Day 126 : Sado

In Japanese, "Do" means a road.
"Kyudo" means "Bow's road", a road to master Japanese archery.

Sometimes we say "Sumodo", a road to master Sumo.

Sado is a road to master tea ceremony.

In the past, I introduced my friend who is crazy about tea, who is not only looking at Japanese ceremony but many other types of tea.

I have never tried the tea ceremony, and that is not unusual for ordinary Japanese, if I may say.
But, as a Japanese, I think that I should experience it once, since some of the tourists from the other countries try in these places.

The places offer the oracular ceremonies to the more casual ones. Well, I need to check in one of these.

Word of the day:
oracular : 厳かな

Quote of the day:
“The tea ceremony requires years of training and practice ... yet the whole of this art, as to its detail, signifies no more than the making and serving of a cup of tea. The supremely important matter is that the act be performed in the most perfect, most polite, most graceful, most charming manner possible.”
