Mutual recognition of the existence:
According to the Japanese way of thinking, personal values are the tolerance of differences. In this way the harmony between people, 和, “wa” (1)sum 2)harmony 3)peace), is recognized. Also “wa” can be written in another Chinese character “輪” ring, or whole, an image that has continuous flow, without beginning and end. There is only inside and outside the boundary. This Book has 間 “ma”: 1) interval, space 2) place, between “ma” creates a “meaningful void” by the deliberate use of space and the accentuate absence of color.
