About Zen Garden and Kaizen

Zen gardens, also called Japanese rock gardens, appeal to people who like carefully controlled settings of raked sand or rocks and precisely clipped shrubs.
In the sixth century, Zen Buddhist monks created the first zen gardens to aid in meditation. Later, they began using the gardens to teach zen principles and concepts.
Kaizen is a Japanese term meaning "change for the better" or "continuous improvement."
It is a Japanese business philosophy regarding the processes that continuously improve operations and involve all employees.
