The testable history of tea ceremony, that is, humanistic and commercial tea, can be traced back to the Dragon Age in ancient China. Since then, China's tea culture has flowed along the riverbed of history for thousands of years, and finally formed the unique China Tea Ceremony with rich oriental culture. China Tea Ceremony is the Yellow River that has been flowing in China for thousands of years. It is an important part of the long-standing Yellow River culture and has had a great influence on the Chinese nation and civilization. Due to the long history and the firm love and recognition of tea by the will of the whole country, the tea ceremony has been deeply rooted in China culture and China culture.
China Tea Ceremony is not only profound, but also meaningful, artistic and aesthetic. If the Japanese tea ceremony originated in China is the ultimate religion that is strictly respected and extremely exquisite, then the tea ceremony in China should be an all-encompassing and natural philosophy of beauty. Because the tea ceremony in China has come together with the history of China, the tea ceremony in China is different from any other tea ceremony in the world in philosophy and aesthetics.
From the Yanhuang Alliance to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, from the contention of a hundred schools of thought to the Qin and Han Dynasties, from the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the consistent national history and extremely important sects such as Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have been deeply integrated into tea culture, which has become the most basic ideological and cultural essence and aesthetic philosophy foundation of China tea culture. Under the long-term influence of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, China's tea ceremony aesthetics can no longer be just a kind of life aesthetics, but an indifferent and elegant landscape painting, a stirring and elegant Tang poetry and Song poetry, a Taoist practice of integrating heaven and man, a Buddhist essence of meditation and epiphany, and a profound artistic aesthetics and philosophical aesthetics. It can even be said that metaphysically, China Tea Ceremony is a spiritual understanding and aesthetic summary of the world and nature we live in.
What is the core of tea ceremony? Product? What is the ultimate pursuit of tea ceremony? Really? . Different people's personality cultivation will inevitably lead to different tea ceremony and cha de. Some people taste tea, hide a knife in a smile, and intrigue with each other; Some people taste tea, the wind trembles, and swords and horses are produced; Some people taste tea and have no distractions, so they are full of talents and connected with the universe; Some people taste tea, calm down and enjoy themselves, and the world is harmonious. People who stand aloof from the rest of the world have different understanding and goals in life, so naturally they have different understanding of the true peak of tea ceremony. Some people seek a name, and the name is not true; Some people pursue profits, but they are only interested in profits; Some people are loyal to themselves and gain both fame and fortune; Some people are indifferent, but contented. China Tea Ceremony embodies the fraternity of China people.
China Tea Ceremony is humanistic. A person who is honest and kind, loved by the people, can be accepted, heart-to-heart, confidant and career development. This is the foundation of human beings, the essence of human nature and the principle of human nature. A hypocritical and shameless slanderer violates the humanitarian principles of mankind. In character, his life is a failure, his life is bleak, his soul is gloomy and his thoughts are depressed. Even if he can achieve a certain degree of career success in some fields, it is just drinking tea. He can drink his stomach full and get red in the face, but he can't understand. I am tea, and tea is me? My true self, my selfless feelings and? Heart is Buddha, tea is Buddha? Deep artistic conception. In tea, the taste of life is precipitated and all sentient beings are condensed. Tea tasting means tasting life and feeling the whole life.
People, whether officials, writers, businessmen or scholars, must first base themselves on people. A true and frank person, a person with at least personality, morality and human nature, is a person with humanitarian spirit. Tea ceremony is like this, so should human nature. Humanity is tea ceremony, and tea ceremony is humanity.
Coincidentally, just as the tea ceremony has? Tao? 、? Art? What are the main points of doing business? Tao? 、? Surgery? The difference. But? A gentleman loves money and takes it wisely? Tao, the right way, the true way, honesty and trustworthiness, and keeping promises are the golden ways. Tea ceremony seeks peace and truth. And then what? It is the soul of China Tea Ceremony, seeking harmony between Yin and Yang, fire and water, heaven and earth, and man and nature. With my true soul and tea, with my true state of mind, I send my feelings to the mountains and rivers, and I blend into nature with sincere feelings. I am intoxicated, savored, enlightened, practiced, sublimated my personality and tempered my will in the taste of tea. Tea techniques, water and pot have their own emphasis and different methods, and tea tasting adopts strict procedures, so we can't ignore the techniques and act arbitrarily. Tea ceremony is the master, because tea art, tea art as the main technology, carries the tea ceremony and becomes an art, and the two complement each other.
And the so-called? Doing business? Tao is the way to truly believe in friends and peace. Business ethics is based on honesty and personality is supreme. Faith is gold, and gold is faith. Be a man first, then do business, otherwise it will ruin business. ? Doing business has a skill, but there is no way to do it. Do business honestly and honestly, and maintain the rules of the game. Even if you are diligent, smart and speculative, you will certainly get the sincere cooperation of others, and the final benefits will be enjoyed and everyone will be happy. The combination of Tao and Tao, reaching heaven and reaching earth? Business will be successful one day. It can be inferred from this that tea ceremony is also a business road, and there is an essential connection between them.
It can be seen that although the tea ceremony thought is diverse and complicated, fundamentally speaking, the potential will of tea ceremony is the basic connotation of human nature and business ethics, as well as the art and aesthetics of human nature and business ethics.
By chance, a friend invited him to visit Wuyishan, and he was lucky enough to meet Mr. Lin Zhi, a researcher of tea ceremony in China. After the chat, he was very speculative and moved. On the one hand, I am amazed at Mr. Lin's rigorous academic spirit. He has been sitting on the cold carpet and has worn out an iron inkstone. Over the past few years, I have devoted myself to the study of China Tea Ceremony and the revival of China Tea Ceremony. On the one hand, people not only forget the quintessence of Chinese culture, castrate foreign goods and learn other people's business skills, but also damage their minimum personality and business ethics.
A truly successful businessman has the same heart as his business, and his personality and business ethics should be the same. This is the quality of tea ceremony. In view of this, as a tea man, as an admirer and lover of China Tea Ceremony, as a like-minded friend of Mr. Lin, as a businessman, we are willing to do our bit to promote tea culture in China.
