Ceai!

Mi-am adus aminte astazi de o cartulie mica dar tare faina scrisa de Soshitsu Sen XV, maestrul scolii de ceai Urasenke. Am gasit un interviu cu el pe net, si mi-am zis ca un link spre el n-ar fi o idee rea:

- vorbeste despre valoare internationala a ceaiului:) si despre regasirea unei parti de umanitate prin el.
un extract:
"Far more than just a formalized tea party, the tea ceremony has deep roots in Zen philosophy. Driven by the four ideals of Wa, Kei, Sei, Jaku (Harmony, Respect, Purity, Tranquility), it strives to create a state of mind that brings peace to its participants. Tea masters, in fact, must study Zen Buddhism as part of their training. Dr. Sen took his Buddhist vows in 1949 at the Daitokuji Temple under Goto Zuigan Roshi, and he received his Buddhist name, Kyoshin, in 1973 under Kajiura Itsugai Roshi, the chief of Myoshinji Temple.
