Zen Rock Garden

So it doesn't change very quickly - it sure is cool to look at. We are at Ryoanji Temple, trying to see
all 15 stones. Apparently the garden was designed by "Soami" who died in 1525.

People: Jesse, Sean

Model of Garden

This is a model of the Rock Garden.  The real garden is pretty hard to get far back from so this
gives you a good idea how it works.  You sit along the bottom edge and try to see all the stones - once you can,
you have reached a zen state.

Stones In Temple
There are different ways to see this - perhaps these are islands in the ocean - peaks in the clouds - see it how ever you want.
