    I've visited this temple two weeks ago. The whole site instills peace and beauty.
    I was especialy impressed by the construction of the temple building.
    Increddible...

    I wish there were more ways to make our Western philosophy more present for our society, just as Zen gardens are exemplary for Buddhism in Japan.
    Great video, as always; I'm happy to get in touch with things I would've missed otherwise.

      @lastsamuraikyoto  3 роки тому +2

      Thank you for your comment. That wall is made from special soil. They put canola oil to the soil so that it stands for centuries. That’s why the color of the wall is different from other walls.

Thankyou, I appreciate you and being a help and not a hindrance in being able to finish my learning, and being able to live my life, without the flack. I also realised about the koans, one hand clapping, the one that claps is also the one that slaps. For every Zen clap, there is a Zen slap, both needed, necessary and essential, for strong and helpful foundations that supports the building and the roof and end immaturity. So for every Yes there is also a No.

    “I am content.” heals the centuries of official religion making us feel inadequate because we can never live up to its ideals, saves us from the maybe with the next car I’ll feel adequate. Does white rock expanse manifest stones as classic sumi whiteness manifests mountains and trees? Does whiteness represent Emptiness manifesting the everyday material world we experience?

    • @lastsamuraikyoto
      @lastsamuraikyoto  9 місяців тому

      Rocks sometimes represent holy mountains like Mt. Shumisen or Mt. Horai which nobody has seen. They may not exist but they do exist in mind when they meditate.
