Shunmyo Masuno: "The Art and Philosophy of Zen Garden Design"
Shunmyo Masuno, Japan's leading garden designer, is at once Japan's most highly acclaimed landscape architect and an 18th-generation Zen Buddhist priest, presiding over daily ceremonies at the Kenkoji Temple in Yokohama. He is celebrated for his unique ability to blend strikingly contemporary elements with the traditional design vernacular. He has worked in ultramodern urban hotels and some of Japan's most famous classic gardens. In each project, his work as a designer of landscape architecture is inseparable from his Buddhist practice. Each becomes a Zen garden, "a special spiritual place where the mind dwells." His work is the subject of Mira Locher’s book, “Zen Gardens: The Complete Work of Shunmyo Masuno”.

I recommend reading his book, "The Art of Simple Living", it's a very simple, easy-to-read book, but it's helpful for living a life with more calm and joy.

Aristotle Change There is the Buddha for those who do not know who he is. There is no Buddha for those who know who he is. All Enlightenment ends with cleaning the floor.

There's always perfection in imperfection, if that makes sense. Recalling a line from "Good Will Hunting", both Will and Skylar weren't perfect. It's a question on whether or not they're perfect for each other. That's nature in all its glory.

Thank you for the lecture, every video on this channel seems obsessed with the color of people's skin. We're living in a new intellectual dark age
