DESCRIPTION:A growing movement in Japan is choosing to part with their poss
 essions and appreciate the beauty of less. These extreme minimalists may l
 imit their wardrobe to only 20 items of clothing or choose to forgo a bed\
 , paring their home down to the bare essentials. Inspired by the aesthetic
 s and principles of traditional Zen Buddhism\, Japan&rsquo\;s new minimali
 sts say their transformation to simple living has freed them to spend time
  on other pursuits. <strong>Fumio Sasaki</strong>\, minimalist and author 
 of <em>Goodbye\, Things: The New Japanese Minimalism\, </em>joins us at Ja
 pan Society to discuss how he opted for minimalism over materialism and sh
 are his insight on this life-altering philosophy. <em>Followed by a book s
 igning reception.</em>\n
