I made this video for people interested in Japanese zen gardens. However, it became rather popular with ASMR-enjoying people as well.
Kikiyaya Zen Garden in The Netherlands Watch Pantau Chan taking care of her Zen garden. Relax while watching her raking the garden with zen circles and enjoy the sounds. People who enjoy ASMR videos may also like the relaxing sounds of raking gravel. / kikiyayazengarden
The Japanese rock garden (枯山水 karesansui?) or "dry landscape" garden, often called a zen garden, creates a miniature stylized landscape through carefully composed arrangements of rocks, water features, moss, pruned trees and bushes, and uses gravel or sand that is raked to represent ripples in water.

They’re taking more care of that garden than I take care of my life
I feel ya bro
Lol! Why be a slave to the garden. Smh.
Man I know
ludd
But that’s the idea, you have to have something too look after a hobby if you will.
😂
Now this is the right kind of ASMR. Not girls who slap food around in their mouth.
Ye its cringe
I'd agree except for the koto music in the background.
I don’t see what’s ASMR about it
SanJose408Alex I think you’re confusing mukbangs with asmr.
oh yeah ,, say what now? Lol
It’s kind of crazy how it can be swept and walked on without messing up the rocks, I thought it was more like sand lol.
@Christlyeb V the Iceland stuff is volcanic ash or basalt pebbles/powder.
Its easier to use leafblower
@@Masterpeace0_0 please dont use leaf blowers on zen gardens, the rocks are sometimes light and can be blown away easily making a mess. I repeat, do not use leaf blowers on zen gardens.
@Christlyeb V Black sand beaches can be found in Hawaii too from the volcanoes, granulated lava I guess
@@yok4190 a leaf blower would defeat the purpose of Zen
When I was really young, my neighbor had a Zen Garden in his backyard. I never understood what it was, what it was for, or why he would go outside and rake sand (his was sand not gravel) all the time even in poor weather conditions. I could always see it from my room, and always thought it was silly some 60 some year old man was playing in an oversized sandbox. (I was really little lol i didn't know what culture even was)
Years later, I actually know what it really is and what it's for...
Now, I kinda wished I still lived by him and wished I could ask him to teach me about it and let me try it. He's probably long gone now, since it was like 15 years ago.
This is really cool and makes me want a zen garden of my own now :p
Thank you. This is a really nice comment that I shared with my garden's fans on Facebook. facebook.com/kikiyayazengarden Good luck!!
O dear. I receive hate mail because of my zen garden because they don''t get it. People think I should rot in hell because I step on circles in the process of making a perfect pattern.
Veronique Pantau Renard lol you should not delete .. you should not let it effect you to have to.. thanks for a awsome vid but do you do the garden for you or for others? this is the question 😏 ya crazy bitch .. 😉
Veronique Pantau Renard your work is amazing. How would I get into making a zen garden?
Alex Forman Start with a plan and then make it reality.
I thought it was a old japenese man until 5:19 :( lol
And then you found out I was a hot blond chick huh.
Me too
me too 😂😥
you can blonde hair early on.. not sure how many japanese people are blond bro
"Wait.. you're not Asian!! I've been duped!" - Mrs. Costanza from Seinfeld.
I remember my aunt used to have a tiny little zen garden on her office desk and I would always ask her what the thing as all about. She would tell me that it’s her way of relieving stress and for me to never touch it or she’d kill me. I have a funny relationship with my aunt so as birthday gift I poured coke on top of it and waited for her reaction. I literally heard her screaming from upstairs. So I went down and gave her a new zen garden with like a whole bunch of tools and polished pebbles. She slapped me and then hugged me. She is a wonderful person and till this day I forever love zen gardens.
Jesus Christ...
Even if you give her a new on.....the old one still has memories for her....
Many things wrong with both of you. Jfc
Thats the most asian thing ive ever heard
You and your aunt are fukn wierd.
7:55 Will the gravel be even? Will she be able to make the rings seamless? Find out in next week's episode off..Zen Garden

I did make more raking videos after this early one. Beter ones. This was one of my first raking vids, so I am rather unexperienced here. Now I am just fabulous with the rake. Check out my channel.
@@Kikiyayazengardens wait is this your first time?!?!!! It looks great tho 😱
Would be dope with a DBZ narration!
7:53 oh thank god
hahaha The rule is that a zen garden raker is allowed to step on the circles as long as the end result is perfect. Sometimes it is not possible NOT to step on them as to allow the raker to reach difficult to reach areas. People send me nasty comments that I should die or rot in hell because I step on my circles. I bless everyone and wish them peace of mind.
Veronique Pantau Renard i find it funny that people think that stepping on zen circles is grounds for eternal damnation
I know. The more I know about humans, the better I like my dog.
IKR? That footprint was bugging me the whole time. 😅😄😃
I did that deliberately to solicit frustrated hate comments.
I love how footprints don't show up. I went camping at a place with a group of Boy Scouts. Summer camp. We were supposed to rake up all the pine needles every day, but that meant we had to walk through dust all the time. Anyway around the fire pit there was sand and I got up early one morning, and decided to smooth it out with the iron rake and I made careful circles around the fire pit. There was a strange flower in there called a Snow Flower that normally only blooms in colder weather at higher altitude. So I made circle around that too. I figured once everyone got up the boys would trample it.
But they surprised me and all thought it was pretty cool. They very carefully stepped around it and didn't disturb it for the longest time. It was pretty cool.
That is so cool! I'm glad those boys were nice too. :)
Nice story :)
The foot prints are super apparent on the waves and they are killing me, what are you even talking about
@@gman1515 footprints show up on the designs but not on the smoothed out gravel, i think thats what they meant
@@eu0n1 you can actually see them on the smoothed gravel as well, just not as clearly
Wth I cant even keep my room clean
yusanema You should see my bedroom! Or the drawers of my cabinet. Messyyyyyy!
Same
Enter, the hoarder (me). Someone who won't give shit away to save their very life!
You'll get there eventually
@@coberrycheesesnek4769 Your Zen garden must be hard to maneuver in I guess.
The garden represents your life. How well you maintain the gravel is a reflection of either chaos or order that flows within you.
Say that to ludd, the individual that says that this man takes better take care of his garden then ludd does with his life
uncle iroh
Chaos and order need to be balanced. Too much of either of them is unbalanced and can be quite problematic.
@@jorgemiguel2641 I think I prefer the lack of chaos in my home haha
@@TheCookiQueen Too much order is unsustainable, so even an over organized home has it's problems. There's always a balance in everything
I finally know what I need now.....a zen garden in my mind that I meticulously tend to at bedtime to carry me into sleep.
That's actually a great idea!
🌀🌀🌀🌀🌀
thats pretty dope!
You don't like playing with sheep and making them jump fences anymore?
@@nunyabiznes33 ah. I had forgotten to tend the zen garden. Thanks for the reminder.
the things I would do for a small house with a garden. screw living in an apartment
Indeed this is the stuff people dream about. I am in heaven indeed.
You can have rock gardens indoors ya know
Jhon I feel your pain man. I feel your pain. I live in a BASEMENT UNDER THE FREAKING APARTMENT BUILDING even worse doe. but I will move. soon.
just make one in your apartment lol
What kind of things? 😏
The sound the gravel makes is absolutely fantastic! I love this!
Ciao Kiki !! Non mi aspettavo vederti qui =)
This song is a derivative of the traditional Japanese song “Sakura,” translating as “Cherry Blossoms.” I love it too!
what the actual fuck is this comment section.
It's just gravel...
supersiem14 it's the simple things to some people.
An artist at work. I had never seen a real Zen garden, nor did I have any appreciation for what went into it. I watched every minute. The 'crushed rock of a specific size range' revealed the secret to their canvas. I had not imagined one could create a gravel surface that behaves as uniformly and firmly as this. No pea gravel need apply! I also learned that you cannot create perfection on your 'first pass'. There are times when you need to step on a 'perfect' circle to complete the whole design. One repairs the damage to seamlessness and moves on. There is a lesson in that for me. I can barely imagine how much work it took to develop the skill to keep the rake handle on a 'true radius' (not skewed). Impressive. Thank you. (Seven years later you inspire someone.)
If i did one of these I imagine myself keeping it up for like a week, and then it gets full of weeds and sticks and i now have chairs and a table in the middle of it drinking beer, lol
This is perfect peace in paradise....
yeah this is definitely good training for patience and motivation...im not gonna lie...i can see me doing it for a week and then idk probably get bored ...if i had a house with a yard i would like to try this to see if i can do something like this. To try to push through my laziness. With work and my hobbies i could see me giving up.
LOL yeah bro.
It's stunning but my cats would use it as an oversized litter tray might spoil the effect
not if you make a wave circle around it
@@polarnyong 😂😂😂😂
Cleaning out the cat poop could just become part of the meditative process. Namaste
@@polarnyong I don't laugh out loud at comments. But yours made me almost die. Lol
@@bajocontinuo3 whaaat
It is not about the garden...its the act of trying to achieve perfection... thank you for this video.
Thanks. My more recent videos are all about the garden and perfection. This video has more wabi sabi in it.
May someone please help me to understand how to use a zen garden properly? I just purchased one but haven’t used it.
Why is this in my recommendations and why did i watch the whole thing twice and why do i want to have a zen garden now-
Hahaha. I get videos recommended on super yachts. Now I want one too.
Because. :) it’s obvious, isn’t it.
lol same here... found it peaceful
You must lol
Mila Ayuhara haha I get it 😉 🇯🇵
so this is what she did after the film kill bill.....lol
LOL
Craig Mee, you don't just kill your sensei and come back to self. You need to rake gravel for that.
lmao.
Craig Mee makes sense lol
Interesting that this lady, known as "The Creepy Gardener", never responded to your comment. Hmmmmm...
Gardener: "No matter how long I brush this area I can never quite get rid of the footprints."
I’m in a wheelchair so I don’t believe I’d be able to navigate one of these, either sand or gravel, but now I think I want to invest in a tabletop Zen garden to work with. Thank you for the soothing video, it was fascinating to watch you work in tranquility, despite the occasional bark of a dog or two. Phenomenal. :-)
I bet you can make some nice prints with your wheels. But a table top garden could also work. Good luck darling and God bless you. Check out my other videos. They are better.
I love the part where the commercial interrupts the zen mood this was creating.
Was it Geico?
Between adbolck plus and McAfee, i don't get commercials.
Just pay for premium. It's worth it. Trust me
Premium is the way to go
@@jaxnaturals Same, best $16.00 per month ever!
I recently made a zen/dry type garden in my backyard. I was surprised to find that I enjoy the levelling and cleaning phase the most (all the preparation). It's the most meditative and calming part of the process. Raking can be nerve racking actually after being in such a calm state.
I felt like, I was hypnotized.............
Three, two, one, you're back in the room.
Veronique Pantau Renard lol
NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT YOU BEEING OFFENDED! Hahahah
I completely get your point, you could say the video title is wrong. But imo someone doesn't need to learn x years practising, to create the perfect zen garden, just to put something similar in your backyard. Like, this is merely a hobby to the creator of the video.
You just can't expect everybody, whos not japanese, but is interested in the culture, to understand the complexity of it like you do.
Morgan Olfursson Thanks for your input. Sorry you feel offended by my garden. Zen Buddhism is not about feeling offended, anger and hatred, but about love and forgiveness. Japanese people are always very kind to me and too polite to show negative feelings, thus I am surprised by your attitude. It is very western, very rude, almost Dutch. Fortunately many Japanese experts love my effort to create a garden that helps me to meditate and that is pleasing to the eye. As a Dutch painter I never feel offended by Japanese people who feel inspired by Rembrandt and Van Gogh and try to paint like them. Even if they are not perfect at it, it is their attempt and their joy that counts. As a friend of the Dalai Lama and having lived a monastic lifestyle in Asia for 12 years I can only wish you all the best and a peaceful heart. I bless you, my dear friend.
I've been noticing that my veggies fruits and all kinds of things that come from nature have swirl patterns I opened a seedless watermelon and I don't even know why I've never noticed this but it had a swirl pattern going threw it like yellow fibers I never took time to actually look for these things and seeing this being done reminds me of it..why haven't I ever noticed it? I'm old why didn't I learn this in school? And why is there so much pattern inside of nature! It doesn't seem randomized to me it's like it purposeful, a signature a thumb print,....oh I'm going on my Google search right now! Great video..GOD is good..
BEE REAL Throw a pebble in a pond and the ripples are circular, never square or triangular.

You forgot the most mind blowing thing of all...
The solar system’s pattern
Who’s still enjoying this in 2024? 🙏😎
とても素晴らしい。縁側まであるとは。
そこでお茶でも飲みながら、のんびり過ごす1日もいいですね。
I would really like to build a garden like this. A place where I can go and just slip out of my stresses and live actually in the moment without worrying about other things.
True
Just swipe the house
Just draw
I do the dishes for that
See that's where many are trully wrong about zen. Yes meditation and freeing ones self and all these things are important but zen teaches us that even in our daily lives we must be able to be this tranquil we first attain this peace learn what it feels like then apply it to the world, we should not feel the need of a cacoon or a shield from the outside rather we must live in the outside with no fear and simply live that is true enlightenment
I remember watching this 7 years ago wow time flies so fast.
It's amazing how you can go from watching a music video to a zen garden
7 year ago wouh
I know this was uploaded and such years ago but i feel like just watching this and taking care of my own little zen garden is helping me slightly gain some control of my ocd and not to let the imperfections get ahold of me and that its not a type of life or death situation my brain makes it out to be (like when she stepped in the circle and left a footprint really set me off)
Im getting there little by little and one day i can fully enjoy the practice
I knew the one footstep would set off an avalance of haters, however, I fixed it a little later. Yet, the imperfections in a seemingly perfect garden makes it beautiful. It is called wabi-sabi, in Japanese.
Not gonna lie, when it said "perfection never lasts long," I was expecting the next shot to be of a cat trampling it.
Its strange, cause I can relate to this with yard work. My family used to have to make me go outside to mow and edge the lawn, trim bushes and plants, or rake leaves and sticks up, but now I do it willingly because of that meditation like state it puts me in. Its also nice when you slowly work at something over time to have all your small progress add up to a finished product that gives you a sense of accomplishment.
Still learning how to apply that mindset to real life though...
Thanks. You seems to understand well that this has little to do work but rather with relaxation, meditation and fulfilment.
And this video is one of the many reasons why I want a Japanese garden
Genius how they came up with this philosophy and way of life. The garden can be configured to the state of your mind.
I like how that raking matches the music..
It does! Relatively. Pretty close xD

Ahhh, so peaceful, I love the ripples in my zen garden.
*Wind blows*
Right now we don’t see a lot of stuff like this cause the peace of the world is just slowly fading away but with more people like this man here we can slowly restore peace again
If I ever become a homeowner, I would love to have this. There's something meditative about just tending to the garden that would be a form of destressing. Like take a few hours of your weekend to just turn off and go zen. A medium sized spot, much like what's framed on-camera, and after tending to it you just sit and drink beer or whatever. Nice.
That is exactly the idea. I hope your dream will come true. Watch all my other videos. They are better than this early one.
Believe me or not i was watching this infront my tv at 2 am i watch it after that i suddenly fell aslep cuz the sound is so relaxing
Go to my channel and watch all my videos. Good night.
I do it again i totally sleep again after 8 minutes after i comment
I've watched many of these on this one,I can't get enough.love Zen.
Watching this was so relaxing. I'm ready to take a nap.
Sierra Murphy That's the power of zen gardening.
Me too!
I'll watch porn instead and then go to sleep
the beauty of Japanese culture
the gaming umbreon have you seen hentai
Theli Just curious. How do you know that that person is "overobsessed" with japanese culture? Just one comment and thats what you assume? Th (the heck)
Theli
You can enjoy another culture without being over obsessed
Terri Ly So true. Obsessions are very negative emotions and disturbing to the mind. As a Buddhist I try to achieve happiness and relaxation. I am not obsessed, not even with my garden. The garden is only perfect on photos and videos.
gizmo livestreams beauty? Come on bro its a oversized fancy kitty litter box.....
I feel there is positive vibes around that garden.
I have a tiny little Zen garden, about 3' across. Haven't seen it since the 40" snow dump. Even little, I enjoy tending it. Took me all one summer to pick the rocks for it and bring them downhill. Instead of Buddha, I have a horsehair ceramic seated native American lady. I started another one in my 10x10 entry garden, also snowed in. I just received a Mahonia repens in the mail to plant as an evergreen. I have 3 rocks already. I made a concrete lamp. It is a fascination.
Wow I would have love to se pix of your garden it sounds wonderful
What a beautiful zen garden , so much patience and caring... feel so calm watching this , thank you 🙏🏻
This is why people love yardwork so much. Truly zen
The way the music is keeping up with their sweeping. Ahhh i love Sakura
I wish I had my own house and make like this garden.. it makes my brain soothing after watched this.
These are my favorite type of videos to go to sleep to.. just so satisfying
I feel like she could have avoided stepping on the patterns each time she did
Have a zen garden looks like a hard work already. But having the time and patience to maintain it it's toyally worth.
The cleaning and sifting of the rocks in the beginning was so satisfying
Person: (brings out metal pan)
Leaves and debris: gets picked up by hand
Metal pan: *am I a joke to you?*
Him *sweeping* the sand is the type of dedication I strive to have when I get older
I need a zen garden, looks super peaceful and one with nature
I was feeling quite unsettled today but watching this gave me a sense of calm and peace.. Thank you. ❤️
Coffee Clouds Hey listening to is very very relaxing it calms any human being smooth jazz
Her stepping on the lines.
Viewers: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-Michael Scott
@Plutonium You actually took the time to scroll down the comments and then just say that. That's just sad.
ive come to appreciate mowing lawns because it just gives me several hours to meditate while driving around in patterns cutting the grass
I recognize this song, Sakura Sakura. We had to memorize and sing this in 8th grade. Very lovely and calming video.
This lady on the next level get every little leave out like he clean his life from the inside fit into a corner to filter out the debre from rocks, politely placing them back restoring the corner. Love the landscape btw, gives me a better idea of landscaping in Japan.
The relaxing music and sweeping/racking noise is very soothing I think i will go to sleep with this In the background for a few nights
I have more videos that are better. Good night, sleep tight.
Now this something we could all be practicing to heal ourselves! Thank you for this video.
I always loved these but thought maintaining them would be stressful. Now that I see how it's done, it's so totally for me.
It's a beautiful garden and a beautiful process.
Very impressive. You have a gorgeous garden. Thank you kindly for sharing.
Thank you. I had an interior miniature Japanese Garden in my apartment a long time ago. With my total ignorance and little knowledge, I made it. Gone forever a long time ago due to many reasons, there are no plants or rocks around anymore.
Thanks. This is an old video of mine. My later videos are much better. Check them out and feel inspired!
Whenever I buy a house I definitely want one of these in my yard
Zen gardens are so beautiful, but i'd never have the patience to do it right
Rollo Larson but he/she doesn't have the patience. i can imagine neglecting mine in a matter of days, if i had one.
SwordBreaker925 It's fine even this woman in the video is not doing it correctly. We all completely understand how difficult patience.
teehundeart i do have patience but this doesnt require slow motion. Where did you get that information from?
Bruce Wilson Are you an expert? Japanese monks contact me for help so I think I am doing alright.
+Veronique Pantau Renard I just discovered your channel and I find it aesthetically pleasing. From what I see, you seem to be quite adept in this art and well focused and patient lol I would just stop after the sweeping part. Gee you must have developed great arm muscles with all this work lol. Cool channel.
holy crap this video was 3 years ago..amazing i need a zen garden like now
Now ur comment is the one that's three years old
Iqra wraich HOLY SHIT
Me, who barely taking care to my room : awesome, and satisfying in every ways.
I wish I had the patience and determination to do this. It’s amazing...
I love the Japanese garden
I never knew I needed this in my life, why has it taken 7 years for this to pop up in my recommended?
Awesome Zen garden....truly inspiring
I would just sit in it and draw with a stick also it's really relaxing just watching .
This popped up in my recommendations 7 years later and I did not hesitate
As a perfectionist person, this is the kind of place where i desire to live forever on.
とても素晴らしい日本庭園ですね。
私は日本人です。
我が家も、池や、日本庭園が有ります。
少し気になるのが、仏像の配置です。
仏像を配置する場合、積んだ石と同じ場所には置かずに、石垣などの中に配置する事を推奨します。
それは、庭の視覚的な調和という意味からではなく、
日本独特の信仰の精神的な意味合いからの助言です。
完璧な、美しい日本庭園なので、仏像の配置だけが気になってしまいました。

This really makes me want one

Heres a replay, dream on if you think your kids gonna let you play in your fancy sandbox with toy boats....
Japanese garden is the best garden in th world! Epic phenomenal full of philosophy!!!
I almost fell asleep while watching.. very peaceful activity.
+Anda Ansheen I take that as a compliment. Try my newest video when you really want to fall asleep.
+Pantau Chan yes, it was a compliment ^_^ keep it up

This is traditional sand garden in Japan. Each rounds mean waves when you dropped the stone. The garden want to describe water, pool and wave with sand. it came from daimyo or dynasty garden which is central of big japan's traditional castle. If owner is richer than others, it looks more beautiful
Relaxing and calming video - thanks for sharing!
This music is on Shogun 2: Total War 😁
Visited a zen garden in Japan it was gorgeous and peaceful. Great video showing the preparation that goes into it!
We are very thankful you have shared this with us.
This is so peaceful. I can finally go to sleep now 😌. Good night 🌙
it looks pretty calm😔 with background music 🎼
I strive to be this attentive and zen with myself and my surroundings
I really enjoy watching this video (have done so a number of times). I find it so relaxing. This garden must give you a lot of peace and joy :) thank you for sharing.
Yes, sweeping is great meditation.
綺麗な砂紋の素晴らしい枯山水の庭ですね。
心が穏やかになりそうです。
This actually looks like fun must feel so rewarding when your done
Free SKINS Absolutely. It is one of my greatest joys in life.
it’s amazing that the tools can easily create such fine patterns in the gravel and yet your footprints never show up
こんな楽しいzen garden 初めて見ました。
いろいろな枯山水があって当然です。
これこそが文化ですね。
こういう動画見てたら現代の日本人よりもよっぽど海外の方々のほうが日本らしさ？みたいなのわかってるのかもなって思うわ…
