意味
Being honest and kind-hearted.
文化的背景
White is the most sacred color. During Tsagaan Sar (Lunar New Year), people exchange 'Hadag' (ceremonial scarves) which are often blue, but the 'white' spirit of the holiday is what matters most. The phrase is linked to 'Tsagaan Idee' (dairy). Offering milk to the sky or to travelers is a physical manifestation of a 'white heart'. White symbolizes the 'White Tara' and the path to enlightenment, which requires a heart free from the 'three poisons' (ignorance, attachment, aversion). In the city, this phrase is often used to contrast 'traditional' sincerity with the perceived 'darkness' or 'greed' of modern business life.
Complimenting Elders
If you want to make a Mongolian elder smile, tell them they have a 'white heart'. It is the ultimate sign of respect.
Don't use for objects
Never use this to describe a white car or white paper. It is strictly for human character.
