Japanese tea ceremony is an indoor traditional art, and this kind of tea is a special place completely divorced from daily life. The artistic ceremony held at a specific time must be completed through extremely complicated procedures and specific techniques. The following is the basic knowledge of Japanese tea ceremony that I carefully arranged for you. Let's have a look.

Basic knowledge of Japanese tea ceremony: The historical origin of Japanese tea ceremony originated in China and has the charm of oriental culture. It has its own formation, development process and unique connotation.

/kloc-At the end of 0/6th century, Morino Rixiong inherited and absorbed the spirit of tea ceremony in previous dynasties and founded authentic Japanese tea ceremony. He is a master of tea ceremony. By analyzing the spirit of Li Xiu tea ceremony, we can learn something about Japanese tea ceremony.

Zhuguang Murata once put forward? Sincerity, respect, purity and silence? For the spirit of tea ceremony, Mori no Rikyū only changed one word, to? And respect and silence? The four words are for the purpose, concise and rich in connotation. ? Quiet? Writing, too silent? . It refers to aesthetics. What is the concrete expression of this aesthetic feeling? Hey? In terms of language. ? Hey (わび)? The Japanese pronunciation is "wabi". Lonely? 、? Poverty? 、? Poor? 、? It means depressed. In peacetime? People? This word refers to those who are frustrated, down-and-out, depressed and lonely. To the end of peace, hey? What does it mean to evolve into? Silence? 、? Leisure? Meaning, became a beautiful consciousness that some people appreciated at that time.

This aesthetic feeling has its social and historical reasons and ideological roots: from the end of Heian to the Kamakura era, it was a period of social unrest and reorganization in Japan, when the former dominant aristocrats lost their power and the emerging samurai class stepped onto the political stage. The aristocrats who lost heaven felt impermanent and pessimistic, so the pure land Sect of Buddhism came into being. Frustrated monks regarded the society as filthy at that time and called on the people? Tired of leaving filth and longing for pure land? . Under the influence of this thought, many noble literati ran away from home, or lived in seclusion in the mountains, or wandered in the wilderness, built thatched cottages in Shan Ye, and lived in seclusion, creating the so-called? Cao An literature? In this way, I can express my nostalgia for the past and ease my anger. This kind of literature is gloomy in tone and style? Mysterious? .

Ethnicity

In the Muromachi era, commercial economy developed, competition was fierce, commercial activities were busy, and the city was luxurious and noisy. Many people hate this kind of life and pursue it? Hey (わび)? Aesthetic consciousness, find a secluded place in the suburbs or cities, live a secluded life, enjoy a little rustic pastoral life, seek spiritual comfort, and take cold, quiet and leisure as beauty.

Since the Kamakura era, a large number of Tang Song products have been shipped to Japan. Especially tea sets and works of art, add luster to the Japanese tea party. However, there has also been a trend of extravagance, blindly advocating the tea party in the Tang Dynasty and despising Japanese things. Zhuguang Murata, Takeno and other young men are keen on the art of tea ceremony, opposing extravagance and luxuries, and advocating poverty and simplicity. They think that the black pottery made in China is dark in color and has its simple and quiet beauty. Sincerely entertaining guests with this simple tea set is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also conducive to the cultivation of moral sentiments.
