Intended to please the eye as much as the palate, they are crafted to reflect the four seasons, so many different kinds are produced at specific times of the year.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXLvyJ4EI/AAAAAAAACB0/wQSfkJ07dSU/s1600-h/IMGP0055.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826167136510018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXLvyJ4EI/AAAAAAAACB0/wQSfkJ07dSU/s320/IMGP0055.JPG" border="0" /></a> Spring wagasi are formed into shapes that reflect the <span style="color:#ff0000;">exuberance </span>and <span style="color:#ff0000;">glory</span> of this season.<br /><br />Transparent jelly is used to give summer treats <span style="color:#3366ff;">according</span> appearance. This wagasi is intended to evoke the feel of <span style="color:#ff0000;">water weed</span> waving in a <span style="color:#ff0000;">chilly stream</span>.<br /><br />Traditional autumn confections reflect the colours of the turning leaves and seasonal fruits. The onset of winter is represented by wagasi like these.<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXLRqIrNI/AAAAAAAACBs/bgwLyODtu2Q/s1600-h/IMGP0053.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826159049813202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXLRqIrNI/AAAAAAAACBs/bgwLyODtu2Q/s320/IMGP0053.JPG" border="0" /></a> Traditional confections are almost always made by hand. With a delicate touch, the ingredients are fashioned into <span style="color:#ff0000;">exquisite</span> <span style="color:#3366ff;">representations</span> of nature's beauty. Confectionery craftsmen often use sophisticated techniques to make to colours look more natural. Seen close-up , the petals of this cherry-blossom wagasi look slightly <span style="color:#ff0000;">paler</span> in the centre. Some white dough is sandwiched between two layers of pink dough, and the wrapped around a ball of sweet bean paste. This creates a delicate colour gradation, with the white layer gleaming faintly through the pink. Traditional confectioners draw on skills of this kind to express the beauty of nature in each season in a <span style="color:#ff0000;">subtle</span> way.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXL5m-4gI/AAAAAAAACB8/ZuJqj9SNnAM/s1600-h/IMGP0057.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826169774006786" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXL5m-4gI/AAAAAAAACB8/ZuJqj9SNnAM/s320/IMGP0057.JPG" border="0" /></a> In ancient times, very few sweet things were available in Japan, so nuts and fruits were highly prized. </div><div>Some time around the 8th century, simple confections were brought into Japan from China. Their <span style="color:#ff0000;">ingredients</span> were rice and flour, and they were deep-fried. </div><div>In the mid-16th century, a major<span style="color:#ff0000;"> revolution</span> <span style="color:#ff0000;">occurred</span> in the history of Japanese confections. European trading ships arrived, bringing <span style="color:#ff0000;">confections</span> using a lot of sugar,which,up to that time, had been a rare delicacy in Japan.<br />Confections using a lots of sugar were widely considered as luxuries, and in the middle of the Edo period they became very popular.

This is a form of tea known as macha that has been drunk in Japan for over 800 years. Like other kinds of Japanese tea, macha is made from the dived leaves of the tea plant. However, in the case of macha, the leaves are ground to a fine powder. The way it's served is very different,too. To prepare <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">ordinary</span></strong> green tea, hot water is simply <span style="color:#ff0000;">poured</span> over the leaves in a teapot. The tea is infused and then poured out. The leaves remain in the pot, so they are not directly <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>consumed</strong></span>. </div><div> Now let us see how macha is placed directly in the bowl from which it will be drunk. Hot water is added, using a bamboo scoop. Then it is <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">whisked</span></strong> <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">briskly</span></strong>, using a special tea whisk, also made from bamboo. Once the tea is <span style="color:#ff0000;"><em><strong>properly</strong></em></span> mixed with the water, it is ready to be drunk.</div><div> The start of the tea harvest is in April or May, depending on the region. Macha is a high-quality kind of tea because it is made from the first leaves of the year, <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>nipped </strong></span>while they are still <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>budding</strong></span>. Each leaf is carefully <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">plucked </span></strong>by hand one at a time. Tea bushes grow best in places with direct sunlight and on slopes that are well <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>drained</strong></span>. However, in the plantations where the tea is to be made into matcha, reed screens and straw are placed on frames over the tea bushes to avoid direct sunlight. Reducing the amount of light gives the leaves a greater depth of flavor. This method was developed during the EDO period to protect the tea bushes from frost damage in order to ensure that the SHOGUN and his court would have a stable supply of high-quality tea. Because macha was considered so valuable, it was carried to the SHOGUN's capital in elaborate processions. </div><div> These days, macha is no longer confined to the tea ceremony. Here is an array of dessert, all made with macha. The unique fragrance and flavour of green tea go well with diary products,so it is perfect as an ingredient in Western deserts. Because macha is regarded as a healthy drink, and can be used as an ingredient in many types of food, today its <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">popularity</span></strong> is gradually spreading around the world.<br /></div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FXBLZhVjI/AAAAAAAACFs/DHpMe9kPj-4/s1600-h/nara+032_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427214703709476402" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FXBLZhVjI/AAAAAAAACFs/DHpMe9kPj-4/s320/nara+032_R.jpg" border="0" /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-5393215187167631806?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-16793710500200289372010-06-16T07:52:00.004+09:002010-06-19T22:36:05.765+09:00I have introduce you about the bonsai <a href="http://shely0o0.blogspot.com/2009/08/japanese-habit-bonsai1.html">here</a> .<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfHU6-UkI/AAAAAAAABw8/oSmjcSfhszQ/s1600-h/IMGP0039.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414486862741787202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfHU6-UkI/AAAAAAAABw8/oSmjcSfhszQ/s320/IMGP0039.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />A reflect B :　AはBを表している<br /><br />Dry landscape gardens reflect Zen ideas.<br />These wagasi reflect the coming of spring.<br /><br />the most common type of bonsai are pines.　代表的な<br /><br />dry lanscape garden:枯山水<br />pines:松の総称<br />Japanese apricot:梅<br />maple:カエデ<br />azalea:サツキ<br />zelkova:ケヤキ<br />horticulture：園芸<br />pastime:娯楽、気晴らし<br />seedling:苗木<br />craftsman:職人<br />cultivate:栽培<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfHAJiuwI/AAAAAAAABw0/g9AY2ACrcRg/s1600-h/IMGP0044.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414486857165748994" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfHAJiuwI/AAAAAAAABw0/g9AY2ACrcRg/s320/IMGP0044.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGxaOolI/AAAAAAAABws/X3hAwsk1otQ/s1600-h/IMGP0046.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414486853209203282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 268px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGxaOolI/AAAAAAAABws/X3hAwsk1otQ/s320/IMGP0046.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGjNLLjI/AAAAAAAABwk/rPEUNpuw1CU/s1600-h/IMGP0047.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414486849396354610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGjNLLjI/AAAAAAAABwk/rPEUNpuw1CU/s320/IMGP0047.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGKmhcmI/AAAAAAAABwc/bk4DC13jXiY/s1600-h/IMGP0048.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414486842791785058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SyQfGKmhcmI/AAAAAAAABwc/bk4DC13jXiY/s320/IMGP0048.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-1679371050020028937?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-42202104709002639492010-06-09T17:09:00.001+09:002010-06-09T17:09:00.179+09:00Travel is fun. Travel is exciting. But it is not fun or exciting if you get sick. You may think,"Not me. I won't get sick on my vacation!"But , for many people, that is what happens.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWgPpMmtI/AAAAAAAACA8/2zMsSgpLaec/s1600-h/IMGP0043.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825419774630610" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWgPpMmtI/AAAAAAAACA8/2zMsSgpLaec/s320/IMGP0043.JPG" border="0" /></a> Of course you do not want to spend your vacation sick in bed. If you have heart trouble, you do not want to make it worse. So what can you do to stay in good health? There are three things you should remember when you travel: relax,sleep, and eat well.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfmpAzHI/AAAAAAAACA0/VH6-yLe5xLU/s1600-h/IMGP0039.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825408768003186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfmpAzHI/AAAAAAAACA0/VH6-yLe5xLU/s320/IMGP0039.JPG" border="0" /></a> A vacation is supposed to be a time for relaxing. But very often it is not. Think about what you do when you are a tourist. There are so many places to visit: <span style="color:#ff0000;">museums</span>,shops,parks and churches. You may spend most days walking around these places. This can be very <span style="color:#ff0000;">tiring.</span> Your feet may hurt. You may have a terrible headache after a few hours. If this is the way you feel, you should take a rest. Do not ask your body to do too much. A tired body means a weak body. And a weak body gets sick easily. So sit down for a few hours in a nice spot. In good weather. look for a quiet park bench. Or you can stop at a cafe. you can learn a lot by watching people while you rest.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfWl_EwI/AAAAAAAACAs/zYNWczoOHTY/s1600-h/IMGP0038.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825404460339970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfWl_EwI/AAAAAAAACAs/zYNWczoOHTY/s320/IMGP0038.JPG" border="0" /></a> Sleep is also important. If you want to stay healthy you need to get enough sleep. you may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel. Your hotel room may be noisy or the bed may be uncomfortable. If this is true, do not be afraid to change rooms or hotels. Or, you may not get enough sleep for another reason. You may want to stay out late at night. In many cities the night life can be very exciting. Then you should plan to sleep for an hour during the day. That extra hour can make a big difference.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfHPSQcI/AAAAAAAACAk/1uMIQzdfm3k/s1600-h/IMGP0037.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825400338596290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWfHPSQcI/AAAAAAAACAk/1uMIQzdfm3k/s320/IMGP0037.JPG" border="0" /></a> Finally, if you want to stay healthy, you must eat well. That means eating the right kinds of foods. Your body needs fresh fruits and vegetables, and some meat, milk or cheese. When you are in a new country, you may want to try new foods. But your need to be careful about how much you eat. Lots of rich food is not good for you.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWe43459I/AAAAAAAACAc/YEaIwhKQvrY/s1600-h/IMGP0036.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825396482369490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWe43459I/AAAAAAAACAc/YEaIwhKQvrY/s320/IMGP0036.JPG" border="0" /></a> So, remember this: if you want to enjoy your vacation, take good care of yourself. Give your body some rest. Get enough sleep and eat good, healthy food.<br /><div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-4220210470900263949?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-57260423447878029442010-06-08T16:58:00.001+09:002010-06-08T16:58:00.473+09:00The human brain is divided into two sides, or hemisphere, called the right brain and the left brain. The two <span style="color:#ff0000;">hemispheres</span> work together, but each one <span style="color:#ff0000;">specializes</span> in certain ways of thinking.Each side has its own way of using information to help us think, understand, and process information.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5TYbeII/AAAAAAAAB80/krFqEGApusI/s1600-h/IMGP0004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419822551739889794" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5TYbeII/AAAAAAAAB80/krFqEGApusI/s320/IMGP0004.JPG" border="0" /></a> The left side of the brain controls language. It is more <span style="color:#ff0000;">verbal</span> and logical. It names things and puts them into groups. It uses rules and likes ideas to be clear, logical, and orderly. It is best at speech, reading,writing,and math. You use this side of the brain when you memorize spelling and grammar rules or when you do a math problem.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5qVAJ3I/AAAAAAAAB88/IlTHFzuW0Lc/s1600-h/IMGP0005.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419822557899532146" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5qVAJ3I/AAAAAAAAB88/IlTHFzuW0Lc/s320/IMGP0005.JPG" border="0" /></a> The right side of the brain is more visual and creative. It <span style="color:#ff0000;">specializes </span>in using information it receives from the sense of sight,sound,smell,touch,and taste. This side of the brain likes to dream and experiment. It controls your appreciation of music,color,and art. You use this side when you draw a picture or listen to music.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5LIyVfI/AAAAAAAAB8s/s72Okyvd38k/s1600-h/IMGP0003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419822549526795762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT5LIyVfI/AAAAAAAAB8s/s72Okyvd38k/s320/IMGP0003.JPG" border="0" /></a> Although we all use both sides of our brains,one side is usually stronger or dominant. Some people are more "left-brained", and others are more "right-brained". Our dominant side influences the kinds of jobs and hobbies we have. Politicians, artists,architects,and musicians depend on their right brains. Accountants,engineers,doctors,and lawyers usually <span style="color:#3333ff;">rely on</span> their left brains.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT47DGZdI/AAAAAAAAB8k/M2TK_WPHWhE/s1600-h/IMGP0002.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419822545207977426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcT47DGZdI/AAAAAAAAB8k/M2TK_WPHWhE/s320/IMGP0002.JPG" border="0" /></a> *** jok!***</div><div>"Doctor, you've got to help me.

Everyone knows it is autumn when pumpkins begin to appear at roadside stands. Soon afterward, pumpkins will decorate doorsteps at Halloween. Then they'll be part of Thanksgiving holiday decorations. They'll also be <span style="color:#3333ff;">baked</span> into breads and pies. Farmers will know winter is near when morning <span style="color:#ff0000;">frost</span> is on the pumpkin.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bhH3Bg2MI/AAAAAAAACOE/vC6tnQB1J8M/s1600-h/IMGP00021.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433277525614713026" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bhH3Bg2MI/AAAAAAAACOE/vC6tnQB1J8M/s320/IMGP00021.JPG" border="0" /></a> Every autumn there are pumpkin festivals held all over the country. They are a type of harvest celebration. Pumpkin queens and kings are named. Prizes are given for the biggest or the best-decorated pumpkin, or the best tasting pumpkin pie.With the help of <span style="color:#ff0000;">fertilizers</span> some pumpkins have been grown to the size of a small car.<br /> Pumpkins are popular with children, not so much for eating as for making jack-o-lanterns at Halloween. Most Americans do not realize that this tradition comes all the way from Ireland and Scotland. It originated over 2000 years ago with the Celts who lived in what is now France and the British Isles. They celebrated a harvest festival on October 31. It was a <span style="color:#ff0000;">joyous occasion</span>, but also in some ways a sad one. It marked the beginning of the long,dark,cold winter. They believed that in the darkness, the spirits of the dead walked upon the earth. Great fires were built on the hills to protect the people from bad spirits. People hollowed out <span style="color:#ff0000;">turnips</span>, a root plant, and put a candle inside. They carried them if they went outside to protect themselves from evil spirits.<br /> When the settlers came to America, they brought their customs with them. They did not have turnips, so they used pumpkins instead. Today, of course, children look forward to Halloween and the <span style="color:#ff0000;">carving </span>of pumpkins. First the pumpkins is <span style="color:#ff0000;">hollowed</span> out and the seeds and <span style="color:#ff0000;">pulp </span>taken out. Then funny or scary faces are carved into the side. In the evening, a candle is put inside and the face glows in the dark. Sometimes pumpkins are painted and decorated. As Halloween approached, jack-o-lanterns pop up on doorsteps everywhere.<br /> After Halloween, Americans look forward to the Thanksgiving holiday. Pumpkins and corn plants are often used decorations during this time. They symbolize autumn and the spirit of the season. It is a time of giving thanks for the harvest for the family, and for all the good things that families enjoy.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-9189189745933843569?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-57350866940469960852010-06-05T21:37:00.001+09:002010-06-05T21:37:00.254+09:00it is not easy catching up with the busiest teen in show business(her new CD, Oops!

We think of it as a candy, but once it was a medicine. Today, chocolate can be a hot drink, a frozen <span style="color:#3333ff;">dessert</span>, or just a <span style="color:#3333ff;">snack</span>. Sometimes it is an ingredient in the main course of a meal. Mexicans make a hot chocolate sauce called mole and pour it over chicken. The Mexicans also eat chocolate with spices like chili peppers.<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ3MnqrwI/AAAAAAAACNM/P_C5FigWgyI/s1600-h/IMGP0008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433269542772715266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ3MnqrwI/AAAAAAAACNM/P_C5FigWgyI/s320/IMGP0008.JPG" border="0" /></a> Chocolate is a product of the tropical cacao tree. The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys say "ugh!" and run away. Workers must first dry and then roast the beans. This removes the bitter taste.<br />The word "chocolate" comes from a Mayan word. The Mayas were a ancient people who once lived in Mexico. They valued the cacao tree. Some used the beans for money,while others crushed them to make a drink. When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too. Because the drink was strong and bitter, they though it was medicine. No one had the idea of adding sugar. The Spaniards took some beans back to Europe and opened cafes. Wealthy people drank cacao and said it was good for the <span style="color:#ff0000;">digestion</span>.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ2iDaCKI/AAAAAAAACNE/x-BCF6Ud2oI/s1600-h/IMGP0007.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433269531346340002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ2iDaCKI/AAAAAAAACNE/x-BCF6Ud2oI/s320/IMGP0007.JPG" border="0" /></a> In the 1800s the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao. It quickly became a cheap and popular drink. Soon afterward, a factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate. Later on, another factory mixed milk and chocolate together. People liked the taste of milk chocolate even better.<br /><div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ2YXIaoI/AAAAAAAACM8/8ggJqaXs-mE/s1600-h/IMGP0006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433269528744716930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bZ2YXIaoI/AAAAAAAACM8/8ggJqaXs-mE/s320/IMGP0006.JPG" border="0" /></a> Besides the chocolate candy bar, one of the most popular American snacks is the chocolate chip cookie.

It is the sound of a magic spell spreading through the air. The spell has been cast by J.K.Rowling, whose magic wand is very plain. It is a pen.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNfGsNNFI/AAAAAAAACDE/SC3KY9E0U-s/s1600-h/IMGP0002.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427204222725469266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 252px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNfGsNNFI/AAAAAAAACDE/SC3KY9E0U-s/s320/IMGP0002.JPG" border="0" /></a> Rowling is the English author of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone and Harry potter and the Chamber of Secrets. This month her third book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, arrived in U.S bookstores. Just like the first two Potter books, The new one is taking off faster than a speeding broomstick!<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNesr3HYI/AAAAAAAACC8/Uk24qUnk71g/s1600-h/IMGP0001.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427204215744699778" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 220px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNesr3HYI/AAAAAAAACC8/Uk24qUnk71g/s320/IMGP0001.JPG" border="0" /></a> Harry is an <span style="color:#ff0000;">orphan</span> boy with a lightning-bolt scar on his forehead. He lives in England with Mr and Mrs. Dursley, his <span style="color:#ff0000;">nasty</span> aunt and uncle, and their <span style="color:#ff0000;">greedy</span> son Dudley. When Harry is 11, he finds out that his parents were a witch and wizard. He is a wizard, too. Harry is invited to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Before long, he is waving a wand, meeting ghosts and mixing potions!<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNeF3w8TI/AAAAAAAACC0/bIkqTpz8QMc/s1600-h/IMGP0003.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427204205325644082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 278px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNeF3w8TI/AAAAAAAACC0/bIkqTpz8QMc/s320/IMGP0003.JPG" border="0" /></a> The idea for Harry just "<span style="color:#ff6666;">stroll</span>ed into my head," says Joanne Rowling. "I still do not know where he came from!" Kids sure are glad he's here. The first two Potter books are hits all over the world. They appear in 28 languages!<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNd4KI8SI/AAAAAAAACCs/q1hgApfEsZI/s1600-h/IMGP0004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427204201644618018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 232px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FNd4KI8SI/AAAAAAAACCs/q1hgApfEsZI/s320/IMGP0004.JPG" border="0" /></a> Anna Hinkley,9,of Santa Monica,California,has read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"seven or eight times". Will Schultz, 11,from Raleigh,North Carolina,is also a fan."It has all the things I like-humor,action",says Will.</div><div>Rowling plans to write one book for each of the seven years that Harry goes to Hogwarts School. How will it all end? She offers only one clue: the last word of the last book is scar. Only Rowling knows what that means, but the rest of us will have lots of fun finding out!<br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-5602295512908840373?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-6734807606488103972010-06-01T23:01:00.000+09:002010-06-01T23:25:54.203+09:00Tokyo and Los Angeles are similar in some ways, different in many others. The two cities have a lot in common. They are both <span style="color:#ff0000;">cosmopolitan</span> ports on the Pacific Ocean. Both have tall buildings, freeways, and thousands of neon signs. Baseball and American rock music are very popular in both cities. They also share many of the same problems: too many cars on the freeways,air pollution, and the possibility of earthquakes.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakGCXxe8I/AAAAAAAAB7E/g7wnwsWsnLg/s1600-h/IMG_0156_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699625209723842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakGCXxe8I/AAAAAAAAB7E/g7wnwsWsnLg/s320/IMG_0156_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Now let's look at three of the main differences: their people,transportation and weather. Los Angeles is a city of minorities and immigrants. More than half of its <span style="color:#ff0000;">inhabitant</span>s are <span style="color:#ff0000;">minorities</span>: Hispanic Americans, Black Americans, Asian Americans, and immigrants. Mexicans,Central Americans, Chinese,Japanese,Koreans,Filipinos,Vietnamese,and other Asians make up the largest groups of immigrants and refugees. Many of these people are still learning English. In contrast,Tokyo has almost no minorities. Many foreigners live there, but most of them are not immigrants. Tokyo's public transportation is much better than L.A.'s.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakFY5QTjI/AAAAAAAAB68/aAR1sukUyNg/s1600-h/IMG_0155_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699614075866674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakFY5QTjI/AAAAAAAAB68/aAR1sukUyNg/s320/IMG_0155_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Although Los Angeles has an excellent system of freeways, it does not have a subway, and the buses are very slow. In contrast, Tokyo probably has the best system of railroad,subway, and bus lines in the world. About twenty million people use it every day.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakE6ANPfI/AAAAAAAAB60/ENhYs1PfKD4/s1600-h/IMG_0152_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699605783526898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakE6ANPfI/AAAAAAAAB60/ENhYs1PfKD4/s320/IMG_0152_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Neither city has a bad climate, but most people agree that L.A's weather is more pleasant. L.A. is drier and sunnier that Tokyo. Winters in Tokyo are cool, but snow is quite rare. Summers there are hot and humid. In contrast, L.A. has mild, sunny winters and hot summers. Spring and fall are the most comfortable seasons in both cities.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakEUpu-PI/AAAAAAAAB6s/Gghts5wOFmw/s1600-h/IMG_0151_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699595757156594" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakEUpu-PI/AAAAAAAAB6s/Gghts5wOFmw/s320/IMG_0151_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Tourists love to come to both cities and not just because there is a Disneyland near each of them!</div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-673480760648810397?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-88170271207527363082010-05-08T17:10:00.002+09:002010-05-08T18:55:37.505+09:00A stand of bamboo <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">thrusts</span></strong> upwards towards the sky. The stems are slender and elegant. Their surface a <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">vibrant </span></strong>fresh green , the leaves <span style="color:#ff0000;">rustling</span> softly in the <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">breeze</span></strong>.<br /> For people in Japan, the beautiful colour and gentle whisper of bamboo have a special place in their hearts. Because it is so light, strong and easy to works, bamboo makes a very <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>versatile</strong></span> material.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcW4L3qzsI/AAAAAAAACBk/xZ8Ha5iq8m8/s1600-h/IMGP0052.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825831078448834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcW4L3qzsI/AAAAAAAACBk/xZ8Ha5iq8m8/s320/IMGP0052.JPG" border="0" /></a> These baskets are for displaying flower arrangements. Bamboo's innate flexibility is put to superb use in weaving these elegant forms. The walls of many houses in kyoto have low curving fences known as inu-yarai,which protect the walls and stop them from getting splattered with <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">mud</span></strong>. They make a graceful addition to these traditional street scenes.<br /> Shishi-odoshi are lengths of bamboo that slowly fill with water and then empty out, making a knocking sound. In the past, they were used to <strong>scare away</strong> animals and birds, but now people just like the <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>rhythmic</strong></span> sound.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcW37O2r7I/AAAAAAAACBc/xFN_yHSC9vk/s1600-h/IMGP0051.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419825826612293554" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcW37O2r7I/AAAAAAAACBc/xFN_yHSC9vk/s320/IMGP0051.JPG" border="0" /></a> Bamboo grows very rapidly, with some species gaining a metre or more per day. Because of its remarkable vitality and strength, the people of ancient Japan revered bamboo as having mysterious powers. <br /> The tanabata festival is celebrated on July the seventh. Legend has it that two lovers, represented by the stars <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Vega</strong></span> and <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Altair</span></strong> in the milky way, are only allowed to meet once a year on the seventh night of the seventh month.<br /> On this day, people write their wishes for the future on slips of paper and tie them to bamboo branches.

In the yuzen method, colourful designs are painted directly on the fabric. This is a furisode, a long-sleeved kimono created by living National Treasure KIMURA UZAN. The motifs feature<span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong> seasonal</strong></span> birds, trees and flowers, using designs similar in style to those in traditional Japanese painting.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXZMmjZ_I/AAAAAAAACCM/LdGscae0-C4/s1600-h/IMGP0059.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826398210779122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXZMmjZ_I/AAAAAAAACCM/LdGscae0-C4/s320/IMGP0059.JPG" border="0" /></a> Because of their exquisite beauty, yuzen kimono have remained popular throughout the centuries. The techniques for dyeing yuzen kimono are not used in other methods of dyeing. Seen close-up, the white outlines of the flower patterns are clearly visible. These lines, which separate the different colours, are one of the <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>distinguishing</strong></span> <span style="color:#ff0000;">features</span> of yuzen dyeing.<br /> The white lines are the result of applying starch onto the fabric. Once the design has been sketched using a soluble vegetable ink, starch is applied over the lines. At the end of the process, when the <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">starch</span></strong> and the original outlines are washed out, the natural white colour of the fabric will be left visible. The lines covered with starch prevent the days from spreading onto other areas of the fabric. This technique means that many different shades of <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>dye</strong></span> can be used to colour the designs on each kimono. The final process in yuzen is to wash the fabric. Water drawn from underground is used. The water in Japan is generally soft. Ideally, it should also have a very low iron content to bring out the vibrancy of the colours. This step is so essential that yuzen is sometimes called "the art of water". <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXY5RkfdI/AAAAAAAACCE/tOe6Kn9mG38/s1600-h/IMGP0058.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826393022496210" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXY5RkfdI/AAAAAAAACCE/tOe6Kn9mG38/s320/IMGP0058.JPG" border="0" /></a> The yuzen dyeing process is named after MIYAZAKI YUZENSAI, an extremely popular fabric painter during the EDO period. Yuzen kimono often feature motifs taken from nature. It is a style that still remains popular today. Since ancient times, people in Japan have had a strong <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>affinity</strong></span> for the beauty of nature. and in yuzen kimono various elements of nature are <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>meticulously</strong></span> depicted to give the kimono an elegant look. This style of kimono resonates with the Japanese people, and beautiful designs of nature are far more important than the <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>fluctuations</strong></span> of <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>mere</strong></span> fashion.<br /> To this day, designs of this kind continue to be loved by people in Japan.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-5601081275426045304?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-89451229923143834702010-05-03T16:54:00.001+09:002010-05-04T07:54:14.657+09:00<strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">Thrusting</span></strong> elegantly up into the sky, this is Tokyo tower. With a total height of 333 meters,, it is still the tallest self-supporting steel structure in the world.<br />In Japan, the first sunrise of the year is considered hugely <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">significant</span></strong>. The tower's <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>observation </strong></span>platform is <span style="color:#ff0000;">crowded</span> with people on the morning of January the first. It also draws numerous sightseers throughout the year-and over the past half century it has welcomed some 150 million visitors.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTGI_6obI/AAAAAAAAB78/fBjSm2HmF3c/s1600-h/IMGP0002.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419821672779391410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTGI_6obI/AAAAAAAAB78/fBjSm2HmF3c/s320/IMGP0002.JPG" border="0" /></a> After TV broadcasting began in 1953, people in Japan were captivated by this new medium. Tokyo Tower was built to deliver TV signals to the kanto Region. It was the world's tallest tower, and it lifted people's hopes skyward as a new Japan rose from the<strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"> ashes</span></strong> of war.<br />Construction began in 1957,Including scaffolding workers,<span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>blacksmiths</strong></span>,painters and other skilled workers, a total workforce of 220,000 was assembled. Construction was completed in 1958. On April the tenth,1959, some 15 million people watched live coverage of the <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>parade</strong></span> that followed the wedding of the Crown Prince to Princess MICHIKO. It was about three months after the tower went into operation.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTHMgX-iI/AAAAAAAAB8U/xsMTDnKeqrA/s1600-h/IMGP0018.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419821690900707874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTHMgX-iI/AAAAAAAAB8U/xsMTDnKeqrA/s320/IMGP0018.JPG" border="0" /></a> In 1964, the summer Olympic games were held in Tokyo. During the Games, lights were placed up the sides of Tokyo Tower in celebration. In 1988, Tokyo Tower celebrated its 30th <span style="color:#ff0000;">anniversary</span>. To mark the occasion, the illuminations were upgraded. Instead of the lights just marking the outline of the tower, the entire structure was bathed with <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>floodlights</strong></span>. This display had a Major impact, changing the look of Tokyo's night-time cityscape.<br />Now half a century has passed, and Tokyo tower will soon be passing on the torch. A new TV transmission tower is being built in Tokyo.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTG7njQoI/AAAAAAAAB8M/pJfv-TEKy_w/s1600-h/IMGP0017.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419821686367404674" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcTG7njQoI/AAAAAAAAB8M/pJfv-TEKy_w/s320/IMGP0017.JPG" border="0" /></a> Nevertheless, Tokyo Tower remains the focus of a belief that is popular among young people. It is called the lights-out legend. It is believed that if a couple watches the lights of Tokyo Tower being <span style="color:#ff0000;">switched</span> off, they will always be happy together.

Each of the children has a home-made bento to tuck into. The term bento is used for portable meals,usually packed in a special container.<br />The bento is an essential part of Japanese life. It is early in the morning, and a mother is preparing a bento for her child. She not only fills the bento box with ingredients, but also exercises her <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>ingenuity</strong></span> in creating the colour-scheme and even the shapes of the items. Using a cutter in the shape of a cherry blossom, you can cut KAMOBOKO fish paste or ham into petal-shaped pieces. Arranged over rice, this gives a bento the perfect springtime accent.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUyuy8mxI/AAAAAAAAB-E/ZhYk8yF-_ag/s1600-h/IMGP0014.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823538351414034" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUyuy8mxI/AAAAAAAAB-E/ZhYk8yF-_ag/s320/IMGP0014.JPG" border="0" /></a> This bento has been created for lunch at a school sports day to encourage a child to do their best in the replay race. The faces are made of ham, and the hats are composed of carrot and fried egg white. The bento has become a medium of communication, a way for the creator to express their feelings for the person who will eat it.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUy8vYRZI/AAAAAAAAB-M/kX8GKLyTgco/s1600-h/IMGP0015.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823542094546322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUy8vYRZI/AAAAAAAAB-M/kX8GKLyTgco/s320/IMGP0015.JPG" border="0" /></a> Not all bento are home-made,many shops sell them. Convenience store chains are constantly developing new varieties, and often see a significant spike in the number of customers when they come up with a bento that is particularly popular. The bento sold at main stations are called ekiben. Each area-and even each individual station is likely to have its own speciality. Often the packaging, and the container itself, will have a <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>distinctive</strong></span> design.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUyfcRDSI/AAAAAAAAB98/XUBRJAnOQ9o/s1600-h/IMGP0013.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823534229753122" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUyfcRDSI/AAAAAAAAB98/XUBRJAnOQ9o/s320/IMGP0013.JPG" border="0" /></a></div><div>This one is shaped like a sinkansen bullet train. It is filled with items that appeal to children, such as spaghetti and mini hamburger patties. There is plenty of pork meat in this bento, and it is sold in a pig-shaped <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">container</span></strong>. It comes with a lid that has a slot in it. So when you have eaten the food, it has another use - as a piggy bank.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUx2qTpHI/AAAAAAAAB90/NpuUEbJ1hRc/s1600-h/IMGP0012.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823523282789490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUx2qTpHI/AAAAAAAAB90/NpuUEbJ1hRc/s320/IMGP0012.JPG" border="0" /></a> bento originated as simple packed meals such as rice balls carried by travellers. But over the centuries, they became more and more <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>elaborate</strong></span>. This is what a bento for a blossom-viewing party would have looked like during the edo period. It contains a variety of foods that were considered luxuries in those days. Recently, some high-class restaurants have begun offering meals in a single container, such as a basket. They are also called "bento"because they reflect the basic concept of filling a container with various delicious ingredients.<br />bento continue to develop. They have become <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">edible canvases</span></strong> that showcase the skills and imagination of their creators.<br /></div><div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUxr1ZZEI/AAAAAAAAB9s/EOHP2NpwWbI/s1600-h/IMGP0011.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823520376513602" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUxr1ZZEI/AAAAAAAAB9s/EOHP2NpwWbI/s320/IMGP0011.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-7798934016963662515?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-34211842903764917752010-04-25T19:58:00.001+09:002010-04-25T22:56:07.858+09:00For people in Japan, rice and fish are two of the primary pillars of the diet. Served as SUSHI, they have long been a favourite delicacy, Biting into the rice and its seafood topping, the flavours and textures blend and melt together to produce a delectable depth of flavour. This type of SUSI is called NIGIRI-ZUSI.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S7MrF3J3pRI/AAAAAAAACf4/DVuwRNU58Ns/s1600/IMGP0008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5454750953380488466" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S7MrF3J3pRI/AAAAAAAACf4/DVuwRNU58Ns/s320/IMGP0008.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><p>Each portion consists of a bite-sized serving of vinegared rice and a topping. In the sushi world, the toppings are called NETA. Usually, the NETA is some kind of seafood. Many kinds of fish are served. both red and white, shrimp and squid, all kinds of shell fish.. There are a <span style="color:#ff6666;"><strong>tremendous</strong></span> <span style="color:#ff6666;"><strong>variety</strong></span> of toppings, In the Jargon of the sushi shop, the rice base for the sushi is known as the SARI. The chef blends vinegar into steaming-hot, freshly cooked rice, using a paddle. It takes skill to mix the vinegar into the rice without crushing the individual grains. </p><p>Next the rice must be fanned to blow away the excess moisture as it cools down. The sugars in the vinegar form a coating around each <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>grain</strong></span> of rice. This stops them from becoming sticky and seals in the flavour. This is the technique for preparing susi: while the NETA is held in the left hand, the shari rice is formed with the right hand.</p><p>A dab of wasabi horseradish is smeared onto the underside of the NETA. In a matter of seconds, the susi is ready. In ancient times, susi was a means of preserving food through a fermentation process. Originally, only the fish was eaten, the rice was just for packing around it. It was in the early years of the 19th century that susi developed into the form that we recognize today. By this time, people in the city were starting to enjoy greater affluence, and there was growing demand for greater variety in their diet. New kinds of food were developed to match the informal style of eating at food stalls. This was how NIGARI-ZUSI came into being. </p><p>Over time, what began as a method for preserving fish developed into Japan's most famous food that today is eaten around the world.</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-3421184290376491775?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-11270237070717385212010-04-07T22:37:00.003+09:002010-04-11T22:24:05.926+09:00The 53 stations of the TOKAIDO was first published about 170 years ago. and several editions were subsequently produced. The TOKAIDO was the main highway linking EDO with KYOTO, the old capital, and its route can still be traced to this day.<br /> It was first laid out some 400 years ago, after EDO became the SHOGUN's capital. The 53 stations of the TOKAIDO series includes 55 points, depicting the 53 stops along the route, plus the starting and end points, EDO and KYOTO.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S7yKkFCv6gI/AAAAAAAAChw/-ChoycFQGpI/s1600/IMGP0052.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457389200899828226" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S7yKkFCv6gI/AAAAAAAAChw/-ChoycFQGpI/s320/IMGP0052.JPG" border="0" /></a> The series was the creation of the celebrated UKIYO-E artist UTAGAWA-HIROSHIGE, also known as ANDO HIROSHIGE. The first print in HIROSIGE's 53 stations of the TOKAIDO <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>depicts</strong></span> NIHONBASHI in the centre of EDO. It shows the bridge in the early morning, as work begins for the day at the busy fishmongers' wharf. The retinue of a DAIMYO-one of the great <span style="color:#ff0000;">regional</span> lords-advances across the bridge. It is a dynamic picture, showing the <span style="color:#ff0000;">hustle</span> and <span style="color:#ff0000;">bustle</span> of daily life.<br /> HIROSIGE's <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>vibrant</strong></span> portrayals of the varied people, weather conditions and seasonal landscapes found along the route tapped into people's <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>yearning</strong></span> to travel. The tagline for the series was "View as realistic as actually being there". This was why they were so popular they made people feel they'd been transported to these scenes.<br /> This print is titled "Driving Rain at SHOMO". Here travellers have been caught in a sudden summer cloud burst. Three make their way uphill, two of the carrying a man in palanquin, while others dash down the slope, heading for shelter. The superb use of shading and colour gradations imbues the scene with a <strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">lyrical</span></strong> depth. In his works, HIROSHIGE made masterful use of a woodblock print technique called BOKASI, which is used to create a range of shading, from dark to light.<br /> There are several styles of BOKASI. HIROSHIGE preferred a technique called FUKI-BOKASHI. First the plates are moistened. Then the<span style="color:#ff0000;"> </span><strong><span style="color:#ff0000;">pigment</span></strong> is applied with s brush. The image is then impressed onto the paper, using a baren, a traditional rubbing pad. This process is repeated several times, producing subtle gradations in colour.

Everywhere you look, there are petals in elegant, subtle shades of pink. And they scatter in the wind to create a dreamy atmosphere. the cherry blossom is regarded as an iconic flower of Japan. And, in fact, for many Japanese, it is synonymous with the world 'flower'. More than 300 different varieties of flowering cherries grow around the country. Cherry blossoms have long been used as a design element in various ways. These lacquered bowls are decorated with blossom motifs. And here, a lacquered box for storing letters... By depicting cherry blossoms on everyday objects like these, people have managed to suggest and enjoy a sense of spring. Since ancient times, people have admired all kinds of flowers and composed poetry inspired by them. It was around the 10th century that cherry blossoms became prominent as one of the motifs of spring. They are <span style="color:#ff0000;">refereed</span> in many of the <span style="color:#ff0000;">narratives</span> and poems written around that time.<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6OR-u53i9I/AAAAAAAACfw/LysgcX8w2M0/s1600-h/IMGP0026.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450360480977095634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6OR-u53i9I/AAAAAAAACfw/LysgcX8w2M0/s320/IMGP0026.JPG" border="0" /></a> It is because the Cherry blossoms fall, That they are beautiful in the eyes of all. Nothing is eternal in the world we live in.<br /> The aristocrats of that time saw their own mortal lives reflected in the Cherry blossoms that bloom and fall all too quickly. After the start of the Edo period, 400 years ago, blossom-viewing caught on as a form of entertainment for ordinary townspeople. When the cherry blossom season arrived, people would gather, taking food and drink with them, and have boisterous parties. For some people, this was a way to vent their daily frustrations. In the middle of the 19th century, a new variety of flowering cherry called SOMEI-YOSHINO was created. It was distinguished by the austere beauty of its large whitish flowers, SOMEI-YOSHINO cherry trees only bloom for a particularly short period of time, and their petals seem to start dropping almost as soon as they've opened. This dovetails perfectly with the traditional Japanese aesthetic sensibility that finds beauty not only in blooming flowers but also in the way they flutter to the ground.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6OR-VMixBI/AAAAAAAACfo/F7yZEOIM_As/s1600-h/IMGP0027.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450360474076103698" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6OR-VMixBI/AAAAAAAACfo/F7yZEOIM_As/s320/IMGP0027.JPG" border="0" /></a> In the traditional Japanese worldview, the transience of life is felt through the changing seasons. At the same time, the aesthetic of understated beauty is valued highly. For over 1000 years, people in Japan have perceived the cherry blossom to be the mirror of their sensibility.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-7542712498908133308?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-41738239540036098082010-04-02T22:41:00.000+09:002010-04-02T22:41:00.362+09:00In Japan, more than 700,000 couples get married each year, and wedding ceremonies are <span style="color:#ff0000;">diverse</span> in style.<br />1.The ceremony is being held at a church. It is said that more than 60 percent of all Japanese wedding ceremonies are Christian-style. And many Japanese women dream of wearing a Western-style wedding dress.<br />2.Shinto wedding,held at a shrine. The couple take matrimonial vows before a deity of Japan's ancient religion. In this setting, the bride is usually dressed head-to-toe in white. White is a sacred colour representing absolute purity. It symbolizes her immaculate heart, which from now on, will take on the "colour" of the family she is marrying into. There is a ritual involving sake at this type of wedding. The bride and groom sip sacred sake-three sips from each of three cups, making nine sips in all. This <span style="color:#ff0000;">repetition</span> of the lucky number three expresses <span style="color:#ff0000;">gratitude</span> to <span style="color:#ff0000;">ancestors</span> and a wish for many <span style="color:#ff0000;">descendants</span>.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_JjkTANI/AAAAAAAACfg/3eANDHtEEU0/s1600-h/IMGP0025.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450339776191463634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_JjkTANI/AAAAAAAACfg/3eANDHtEEU0/s320/IMGP0025.JPG" border="0" /></a> Now let us take a look at the history of marriage in Japan. 1000 years ago, during the age of the Heian nobility, it was common for an aristocratic couple to live separately and for the husband to visit his wife only at night. Back then, Japanese <span style="color:#ff0000;">aristocratic</span> society was<span style="color:#ff0000;"> polygamous</span>, and a man night several different wives.<br />In the 13th century, when the clans with the greatest <span style="color:#ff0000;">military</span> strength flourished, it became typical for a bride to move in with the groom's family. She was expected to take care of <span style="color:#ff0000;">domestic </span><span style="color:#ff0000;">matters</span> and to guarantee the <span style="color:#ff0000;">prosperity </span>of the clan by bearing strong sons.<br />During the Edo period, emphasis was placed on the relationship was placed on the relationship between two families, as opposed to two<span style="color:#ff0000;"> individuals</span>. This resulted in more marriages that ignored the feeling of the couple themselves. The growing <span style="color:#ff0000;">desire</span> for relationships based on personal feelings gave rise to numerous works of fiction that dealt with-and-romanticized-forbidden love. Some were presented as Bunraku and kabuki plays, and received accolades from the masses.<br /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_JOZ9cqI/AAAAAAAACfY/esOiDpf_bJ4/s1600-h/IMGP0024.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450339770510963362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_JOZ9cqI/AAAAAAAACfY/esOiDpf_bJ4/s320/IMGP0024.JPG" border="0" /></a> Huge changes came to the institution of marriage in Japan following the second world war. In 1946 the new constitution was promulgated. It proclaimed that marriage should be freely entered into by a man and a woman.<br />Today, most Japanese get married of their own free will, regardless of their parents' opinion.Along with the trend towards globalization, more and more Japanese are tying the knot with partners of different nationality. Slowly but surely, the institution of marriage is changing to mach the times.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_IxM4jKI/AAAAAAAACfQ/UazVtdH4uyA/s1600-h/IMGP0023.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5450339762671488162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S6N_IxM4jKI/AAAAAAAACfQ/UazVtdH4uyA/s320/IMGP0023.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-4173823954003609808?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-16247109788331143612010-04-01T22:00:00.000+09:002010-04-01T22:00:06.524+09:00A bowl of hot, <span style="color:#ff0000;">glistening</span> white rice ... Rice has long been the staple food of Japan, and it still makes frequent appearances on the dining table. For many people in Japan, a sense of <span style="color:#ff0000;">nostalgia</span> is evoked by images of farmers planting seedlings or harvesting rice with the beautiful natural scenery of the season as a backdrop. Japan produces about 10 million tons of rice a year, maintaining near-100-percent self-sufficiency in rice. In a country of low overall food self-sufficiency, rice is unique and special. There are many ways to eat rice, but the standard way is to eat it plan. The flavour of rice is relatively simple, so all sorts of side dishes go well with it.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S3VQ5e5tflI/AAAAAAAACZs/YAuhejM78qw/s1600-h/IMGP0019.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437341073597627986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 116px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S3VQ5e5tflI/AAAAAAAACZs/YAuhejM78qw/s320/IMGP0019.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Onigiri rice balls have long been popular. They can be eaten with one hand and are easy to carry around. To make an onirigiri, the rice is firmly shaped into a ball around a filling, of which there are many varieties, such as grilled salmon, KONBU seaweed and cod roe.<br /><br />2. CHASUKE: Ingredients are placed on top of a bowl of rice, and hot green tea is poured over them. It makes an ideal light meal.<br /><br />3. Another popular way to enjoy rice is to eat with a simple topping of <span style="color:#3366ff;">raw egg</span> and <span style="color:#ff6600;">soy sauce</span>. there are now even restaurants that specialize in this dish.<br /><br /><p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S3VQ5En15TI/AAAAAAAACZk/02C_9tAONBA/s1600-h/IMGP0020.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437341066543359282" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 185px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S3VQ5En15TI/AAAAAAAACZk/02C_9tAONBA/s320/IMGP0020.JPG" border="0" /></a> Since ancient times in Japan, prayers for a bountiful rice harvest have given rise to many festivals and rituals. At festivals held to pray for a good harvest, known as OTAUE-MATURI, planting is accompanied by cheerful singing. In olden times, there was also a rite called SUMAI NO SECHIE, in which SUMO bouts were held at the Imperial court. Now regarded as Japan's national sport, SUMO was once a ritual to pray for a beautiful rice harvest. Rice was also used to pay taxes in the old days. TOYOTOMI HIDEYOSI unified the country in the 16th century and reformed the tax system, but it was never the less based on rice. He ordered a survey of entire country's paddy fields to find out how much rice they could field. Based on its findings, the standards for taxation were established</p><p> The sataus of a feudal lord then came to be determined by the amount of rice that could be harvested in his domain. Even today, Japan's agriculture centres around the production of rice. Rice the production of rice. Rice ripening in paddy fields... It is , and has always been, a source of bountiful joy for the Japanese.</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-1624710978833114361?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-6126963677270655852010-03-27T23:25:00.000+09:002010-03-27T23:25:00.496+09:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S5O3Y8s7olI/AAAAAAAACcY/Ddhi4cXOopc/s1600-h/DCF_0017.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5445898013660389970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S5O3Y8s7olI/AAAAAAAACcY/Ddhi4cXOopc/s320/DCF_0017.JPG" border="0" /></a><br />*Terms Concerning the chanoyu<strong><span style="color:#ff0000;"> Ideology</span></strong><br /><div></div><div>SUKI(数寄) Aestheticism; then endearment of the poetic.</div><div></div><div>CHASUKI(茶数寄) Chanoyu aestheticism; to endear chanoyu as poetic activity.</div><div></div><div>WABISUKI(侘数寄) Chanoyu aestheticism based on the idea of WABI.</div><div></div><div>WABI(侘) The<span style="color:#ff0000;"> exquisite</span> beauty to be discovered and appreciated in things that are simple and quiet</div><div></div><div>SABI(さび)　Rust; sense of patina</div><div></div><div>SUKISHA(数寄者)　Aesthete; particularly a chanoyu aesthete.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-612696367727065585?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-88218068330847811302010-03-26T21:00:00.001+09:002010-03-26T21:00:09.671+09:00**the nature of the implements<br /> For the connoisseurship of chadogu, the wabisuki concept is to be kept in mind. wabisuki implements possess or should possess the seven qualities described hereunder. They may be regarded as the qualities that determine their aura, as mentioned in the section above.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj4ETKglI/AAAAAAAAB6k/RMBsSN1RycU/s1600-h/IMG_0149_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699385209094738" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj4ETKglI/AAAAAAAAB6k/RMBsSN1RycU/s320/IMG_0149_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Asymmetry. Instead of being perfectly round or square, the article has a dent, is warped, or is somehow otherwise asymmetrical. Distaste for such qualities as perfect, prim, punctilious.<br /><br />2. Simplicity. Being plain and simple. Distaste for such qualities as precision, complexity, clever fine work.<br /><br />3. Tall and withered. A presence like a leafless tree standing in the snow; not totally withered, but evoking the sense that when spring arrives it will sprout buds. Distaste for such qualities as rich, flowery, young.<br /><br />4. Naturalness. Innocence and non-worldliness; freedom from device This is not the same as being like nature in the wild, but means distaste for artificiality, artifice, and affectation.<br /><br />5. <span style="color:#ff0000;">Subtlety</span> and Profundity(yugen,幽玄). Modesty, lingering effect, nebulosity, suggestiveness. Distaste for overt expression<br /><br />6. Non-vulgarity. Freedom from worldly fetters. distaste for <span style="color:#ff0000;">worldly</span> glory, riches, human entanglements.<br /><br />7. serenity. Quietude, composure, solitude. Distaste for busyness, bustle, turmoil, and the like.<br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3y8mfKI/AAAAAAAAB6c/6cXPXLqakHo/s1600-h/IMG_0146_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699380551056546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3y8mfKI/AAAAAAAAB6c/6cXPXLqakHo/s320/IMG_0146_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Besides the matters of form, balance, and aura, the above qualities are important standards in selecting chadogu. We may also say that implements that have these qualities can be regarded as good wabisuki implements. However, not all chanoyu implements <span style="color:#ff0000;">necessarily</span> possess all seven of these qualities equally. sometimes, some of the qualities are strong, while the others are weak.<br /><br />Also,even though these qualities were the basis for connoisseurship, because there was a broadened interpretation of them after the 17th century, art works and crafts that do not <span style="color:#ff0000;">necessarily</span> fit into these descriptions came to be taken up as chadogu. Therefore, chanoyu art became complex and, in a way, hard to understand. Nonetheless, the standards of chanoyu art lie in the work's form, balance, and aura, and the above-listed qualities characterize them.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3sTGo3I/AAAAAAAAB6U/iOx2QN6-v70/s1600-h/IMG_0145_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699378766390130" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3sTGo3I/AAAAAAAAB6U/iOx2QN6-v70/s320/IMG_0145_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> * The distinctive features of chanoyu objects of art<br /></div><div> 'Chanoyu objects of art' constitute one genre of Japanese art, and within this genre, there are many types of art, including writings and paintings, crafts, and so on. Also, in that each of the articles well expresses some characteristic of Japanese art, it is possible to view chanoyu as representative of 'Japaneses art'. We may also consider that the artistic sense found in chanoyu influenced many field of Japanese art. This <span style="color:#ff0000;">influence</span>, however, was not of equal measure across all field of crafts and especially pottery.</div><div> Also, chanoyu not only has its artistic quality. One characteristic of it is that its artistic quality is just one element of it. Chanoyu can not be considered on the basis of standards of art, especially Western standards of art. Looking at chanoyu and its relation to Japanese art, it is possible to point out as follows:<br /></div><div>1. chanoyu was established later than Japanese art</div><div> In chanoyu, the tea drinking method that entered the country in the early 13th century was established as an art form in the16th century because, therefore, it was later in developing than such arts as painting, sculpture, architecture,literature, or music, it was influenced by them.</div><div> </div><div>2. The wellspring of the chanoyu aesthetic sense</div><div> The chanoyu <span style="color:#ff0000;">aesthetic</span> sense, based on the wabisuki ideal, denied overt <span style="color:#ff0000;">decorativeness </span>and pursued the spiritual. However, after the 17th century, it accepted Chinese art objects that it had once eliminated, and also accepted newly recognized Japanese craft products, and we thus have a mixture of works not necessarily based solely on the standard of the wbisuki idea.</div><div> </div><div>3. the incorporation of natural phenomenon and literary works</div><div> Many works incorporated in chanoyu are on themes from nature, or literary themes, and there are many that were given MEI(銘,a poetic appellation or proper name). Therefore, by learning chanoyu one becomes attuned to the Japanese view of nature and gains education from literature.<br /></div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3LLxIEI/AAAAAAAAB6M/d9bY-JPMtTo/s1600-h/IMG_0142_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699369877250114" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj3LLxIEI/AAAAAAAAB6M/d9bY-JPMtTo/s320/IMG_0142_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> 4. the importance of balance between the parctical and other considerations concerning chanoyu implements</div><div> When taking up articles as chanoyu implements, one asks oneself what the item is to be used for and if it is suitable for that purpose. In other words, keyed to the choice is the consideration of the item's use. Consequently, one would not use something chosen as a tea bowl as a receptacle for waste-water(kensui,建水). At the sme time, not only is there consideration given toward whether the item wil harmonize with the other implements , but also, the selective eye is focused on its harmony within the tea room, tea making, and purpose of the tea gathering.<br /></div><div>5. the spread of the chanoyu aesthetic</div><div> Because chanoyu implements were bought and sold at high prices, their makers created them according to the tastes of the people involved. In other words, the chanoyu aesthetic was clearly in mind. Therefore, the chanoyu aesthetic has inevitably influenced general crafts to some extent.</div><div> </div><div>6. the unique standards of value in chanoyu</div><div> The crafts from around the world, and across many fields, that have been taken up in chanoyu have not necessarily been the most splendid articles in terms of artistic quality or <span style="color:#ff0000;">craftsmanship</span>. Since they always were chosen from the viewpoint of the aesthetic of wabisuki, they consequently were not chosen because they were the most splendid works of that country or in that field,but rather , because they represented the wabisuki aesthetic. therefore. within the realm of Japanese art, there is the tendency to consider chanoyu art as something unique.</div><div> </div><div>7. Importance placed on past transmission</div><div> Furthermore, for chadogu, attention is given to who owned the piece, where it was preserved, and so forth regarding its history. In fact, such matters may be considered more important than the piece's artistic or technical qualities. The sense of respect toward the person who originally owned the piece has probably altered the value of the piece, providing added value that falls under the factor called its 'transmission.'</div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj27_6ZvI/AAAAAAAAB6E/-beMi7a4Bac/s1600-h/IMG_0141_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699365800994546" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szaj27_6ZvI/AAAAAAAAB6E/-beMi7a4Bac/s320/IMG_0141_R.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-8821806833084781130?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-63701793030351630852010-03-25T18:30:00.004+09:002010-03-25T18:30:01.302+09:00**chanoyu objects of art are uniquely japanese and are valued in a special way<br /><br />* the particular characteristics of chanoyu implements<br /> A long process was involved for the ideology underlying chanoyu to become refined, but finally the concept of wabisuki was reached, and chanoyu based on wabisuki was judged to be the epitome. Consequently, we may say that the beauty of chanoyu consists in the <span style="color:#ff0000;">concretization</span> of the wabisuki concept. let us then <span style="color:#ff0000;">inquire</span> into just what the beauty of wabisuki is.<br /> Looking at the chadogu that have come down to present times, the following characteristics may be pointed out:<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmFORHQjI/AAAAAAAACSM/hQ8kdShDxX0/s1600-h/写真00053.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433282977872691762" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmFORHQjI/AAAAAAAACSM/hQ8kdShDxX0/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00053.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Variety: they are basically chosen according to the wabisuki concept<br /><br /> the interpretation of wabisuki, and how it has been evaluated, has differed quite a bit depending upon the era and the person, and so it is impossible to theorize about it in a single breath, although it inevitably is based on the wabisuki concept. Concretely, there is a mixture of implements centering on Chinese karamono that were used to decorate kaisho(会所) gathering places, wabi implements based on the wabisuki concept, konominono(好み物,favored items) and handmade(手造り) items which mainly arose due to the establishment of the IEMOTO sysytem, and new chadog centering on European products selected by morden sukisha.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmEh0N6VI/AAAAAAAACSE/yEROaBiAr28/s1600-h/写真00052.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433282965940332882" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmEh0N6VI/AAAAAAAACSE/yEROaBiAr28/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00052.JPG" border="0" /></a> 2. Practicality. They are usable for chanoyu.<br /><p> Of importance are its form(nari,なり), balance(koro,ころ), and<span style="color:#ff0000;"> aura</span>(yosu,ようす), and if the article does not qualify in these respects, it is not taken up. The item itself has to be of proper weight and balance, and it must not destroy the harmony among the other chadogu.<br /><br />3. symbolism. Within the simple shapes and colors, there is a spiritual quality</p><p> Elaborate decoration, colors painted into the piece, overly prim shapes, and so forth are avoided, while simplicity and calmness and quietness are valued. Effort is placed on giving meaning to the qualities in and existence of those features.<br /></p><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmEK4KF-I/AAAAAAAACR8/hN8RLzfV7Iw/s1600-h/写真00048.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433282959782844386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmEK4KF-I/AAAAAAAACR8/hN8RLzfV7Iw/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00048.JPG" border="0" /></a> * The standards of selection</div><div> At the root of wabisuki, there is the ZEN ideology and the spirit of waka, as previously explained. In thinking about the concrete standards applied when selecting chadogu, it becomes clear that the following three keywords have been important.<br /></div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmD_cvyCI/AAAAAAAACR0/AVS71lfv-xA/s1600-h/写真00045.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433282956715083810" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmD_cvyCI/AAAAAAAACR0/AVS71lfv-xA/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00045.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Form(nari). this means the shape itself and overall silhouette. the kanji used to write the term nari is that for 'shape,形'. this , therefore, concerns the outer appearance of the implement. Every implement has its own particular purpose, and of first importance is that the shape suits that the shape suits that purpose. For example, if it is a vessel for water, it must be shaped so that it is stable and will not tip over. Furthermore, it needs to match the nature of wabisuki beauty, as will be described next. For instance, we may say that it should not be elaborately shaped, but have a clean, simple form.<br /><br />2. Balance(koro) This has to do with its size and distribution. The KANJI used to write the term koro is that for 'ratio,比' . The idea may also be referred to as koroai, or 'suitable match'. Firstly, about the size, if it is a tea bowl then it needs to fit neatly in a person's cupped hands. Also, it is not good if it is surprisingly heavy when one picks it up, or if it is too light. The matter of ratio, for instance in the case of a container for tea powder for thick tea(chaire), would mean that the mouth needs to be size that allows the tea scoop to be inserted easily, while if the mouth is strangely large, the container will not be acceptable. It is also important that the diameter of the mouth, that of the body, as well as that of the bottom must be of a comfortable ratio.<br /> Almost all the famous chadogu from the past fit within a certain parameter insofar as this ratio is involved. Also, it is not just the one item that is considered; its balance and harmony with the other implements is important. Care must be taken so that just one item is not outstandingly large or small. Harmony is important for chadogu.<br /><br />3. Aura(yosu) The kanji for yosu is 様子, which stands for 'state', among other meaning. Each work possesses its own aura. Works that subtly present an aura that is in keeping with the beauty of chanoyu, as described next, are recognized, while those that present a fussy aura, gaudy aura, or an aura of being too prim are avoid.<br /><div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmDZHUwLI/AAAAAAAACRs/tif90B0obpg/s1600-h/写真00028.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433282946424684722" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bmDZHUwLI/AAAAAAAACRs/tif90B0obpg/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00028.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-6370179303035163085?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-20501628548335494102010-03-24T21:29:00.004+09:002010-03-24T21:29:00.143+09:00*wabisuki and wabi-sabi<br />It is not an overstatement to say that chanoyu at the end of the16th century was nearly dominated by wabisuki. However, with the death of the man who we may consider to have been its main leader, SEN no RIKYU, this began to change. As described previously in the post about the chanoyu history, entering the 17th century many unique tea masters appeared on the scene, each innovating and promoting his own style of chanoyu, and so we could say that this was an era of development for wabisuki. however, entering the 18th century it appears that wabisuki had changed in its very quality.<br /><br />Specifically, in documents about chanoyu written around this time, at first we can find some usage of the term wabisuki, but gradually the usage becomes divided into wabi and suki. To explain more clearly, at first wabi is used to imply something very close to the original meaning of wabisuki, but soon it comes to imply something quite different from the wabisuki described in last post above; something inferring chanoyu that does not have any splendid implements. The word suki comes to simply mean chanoyu, and so the combination sukisha(数寄者) means chanoyu person and sukiya(数寄屋) means chashitsu in those documents.<br /><br /><p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrrLGhk0I/AAAAAAAACLM/dpaq3_64GZw/s1600-h/1+012_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911427695612738" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrrLGhk0I/AAAAAAAACLM/dpaq3_64GZw/s320/1+012_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> Wabisuki initially was understood as a certain ideal form of chanoyu. However, because of its strict content or the difficult process required to reach the realm that was its goal, people lost interest in it. The consequence of this is revealed in the change of vocabulary we find in the chanoyu documents. Although around the beginning of the 17th century the word wabi was used with the same meaning as wabisuki, in time the term wabi person/people(wabibito), though it might have shown a measure of respect, actually came to ring of the sense that they were looked upon as heathenish beings.</p><p> Nowadays it is so common to use the terms wabi-sabi when speaking about chanoyu, almost as if these are set epithets for it, but as can be realized from the explanations given thus far, the root of the chanoyu ideal lies in wabisuki, and even though wabi is a close term, it actually only indicates one facet of chanoyu.<img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911420774344482" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrqxUXZyI/AAAAAAAACLE/Qwx1VBQv2jA/s320/1+011_R.jpg" border="0" /> The term sabi(rust,sense of patina) actually was never used much in chanoyu. Even if it were used, it would not be used like the words wabisuki or wabi, to talk about the ideology of chanoyu itself or matters related to it. Sabi, rather, it a term used most often to explain about the beauty in wabisuki- wabi-style chanoyu. moreover, it may be said that wabi was a term holding important meaning in literature,such as haiku(俳句)</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-2050162854833549410?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-40292131634985301682010-03-23T09:02:00.003+09:002010-03-23T09:02:00.402+09:00**From poetic Pursuit to zen<br /><br />3.Wabisuki<br /> Chasuki evolved into chanoyu once its three facts of chashitsu, temae, and chadogu were developed. Together with this, however, another idea that boosted the development of chasuki was the awakening of the notion of wabisuki. This , again, may be divided into four concepts:<br />(1) The same concept as the devotion demanded in utasuki (執心)<br />(2) to engage in zen training (禅)<br />(3) to study waka and understand its essence (和歌)<br />(4) to be able to select implements qualified for wabisuiki (目聞)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakZGEWFaI/AAAAAAAAB70/up31S-UtTu8/s1600-h/IMG_0192_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699952619492770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakZGEWFaI/AAAAAAAAB70/up31S-UtTu8/s320/IMG_0192_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Concerning the second point, ZEN, in utasuki the Buddhist path did not necessarily mean ZEN; however, in wabisuki it was clearly identified that this path must be that of Zen. One reason behind this was that RIKYU and the others of this <span style="color:#ff0000;">era</span> who <span style="color:#ff0000;">presumably</span> contributed to the development of the wabisuki idea inevitably studied Zen. More to the point, however, is that chanoyu devotees considered that the Buddhist path necessary for wabisuki was Zen. Supposedly, this was because they considered that Zen(not implying the school of Buddhism called ZEN) put its finger on how humans should be, and indicated a<span style="color:#ff0000;"> concrete</span> method, ZAZEN(座禅,seated meditation), for reaching that way of being. Hence, the chanoyu that those individuals developed was not simply a way of making and drinking tea called chanoyu(in modern terms, chanoyu as an art or as a performance). What they aimed for was to reach the ZEN realm by having those who practiced it practice seated meditation. This is the wellspring of the later description of chanoyu as 'Tea and Zen, the same flavor'(chazen ichimi,茶禅一味) or 'Tea is at once ZEN'(cha soku zen,茶即禅).<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakUiZWhUI/AAAAAAAAB7s/3sSV_XGL5BA/s1600-h/IMG_0189_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699874324448578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakUiZWhUI/AAAAAAAAB7s/3sSV_XGL5BA/s320/IMG_0189_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> Like the 'chill and lean'(冷え痩せ？) of chasuki, waka in wabisuki implies that the <span style="color:#ff0000;">ideology</span> underlying waka(classical Japanese poetry) and renga(collaborative verse-linking) is essential to it. With chasuki, the phrase 'chill and lean' included the idea of the Buddhist path, whereas in wabisuki, the Buddhist path and specifically ZEN stood independently as its foundation, and it was reasoned that, on top of this, the ideology that waka and renga realized was essential tochanoyu as well. The aim of Zen, by and large, was to cultivate the chanoyu practitioner as a human being and lead the person to a certain condition of self-realization, while there was in waka not only the 'chill and lean' ideology but the poetic spirit itself, which was considered necessary to cultivate the nature and manner of chanoyu in order for it to achieve a <span style="color:#ff0000;">superb</span> <span style="color:#ff0000;">presence</span>.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakUazxcSI/AAAAAAAAB7k/JdBRjhdjrrc/s1600-h/IMG_0184_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699872287781154" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakUazxcSI/AAAAAAAAB7k/JdBRjhdjrrc/s320/IMG_0184_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> The 'choise of imlements' of chasuki and the 'connoisseur-ship' of wabisuki are similar, but in the latter, the selection of implements was based on the ideas of wabisuki, and this was judged by a strict criterion. Consequently, many Chinese imports(KARAMONO) left the field of chadogu, and domestic items(wamono),Korean items8KORAIMONO), and also imports from Southeast Asia and other areas(nanbanmono) were newly taken up as chadogu for wabisuki. The selection of implements in chasuki was roughly a <span style="color:#3366ff;">matter</span> concerning the two opposite poles of Chinese imports and domestic items, but the <span style="color:#ff0000;">basis</span> for<span style="color:#ff6666;"> connoisseurship</span> was the wabisuki ideas, and also it may be said that importance was placed on the overall harmony of all the implements rather than judging each for its independent worthy qualities.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakULRPGWI/AAAAAAAAB7c/icuB6scZBbw/s1600-h/IMG_0183_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699868116392290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakULRPGWI/AAAAAAAAB7c/icuB6scZBbw/s320/IMG_0183_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> The above four points each characterize and represent the elements that were necessary for the realization of wabisuki. Devotion meant chanoyu training, Zen meant personal training as a human being, waka meant the <span style="color:#ff0000;">presence</span> that chanoyu possessed, and <span style="color:#ff0000;">connoisseurship</span> meant the selection and harmony of the implements.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakT_SGqCI/AAAAAAAAB7U/iGlmhI12ZrE/s1600-h/IMG_0181_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699864898807842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakT_SGqCI/AAAAAAAAB7U/iGlmhI12ZrE/s320/IMG_0181_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> These elements are not equal in level or ratio. We might think of them as positioned as follow: at the foundation is devotion, Zen rests on top of this, above that rests waka, and at the very top is connoisseurship.<br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakThmwnuI/AAAAAAAAB7M/aqbuFvSi_EY/s1600-h/IMG_0179_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699856932380386" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzakThmwnuI/AAAAAAAAB7M/aqbuFvSi_EY/s320/IMG_0179_R.JPG" border="0" /></a></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-4029213163498530168?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-30069879152318302642010-03-22T08:59:00.003+09:002010-03-22T08:59:01.027+09:00**chanoyu is a matter of wabisuki<br /><br />*From poetic <span style="color:#ff0000;">pursuit </span>to zen-flavored wabi pursuit<br />There was a long course of events leading to the establishment of chanoyu, and since its establishment chanoyu has changed in many ways. With its establishment, however, certain ideas were formed that supported its practice. Hereunder is an explanation of how the ideas developed, and what they were.<br />from the historical perspective, before the establishment in chanoyu of the idea of wabisuki(詫数寄,chanoyu rooted in the aestheticism of wabi), the idea of suiki(数寄,aestheticism) was recognized in the realm of Japanese poetry(waka), and supposedly it was through this influence that the idea of chasuki(茶数寄,chanoyu aestheticism) evolved. Furthermore, Zen ideas were adopted into chanoyu, and with these developments the wabisuki idea was established.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzajkRpJ9CI/AAAAAAAAB58/4kQYqk7BWig/s1600-h/IMG_0106_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699045193610274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 297px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzajkRpJ9CI/AAAAAAAAB58/4kQYqk7BWig/s320/IMG_0106_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Utasuki(歌数寄）<br />From the HEIAN period into the KAMAKURA(9th-13th century),people involved in composing WAKA(和歌,traditional Japanese <span style="color:#ff0000;">poetic</span> form consisting of 31<span style="color:#ff0000;"> syllables</span>) experimented with many ideas. The great master of the WAKA poetic form, FUJIWARA no SADAIE(藤原定家,a.k.a FUJIWARA no TEIKA; 1162-1241), consolidated these into a theory. Entering the MUROMACHI period, however,the poetry composition style called RENGA(collaborative verse-linking) became popular. Rather than individual poets composing a poem each and <span style="color:#cc0000;">vying</span> against each other for superiority, the poems were separated into two sections- an opening verse and closing verse - and numerous poets would participate in composing verse- and numerous poets would participate in composing linked poems. Through this development, the WAKA theory of SADAIE was carried forward by the masters of RENGA. The conclusion reached by those RENGA masters as to what thy could describe as their concept of UTASUKU(poetic aestheticism) was fourfold:<br />(1) Poetry composition as a lifelong pursuit (執心)<br />(2) belief in Buddhism, and pursuit of the Buddhist teachings (仏道)<br />(3) leaving the world of mundane affairs and living in seclusion in a quiet place in the mountains (遁世)<br />(4) learning from excellent poems of the past. people referred to those who devoted themselves to RENGA as UTASUKi, and the RENGA get-togethers also came to be called UTASUKI. (秀歌)<br /><br /><p><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzajkAkOykI/AAAAAAAAB50/NlbxM2T7dMQ/s1600-h/IMG_0100_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699040609552962" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 297px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzajkAkOykI/AAAAAAAAB50/NlbxM2T7dMQ/s320/IMG_0100_R.JPG" border="0" /></a> 2. Chasuki(茶数寄)<br />Besides the world of poetry, in the 14th century TOCHA(闘茶) 'tea competitions' were the <span style="color:#ff0000;">rage</span>, but by the 15th century they went out of <span style="color:#3333ff;">fashion</span> and, instead, tea get-togethers called chasuki became popular, as described in a previous pages.At these chasuki, there was not the<span style="color:#ff0000;"> gambling</span> and drinking of the TOCHA parties; rather, it seems that tea drinking acted as an occasion wherein the participants aimed to reach a deeper, spiritual realm. It was probably for this purpose that procedure for making the tea(teame) were created, and the implements which were to be used for this developed. A number of documents reveal that it was important to select articles appropriate for chasuki out of the domestic articles that might be found anywhere, as opposed to using expensive imports from China. According to documents written in the16th century, the following four points were considered important for chasuki:</p><p>(1) To engage in one's tea practice as one's lifework (覚悟)</p><p>(2) originality in one's tea practice, and people's recognition of one's accomplishments (作分と手柄)</p><p>(3) to reach the 'Chill'(hie) and 'lean'(yase) state proposed in renga (冷え痩せ)</p><p>(4) select implements appropriate for chanoyu　(道具の選択)</p><p>Although not included among the above-mentioned four points, the Buddhist path also was of course considered important. this element, the Buddhist path, is accommodated in point4 above, the notion of 'chill and learn', and is essential to that state.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szajj9IC3LI/AAAAAAAAB5s/ytN2PKUCjdQ/s1600-h/IMG_0098_R.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419699039686024370" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 297px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szajj9IC3LI/AAAAAAAAB5s/ytN2PKUCjdQ/s320/IMG_0098_R.JPG" border="0" /></a></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-3006987915231830264?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-66807799449211612562010-03-21T21:55:00.002+09:002010-03-21T21:55:00.542+09:00*The Distinctive features and function of the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">ROJI</span><br /><br /><br />1. It is small. Most <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">ROJI</span> are quite small, being about 200-300m^2 (60-90 <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">tsubo</span>)at most, and there are rarely any exceeding 1000m^2. At temples and such where there is a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">chashitsu</span> in one corner of a large garden, the portion there will be fenced off and made into the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">ROJI</span> for the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">chashitsu</span>.<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bdc3QZmEI/AAAAAAAACNs/wX2PU94Sxy0/s1600-h/IMGP0008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433273488407894082" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bdc3QZmEI/AAAAAAAACNs/wX2PU94Sxy0/s320/IMGP0008.JPG" border="0" /></a> 2. Low shrubbery and nonflowering trees are planted. Trees that are too tall shut out the sunlight and therefore are not preferred. Flowers are displayed inside the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">chashitsu</span>, and in order for those to be given the highlight, flowing plants are avoided in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">ROJI</span>. Also, in humid regions such as KYOTO, many varieties of moss grow on the ground, which makes for a beautiful scene.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bddnBnAGI/AAAAAAAACN8/QnItUZtFW5s/s1600-h/IMGP0010.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433273501230760034" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bddnBnAGI/AAAAAAAACN8/QnItUZtFW5s/s320/IMGP0010.JPG" border="0" /></a> 3.

Therefore, daily <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">wordly</span> items such as abacuses in the old days and cellular phone in present times are to be left outside and not brought in, and also, one should not enter wearing regular daily attire.

Before the establishment of chanoyu, a common room was used not only for tea parties but also verse-linking parties and incense parties. However, with the establishment of chanoyu, an exclusive room for it was constructed.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrdJyrXUI/AAAAAAAACK8/DZCLZKtoDqI/s1600-h/1+010_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911186825764162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrdJyrXUI/AAAAAAAACK8/DZCLZKtoDqI/s320/1+010_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> 2. chashitsu have a place to do temae, a display place, and a place to engage in appreciation. The place for doing temae is referred to as the temaeza. The host sits at this spot and performs the temae. A temae is performed while sitting, and so a space of 1 m^2 is required. The place where the temae is performed is near the host's entrance way, and the layout of the chashitsu decides its location.<br /> The display place mainly is the TOKUNOMA. Usually the items displayed here are a hanging scroll(KAKEMONO; KAKEJIKU), flower container(HANAIRE), and incense burner(香炉,KORO) or incense container(香合,KOGO). In days of old, it was not uncommon for the caddy containing powered tea(茶入れ,chaire) or jar containing leaf tea (茶壷,chatsubo) to be displayed, but there are only displayed here at certain special times nowadays.<br /> The chashitsu generally is a place for appreciating things. Sitting at their seats, the guests appreciate the TOKONOMA display., the host's temae, and the implements used. They sometimes move in front of the TOKONOMA or in front of the RO for a closer view.<br /> The place for the appreciation of objects depends upon the size of the chashitsu; the larger the place for appreciation, and relative to this, the more guests that can be seated in the room. One TATAMI can seat from two to three people. However, even if the chashitsu is large, the guests only sit on the TATAMI around the perimeter, without sitting on the TATAMI in the middle of the room.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrc6McVEI/AAAAAAAACK0/Y5lHges7S3E/s1600-h/1+009_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911182638863426" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrc6McVEI/AAAAAAAACK0/Y5lHges7S3E/s320/1+009_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> 3. While the chashitsu serves the functions just described(2 above), and it also pursues the ideal of being as small as possible, various devices are employed so that it does not seem small or cramped.<br /> The smallest chashitsu is only somewhat less than two TATAMI in floor space(about 3m^2). Even so, by having many windows, variation in the ceiling treatment, and so forth, it has a surprisingly comfortable feeling.<br /> A chashitsu that is YOJOHAN, or 4.5 TATAMI in floor space, is considered the most fundamental size. If it is larger, it is categorized as HIROMA(広間,spacious room).<br /><div><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrcrcfQAI/AAAAAAAACKs/lSY9TqwycxQ/s1600-h/1+008_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911178679631874" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrcrcfQAI/AAAAAAAACKs/lSY9TqwycxQ/s320/1+008_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> 4. The degree of brightness in a chashittsu, as well as the direction of the light and position of the light source is minutely calculated.</div><div> The earliest chashittsu had their openings in the north side. It is said that this is because the change in light entering the room due to the movement of the sun is relatively minimal on the north side After this developmental stage in the history of the chashitus, the guest's entrance way was made small, and many windows were built into the room, and so the direction of the chashitsu ceased to be such an issue. However, the placement of the windows was still decided after giving sufficient thought to the effect of how the light would enter the room.</div><div> At night, such lighting equipment as a TANKEi(短敬木 a device in which a wick is burned using rapeseed oil) or portable candle(手燭) holder are employed. It is placed between the host and the guests, and the light source is about at the eye level of the seated people.</div><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrcdNHoNI/AAAAAAAACKk/7BknBL8IvFk/s1600-h/1+007_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429911174857072850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1rrcdNHoNI/AAAAAAAACKk/7BknBL8IvFk/s320/1+007_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> 5. Traditionally, the designing of the chashitsu was not left to a professional architectural designer. Rather, the chajin(devoted chanoyu person) personally designed the chashitsu so that he might realize his personal conception of chanoyu. Such chanoyu devotees not only drew up ground plans, but thought up the idea of making three-dimensional standing fold-out plants called OKOSHIEZU(起し絵図), the CHAJIN(茶人) could communicate his ideas and realize the kind of Chanoyu that was his ideal.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-5240332394242691950?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-49174238054618713252010-03-19T20:45:00.006+09:002010-03-19T20:45:00.658+09:00**The architectural space called chashitsu and garden called ROJI(露地)<br /><br /><br /><br />*The constituent elements of the chashitsu and ROJI<br /><br />Chanoyu in formal style requires the exclusive space of a chashitsu(tea room). Attendant to this chashitsu is a garden called ORJI. The architectural form called chashitsu may roughly be categorized as a kind of traditional Japanese building, but it has various characteristics that set it apart from the usual form of traditional Japanese building.<br /><br />Firstly, on initial look form the outside it appears humble. In truth, however, extremely fine considerations are involved, and it definitely is not a humble building. Let us examine its overall construction by first taking a look at the <span style="color:#ff0000;">constituent</span> elements of the chashitsu and ROJI.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bpp-71zOI/AAAAAAAACUc/38kEyiWnwM0/s1600-h/写真00222.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433286907946978530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bpp-71zOI/AAAAAAAACUc/38kEyiWnwM0/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00222.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. The constituents of the chashitsu<br /> The roof: Making use of wood and thatch, it evokes a rustic atmosphere.<br /><br /> The ceiling: To alleviate any sense of constriction within the room, the ceiling is not built as one flat surface but may change level, type of material, and so on. Sometimes a part of the underside of the roof is revealed, and in such cases the wood used is carefully selected so that it presents a beautiful appearance.<br /><br /> The walls, windows,and pillars: The walls are earthen, giving a soft effect. The windows are not only designed to let sunlight into the room, but also work to produce a sense of expansiveness in the small chashitsu. As for the pillars, the room is basically constructed so that they are not visible,and even when they are visible they are inconspicuous. However, in certain <span style="color:#ff0000;">circumstances</span> a pillar that is not perfectly straight may be raised in a spot near the room and thereby making the small chashitsu seem more expansive.<br /><br /> The entrance ways: The doorway for the guests is separate from that for the host. The doorway called NIJIRIGUCHI(躙口,crawl through doorway) that is for the guests is so small that one must bend down in order to pass through. A reason given for this design is that it forces anyone who enters through it to bow, no matter how illustrious that person may be. For the host, sometimes there are two doorways. In such cases, one is for use when doing the tea making, and the other is for use when bringing in the meal items. The doorways effectively add an impression of roominess to the small space.<br /><br /> The floor and RO(hearth built into the door): Tatami cover the floor, and a RO(炉) is built into one section. The Ro is a place where ash and charcoal fire are laid, and in olden times there were ones about 60 cm. square. now, however, the size is set at about 40cm. square. A wooden frame called ROGUCHI(炉縁) is inserted around the Ro, and often it has a urushi(漆, Japanese lacquer) finish. It effectively gives the chasitsu accent.<br /><br /> The tokonoma: This is a display place, and extends out from a part of the chashitsu. Normally it is about 120cm. From side to side and 60cm, from front to back. The location in the room depends upon the layout of the chashitsu.<br /><br /> The mizuya(preparation room): This is a room for conducting the preparations for the chanoyu and temporarily housing the chadogu that are to be used. A chashitsu generally has such a room built onto it. No matter the size of the chashitsu, the standard size of the mizuya is bout 5m^2. Once the host has completed the preparations, he waits here for the guests to enter the chashitus, and once they have all assembled, he enters and begins the temae. When the chakai ends, the host sees the guests off and then cleans things up here in the mizuya. As water is needed to wash the chadogu, usually there is a water <span style="color:#ff0000;">faucet </span>in the mizuya. If there is no running water, a vat for water is set in the room. Also, there are shelves for temporarily housing the chadogu. The chadogu most of the time are stored in a storehouse(蔵、kura) or similar storage place.<br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bppZ6bDMI/AAAAAAAACUU/qybQD7sgMGk/s1600-h/写真00223.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5433286898008919234" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S2bppZ6bDMI/AAAAAAAACUU/qybQD7sgMGk/s320/%E5%86%99%E7%9C%9F00223.JPG" border="0" /></a> 2.

In olden times the privy in the ROJI was for actual use, but now it is only a formal element of the ROJI. There is a privy for actual use near the chashitsu.</div><div> </div><div> Stepping stones(飛石): These are stones set along the path in the garden, on which the guests walk. The stones and way they are arranged take many forms.</div><div> </div><div> Foliage and moss(樹木・苔): The plants are low in height, and are of varieties that do not put on flowers. Moss, which deepens the greenness, also is an important element.</div><div> </div><div> Toro(灯籠,stone <span style="color:#3366ff;">lantern</span>): These are devices for lighting the ROJI, and make use of candlelight. There maybe several of these in the ROJI. They are lit for nighttime chakai.</div><div> </div><div>Tsubukubai(蹲,蹲踞,low stone water-basin): At the tsukubai, guests rinse their hands and mouth.

Let us each imagine, for example, that we have come to a tea gathering as a guest. The first thing each of us does is to sit in front of the alcove and appreciate the items displayed there: the hanging scroll and/or flowers, and the incense container if one should be on display there. This gesture is called HAIKEN(拝見), which literally means 'to respectfully have a good look'. Next we each move to the place where the TEMAE place(点前座TEMAEZA), and do HAIKEN of the items there.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWGZuqQuI/AAAAAAAACAU/Xl-2nYTuZg0/s1600-h/IMGP0033.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419824975805301474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWGZuqQuI/AAAAAAAACAU/Xl-2nYTuZg0/s320/IMGP0033.JPG" border="0" /></a> Once the host enters and the TEMAE begins, after drinking the tea we do HAIKEN of the tea bowl that has been used to make our tea. Furthermore, after the tea drinking by all of us has finished, we do HAIKEN of the tea scoop, caddy for powdered thin tea, and so on that were used to make the tea, and our spokesperson asks the host who made the tea scoop and what name the tea scoop has, and also who made the tea caddy and the name of the manufacturer of the powdered tea contained in it.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWF1Trb6I/AAAAAAAACAM/7MaHyoIxHbo/s1600-h/IMGP0032.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419824966028455842" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcWF1Trb6I/AAAAAAAACAM/7MaHyoIxHbo/s320/IMGP0032.JPG" border="0" /></a> When doing HAIKEN of chanoyu articles, we look at the piece's form, balance, aura,and so forth, which are the aspects which recommended it for being selected.

Both the chashitsu and ROJI incorporate numerous ingenious innovations within a limited physical space. Photographs depicting their appearance are presented later. In addition, special implements are required for the tea preparation procedures(TEMAE) of chanoyu. These implements are chosen according to criteria of the wabisuki aesthetic sensibility, which has evolved throughout the history of chanoyu and is rich in variety. A summary of the wabisuki aesthetic will presented later.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-3618388836121159603?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-51756017021161534762010-03-17T18:58:00.006+09:002010-03-17T18:58:00.278+09:00*the content of a kaiseki meal<br />1. boiled rice<br />2. soup with one or two ingredients<br />3. sashimi, or <span style="color:#ff0000;">raw</span> seafood<br />4. combined dish of vegetables mixed with flavorings<br />5. simmered vegetables and seafood<br />6. broiled vegetables, seafood or poultry<br />7. seafood and vegetables pickled in salt or dried<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FWALftpsI/AAAAAAAACE8/MXE2cWAznOg/s1600-h/nara+022_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427213587043952322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FWALftpsI/AAAAAAAACE8/MXE2cWAznOg/s320/nara+022_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> *The <span style="color:#ff0000;">characteristics</span> of kaiseki cuisine<br />1. fish, shellfish, and<span style="color:#ff0000;"> poultry</span> are used, but beef and pork are not<br />2. the main and side ingredients are mostly items that evince the season.<br />3. the way the <span style="color:#ff0000;">flavorings</span> and seasonings are used brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients<br />4.

They are selected according to the reason and the purpose of the gathering, and also so that they balance harmoniously. This coordination of the implements is called 'dogugumi'(道具組み), and it is among the things that the host of a chakai gives greatest thought to.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FVyFOm4WI/AAAAAAAACEU/kpdWBPLmpXk/s1600-h/nara+014_R.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427213344843424098" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/S1FVyFOm4WI/AAAAAAAACEU/kpdWBPLmpXk/s320/nara+014_R.jpg" border="0" /></a> * The places where chanoyu implements come from</div><div> In that the method of drinking matcha entered Japan from song-<span style="color:#ff0000;">dynasty</span> China, the implements used for it, such as the tea bowls from which to drink it, at first were of Chinese origin. Japan in those days took the advanced nation of China as its model, and Japanese people <span style="color:#ff0000;">esteemed</span> the products imported from that country, referring to them as KARAMONO(TANG items). The MUROMACHI shogun family eagerly bought many KARAMONO,hung such imported paintings and displayed Chinese vases and incense burners and such on the shelves and so<span style="color:#ff0000;"> forth</span>. Chanoyu implements from China also were considered the best.<br /><br /> As chanoyu developed, however, the sense of values changed dramatically. It became necessary for the chadogu to meet the ideals of wabisuki(侘数寄), and consequently domestic items(called wamono), <span style="color:#ff0000;">thsubtly</span> colored ceramics made on the Korean peninsula(koraimono), and miscellaneous items from southeast Asia(nanbanmono) were looked upon with new value.</div><div> </div><div> Such implements have been carefully passed on to this day in chanoyu, and currently there are eight example of karamono ceramics( five of which are tea bowls) and one koraimono tea bowl that are registered as national treasures in Japan.</div><div> </div><div> Entering the 17th century, pottery began to be produced in many parts of Japan, including wares for chanoyu. the main potteries include, among others, KAratsu(唐津焼) ware of Saga prefecture in Kyushu, Hagi(萩焼) ware of YAMAGUCHI prefecture, BIZEN(備前焼) ware of OKAYAMA prefecture, Kyoto ware of Kyoto, ShiGARAKI(信楽焼) ware of SHIGA prefecture, SETO(瀬戸焼) ware of AICHI prefecture, and MINO(美濃焼) ware of Gifu prefecture. Also, the RAKU(楽家) family of kyoto produced RAKu tea bowls especially for chanoyu use, and this continues to the present day.</div><div> </div><div> As indicated above, chanoyu implements are not limited to ceramics, but include many items made of lacquer ware, metal, bamboo, and so on. The production of chadogu without a doubt <span style="color:#ff0000;">propelled</span> the development of a great range of Japanese crafts.</div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-5175601702116153476?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-15962369519540368082010-03-16T19:00:00.002+09:002010-03-16T19:00:02.308+09:00**A formal chaonoyu gathering includes a meal<br /><br />* chanoyu cuisine, which has influenced Japanese cuisine<br /> The food courses served at restaurants that specialize in traditional Japanese cuisine today were <span style="color:#ff0000;">historically</span> inspired by the cuisine of chanoyu. Besides such restaurant food, Japanese home cooking in general has also been inspired to some degree by the cuisine of chanoyu. The reason for this is that the basis of Japanese cuisine as we know it today was established after the 18th century, and chanoyu cuisine developed before this.<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUZPcJ5qI/AAAAAAAAB9c/1fgKsxeM19M/s1600-h/IMGP0009.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823100437587618" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUZPcJ5qI/AAAAAAAAB9c/1fgKsxeM19M/s320/IMGP0009.JPG" border="0" /></a> Today, the cuisine of chanoyu is referred to as kaiseki ryouri, but this is a relatively modern term for it which became popular from the last 18th century. Before then, it <span style="color:#ff0000;">apparently</span> was usually called FURUMAI(振舞,entertainment) or SHITATE(仕立,b fixing).<br /><br />KAISEKI RYOURI developed under the influences of the cuisine listed <span style="color:#ff0000;">hereunder</span>, among which the most powerful influenced the restaurant cuisine of the EDO period, on the other hand it was also influenced by that cuisine.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUZZ5zc3I/AAAAAAAAB9k/Dv-nc-c7FSE/s1600-h/IMGP0010.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823103246300018" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUZZ5zc3I/AAAAAAAAB9k/Dv-nc-c7FSE/s320/IMGP0010.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. Banquet (array of foods) cuisine（大響料理）</div><div> This style of cuisine originated as a meal offered to the gods in the native SHINTO <span style="color:#ff0000;">religion</span>, and became the formal meal style of the <span style="color:#ff0000;">aristocrats</span> from around the 8th or 9th century.</div><div> </div><div>2.Full-course dinner(本膳料理)</div><div> Around the 14th century, this style of meal was developed as the formal cuisine of the ruling warrior class. It consisted of seven, five, and three varieties of dishes served on three individual footed food trays.</div><div> </div><div>3.TOKI(斎)</div><div> This is the name for the meal served at Buddhist ceremonies. There were minute rules for how to eat the TOKI when this form of Buddhist meal was introduced to Japan in the 12th century, although the content of the rules was not set, and it changed according to the circumstances. Chanoyu mainly adopted the TOKI meal style.</div><div> </div><div>4. NANBAN cuisine(南蛮料理)</div><div> This is generally thought of as the European cuisine introduced by missionaries in the 16th century. However, it is not purely Portuguese cuisine but many be considered a conglomeration of food styles from the places through which the missionaries traveled, including India, Southeast Asia, and China.</div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUY-KCTkI/AAAAAAAAB9U/hdyioV6BmR4/s1600-h/IMGP0008.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823095798189634" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUY-KCTkI/AAAAAAAAB9U/hdyioV6BmR4/s320/IMGP0008.JPG" border="0" /></a> The KAISEKI RYOURI served at traditional Japanese restaurants today in very similar to the cuisine of chanoyu, but is not <span style="color:#3333ff;">identical</span>, and this is because it caters to the wishes of clients. Nonetheless, the traditional of Japanese cuisine, the model form of which is chanoyu cuisine, has been preserved.</div><div> </div><div>Recently, there is the buzzword 'slow food'(as opposed to 'fast food'), and the fundamental idea behind this kind of food is similar to the idea underlying traditional Japanese cuisine, as represented by chanoyu cuisine. Traditional Japanese cuisine is being <span style="color:#ff0000;">reevaluated</span> as a leading style of cuisine in tune with the times today.<br /><div><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUYJ4a9iI/AAAAAAAAB9E/YfSUfv-5Kls/s1600-h/IMGP0006.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823081765664290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcUYJ4a9iI/AAAAAAAAB9E/YfSUfv-5Kls/s320/IMGP0006.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-1596236951954036808?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-3640869216289555982010-03-15T18:19:00.001+09:002010-03-15T18:19:00.419+09:00*the characteristics of temae<br />1. Flow and pause<br />the temae is not performed from beginning to end at a monotonous pace. Some points are performed quickly, there are momentary pauses, and so <span style="color:#ff0000;">forth</span> to give it <span style="color:#ff0000;">modulation</span>.<br /><br />2. Symbolic nature<br />There are processes in the temae that are not utilitarian; for example the tines of the tea whisk actually have been checked in the preparation room beforehand, but they are checked once again in view of the guests in the chasentoshi(茶筅通し) process. <span style="color:#ff0000;">Sanitation</span> is held high in chanoyu, and such <span style="color:#ff0000;">gestures</span> contain a symbolic expression of this.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szcmz6b3ThI/AAAAAAAACCk/19-F8IvOMHo/s1600-h/DSC04278.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419843349864992274" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/Szcmz6b3ThI/AAAAAAAACCk/19-F8IvOMHo/s320/DSC04278.JPG" border="0" /></a> 3. Physical grace<br />In that the temae is a form of performance art, an important concern is to <span style="color:#ff0000;">achieve gracefulness</span> in the series of movements and one's posture is carrying them out.<br /><br />4. Inseparability of performer and audience<br />Chanoyu sometimes is described as ' a script-less performace'. It is not, however, a stage art. Rather, the performer(host) and audience(guests) sit on the same platform(chashitsu), and together create the chakai. There is not pre-defined script. The host and guests converse and act according to the circumstances.<br /><br />5. Successfully building the performance<br />Through the agency of the temae, the host and guests together eat and drink and share in conversation, and thus create a special, shared atmosphere within the space of the tea room. This is the meaning of 'successfully building the performance'(ichiza konryu,一座建立). To realize this requires serious training on the part of both the host and guests.<br /><br />6. A singular moment, a singular meeting<br />Within the grand expanse of time and space, the meeting of all elements realized by host and guests here and now is never repeatable, even if sometime in the future, at the same time of day in the year, the same people were to have a tea gathering at the same place. This 'unrepeatable quality of the moment' is the meaning of 'a singular moment, a singular meeting' (ichigo ichie 一期一会).<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-364086921628955598?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-91053809359451875142010-03-14T17:14:00.001+09:002010-03-14T17:14:00.906+09:00**the progression of a formal chaji<br /><br />the standard progression of a formal chanoyu gathering. or chaji, nowadays is as follows:<br />1. Charcoal-laying temae(first charcoal;SHOZUMI 初炭), the procedure for building the charcoal fire.<br />2. cuisine<br />3.confection(main confection; OMOGASHI 主菓子)<br />4. Intermission(NAKADACHI 中立)<br />5. koicha(濃茶)<br />6. Charcoal-laying temae(latter charcoal;GOZUMI 後炭), to repair the charcoal fire<br />7.confections(dry confections; HIGASHI 干菓子) and usucha(薄茶)<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXjrq34jI/AAAAAAAACCc/FTvpYsHmE1U/s1600-h/IMGP0066.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826578349089330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXjrq34jI/AAAAAAAACCc/FTvpYsHmE1U/s320/IMGP0066.JPG" border="0" /></a> 　Among these, only the cuisine is not a temae matter, and the reason probably is because the foods are not prepared before the guests' eyes. Rather, the host carries the foods into the room, having already prepared them and dished them out in the back preparation room. If, as with the SHIJO(四条) school of knife handling, the knife use and so forth were conducted before the guests' eyes, that could also be established as a temae. However, in chanoyu such a temae concerning the meal, where the foods would be prepared in view of the guests, was never incorporated, due in part to such factions as the place, facilities,and time considerations.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXjXtVvFI/AAAAAAAACCU/kXr8DcirfdE/s1600-h/IMGP0065.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419826572990725202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcXjXtVvFI/AAAAAAAACCU/kXr8DcirfdE/s320/IMGP0065.JPG" border="0" /></a> Before drinking the tea, a confection is always eaten. This is because the bitterness of the tea following the sweetness of the confection <span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>enhances</strong></span> the tastiness of the tea. the <span style="color:#ff0000;"><em>confection, </em></span><span style="color:#000000;">that is served before the koicha at a chaji is called omogashi(main confection), and those served before the usucha are called higashi(dry confections). The higashi, just as the word suggests, are dry confections such as sugary candy or rice crackers, which are light in flavor. However, at mass gatherings it is common for OMOGASHI to be served even though the tea is usucha.</span></div><div><br /> Chaji normally are held in the daytime. However, in mid-summer they may take place during the cool hours around daybreak, and in the winter, they may take place after dark. At a nightime chaji, candles and such lighting equipment are employed, and this makes for the enjoyment of an impressive atomosphere like days of old.<br /><br /><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-9105380935945187514?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264600244476801773.post-91457401357337864632010-03-13T17:03:00.006+09:002010-03-13T17:03:00.658+09:00**Doing temae and having a chanoyu gathering<br /><br />*what is TEMAE?<br />A temae is a series of procedures followed to make a bowl of matcha, serve it to a guest, and then to put the things away. It may be said that one reason chanoyu is recognized as a form of art it that the extremely ordinary and instinctual act of taking food and drink was put into order as series of movements turned it into a KATA or 'model form'. Without the temae, chanoyu is but a mere act of taking food and drink.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVHp31nYI/AAAAAAAAB-s/E2LlMDuT5ss/s1600-h/IMGP0020.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823897807003010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVHp31nYI/AAAAAAAAB-s/E2LlMDuT5ss/s320/IMGP0020.JPG" border="0" /></a> The temae is comprised of a smooth, continuous process of many procedures, which include among other things the preparations, the inspection of the articles, the tea making, the cleaning of the articles, and the putting away of the articles. It is created as a performance art, having variation in the dynamics and pace of the movements.<br /><div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVGjc6VvI/AAAAAAAAB-U/iWFo1Py-sbs/s1600-h/IMGP0016.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823878903584498" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVGjc6VvI/AAAAAAAAB-U/iWFo1Py-sbs/s320/IMGP0016.JPG" border="0" /></a> with the rise of the IEMOTO systems, the temae, or in other words the KATA(model forms)passed on from the IEMOTO to disciples, came to be the element that provided the keynote of the system itself. Owing to the establishment of the IEMOTO system in chanoyu, the temae not only became <span style="color:#ff0000;">systematic</span> but also complex, Basically,however, any temae progresses as follows, with additional movements added depending on the type of temae that it is.<br /><div><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVHEo6KnI/AAAAAAAAB-k/1TgZZWA0IkU/s1600-h/IMGP0019.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823887812274802" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVHEo6KnI/AAAAAAAAB-k/1TgZZWA0IkU/s320/IMGP0019.JPG" border="0" /></a> 1. the host carries that implements, which have been readied in the preparation room(mizuya 水屋),into the tea room, where he then inspects them and puts them in proper condition for making a delicious bowl of tea.</div><div>2. the host mixes the powdered tea and hot water together in the tea bowl.</div><div>3. the host puts the tea bowl, <span style="color:#ff0000;">containing</span> the tea drink, out for the guests.</div><div>4. the guests receive it, drink the tea,and then return the bowl.</div><div>5. the host rinses the returned tea bowl and prepares it for making the next bowl of tea.</div><div>6. Once assured that no further tea is necessary, the host cleans up the items, putting them in their original condition, and carries them out of the tea room. </div><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVG-w673I/AAAAAAAAB-c/LM3M0M97Ugs/s1600-h/IMGP0018.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419823886235266930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sXbployNVk0/SzcVG-w673I/AAAAAAAAB-c/LM3M0M97Ugs/s320/IMGP0018.JPG" border="0" /></a> **the kinds of temae and forms of chanoyu gatherings<br /></div><div>1.KOICHA(濃茶)and USUCHA(薄茶)</div><div> when we say 'a bowl of tea'(お茶一服,Ocha ippuku) today, we usually mean usucha(thin tea), wherein each individual serving is made in an individual bowl. On the other hand, KOICHA(thick tea) is made by putting a good amount of tea in a relatively large bowl,blending the tea with hot water, and having a number of guests share in drinking this.</div><div> </div><div> The temae for koicha and usucha differ slightly. At a chaonoyu gathering, the formal system is to have koicha first, and afterward make usucha. Nowadays, the abbreviated style of chanoyu gathering in which only usucha is served has become common. Normally, a chanoyu gathering in which only koicha is served does not happen.</div><div> </div><div>2.Furo(風炉) and Ro(炉)</div><div> In chanoyu nowadays, the device used for boiling the water is either a portable brazier, called FURO, or a fire pit built into the floor, called RO, depending on the season. The RO is similar to the kind of fire pit called IRORI(囲炉裏) seen in<span style="color:#ff0000;"> folk</span> houses of old, and is used in the winter period (November through April). The FURO is a characoal brazier placed on the TATAMI. In May, the RO is covered and the FURO is put out. Due to their differences, the TEMAE changes somewhat, but we many consider the TEMAE as being essentially the same in purpose.</div><div> </div><div>The levels of TEMAE give the impression that there are many varieties, but actually they all follow the basic steps outline in the section above,and the differences are a matter of the use of certain specific implements for the particular temae.</div><div> </div><div>3.Formal and <span style="color:#ff0000;"><em>Abbreviated</em></span> chanoyu gatherings</div><div> A formal chanoyu gathering is called chaji(茶事,tea function), and consists in koicha and usucha and also the <span style="color:#ff0000;">charcoal-laying</span> temae(炭手前,sumidemae) and cuisine. the charcoal-laying temae is a formalized method of arranging the charcoal in the FURO or RO and comprise a defined KATA. There are rules of etiquette for the cuisine, but the procedures and movements for this are not of the same nature as the temae.</div><div> </div><div>An abbreviated chanoyu gathering may be int he form of a mass gathering or outdoor get-together, where koicha, the charcoal-laying temae, and the cuisine are eliminated and only sweets and usuhca are served. The number of guests at a formal gathering is limited to four or five at most, and the time that it takes is nearly four hours in the case of a most conventional function. However, today's common 'mass gathering" is over in about thirty minutes on the average. Dozens of guests re invited in at once, and this is repeated from five to about ten times during the day.<br /></div><div>There also are the abbreviated styles of temae called RYUREI(立礼), which employs tables and chairs, and bonryaku-demae(盆略手前,simple tray temae), which was created for beginners. Such<span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong> abbreviated</strong></span> forms of temae nonetheless basically follow the previously described pattern.<br /><br />Rather than the type of temae, the key factor nowadays if the difference in the general scheme of the chanoyu gathering-whether it is a chaji or a mass gathering.<br /></div><div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3264600244476801773-9145740135733786463?l=shely0o0.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>good luckhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11062299935214203004noreply@blogger.com0
