I used to have a Zen garden that a spent 30 minutes a day just letting my mind go whenever it desired. And then I got cats. Maybe in time I take it out again and just learn to become one with the paw prints.
There’s a mathematical beauty in this art form. I felt a deep sense of calm in seeing the order, like all is right with the world. The creations feel eternal, yet they are so fleeting.

One of my daughters went through a "Satisfying Videos" phase which was comprised mostly of images/sounds of hands squishing slime and various items/materials being cut open. Well, now daddy has found _his_ Satisfying Videos 😻.
I had a meltdown earlier because this school term has been so stressful. But after watching this it's amazing how I was able to let my thoughts wander and then let them go and relax. I don't even remember how I found this video. But I'm so grateful.
@@senormooples2354 I am feeling much better! I finished the term and am taking a break from school for the rest of the year. I really appreciate your comment! :)
Never before did I realize the influence of Zen garden patterns on Art Deco (among many other "media"). This was mesmerizing. I will add, though several people wrote about the process putting them to sleep, I found myself wide awake by the end--relaxed and calm, though fully awake and alert. Thanks for sharing this...
For me this was the most impressive pattern, 9:22, considering that in came only from doing a single linear pass of the rake. The visual effect of that cuadricule is amazing.
wow, there really are professionals in everything. this is why I love the internet, you get to see people showcase skills you might not have even known existed otherwise :)
This looks like it takes a lot of practice to get the lines so perfect, thank you. I love how you can still see the patterns after the under rake is used, very subtle and beautiful.
The precision is so soothing. They have me thinking, all surgeons must do this as an outlet, and to keep their coordination in tact. Absolutely lovely!
Usually that phrase refers to the fact that a conflict has become inevitable and battle plans drawn up, so giving the phrase new connotations of peace and calmness is a really cool take on this!
19:36, the disc in the ripples is floating above the rings and bamboo poles below. it's as if the disc was dropped and the ripples are rolling out from the impact on the meniscus. it's all very 3D in a 2D plane
I truly admire the precision of your gestures. This is the kind of thing I'd love to do for relaxation, but I'm clumsy, my hands are shaky, and I get nervous about little details like a line that's not straight etc... so I'd probably spend 20mn trying to draw a satisfying circle, fail, and get anxious 😂
well i don´t even have a zen garden so you´re doing better than me already man. Creation is a natural human trait, do you think ancient pots found at archaeological sites are made by masters? Nah. Just people doing people things. There is no fail. There is only create.
That's because you are thinking while you do it. The entire point of zen is let the mind do it's own thing. Release yourself from the need of controlling your mind.
Hahahaha! I was thinking the same about doing it for relaxation. Then I remembered my hands are shaky and I freak out about details like straight lines or perfect circles and would also spend forever trying to get it perfect and just end up anxious and stressed!! Better to watch someone else do it lol!
some may say that symmetrical shaping, planned sketching, and precision tools takes the zen out of the garden, but to those on the ocd spectrum it's absolutely necessary or the entire world will burn. pure relaxation...
My favorite part of this is when the pattern is wiped away. It's a lovely reminder that I too shall be wiped away, my mistakes and failures along with me.
Me when he cuts a line through one of his patterns: "OH YOU FECKED IT YA FECKING WAFFLE WHAT THE FECK WERE YOUS THINKIN!" Me when it comes together after all and I see what he was doing all along: "I am one with peace, I am the lily"
Before watching this, I thought making a zen garden would be easy- but after, I see it takes alot of talent to actually make something that looks nice. Very impressive! 👍
I found this very beautiful. As a maker, the precision I need when crafting an item is similar to the skills needed for this. It is exercising that same thought muscle, tuning your mind to steadiness.
I think the fact it also looks very much like velvet and the neatness of the patterns give this satisfying soothingness. Has very much so scratched an itch in my brain that I never knew was there
These videos reset my mind. Sadness, depression, self-flagellation - everything goes away, leaving a feeling of floating in the middle of endless space. I used to watch ASMR videos, but they didn’t help much, but your TH-cam channel gives me a feeling of comfort and peace of mind. Thank you!
Idk how you don't have enough recognition.. Your zen garden videos are by far the best I've seen out there.. So smooth.. Such pleasing sounds and visuals ✨✨✨
This, was extremely calming for me. I was super stressed out and felt fine by the end of this video. I gotta make watching these a regular thing. As a mathematical person, I really love the geometric patterns here. I also love the dual concept of: 1) Being willing to put a lot of work into something beautiful and let it go 2) Having something really complicated that, at first glance, you don't know how it was made be wiped clean and smooth The second point was important for me and I felt a lot of the things I was worrying about vanish
TH-cam has been recommending this to me for weeks and i finally watched it. I'm absolutely floored with how peaceful and destressed i feel while watching this
I saw Zen Garden patterns many times, but i didn’t know what all those for. But after watching this video, it really makes more sense and this art speaks up everything without anyone speaks.
This came up as a recommendation and I am very happy. Such beauty exists in the simple sound of the tools on the sand, and the precision of the patterns. Thank you ❤
The brain seeks to understand sand by putting grains under the microscope. The spirit understands sand like this - by swimming in it. Thank you for the blessing 🙏
This is easily the best Zen Garden video I've watched by far. Such clean movements and patterns. It's a pleasure from the beginning to the end. I rarely go through these videos all the way just because it's so hard to make them look this comfortable. Great work!
amazing work. i’ve had a zen garden for only a few months now but it’s surprisingly difficult to get patterns to come out properly. this was not only a great way to get a better understanding of it, but super mesmerizing to watch as well.
Literally everything I tried wasn’t working to go to sleep, and when I saw this I instantly passed out, I had so many damn tingles. Putting this on repeat.
Yet again, TH-cam shows me a World of creativity I never knew existed and will never fully explore. Just gonna file this alongside the 3D pen guy and super cool calligrapher 👍👍👍👍😏😏😏😏

The patterns, especially when the stones are centred, remind me of when an object is dropped into water. It’s really beautiful:)

That's actually on purpose. Sand represents water and rocks represent islands in Japanese rock gardens.

Watching this video, I was enticed to buy a zen garden for myself. Then your comment reminded me why I can't.
There’s a mathematical beauty in this art form.
I felt a deep sense of calm in seeing the order, like all is right with the world.
The creations feel eternal, yet they are so fleeting.
Thanks for that, great observations and articulation. Very Zen / Tao.
Exactly, everything just feels right when looking at these patterns.
Yah I like drawing circles too.

I’ve stared at Art Deco For days…. Kindly splain your statement…thank you
Why did you put quotation marks on the word media?
I think it could be parallel evolution rooted in geometry, not necessarily influenced.
Are you serious? Simple line design does not make it Art Deco or even Zen garden for that matter.
wow. 100% perfect
My little sister stopped crying when I showed her this. She fell asleep soon after.
I knew what a zen garden was before watching this but never really seen one being used until now and my god that is some nice stuff

This video has explained to me the purpose of a zen garden better than any wiki article I could have read.
The precision is so soothing. They have me thinking, all surgeons must do this as an outlet, and to keep their coordination in tact. Absolutely lovely!
The phrase: "The line has been drawn in the sand" has a whole new meaning.
So many lines have been drawn in the sand!
'The lines have been carefully, thoughtfully, and lovingly caressed into the sand."
@@BassByTheBay i love myself some personification
Usually that phrase refers to the fact that a conflict has become inevitable and battle plans drawn up, so giving the phrase new connotations of peace and calmness is a really cool take on this!
I wonder if there’s science behind why this is so calming, I feel such peace but I don’t know why.
Order
I feel like the rhythm of the rake on sand sounds like waves
Look up ASMR,you’ll find a whole community dedicating their videos towards doing noises like these for relaxation purposes

this is an art that is beyond me, it is amazing.
I dont know why but this is exactly what I needed right now. Anyone else?
That gong sound everytime he draws a line… just mesmerizing
This is insanely beautiful - i was not expecting it to be so relaxing - the best part of a zen garden
What the dog doing tho
some may say that symmetrical shaping, planned sketching, and precision tools takes the zen out of the garden, but to those on the ocd spectrum it's absolutely necessary or the entire world will burn.
pure relaxation...
Not how ocd works
Those on the autistic spectrum like it too
Hey watch what you're saying, I'm being autistic here

This perfectly describes the emotional rollercoaster I rode while watching this
bro i have no idea why i just watched that whole thing but that was so satisfying and i feel amazing
I had no intention of watching this 23 minute video.
Perhaps having no intention was what made it possible.
Mesmerizing.

I stopped doing everything I was doing and only watched this. These shapes and patterns are so beautiful! Looks so masterfully done too!

Absolutely mind blowing. Positively stunning. This person has a gift.
Great video! The last pattern made me feel like that it's a visual representation of the history of existence
Traditional zen garden reimagined with geometries and techniques. Awesome!
I’ve always wanted a zen garden! We have three cats though so, let’s be honest, they would see it as a litter box 😂
😂

I just discovered your channel and this art! I am so blown away by how much this helps me relax. I use it to zen out and even to put myself to sleep!
the lines on the sand highlight the interactions between the three stone discs, even when they are completely stationary

Maybe you're experiencing ASMR.
池・石・木・橋・亭で理想郷である桃源郷を表す中国庭園に対し、砂と木、苔（時には砂だけで）表現する枯山水は日本庭園の代表的なものだよね。わびさびとか不均衡の美を感じられる。
この紋様や岩の配置にもそれぞれ意味するものがあったりするのも奥深さがあって良い。
日本でも有名な竜安寺の枯山水は15個ある石の配置も工夫されていて、7,5,3に分かれているとか上から見ると「心」という字の崩しに見えるとか、どの角度から見ても１４個しか見えないとか、そういう部分にまで心配りされているところも含めて「和」なんだろうな・・・
日本人でも理解しきれないこの精神に海外の人が興味を持ってくれるっていうのもうれしい限りだ…
