MORE THAN TEA.

during my study Tea became much more than Tea

One of my favourite parable-like stories is the one about the Japanese Tea Master Sen no Rikyū (千利休).

On his retirement he was asked what he had learned after dedicating his life to the practice of Chanoyu, the way of Tea, he answered.

Before Chanoyu Tea was just Tea, during my study Tea became much more than Tea, but in the end, once I finally understood, Tea, once again, became Tea.

For Richard Feynman, the world-famous theoretical physicist it was “If you can’t explain something in simple terms, you don’t understand it.”

We all overthink things, and it is at pandemic levels in Wing Chun.

We all somehow forget that the main principle is SIMPLICITY.
