"What is the most important at a tea gathering?" a pupil asked Sen nô Rikyû.
- Prepare a delicious bowl of tea;
- Arrange the charcoal so, that it heats the water;
- Arrange the flowers, as they grow in the field;
- In summer suggest a feeling of coolness, in winter one of warm comfort;
- Prepare everything on time;
- Be prepared for rain,
- And give those, with whom you gather, your entire heart.
"...then I wish to become your student!"
as founded by Sen nô Rikyû (1522 - 1591)
is followed world-wide
by the Urasenke in Kyoto with
Sen Sôshitsu, descendant of Rikyû
in the 16. generation to this very day.
