Being very into traditional Japanese culture I did large Zen rock gardens in my front lawn area for the neighborhood to enjoy. Yup, the neighborhood cats really loved it too and I finally had to give it up.
My parents were zen buddhist and my serene childhood memories are standing and looking at the heavy weight slowly creating a spiral at our zen center. 40 years on, I have decided to create a desk sand garden with rocks and sand.
Been collecting and creating bonsai and suddenly found strong interest in zen gardens. Glad to find this video because you have many bonsai videos too. Thank you!
Omg I love this ending dude it's amazing we are all just really kids calling sand fancy so we can all just go play with it again, I was getting a bit of anxiety (maybe not the right word) just how to set one up but really changed my mind set behind the zen garden with that one line we are just kids Tryna have fun in the sand as adults
Aw so lovely! I’m going to try making one for when I’m in boring meetings. I saw the sand gardens in Kyoto and was not prepared for how intricate and creative they were.
Pretty fastinating love rake u got rock n ya cute sandbox that is nice it good vibration..high in the rock u lift up yaself love the way the sand fell it was play like a kid in a sandbox love ya concept of art!
I had a cat, just like Panther, when I was a child. Great cat, all black and built like a small panther. Used to love hiding in dark places and pouncing on passing people, and other animals.
Thanks Hiroshi, those are some excellent tips. One question, I have jagged rocks but I see that you have smoother rocks in your garden. Does the texture of the rock have to reflect on the type of landscape that you're creating?
again, what does that have to do with anything. its just a youtube comment, it was a shot in the dark whether I would get an answer or not. Why do you care?
Nothing in Particular It’s perfectly reasonable to think that someone knowledgeable in the comments might answer, even if it wasn’t who he was addressing the question to.
A question .. i made some mounds innthe zen garden to imitate hills ... i am thinking to cover these mounds with the protection of the soil that will later on contain gravel .. The mounds should be in future covered with moss or weeds .. so for making roots of moss and weeds i thought to put a thin layer 2 ” of soil ? What do you think ? Your appreciate advice ! Thanks. Josh
Where can I get a box like this with the framed bezel for my own zen garden? It looks nice and sturdy? My old zen garden died, the box, and I ran out of beautiful sand a friend sent me from her local beach. Thanks!
my right ear feels lonely
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN 😂
Lmao. Makes sense. I have wireless bluetooth headphones and the only one I have in, is the right one😅
Are you quoting Van Gogh?
@@leeboriack8054 no but that wouldve been iconic-
I listen with both
Lonely is the right ear now
Left ear's both the same

Maybe next time instead of sand, use exposed aggregate concrete. ;)
Fire Blanks
Cats pee and shit everywhere.
They especially love leaves, rocks, dirt for their mess pile..
That’s exactly what I’m thinking it’ll happen if I try it.
lol, never thought of this. Damn
love how he looses his shit in the end haah
Lorenzo Tebano hes so wholesome🥺🥰

Lmao
“Balance without symmetry” - what an accurate description of so much of Japanese art (which includes culinary arts).
I absolutely adore this man he is awesome
Thumbs up given after the cat warning. I don't just give away thumbs up for nothing. He earned it.
I’m outside watching this and reading this comment. I’m about to go inside and check on my cats lol
I love how you went from the pretentious-sounding "turn your little hobby into high art" to "it's just a sandbox for adults".
Stray sand: "Whow, that's kinda lonesome there...."
I died hahahahahahahah!
My parents were zen buddhist and my serene childhood memories are standing and looking at the heavy weight slowly creating a spiral at our zen center. 40 years on, I have decided to create a desk sand garden with rocks and sand.
I watched one of these videos and now my entire recommended has been invaded by Japan
Watch a video about nukes, that should take care of it for a while
Lol
As it should be my friend as it should be much love from Kansas City USA Jesus Christ loves you God bless
Wow i like this guy, I liked him since the "wow, it's lonesome" ~by sand 😂😂😂
Just what I needed, thank you!
my left ear LOVED this video.... my right ear was lonely.

Yes, you can play with your adult sandbox while driving your adult drinks.

Been collecting and creating bonsai and suddenly found strong interest in zen gardens. Glad to find this video because you have many bonsai videos too. Thank you!
this is so relaxing to watch
Merci du partage! Stéph.
"If you have a cat" I burst out laughing!!!
The way he related the cat-astrophe is so funny.
from the distant near past, a voice of Fun and Pleasure we play in the sand box
Oh no, he discovered why I want a Zen garden!!
Big thanks, this video offered an easy aproach. The cat warning is greatly apreciated too!!
I appreciate your energy so much! Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge with this simple, clear and also playful presence of yours
Arigato .

Did he say compulsive rock collectors!!! OMG! Can a guy really ever have too many rocks?
Cankuwicasa no. You can never have enough.
Compulsive rock collecting is a thing: Pet rocks people, kids, paleontology, and etc...
first off they're not rocks! jesus christ marie, they're minerals! ;) lol
I like to collect rocks i have crystals diomands fossils meteorite and lots more!
Oh this looks so much fun, I am definitely going to try this. Yep another Compulsive Rock Collector here...
Me too!!!!👍❤️
This video made me really sad, but also relaxed. There's a sort of nostalgia to it; it's very comforting too
I like to hug trees but if you like you can always kiss a rock . 😁
This makes me so happy
I love this video. I wanted something to do with my box of rocks lol
I could watch him talk about sand and rocks all day :-)
You are a beautiful and hilarious artist. Thank you for sharing the joys of adulthood!
This mans voice is so soothing
Fascinating, absolutely amazing. How simple but still it has that one thing I can‘t describe.
Left ear loved this video.
Love it ❤🙏
I like his energy 😁
Love this ❤️
Dear Mr. Hiro,
I love learning about zen gardening from you!
My left ear loved this video
You're wonderful !
I don't have cats, but I'm thinking twice about this IDEA thanks to the neighbourhood!
This is amazing! And I find it so peaceful
I don't know how I got here but I'm definitely not mad I love how he described it as a sand box😂💕
I love your humor...
I love collecting rocks and playing with sand
Gratitude for this wonderful, fun video. I plan to put some of your tips in my soon-to-be-built zen garden. Lisa Mackres
Wonderful. It's just a sandbox but we call it art. It really is a sandbox people! He's honest.
Totally cool! I'm making a full-sized garden, 5 m square, but then the rocks have to be big! Thanks for that video.
Aw so lovely! I’m going to try making one for when I’m in boring meetings. I saw the sand gardens in Kyoto and was not prepared for how intricate and creative they were.

I think I might have learned a life lesson by just watching this video. Thank You!
Uli that your never to old to play in a sandbox?
Thank you 🙏
Thanks Hiroshi, those are some excellent tips. One question, I have jagged rocks but I see that you have smoother rocks in your garden. Does the texture of the rock have to reflect on the type of landscape that you're creating?

I'm wondering about the same thing. Please reply if you found the answer :)
Sergio Orozco the person was trying to be a smart ass . Don’t mind them .
I have to come back to the shop sometime it is absolutely assume
Panther was a pretty tough critic. :)
A question ..
i made some mounds innthe zen garden to imitate hills ... i am thinking to cover these mounds with the protection of the soil that will later on contain gravel ..
The mounds should be in future covered with moss or weeds .. so for making roots of moss and weeds i thought to put a thin layer 2 ” of soil ?
What do you think ?
Your appreciate advice !
Thanks. Josh
great doctor, thank you for teaching me how to mix and make small scenes, right? I wish you good health
Did you make your tools? What mm pins did you use? What's their length and spacing? Thanks!
Where can I get a box like this with the framed bezel for my own zen garden? It looks nice and sturdy? My old zen garden died, the box, and I ran out of beautiful sand a friend sent me from her local beach. Thanks!
