Browse quotes by subject Browse quotes by author KAKUZO OKAKURA QUOTES Tea began as a medicine and grew into a beverage. KAKUZO OKAKURA, Book of Tea Tea is a work of art and needs a master hand to bring out its noblest qualities. We have good and bad teas, as we have good and bad paintings generally the latter. KAKUZO OKAKURA, Book of Tea The Philosophy of Tea is not mere aestheticism ... for it expresses conjointly with ethics and religion our whole point of view about man and nature. It is hygiene, for it enforces cleanliness; it is economics, for it shows comfort in simplicity rather than in the complex and costly; it is moral geometry, inasmuch as it defines our sense of proportion to the universe. KAKUZO OKAKURA, Book of Tea Tea is more than an idealization of the form of drinking, it is a religion of the art of life. KAKUZO OKAKURA, Book of Tea RELATED LINKS Quotations Poetry Trivia Links

4. Okakura Kakuzo THE IDEALS OF THE EAST In fifteen chapters, Okakura Kakuzo offers a chronological account of Japanese art history from antiquity to the Meiji period. http://www.chss.iup.edu/baumler/Okakura_Kakuzo.html

THE IDEALS OF THE EAST Japan as part of a much larger geocultural sphere that includes China India Persia , and other regions in Asia . He also claims it as the repository of all the best traditions born of this sphere. The book is replete with characterizations of Japan tliat emphasize its unique superiority. Indeed, he more than matches the condescending tone of some Western "Orientalists" in this regard. Japan Is a Museum of Asiatic Civilization Asia is one. The Himalayas For if Asia It has been, however, the great privilege of Japan Japan Antioch and Alexandria It is in Japan Thus Japan is a museum of Asiatic civilization; and yet more than a museum, because the singular genius of the race leads it to dwell on all phases of the ideals of the past, in that spirit of living Advaitism which welcomes the new without losing the old. The Shinto [believer] still adheres to his old pre-Buddhist rites of ancestor worship; and the Buddhists themselves cling to each various school of religious development which had come in its natural order to enrich the soil. . . . Art with us, as elsewhere, is the expression of the highest and noblest of our national culture, so that, in order to understand it, we must pass in review the various phases of Confucian philosophy; the different ideals which the Buddhist mind has from time to time revealed; those mighty political cycles which have one after another unfurled the banner of nationality; the reflection in patriotic thought of the lights of poetry and the shadows of heroic characters; and the echoes, alike of the wailing of a multitude, and of the mad-seeming merriment of the laughter of a race.

Okakura Kakuzo's book, The Ideals of the East, published on the eve of the Russo-Japanese War, is famous for its opening line, "Asia is one." Okakura Kakuzo argued that Asia is "one" in its humiliation, of falling behind in achieving modernization, and thus being colonized by the Western powers.

Japanese Program News International Programs Resources ... Japanese Culture The Japanese Mind through Tea Return to Essay List The Japanese Mind through Tea Tetsurō Ogata Exchange student from RyÅ«koku University, Kyoto Japan December 15, 2006 1. I would like to explore the mind of the Japanese through the tea ceremony. I am Japanese, but I do not know how to explain what it is to be a Japanese. When I eat rice ( = ko-me=ç±³, go-han=ご飯) and drink green tea, I feel very comfortable, especially when I am staying in a foreign country. I suppose most Japanese people feel the same way. I cannot adequately express what I feel, but this feeling is like an abstract word; it is not easy for me to convey. That is why I am interested in tea ceremony and am trying to understand the mind of the Japanese through “the way of tea,” which in Japanese is called Chadō=茶道 or Chanoyu=茶の湯. Low entrance to a tea room. 茶道教室はた: www4.ocn.ne.jp/~hata87/nijiriguti2.jpg 2. The first thing that comes to my mind when thinking about Japanese tea is Sen RikyÅ« (1522-1591). He established the wabi (simple and quiet) style of tea, and is considered to be the greatest tea master of all time. RikyÅ« used tea as a direct approach to Zen. He chose simple, organic material, not only for utensils, but also for the overall environment of the tearoom. According to RikyÅ«, the four fundamental principles of tea are: wa =和 or “harmony”, kei=敬 or “respect”, sei=æ¸ or “purity”, and jaku=寂 or “tranquility.” These principles are incorporated in the practice as the heart of the way of tea and finally the way of life (Sen 1979). Anthropologist Jennifer Anderson considers these principles as the central bridges between the people, the cultural system, the tea function, and the individual. She thinks they are connected with Taoism, Confucianism, Shinto, and Buddhism (Anderson, 1991, p.213).
