this was great to see, after growing up near Morikami & visiting their so often but the tea ceremonies are extra special so thank you for sharing this!
dude, this is cool
I saw the tea ceremony there yesterday. It has changed a little bit since this video.
speed without haste. lady is very professional.
shame the video is cut so much, the poor sound bites and music runs out 3x
This video is a nice preview, but edited for 10 minute brevity. I suggest you make a new one at the Morikami tea house, which is a fine and popular museum in Florida. They have frequent tea ceremonies for public, and visitors always ask about a UA-cam video.
@tadonks The video is "cut so much" because it needed to fit into UA-cam's 10 minute limit, which was still active when I uploaded it. Now videos can be as long as you want them to be. I wish that was the case back then.
Everyone should experience Chado... If anyone lives in Miami Florida A Dr. Eric Messersmith at Florida International University teaches this to students as part of the East Asian Studies program. VERY good class to have taken
cool
what's with the tiny door
It is called a Nijiriguchi and is one of the most important part of the ritual . It is a symbolic entrance where pople have to bow to get through and it meant that to enter the Chashitsu or tea room, the guests has to leave their status and privilidge at the door and that once inside, everybody was equal .
In 2019 in may not make much sense ,, but when the Japanaese tea ceremony first took place , centuries ago. It means that the Daimyo or Lord and the peasant were at the same level once inside . The Samurai had to bow the same way the commoners did , and he wasn't allowed to bring his swords inside (a warrior was never allowed to leave his sword unattended , except when entering a tea room ) and would have never bowed to anyone but his Lord, except when entering a tea room . The meaning of this tiny door is extremely important .
The one thing Rikyu didn't think of was disabled people , it is impossible for disabled people to enter through a Nijiri guchi so it is in a way discriminatory .
My mother in law who is Japanese and a tea ceremony master , also makes jokes about the Bijiguchi when she is in the US . Saying , Unfortunately , most americans can't go through the door so an american size nijiriguchi is a regular Japanese door . She has a fabulour sense of humour .
What is the music? Shazaam is no help...
It's a track called "Shogun" from the iLife tracks library.
Raoul Pop Thanks!
