商品説明
Why practice tea ceremony? The moment shared between guests in the tearoom is called “Ichigo Ichie” meaning “a once-in-a-lifetime encounter”. This philosophy is a central part of Japanese tea ceremony, reminding us that each moment is significant in life, despite the conflicts and troubles of the world. Under such circumstances, we practice tea ceremony to experience the spirit of Zen, which we believe helps us to reevaluate our own desires and perspectives on life.

The tea ceremony experience is more than just a ceremony.
Like many Japanese cultural aspects, it is connected to Zen Buddhism, and in Zen, as in tea ceremony, most concepts begin with the learning of gestures, forms, and movements. However, it is not only form that is important in Zen but also spirit. Through the movements of tea ceremony, we learn how to cultivate the mind and reach inner peace. These practices are not mere ritual, but a way of considering why each process is important, connecting us deeper to our practical lives.
As part of this program, you will go through the processes of a traditional Japanese tea ceremony with a national qualified tea master, who will prepare for you a traditional Japanese confection and matcha green tea. Following the ceremony, the master will explain to you the fundamentals of Zen practice, as well as the importance and role of tea utensils and the art of the Japanese tea room. With this knowledge, we hope to share with you the undamental tenets of the Japanese spirit.
*All our tea ceremony experiences are conducted by nationally certified tour guides who have practiced tea ceremony for more than five years.
