The Practice of Kintsugi
The practice of Kintsugi
The practice of Kintsugi—repairing broken vessels by sealing the cracks, then painting them gold—is a remarkable art. The Japanese believe the golden cracks make the pieces even more precious and valuable. It’s beautiful to think of this practice as a metaphor for your life, to see the broken, complex, or painful parts of you as radiating light, gold, and beauty. Kintsugi teaches you that your broken places make you stronger and better than ever before. You can pick up the pieces, put them back together, and learn to embrace the cracks. Each student will break a bowl, glue it back together in the Kintsugi way, and paint the cracks gold.
