How many people actually Brew a Cup of Tea and spend a quiet moment during their weekends in real life?
Amidst a busy life, learn to enjoy life; brewing yourself a cup of clear tea brings about the Zen of emptying your mind.
Drinking Tea is about a state of mind, feeling your body and soul being purified, filtering out the restlessness, leaving behind profound contemplation.
On an evening with particularly fresh air, it's the most beautiful kind of evening; gazing at the sky under the setting sun by a tranquil windowsill, so quiet you can only hear your own breathing.
Take a deep breath and then exhale slowly; all the mundane worries of the world dissipate, leaving the whole person utterly tranquil.
In the misty vapor of the tea, amidst its faint aroma, taste the gentle bitterness, ponder thoughts be they intense or light.
Gently swirl the tea cup in your hand, watching the pale green leaves, be they needle-like or shaped like slivers, moving up and down, clustering together, rising and sinking, trying to find their ideal balance.
Sip the tea, letting the gentle bitterness spread across your tongue, filling your mouth and throat.
Then, take a deep breath, the lingering fragrance fills your lips and spreads through your lungs, washing away all fatigue and indifference.
You seem drunk, in a haze, reluctant to wake up for a long time.
At night, the room fills with the scent of tea, the tea in the cup turning from light to dark.
A long night with a heart of serene cultivation; there is no pretense or restlessness now, forgetting all gains and losses, all honors and humiliations, only a peaceful state of mind remains.
