Marcel Theroux travels across Japan in an attempt to understand Wabi Sabi, a theory of Japanese aesthetics in which imperfection and transience are the touchstone of beauty.
Surely the people bitching about this lovely doc have not watched the whole thing- I think Theroux makes a great effort at finding out about japanese culture and delivers a very thoughtful account of his experience in Japan.

Wabi Sabi can be explained as the story held in the face of the aging. Westerners seek plastic surgery to make the old face young. Wabi Sabi celebrates the old face as a testament to having lived the life that was lived. Old, or imperfect things is beautiful, not something to discard or renew. An old, shovel documents the service that served its user over time. Modern day pop or rock music is manufactured into a final cut after one take through electronic editing and simulated sounds. A traditional studio created song is done over and over front the top until it is intuitively just right. When you examine that song, you will discover the metre, drumming, and timing is off or imperfect but this is the beauty. Life is not perfect. Wabi Sabi is admission to that.

I think the closest concept in English is "studied casualness". wabi comes from adjective wabishii (わびしい), which means humble, unimpressive, short of deserted. sabi comes from adjective sabishii (さびしい), which means lonely, or simple and undecorated in appearance.

Sabishii also means "sad" so I believe there is an element of soul ache to it all, appreciating the transience of everything with a sense that it is both beautiful and tragic. The more transient something is (child's innocence, falling sakura leaves, a sunset) the more beautiful it is, the more difficult to see if finish so quickly, and the more satisfying to have been there to witness it

It just seems similar to the aesthetic we are after when we want handmade things even with their imperfections or when we purposely 'distress' things like furniture to give them more character. Too much decoration can seem gaudy or inappropriate/distracting. Maybe the tea people loved the simple bowls because they wanted the focus on the ceremony and the intamacy of it. There is nothing personal or intimate about a mass produced store bought item. There's no story behind a shiny new thing, but if you have an heriloom, or antique, even if it's not perfect, we love it and there is a story behind it.

Touching, and a little tragic too. At the start, Marcel seems quite sensitive to the wabi sabi aesthetic and honestly moved by it, but has terrible difficulty putting it in its proper context regarding Japanese culture overall. An analogy might be if a Japanese aesthete came to the West seeking the meaning of Romanticism (or Classicism, or any other movement in art). The Westerner in the street would probably recognize the term but not be able to define it adequately, and though our culture is shot through with Romantic ideals and values, it might be difficult to find living examples in everyday Western life.

2021: I Remarried after giving birth to a child from a different but first husband. The second, had married four times prior, but now deceased.This husband, was not a consciously-conscious human-being although an engineer in scientific human engineering. Unknowingly, he did suffer culture shock on our honeymoon. As Time passed, he continued oblivious to our family aesthetic surroundings and stayed in his own subliminal private world. His complex job 24/7 at the same time, was all consuming. He thought it protected secretively to insulate him by his work on Lockheeds’ Mars Project. Our partial life together could not be shared. The lack in his highly trained senses, did not allow the simplicity of the WABI--SABI motif. This was in spite of his child like-innocence and naïveté! For me, It was a tragic contradiction that had no solution.

Wabi-sabi is the capacity to be free of desire. The more you desire, more you live in function of it, so, if you are able to feel satisfied without the necessity of have things, so you are able to contemplate the world by the Wabi-sabi perspective, that means, again, pure satisfaction. Thats my opinion xD

Can't we all agree that each term, "Wabi' or "sabi" is a complex philosophical term. Each concept has taken hundreds of years to capture in words or images. Just imagine the immense amount of work just to take care of the temple. Now span that across decades of changing history and impermanent permanence that followed as result. We won't understand because the beauty can, in a rude translation, cause us pleasure while blissfully suffering in the meanwhile. Us westerners need to let go of trying to package "zen" or any other view point from the East and focus on our own enigmas at bay. My two cents.

Bloody hell watching this from a Japanese perspective , this is so cringe worthy . It actually makes me feel uncomfortable . The things is that i am not Japanese but after 25 years in Japan, being married to a Japanese having Japanese kids , I have such a hard time watching Brits acting like this . I assume it is staged but still , from the very beginning, the way he randomly asks random people question about things completely irrelevant to them is so cringy . He is the archetype of the annoying gaijin . White , of course, acting naturally superior , asking people questions and assuming they have nothing better to do than to answer . You just don't ask a clerk lady who is working to help you with anything not related to her work , 2 seconds after meeting her while she is still trying to check you in . You don't go to random people on the street asking questions about a concept that most Japanese don't even give a bloody damn about . 25 years in Japan and i have NEVER discussed wabi or sabi with Japanese people and if i ever wanted to know about it , i would do some research, because this is what you do in Japan , you look it up yourself, you find people who know about this stuff, you make a polite appointment, you bring a present and then you discuss the topic . Assuming that he can just ask anybody anything and then leave them after they answered or tried to answer is so superior . This is really the typical Gaijin attitude which Japanese absolutely loathe but are way too mpolite to tell it to your face. And then those obnoxious gaijins go back to their homeland and the ones who try to fit in Japanese society are left to handle the fact that they give us all a bad name .This documentary was rude and uncomfortable to watch. I watched it with my better half and mother in law and all they could politely say was " well, it's a good thing, you're not like him" . And a s a Half Brit half French on my mother's side , half Icelandic on my father's i am glad to use my Icelandic passport when travelling in Japan . at least we know how to behave , but fuck , the Brts and French take the cake when it comes to this inherent feeling of superiority , supposing that because they are white in Japan , everything is ok ! He is the opposite of wabi sabi, he is like a big bulldozer trying to go from A to B through a porcelain store , rather than trying to take its time and learn how to not bother anyone . How could he ever understand the concept of Wabi or Sabi , he has urgent questions , he doesn't care whom he asks them too and wants immediate answer . Go back to the UK get to a pub, have a beer and try to understand the concept of trying not act like a total self-righteous, self-important, self-indulgent twat abroad .

Good lord this is brutal. The mispronunciation, the five-second sound bytes about Japanese culture, the Orientalism...

Eastern spirituality is now over rated. Great spiritual masters from the East moved to Europe or the States. Many are in villages of the French countryside. Taisen Deshimaru lived 15 years in Paris center. He moved there at age 50, to develop the authentic zen of master Dôgen. There have been many masters from different countries, like Aïvanov and currently, a young zen master from Tibet. A huge painter and calligraphic master, but French, Fabienne Verdier, also lives near Paris. And I, the master of masters, am living a led back, serene, fulfilling life, not far :)))
