Context Matters

This phrase is often used in contrast to material wealth (物質的な豊かさ). It emphasizes emotional or spiritual fulfillment over financial success.

📖Word Origin

心 (kokoro) = heart/mind, 豊か (yutaka) = richness/abundance, 追求 (tsuikyū) = pursuit. The phrase combines these to describe the pursuit of inner fulfillment.

📝Usage Notes

Common in discussions about personal growth, mindfulness, or well-being. Often appears in self-help literature or philosophical texts. Not typically used in casual conversation about daily life.
