It means a japanese tea ceremony.preparation and presentation the matcha.
The principle of cha-no-yu is the spirit of harmonious blending of heaven and earth and provides the means for stablishing universal peace.people of the present time have turned it into a mere occasion for meeting friends,talking of worldy affairs, and indulging in palatable food and drinks.besides,they are proud of their elegantly furnished tearooms,where sorrounded by rare objects of art,they would serve tea in a most accomplished manner,and deride those who are not so skillfull as themeselves.this is,however far being the original intention of cha-no-yu.
For this reason,the principle animating the tearoom,from its first construction down to the choice of the tea utensils,the tecnique of service the cooking of food wearing apparel and etc.is to be sought in the avoidance of complicated ritual and mere ostentation.the implements maybe old,but the mind can be invigorated. so that itbis ever fresh and ready to respond to the changing seasons and the varying views resulting therefrom.it never curries favor,it is never covetous.never inclined to extravagance,but always watchful and considerate for others.the owner of such mind is naturally gentle-mannered and always sincere---this is cha-no-yu.
I really love the japanese culture..β€β€
