fulfillment of one's earnest prayers; realization of one's heartfelt wishes
A yojijukugo used in religious, spiritual, or formal contexts to express that a deeply held wish or prayer has been granted. Often appears in temple or shrine contexts, or in personal expressions of gratitude.
My long-held dream has come true; I truly feel that my earnest wish has been fulfilled.
神社で心願成就を祈願してきた。
I went to the shrine to pray for the fulfillment of my heartfelt wish.
Similar meaning but more neutral and less formal; 心願成就 carries a stronger nuance of a deeply personal, spiritual, or long-cherished wish.
A yojijukugo composed of 心願 (heartfelt wish/prayer) and 成就 (fulfillment/realization). The exact historical origin is uncertain, but it follows a common Buddhist-influenced pattern of expressing spiritual attainment.
