Daishizen

The Japanese have always preferred contact with nature to the study of texts to understand the meaning of existence. Daishizen is a Japanese concept that takes us into this sacred aspect of the natural world. Translated as "powerful nature", daishizen allows us to embark on a path of spiritual transformation without going through the intellect, soaking up the powerful images and sensations that forests, fountains and gardens offer us. The shade of ancient pine trees, the ephemeral beauty of cherry blossoms, the secret whisper of a stream or the passage of clouds will allow us, through daishizen, to leave the ego aside and immerse ourselves in the depths of our being. In this delicate book, Nicolas Chauvat offers a sensory and meditative journey to the heart of daishizen through a delightful immersion in traditional Japanese philosophy. A spectacular work to recover harmony, overcome suffering and rediscover the magic of life through the experience of nature.
