Nature
Natural
noun, な adjective
To find your self's true nature, go out into nature. Go out into the forests and fields, do some reading and thinking, and find your true nature.
This can also mean "natural" when it's used as a な adjective, like in 自然な日本語 (natural Japanese) or 自然な色 (natural color).
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. If you know the readings of your kanji you'll know how to read this as well. Wait! Except 自 is し and not じ! That is because when you add the little dakuten you are adding to the し. When it has no dakuten, it is in the form that nature intended.
