Indoor Fountains: Piquant Sources Of Art, Imagery, And Peace

Indoor fountains do more than just adorn your home or work space. They are veritable sources of art, imagery and peace. A hand-crafted indoor fountain is created with the simple purpose of elevating you from the tiresome experiences of daily life to your innate potential for peace and creativity.

If you were straining your ears for something that is pleasingly simple, and simply pleasing, you will find that nothing beats the sound of tinkling water on hand carved bamboo. Bamboo remains one of the best conduits of natural sound. And the history of the flute and all other wind instruments that stemmed from it are testimony to this fact. And when this material meets water which sounds pleasing whether as a trickle or a roar, you can not help but close your eyes and retire to your zone of Zen for as long as you want. The sound is ceaseless and ever new, and your mind is rejuvenated and born anew each moment.

Many connoisseurs of art are sometimes stumped for the sight of something intangible, something, which forms the basis of a mental pallet that the artist within them can later fill with their own imagination. Among the many indoor fountains, the slate wall fountain, they have found, is the perfect catalyst for their imaginary artistic voyage. The sheerness of slate and the ever changing beauty of falling water over it combine the shapeless stability of stone with the formless nature of water, allowing you to simply use it as a canvas for your thoughts and your emotions. Each time you enter this realm, you create a whole new world, full of color and feeling, and when you are done, you feel drained of stress and tension, and are filled instead with a sense of contentment and peace.

Finally, if it is the heightened focus of meditation you seek, then the Buddha fountains are the perfect conduits that channel your random thoughts into the serene sound of the water and the intermittent images flashing in your eyes are replaced with the calm face of the Buddha. Soon, you will find that the tinkling sound of the water will fill all levels of your hearing and the face of the Buddha will impring itself in your consciousness, allowing you to experience a feeling of oneness that is a precursor to enlightenment. Incidentally, the word Buddha, means, 'the enlightened' one. Indoor fountains; they can take you there.
