The secret of Suiseki, 水石のこころ

The secret of Suiseki

Although Suiseki is Japanese traditional culture to appreciate stones, I believe that there is the most important thing at the bottom of Suiseki, which are sense of beauty, a way of thinking, and feeling peculiar to Japan.

It is true that it can be applied to all activities of mankind including Suiseki, but it is to have breathing room in our heart or calming ourselves by mastering the activity.

Not infrequently, we are tossed around by trivial in daily life and we found ourselves at our last gasp at times.

To be away from the situation, and to regain our composure, I hope to make myself master of Suiseki.

  Find great in a tiny thing,
    and feel something in great.

This, in essence, is the secret of Suiseki, I believe.

For the first step, I would like to start to see, touch and feel something in Suiseki.
