saw observer website forwarded Qin Yimo's "Japanese Daihua" is essentially illiterate, the focus is on drinking tea, I really can't help but want to say a few words.
On the one hand, he said, why don’t the Chinese talk about “tea ceremony”? Because the word "Tao" is too strong, and what does it mean to Chinese people? It is the foundation, the seven things that open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, and things that go hand in hand with basic daily life. The Chinese have already domesticated tea, freed it from the tediousness of the past, and evolved it into a tea that every Chinese can drink today. On the one hand,
believes that the Chinese do not have a tea ceremony because the Chinese drink tea, not be drunk by tea.
On the other hand, he said why the Japanese pay attention to the tea ceremony. Because of the lack of tea ceremony, drinking tea has become a ritual culture to show solemnity. Do you think that if you now learn the Japanese tea ceremony backwards, your ancestors will be short of tea for you? Not only poor but also illiterate.
Many people think that drinking tea in China is very common, and it becomes a kind of etiquette when going abroad. Then they look down on Chinese people and call them idiots because they think tea ceremony is high-end and never seriously think about why they do it. These things are taken so seriously. But no one ever thought about themselves again.
China's tea culture has entered thousands of households since the pre-Qin period. The Western Han Dynasty Wang Bao's "Tong Yue " records that tea cooking equipment was available and tea was bought in Wuyang, which is the earliest record of drinking tea, buying tea, and growing tea. The thing about tea is enough to show that tea has already entered thousands of households as a daily drink. "Guang Ya" in the Han Dynasty records that when tea balls are drunk, they are crushed and mixed with boiling water. How can the complexity be simplified?
From Lu Yu "The Classic of Tea" came out, and then "Tea", "Jiancha Shui Ji", "Sixteen Soups" and other masterpieces about tea drinking came out one after another. is also enough to show that from to in the Tang Dynasty, we had our own tea ceremony.
What is our tea ceremony about? Expressing a person's etiquette through the activity of cooking and tasting tea is a way of cultivating one's self with tea. It is said to observe its color, smell its fragrance, taste its taste and understand its charm, which elevates the activity of cooking and tasting tea to etiquette, aesthetics and artistic conception. It is a behavioral art of spiritual and spiritual thought, which can enhance friendship, cultivate virtue, learn etiquette, drink tea and calm the mind, help cultivate sentiment and eliminate distracting thoughts.
Japanese tea ceremony originated from our Tang and Song Dynasties. Our own tea ceremony originated from the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty, but gradually disappeared in the Qing Dynasty. The only thing that remains now is the popular Kung Fu tea in the Fujian and Guangdong regions, which still retains part of the tea ceremony culture. I don’t inherit and carry forward my own culture. I just belittle others and make excuses. I don’t know if it’s sad or not. uses the incident of drinking tea to explain that Wa Daihua is essentially illiterate. It only shows that he himself is illiterate, which is really inappropriate.
