Today, I don't know if everyone drinks tea, how much one person drinks, or how much with others?
The sencha and tea of the Tang and Song dynasties have basically become a culture without fireworks for modern peopleIn fact, the literati of the Ming Dynasty left a kind of tea style, half fireworks and half elegance, if you drink tea alone and experience it, it feels really different.
Modern fast-paced life, the Ming Dynasty tea brewing method is suitable for most people, simple and convenient, elegant and quiet.
I once confessed to some friends that tea drinkers nowadays talk about slow life, but for most people, how slow can you be?You can take a break from your busy life, drink tea alone every day, and turn out a small whirlpool in the big river of fast-paced life, and it's good to stay for a while. We don't always be intoxicated by some nice words, and then the brain is over, and afterwards the body and mind are still different, while the heart is envious and slow, and the body is spinning.
The literati tea of the Ming Dynasty is not flashy, but real, plain and natural.
They pay attention to tea-oriented, practical and elegant.
They pay special attention to the artistic conception of tea drinking, and are very particular about the tea drinking environment and objects, which can be said to be unprovoked.
Environment, like elegant, quiet, do not like noisy, so I prefer to sip alone, tea drinkers are less.
For example, Zhang Yuan's "Tea Record" said that few guests are expensive, and the crowd is noisy, and there is no elegance when there are many people. Therefore, he admires that solitary sipping is a god, two guests are victorious, and three or four are okay. If there are many people, it is also like Feng Kebin's "Tea Notes" said: "Every guest, a pot, pour yourself and drink, it is fun."
The literati tea of the Ming Dynasty is a great inspiration to us modern people.
1. When drinking, the attention to the object of tea drinking is almost to the point of spiritual cleanliness. We must have a common artistic conception and interest, in our current words, if there are many people who cannot be synchronized, there is no need to echo them, and there is no need to be strong.
In addition, if the interest comes, I will go to nature to boil water and taste tea, watch the clouds and scrolls, watch the mountains and mountains, watch the river rolling, listen to the sound of the wind, listen to the sound of water, listen to the sound of boiling water and make tea, and use tea as a medium to lend myself to nature.
Second, when sipping alone, compared with the Song Dynasty tea fight, the literati of the Ming Dynasty liked to sip a few in the study tea house, clean a room, put a few, and drink alone. Like Chen Jiru's "The Story of the Small Window", cooking a pot of tea, burning incense, looking at the wall map of Bodhidharma, hanging curtains are few, the heart is calm and clear, and the air is soft and calm.
The tea life of the literati in the late Ming Dynasty is somewhat interesting to the background of our modern life.
In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yangming's mind thought arose, and the literati were liberated from Zhu Xi's science and thought, and attached importance to individual mindOn the other hand, in the late Ming Dynasty, the pressure of literati Zhenzhi life made reading no longer simply seek fame, such as Wen Zhengming, Xu Wei, Zhang Yuan, Chen Jiru, etc., began to devote themselves to the world and retreat to the Qing Dynasty, which promoted the literati to find tea and the leisure and freedom of tea life.
Today, modern people's thinking is more pluralistic, seeking a better life, and also attaching importance to the improvement of individual mindsOn the other hand, with the fast-paced and high-intensity pressure of life, I want to have a small space to give myself a little time for physical and mental freedom.
Therefore, I think that people who like to drink tea, have a drink with the right person, or concentrate on drinking tea alone, can understand the artistic conception of tea drinking in the Ming Dynasty.
The biggest tea culture left to us by the tea people of the Ming Dynasty is not only the brewing of simple life, but also the creation of the artistic conception of drinking tea. It leaves a lot of room for physical and mental upliftment.
Tea culture in the Ming Dynasty, I like Zhu Quan's "Tea Recipe" in one sentence, clear the heart and mind, out of the dust table. Every day, when you pour yourself a drink, you don't have to fall into the worldly feelings, you can drink alone, enjoy the elegance and play, you can take the meaning, you can get fun in the middle, and you can enjoy the fun.
