 the Zen story you will hear shortly
where you will discover five reasons why
you should also try it stoicism an
ancient philosophy that Advocates the
Serene acceptance of external events and
focusing on what we can control offers
us a lens through which to understand
the importance of this Buddhist practice
by putting salt in our shoes we are
practicing the acceptance of external
difficulties and maintaining our inner
peace aligned with the stoic principles
of tranquil qu ility and mental strength
in the face of adversity it reminds us
that just like in stoicism our inner
well-being is not determined by external
circumstances but by our attitude and
response to them in the heart of a
valley surrounded by the mystical Aura
of the Japanese mountains was an ancient
Buddhist Monastery guardian of ancestral
wisdom and a refuge for those seeking
inner peace in this place where time
seemed to have stopped lived the elderly
and revered monk Makoto whose wisdom and
deep understanding of the paths of
Buddhism and Eastern medicine Shone like
the light of a candle in the night one
morning as the golden rays of the sun
filtered through the branches of the
trees Makoto gathered his disciples in
the monastery Closter for one of the
usual lessons and with a Serene
expression invited them to sit in a
circle around him and began to speak
with a warm and reassuring
voice every step we take on the path of
life is a sacred Journey the monk began
a path that leads us to the knowledge of
ourselves and the universe that
surrounds us and just as to face a long
and exhausting Journey it is necessary
to prepare adequately so too in our
Earthly existence we must be ready to
face the challenges that await us the
disciples listened ecstatically to their
Master's words and when he mentioned the
ancient custom of putting salt in their
shoes their minds opened to The Wonder
of a tradition as ancient as it is
mysterious this practice Makoto
continued has roots that go back to the
most distant past when our ancestors
walked through wild and impenetrable
lands in Those Distant times Salt was
not only a condiment to enrich food but
a precious commodity a symbol of Purity
and protection the monk paused
momentarily allowing the words to settle
like delicate sand in the minds of his
disciples and then continued now I will
explain the five main reasons why the
practice of putting salt in your shoes
is so significant and important for our
spiritual path and for our overall
health first said Makoto salt has the
power to absorb moisture just as Buddha
absorbed the suffering of the world when
we put salt in our shoes it helps us
keep our steps light and agile in
Buddhist practice moisture is often
associated with the heaviness of worries
and suffering that we carry with us on
the path of Life salt acts as an
absorbent of these concerns allowing our
steps to remain light and agile as we
advance in our quest for inner peace and
wisdom to enhance once the meaning of
this aspect Makoto told them the story
of an old fisherman who during a storm
had saved his boat from breaking apart
thanks to a bag of salt he had thrown on
the deck to absorb the
water the second reason for putting salt
in your shoes continued Makoto is that
salt has purifying Properties by
assimilating impurities salt purifies
our path freeing it from harmful
influences and spirit ual obstacles
putting salt in our shoes therefore is a
way of protecting our mind and spirit
from the disappointments and temptations
of the outside world to better explain
this idea the monk shared with his
disciples the story of a traveler who
during his journey came across a river
infested with evil spirits thanks to the
salt in his shoes he was able to cross
the river unharmed protecting his mind
and spirit from negative influen
the third reason continued Makoto is
that salt helps us maintain balance just
as the mountains surrounding us are
symbols of stability and strength
putting salt in our shoes also helps us
root ourselves to the Earth and remain
steadfast in the face of life's
storms the mountains surrounding the
monastery represent the image of
stability and strength said the monk
just as these imposing rock formations
remain firm even in the the face of the
most violent storms so too must we learn
to maintain our internal stability when
facing life's challenges and putting
salt in our shoes symbolizes this
Balance Salt in fact acts as an anchor
for our steps stabilizing them and
preventing unwanted Falls along our path
when we walk with salted shoes we feel
more solid and rooted to the ground as
if we had a deep connection with the
Earth itself
this balance affects not only the body
but also the Mind and Spirit therefore
following this practice is an invitation
to find the right balance between the
different dimensions of our existence
between work and rest between action and
contemplation between joy and sorrow
between good and evil to make the
concept clearer Makoto told the story of
a young monk who during a meditation on
the banks of a stormy Mountain stream
had found perfect balance thanks to the
Salt he carried with him as the
disciples became more and more engaged
with the stories of their spiritual
guide Makoto continued with the fourth
reason salt also has healing
properties he said that in eastern
medicine in fact salt is considered a
natural remedy to alleviate pain and
tension putting salt in your shoes can
relieve not only physical discomforts
but also the mental ones we encounter on
our spiritual path to demonstrate this
idea the monk shared with his disciples
the story of a farmer who suffering from
an open wound on his foot had found
