If you ask Zen people they will say tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation; it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert.
— OSHO

TEA CEREMONY

CEREMONY

IN COMMUNION. With friends and family. Steps with purpose, taken together, and to celebrate, or mourn and move through. Steps taken with care and with love. Guided and sometimes quiet. At times, with uproarious laughter and maybe even to tears. For Seasons and Life-Transitions, Weddings and Endings. For when Life Needs Our Attention. To Heal the Earth and Each Other.

RITUAL & SOUND CEREMONY

Monthly, Bi-annual and Seasonal. NEW MOON & FULL MOON Ritual and Ceremony. Vision Boards help us develop an Inner Eye, a ways to seek for what the Heart wants. We get together, over Tea, Wine or Chai. We journal. We Sit in Silence. We lay back on bolsters. We tear the magazines, we cut and paste. We converse with our Inner Child, we take ourselves on Drum Journeys to find what needs finding and we Commune. Always in communication with Self and sometimes Other. We partner. We pray. We harness the tidal within as the Moon waxes, wanes, fills or eclipses. All moments special and each Ritual or Ceremony guiding us toward the liminal. As above so below. What goes up and out must come down and in. Outward Bound or Seeking Source, we come together as often as is helpful. We bring friends, or we come on our own to make friends; alone but never lonely.

Tea tempers the spirit, harmonizes the mind, dispels lassitude and relieves fatigue, awakens the thought and prevents drowsiness.
