A Monk’s Guide to A Clean House & Mind

Authors: Shoukei Matsumoto, Ian Samhammer, Kikue Tamura

I started reading Shoukei Matsumoto’s A Monk’s Guide to A Clean House & Mind out of a simple desire to tidy my home, but what I discovered was a surprisingly therapeutic and profound little book.

While I wasn’t looking for a detailed instruction manual for cleaning, I thoroughly enjoyed the way the author, a Buddhist monk, describes the activity. Matsumoto beautifully interweaves the physical act of cleaning with the resulting internal mind state. He effectively shows how sweeping away dust and scrubbing grime is a tangible practice for clearing away mental clutter and “worldly cares.”
