I wish more of the Western coverage of authors like Marie Kondo and Sasaki would acknowledge how these philosophies are tied to (in Kondo's case) or rooted in the Shinto and Buddhist religions. These ideas without their philosophical grounding can seem absurd to Western minds, particularly ones steeped in a capitalist culture of things.
