FREE TEA CEREMONY
Keiko Kitazawa is an Omotesenke-style tea ceremony (Chanoyu) instructor, inaugural member of the Omotesenke Domonkai Eastern Region, USA.
She encourages her students to look beyond the routine practice of protocols, and reminds them that"Chaji", the formal tea gathering, is the ultimate manifestation of chanoyu's central concept: hospitality of the host to serve delicious tea in graceful manner and serene environment and to share a spiritually rich moment with the guests.
Taking time out of a busy day, sitting in a tearoom, emptying the mind of thoughts, listening to the sound of water boiling in the teakettle, and drinking a bowl of tea is such an exquisite pleasure.
