Ishi Mindfulness

In Japanese, the word 石 (Ishi), meaning "stone," embodies strength and patience, a silent witness to time's passage and a reminder of the present moment.

While the word 意志 (Ishi), meaning "intent" or "will," highlights the inner strength and determination that guides one's path in life.

 

"Ishi" aligns with the teachings of mindfulness and purpose, and that true intent arises not from force but from clarity and alignment with existence.
