What is Suikin Kutsu?
|
Pot
that has a whole in bottom is used. The pot is
buried into the ground with upside down. Put
water into it makes beautiful sound because
water hit the water on bottom of the bottle.
Some water is needed on bottom of the bottle
to make sound. If you bury the pot as usual,
it does not hold water properly, maybe too
much or too small. To hold proper amount of
water, very careful mixture of sand and stone
is needed.
