yugen

• There are larger standing-on stones for those vistas and views, and also to create pauses for mediation on what has been seen or missed To see a Zen-garden fully, we will need the subtle vision of yugen —the Zen-gardener’s mastery of partly hidden views, of deliberately indistinct areas made relative to shadows, as well as an eye for the completeness glimpsed in partial reflections in water, and a full sense of the beauty of darkly revealed forms and layers of meaning. —  WorldsEnough ;Time
