Lessons Learned from the Rice Paddies | Masafumi Sato | TEDxTohokuUniversity

“If we think of something as a problem and deal with it immediately, we lose the essence of things. Why don’t we all observe together and notice the truth of this world? When something happens, it happens for a cause or reason, because everything is meaningful and connected. When something happens, take a breath and observe. A new world that you never noticed before is waiting for you.“ Through his talk, Masafumi Sato tries to convince us that we can overcome the challenges we are facing at an accelerated pace now by sharing everyone’s thoughts and insights.
Masafumi Sato is a natural farmer who tends to his field, paddies, and cafe at imacoco citta, Motoisago, Kawasaki. He travelled around various countries such as Tibet, Nepal, and Australia before finally deciding to return to his hometown and farm. He believes that our connectedness with nature must be treasured and through careful observation can we truly understand what is hidden. He hopes to share with us his philosophy of nature and observation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
