Description: Students of the way of tea learn temae — the procedures of preparing and serving sweets and tea — as well as guests’ behaviors for receiving tea and appreciating all the details of the tea event in, a mindful manner that focuses all the participants on the present moment and place. While at its heart, the most important aspect of the way of tea remains the simple and sincere exchange of refreshment between host and guest, tea study also encompasses art, architecture, literature, zen philosophy, history, and the crafts of metal, wood, bamboo work, ceramics, flower arrangement, textiles, and incense appreciation.
