Tea Ceremony

Picture


When we participate in tea ceremony we embody the energies of  earth, fire, water, wind and the sun, moon and stars that influenced the creation of the tea plant.  The abundance of the earth's gifts are experienced through every part of the ceremony:  yixing clay pots, bamboo tea utensils, a metal kettle, fire to heat the water, water to carry the tea ,and windy vapors to lift the aromas to our senses and beyond.
There are many different types of tea ceremony which can be divided into three branches:  outer (public), inner (private) and secret or hidden.  All occur to varying degrees simultaneously however, for simplicity we will describe: 

"OUTER": all types of teas, tea ware and people come together in this general informal tea gathering and/or formal event with a specific function dictated by tradition. The focus is on development of an abundant life and good health.

"INNER": this is tea for cultivation of non-physical abilities under proper guidance. This is tea of the formless to bring harmony and balance to the world and develop good character.

"SECRET": beyond description, hidden in plain sight, this is the art of the immortals, tea of the tea master,a mystery, the spirit of Tao.
