The core idea of the spirit of the tea ceremony, the four spiritual characteristics of the Chinese t

The core of traditional Chinese culture is harmony as the source of Chinese culture, the Book of Changes, which evolves into eight trigrams and then sixty-four hexagrams, respectively, a variety of yin and yang combination states, intuitively telling that nature and all things are composed of two different elements, yin and yang, yin and yang correspond to each other, interdependence, and interconnection. Yin and Yang are properly and orderly combined, people and things.

When you find out the connotation of the spirit, relatively speaking, the essence of the connotation of the spirit of the tea ceremony is equivalent to tasting tea and appreciating tea, etc., which is still very good.

The core of the investigation is mainly about drinking tea in 10,000 acres, such a habit, mainly because of such a situation.

The four spiritual characteristics of the Chinese tea ceremony mainly refer to the four aspects of "Yi", "Qing", "Harmony" and "Truth". Yi refers to pleasantness and nourishment, referring to both physical and mental aspects; Qing refers to honesty, integrity, suffering, pure heart, pure silence, etc., mainly emphasizing the purity of people's body and soul, which is in line with the thought of "Taoism"; The Chinese nation has always advocated the golden mean, making friends with tea, entertaining guests with tea, and friendship with tea. Truth refers to sincerity and trustworthiness, not falsehood, is the embodiment of the Taoist philosophy of "the unity of heaven and man", and "truth" is more in line with the Taoist thought in traditional Chinese culture and the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.

About the tea ceremony. The tea ceremony originated in China, flourished in southern China and Japan, and the sencha ceremony in Japan and the tea ceremony in Taiwan are all in the Gongfu tea in Chaozhou, Guangdong, China. The royal family has a royal tea ceremony, and the mortals have a mortal tea ceremony; There is a vulgar tea ceremony, a Zen tea ceremony, a Taoist tea ceremony, and so on.

In a word, the way to appreciate the beauty of tea depends on their own aesthetics.

The spirit of the Japanese tea ceremony.

Although the Japanese tea ceremony originated in China, it has become a comprehensive cultural and artistic activity in Japan due to its natural integration with religion, philosophy, ethics, and aesthetics in the unique environment of the Yamato nation. The spirit of the Japanese tea ceremony can be condensed into four words: "harmony, respect, purity, and silence". At the end of the 16th century, Sen no Rikyu inherited and absorbed the spirit of the tea ceremony from Murata Zhuguang and others.

"Harmony" refers to harmony and harmony; "Respect" refers to purity, honesty, mutual respect and love between the host and the guest; "Clear" and "silent" refer to the quiet and elegant environment and atmosphere inside and outside the tea room.

The spirit of the tea ceremony and the culture of tea are two concepts, and the spirit of the tea ceremony is the core of the tea culture. The tea ceremony is also known as the embodiment of Taoism, and the Tao is natural. Here, what nature is, not to mention mysterious, I think nature is life for people.

Therefore, the spirit of tea is life, a natural life.

1. Self-cultivation. Tea ceremony, there are many classifications, sencha ceremony, tea ceremony, etc. Tea ceremony tea drinking, as we all know, complex and exquisite, from tea washing to tea tasting, each step has its own set of procedures, fixed actions.

It's not easy to do this well. It would be even more difficult to understand the reasons and why they were to understand the reasons for them.

Therefore, the tea ceremony has become a science, and some universities even set it up as a subject or major. This is because it does have something. If you want to master it, or enjoy it, you need to work hard.

It is a kind of requirement for oneself, a kind of pursuit, and it is also a process of constantly improving oneself, improving oneself and influencing others. So, that's also a practice.

2. Practicability. Tea is too mysterious, and it is not appropriate. Produced in China, it is still used by the general public after all.

This is also in line with the "Tao", we say that Buddhism "entered the WTO", and Taoism "was born". In fact, on the contrary, throughout thousands of years of history, when wars and chaos make the people struggling to make a living, Buddhists often "close their doors", put down the butcher's knife, and become a Buddha on the spot.

Taoism is different, and pays attention to helping the world. What about the peaceful and prosperous times? The Buddhists are full of incense, but the Taoists are in seclusion and practice.

I think this is one of the reasons why tea has become the embodiment of the Tao. It is low-key and high-key, pure and rich, lonely and warm, it is dialectical and unified. In daily life, it belongs to the toiling people, and it is also high-end, upper-class, and reclusive.

Every type of person, every Chinese child, can find sustenance in it. So it's practical.

Slim and practical, this is nature, this is life. Therefore, the spirit of tea is life, a self-cultivation and practical natural life.

The spirit of the tea ceremony is that it must be mellow, and you must be patient when making tea, just like people.

The core of tea culture is the tea ceremony, but the spirit of the tea ceremony is different in each place.

In fact, the spirit of tea is life, just like the process of drinking tea, the process from complex to simple also fully shows the state of life.

The spirit of tea ceremony is the core and soul of tea culture.

By making tea, appreciating tea, and drinking tea, we can enhance the friendship between friends, and at the same time, it is also conducive to our self-cultivation and learning etiquette. The process of drinking tea can play a role in calming the mind and calming the nerves, helping to cultivate sentiment and eliminate selfish distractions, which is very similar to the tranquility advocated by Eastern philosophy, and embodies the introspection and self-cultivation ideas of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

The spirit of the tea ceremony is the heart and soul of tea culture. Mr. Zhuang Wanfang summarized the basic spirit of the Chinese tea ceremony as sincerity, beauty, harmony and respect. He explained:

Honesty and frugality, beauty and integrity, integrity and respect for others. Honest, advocating honesty, thrift and system, famous products, delicious coexist, Chinese regard the Tao as a complete ideological and theoretical system, the law of the universe, the law of life.

Therefore, the Chinese do not say easily, unlike Japanese tea has a tea ceremony, flowers have a flower ceremony, and incense has an incense way. Under the influence of the idea of selling in the name and the way of the Tao, the tea people of all generations have not given an accurate definition since they used the tea ceremony. It is only in recent years that different interpretations of the tea ceremony have become more popular.

The basics of the tea ceremony:

1. Warm utensils. Rinse all tea utensils with boiling water, and then drain the teapots and teacups, the purpose of the warmer is to increase the temperature of the tea utensils, so that the temperature of the tea leaves is relatively stable after brewing, and at the same time play a role in cleaning.

2. Set up tea. Tea is to put tea leaves, put a certain amount of tea leaves into the pot and cup of tea, the number of tea leaves varies with different tea leaves, and there are also personal preferences.

3. Brew. After the tea, the boiling water is poured into the pot, usually the flush is eight minutes full, the brewing time is generally about 5 minutes, the more brewing times, the longer the steeping time.

4. Before pouring the tea.

The brewed tea should be poured into the sea of tea first, and then poured from the sea of tea into the guest's teacup.

The spirit of the tea ceremony is the core of tea culture.

The spirit of tea ceremony is the core of tea culture, but also the essence of tea culture, the spirit of tea ceremony is the highest principle to guide tea cultural activities, according to the spirit of tea ceremony can be engaged in tea cultural activities, and the spirit of tea ceremony is contained in harmony, quietness, ease, truth, through the spirit of tea ceremony, content, culture, etc., we can better engage in tea activities, and can better inherit and carry forward tea culture.

Tea culture connotation:

The continuous integration and collision of thousands of years of tea drinking customs and traditional Chinese culture condenses and refines the spirit of Chinese tea ceremony, that is, "harmony, tranquility, pleasure and truth". Among them, "harmony" is the core of the philosophical thought of the Chinese tea ceremony, "tranquility" is the only way to practice the Chinese tea ceremony, "Yi" is the unique enjoyment of the Chinese tea ceremony, and "truth" is the ultimate pursuit of the Chinese tea ceremony.

"Harmony" is a common philosophical concept of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, which means the harmony of heaven, earth, and man, and the organic unity and harmony of all things in the universe, and thus produces the harmonious beauty after realizing the unity of heaven and man. Tea saint Lu Yu believes that the process of boiling tea is the process of "metal, wood, water, fire, and earth" and achieving harmony and balance.

The material used in the manufacture of the furnace is iron, from "gold"; Boiled tea burned is charcoal, from "wood"; Cooking tea soup on the stove, from "water"; The furnace is placed on the ground, from the "earth"; Charcoal burns, from "fire". This is also the idea of "Baohe Yamato" in "Zhou Yi".
