In an effort to understand the principles and gifts of wabi sabi, I’ve been snuggling with books on the subject for weeks.

Knowledge of wabi sabi has changed my life.


Wabi sabi resists simple definition. 

There is not a single story to explain wabi sabi.  

Wabi sabi is sensation. 

The gifts wabi sabi offer me, which I’m calling sensation, are the abilities to be open to and to appreciate beauty in any and all its forms. 

For me, this is the essence of wabi sabi.   

Special Note: The painter Francis Bacon was instrumental in developing this post. Bacon found story boring – his desire was to paint the essence. Bacon lived from 1909 to 1992.
  
I enjoyed the book Marina Mander’s bookshelf ate, (see Post 90): Interviews with Francis Bacon by David Sylvester.  

Thanks for exploring the mystery – Nicky Mendenhall
