It's safe to say that there has never been an era with so many people feeling the difficulties of life as today! The answer can be found in the classic "Hojoki." This book is also very easy to understand, with the text rephrased in a way that feels like Kamo no Chomei is speaking directly to the reader, allowing anyone to grasp the content easily. The Hojoki is said to be Japan's first disaster literature, but Chomei's purpose was not to record disasters, but to reveal where we, as humans, reside. He confronts us directly with the reality of living in such an uncertain world, asking us "What is a human being?", "What is happiness?", and "What is the meaning of life?" This is a book that will undoubtedly become a source of comfort for your heart!
