A Monk Making a Japanese Sand Rake

- Sometimes in life, we just need things to be easy and simple. I wanted to create this video of a Buddhist monk making a rake to show the simplicity and beauty of being out in nature and creating something by hand. Slow, easy, and simple. Absolutely no rush. Buddhist monks take the time to practice mindfulness in all activities. This video is very symbolic of the life of a monk. It shows how steady and consistent work over time can create something simple, yet beautiful. I hope this video inspires you to slow down and appreciate the small things in life. #monklife #monk #minimalism

What activities do you do that helps you to feel calm and peaceful?
@@d.r.656 awwwe. I love that. Sadhu sadhu ❤❤❤
Walking dancing drawing swimming cooking
Yeaaaaa. Thank you so much ❤❤❤ I love bird sounds also 😊
@@juli-ana awwwww nice. I miss doing those things. Haha 😊
Listening to music, listening to birds, looking at and listening to rivers, streams, or ocean waves.
I love the stillness of this. It shows me how overstimulated my mind is.
Awwwe nice. Thank you so much 😊😊😊🙏🙏
The world is in such chaos and at times it seems mean, ugly, selfish and cruel. Thank you for bringing simple, peaceful actions into the light and sharing them with us.
Awwwe thank you so much. Yes I wanted to introduce some peace into the world ❤❤❤😊
I love how everything is done slowly, methodically. Personally, I love to go outside and water my plants or listen to water sounds. These videos are such a blessing to me.
Awww thank you so much Lila. I'm glad you enjoy them 😊😊
What a wonderful video! I like it very much.
Nick, your cinematography was stunning; showing beauty, purpose, peace & more. In Gratitude 💙
Awww thank you so much Marlene. I'm very new to this so I appreciate the support 😊😊😊🙏

Wow, handmade sand rake 😃 such a tedious job but it came out beautiful!!! Kudos to the monk. I find watching your vlogs to be very calming 🧘 Thank you Nick 👍🏻
Awwww thank you very much Julia for the support. I really appreciate it.
Greetings from Thailand ❤❤❤
So beautiful. The task of making the rake is as much the point as the use for which the rake is made. Working for others, or at least, not for oneself, with no overseer or evaluator, no clock and no money at stake? I think it’s safe to say that this is rare indeed.
❤❤❤❤🙏
Peace ☮️
❤❤❤🙏
To me, these glimpses into the life of a Buddhist monk are a visual of theoretical instructions and a reminder that this can also be implemented everyday, anywhere in our own lives:: Acceptance, awareness of the moment, pleasure of doing every deed purposefully but not rushed, taking the time for satisfaction in your completed work, meditation and so on.
Thank you
Yessssss ❤❤❤❤😍🙏
I feel very peaceful when I watch the monks daily routines May they be blessed with wisdom good health stay blessed to

Dear Nick, you are the best. What a nice and easy way of learning more about monk life. The question is: What do monks think of or meditate or pray on , during their routine daily work ?? How do they keep their mind from wandering. As 'the mind is a great servant, but a horrible boss"... Love and Light from Amsterdam Holland X God Bless you and the monks.
👍👍
Thank you so much 😊😊

Might the maze represent the mind, and all the steps needed to achieve enlightenment?
Yes it can 😊
I do foods garden and sewing.
😊😊
Why does the monk need a lock on his hut door? Isn't he living on Monastery grounds? .... Just wondering. :)
For 2 reasons. 1. We live in the forest and there are strong winds. It keeps the door from swinging open. 2. To keep the wild animals out 🙂
I don't have a lock, but actually use a hanger. We use what we got. Haha 😂😂
Japanese are different because of Buddhism
