''Yûgen'' is a concept associated with ''[[waka]]'' poetry, [[Buddhism]], and most especially [[Noh]] theatre. Most difficult to translate or define, it refers to an aesthetic of mystery, profundity, and depth, tied in with elements of indescribable beauty, and a metaphorical or conceptual abyss of the unfathomable. It is dark and deep, but in a welcoming, intriguing, and spiritually or intellectually profound way.
