“What have you learned from 50 years in the study of Chadō?
One of my favorite maxims/stories is from 16th century Japan.
The famous Tea Master, Sen no Rikyū, a National Living Treasure was retiring after over 50 years following Chadō, the way of Tea.
He was asked…
“What have you learned from 50 years in the study of Chadō?
He thought for a while, massaged his chin and replied…
‘Before Chadō Tea was just Tea, but as I became more involved in Chadō Tea became much more than Tea, finally, once I understood Chadō Tea was once again just Tea.
As always…
TRAIN YOUR WEAKNESS’ – WORK TO YOUR STRENGTH.
