Tea, the last of the seven essentials for daily life, is also a refined aspect of living.
Every daily activity has its own order in life. Only after the basic needs like firewood, rice, oil, salt, and Soy sauce are met, does tea come into play.
Tea is a spiritual nourishment that comes after satisfying one's physical needs, offering enjoyment beyond the material. It represents our pursuit of a fulfilling life.
Drinking Tea invigorates us and enhances our quality of life.
A bowl of tea refreshes the spirit, dispels fatigue, brings leisure, fosters friendship, and stirs up ripples of Beauty in life.
A person who enjoys tea naturally harbors a deep love for life, emotions, and existence; here there is the scholarly aroma of inkstones and brushes, the lingering melody of music, and the Zen-like serenity and freedom of classical gardens with their winding paths.
Tea brings you tranquility. Slowly boiling water, gently infusing the tea, the aroma fills the air, the leaves unfurl, and the Brew deepens, permeating body and soul.
With tea by your side every day, soothing your worries and calming your mind, it will be your companion for a long time.
In times of frustration and distress, cleanse your weary heart with a cup of tea, sipping your way to peace and bliss.
The Huangdi Neijing says, “The heart is the ruler of all organs, from which spirit emerges,” referring to the “heart-spirit.” “Sipping alone touches the soul,” reaching the heart.
Mastering the art of listening to your own heart and engaging in self-dialogue creates a profound inner world.
To love tea, one doesn't need to be an expert; falling in love with tea brings serene years of contentment.
