7 s h a k u o f w o n d r o u s g r a c e About this image Every December for many, many years, friends and family of Mr. Abe s eagerly awaited the arrival of his handmade Christmas cards. Exquisitely crafted and highlighting a topical subject or location, the cards delighted their recipients and were treasures to be enjoyed year after year. Each chapter throughout this book features a different card.
8 t h r o u g h t h e g a r d e n o f y o s h i m a r u a b e f o r e w o r d A traveler following the footsteps of Yoshimaru Abe would take a path that crosses the Pacific Ocean, the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia and across the prairies to Manitoba. The pathway would follow his life from a traditional, comfortable environment to the new frontiers of Canada; from the security of a close knit community to one that is scattered and isolated; from the struggle of survival to self fulfillment and recognition; and would find its way along the paths of many Japanese gardens he created. A well made Japanese garden reflects that same life journey. Its pathway is a symbolic journey; the garden is a balance of traditional and modern; it is alive and natural; it is deeply human, personal and spiritual. The garden is a treasure to be appreciated by those who are open to the quiet and the contemplative, and by those who seek to understand the connections between the present moment and the timeless past. The cultural connection of the garden is uniquely Japanese. To be open along the journey is to be open to learning the importance of the subtle and the understated, the values of humility and spirituality, and the profound connections among history, humans and the earth. Those who carry this understanding are a privilege to know. Among those whose understanding and wisdom are highly regarded is Yoshimaru Abe. Yoshimaru was the designer the gardener who brought to Winnipeg s Folklorama the award winning Japanese garden in the Japanese Pavilion. With sensitivity and wisdom beyond words, he helped create gardens for the pavilion, carefully selecting the components of rocks, moss, gravel and evergreens, and from these parts, creating a whole. Quietly and without fanfare he also helped create the garden at the Manitoba Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre (mjccc). The same gardener was the recipient of numerous international, provincial and community awards. Like many other Japanese Canadians, he faced the challenges of new immigrants; he suffered through the injustices of interni
9 s h a k u o f w o n d r o u s g r a c e ment, the difficulties of relocation, and the questioning and conflict around redress. He was an active member of his community as these challenges were faced. Yoshimaru Abe was also someone whose voice was trusted and honoured: he was called upon to speak countless times at important passages in the history of Japanese Canadians, at functions and funerals, and at moments when wisdom, a sense of history, and courage were most needed. In many ways, Yoshimaru Abe s life is not special or extraordinary; it is a life filled with hardship, sacrifice, accomplishment and reward. It is a life lived and governed in all respects by strong Buddhist beliefs where his everyday actions were a demonstration and expression of his faith. To Yoshimaru, how one addresses important issues was just as important as what one does or accomplishes. Throughout his life, his role was not necessarily one of directing or initiating change, but of nurturing and responding to an ever changing environment through thoughtful reflection and discussion. From the experience and insight acquired from years of surviving life altering challenges imposed upon him and his community, Yoshimaru became, for many, the embodiment of the spiritual values cherished by the Japanese community. His impassioned commitment to his faith, and his generosity in giving his energy to all around him, inspired the Buddhist name given at his funeral, and inspired the title of this biography. Reverend Fredrich Ulrich of the Manitoba Buddhist Church named him Shaku of Wondrous Grace. During his life, to many people in the Japanese Canadian community, in Manitoba and across Canada, Yoshimaru was fondly known as Abe san. Some of the central elements of the Japanese garden reflect the journey of Yoshimaru Abe. He lived through time and change; he found a way through difficult times and good times; and he shared his artistic vision. The Garden of Abe san On McPhillips Street in Winnipeg a Japanese garden embraces two sides of the Manitoba Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre. The garden makes a peaceful transition between the busy thoroughfare and the active Cultural Centre. The noise of the traffic beyond seems far away from the tranquil welii
10 t h r o u g h t h e g a r d e n o f y o s h i m a r u a b e come of the garden. The rocks, plants and sand of this garden were placed at Yoshimaru Abe s direction; his own capable hands cared for the whole. In fact, he quietly tended the garden on his own until he was over ninety years old. Yoshimaru himself was soft spoken, humble and reticent to speak. Visitors to the mjccc have come to know Yoshimaru as the gardener, raking the sand, meticulously caring for the greenery. For many people, just as the garden is part of the Cultural Centre, Yoshimaru is part of the garden. Like other fine works of art, the Japanese garden is not simply a collection of ingredients it is an expression of the artist, a connection between artist and other people. When we understand the elements of a Japanese garden, we can glimpse a part of the artist. The Japanese Garden: understanding the garden, understanding life A central element of a Japanese garden is that it is a place of subtlety, contradiction and imperatives. Running water symbolizes the passage of time; bridges symbolize a life s change, moving from one world to another. When we cross a bridge, we change our place in the garden and view it from a completely new perspective. The Japanese garden reflects the value of spiritual peace and contemplation. The connections between outward discord and inward harmony, between rough and smooth, and between violence and tenderness, must be understood in order to find tranquility. We are challenged to be whole and strong, to live in peace and harmony, even as we move through the roughest parts of the path and the harshest conditions in life. Among those harsh conditions are the changing seasons, part of the wonder of the Japanese Garden. The design calls us to find the beauty and peace in life when the conditions are cold, stormy and difficult as well as when they are warm, sunny and pleasant these changing times are all connected, and are vital experiences in our journey. It is also important to ensure that the Japanese garden and its surrounding landscape are a harmonious whole. Using regional, native materials, and iii

12 t h r o u g h t h e g a r d e n o f y o s h i m a r u a b e blending the elements together with skill and care, the artist will create a local garden with a universal appeal. The garden will convey a distinct connection to history and the timelessness of the earth, and at the same time the garden will be in harmony with the place in which it resides. The design of the Japanese garden is deliberate; it must be meticulously worked with a keen eye for the beauty of its elements, the careful assembly of materials, and the harmony of the parts. The artist must strive for a whole artistic expression, rather than a collection of many pieces. The artist with the keenest eyes and ears, and the most careful hands, works the Japanese garden into an art form that transcends the ordinary. In so doing, the artist connects the visitor to history and time in a personal, meaningful way. Finally, it is vital for a Japanese garden to be far more than the assembly of a particular collection of elements. Its effect must be greater than a collection of paths, rocks, greenery and bridges. It is a creation that draws us into a relationship with nature, with time, and with ourselves. The designer can achieve the right balance and harmony only if he or she has understood the human response to natural elements in a deeply personal, spiritual way. Yoshimaru Abe was one who walked the symbolic journey through the Japanese garden each day of his life. His quiet example was an inspiration to others to balance the traditional and the modern; to be deeply human and spiritual; to be contemplative and courageous; and to understand the connections between the present moment and our timeless past. This tribute takes us through the journey with this ordinary, extraordinary person. v
