokoro means heart
Sentaku means to wash or clean
Inochi means life
So it’s said, “wash your heart, wash your life”
The latter phrase though, “inochi no sentaku” is commonly known as “wash off the dust of life”.
Living life can cause us to to get dusty, or a little dirty going through the things we go through. Some things we choose to let in and some we don’t, but still, our hearts become contaminated and tainted with the cares of this world.
Every now and then we need wash it all off. A sabbatical from it all. A good soak in the onsen, or go for a time unplugged, off the grid. Disconnect from the world and plug into the things that really matter, the things that sustain you:
Relax and take a little time to talk with yourself and re-energize your self by washing your heart, and washing your life!
