Identify your essential
and eliminate the rest
DAN-SHA-RI is a beutiful Japanese concept
DAN is referred to refusal of unneeded things
SHA means throwing away unnecessary things you already own
RI is qual to “Let go from your obsession with possessions with a focus on yourself more spiritually rather than materialistically”.
It is not whether you “need” a specific item, but is more: do you really want it? and why?
Unneeded is about things, people, habits and thoughts that are not useful for you anymore in your personal journey.
It is a thinking process of reviewing the relationship between the items and the person (but not the relationship between such items with other people) at the present moment (rather than in the past or the future). If one thinks that it is sad to throw something away and thus keep it, the focus is on that something rather than the person.
The real spirit of Dan Sha Ri is not only to help people declutter the room but it also helps to understand yourself better and deeper
