Stillness is the nature of tea, and the ideal realm in Zen as well. Tea, without stillness, will not have gone deep into the cultures and exalted to the religious domain. Black-glazed teacups prevailed during the Song Dynasty, despite being born for the ‘Tea Fight’, usually conveyed a sense of peacefulness which is quite in line with the quintessence of the tea-zen culture. |
