In establishing a Zen garden or area, or even space in your mind, we should have a clear intention as to this space, which needs preparation, cultivation and then attention.
I will be addressing these topics individually over the next few weeks.
Cleanliness in the above regard is important.
If you look at any Zen garden you will notice that the borders are clearly defined and that the areas have clean lines, shapes and areas.
It wouldn't do to have a pebbly area full of weeds, unwanted random plants or a sandy area untidy or a murky pond or a clouded mind.
So you can see that continuous maintenance and supervision will be needed to accomplish this clean area, free of leaves, weeds or dust.
