For Buddhists, joy, or Mudita, is one of the four sublime states of mind, along with metta (loving-kindness), karuna (compassion), and upekkha (equanimity). It is the joy felt when seeing the happiness and success of others, without envy or jealousy, but with sincere appreciation. This resonates with the spirit of our Kora Club—where each creation, each shared story, and each connection we make is celebrated, not just for our own fulfillment but for the joy it brings to others.

In our fast-paced, often competitive world, this might seem like a distant dream—or maybe not. Perhaps it’s a direction worth striving towards, one stitch at a time, with belief, intention, and a heart open to joy.

So, as you pick up your needles and immerse yourself in the rhythm of creation, remember: you’re not just knitting a piece of fabric, but weaving moments of joy into the tapestry of life.
