Custom Orders

This Kamidana was a custom order for a Martial Arts dojo. It has a place of honour in the dojo. In the Japanese Martial Arts, a shrine is placed at the head of the dojo to honour the spirit of Budo - the training of ones mind and body.

By placing a Kamidana in the dojo we will always be aware that our energy is an expression of the universal energy. Our personal KI, and the universal KI are one.

"The secret of Aikido is not in how you move your feet. It is how you move your mind. I'm not teaching you martial techniques, I'm teaching you non-violence."

Founder of Aikido

This custom order was designed so that the owner could sit on her Zafu in meditation, and have her Buddha Statue at a comfortable eye level. She also wanted a place underneath for keeping books, and a space with sliding doors for storage.

This shrine was a custom order for the Mt. Baldy Zen Center. It is the focal point in the Zendo, housing the statue of buddha. The base is a cabinet, with sliding doors at the back, for storage.

In this custom order the owner already had the bell and wanted a stand for it. Everyday as part of his practice, he rings this bell. This large garden stand is built with traditional japanese joinery. Mortise and tennon joints held together with pegs and wedges.
