- Wabi sabi
The perfect imperfections and zen
Wabi sabi.. the idea of accepting the imperfections and even appreciate them. Zen is directly related to that idea.
This is the way I approach bonsai and how I want to transfer you my knowledge. The key is that not everything can and must be perfect. Even more.. it is ok and even more natural if you can accept this. This is one of many reasons why I called my business/school zen bonsai.
Be calm.. get into a mindfull state and enjoy the bonsai Journey. It is a Journey.. and that Journey needs to be more important than the destination.. bonsai is never finished and so the destination is never reached.
