The Glocal Book:"The Book of Tea" by Okakura Kakuzou(Tenshin)-No.112

Natural Love of Simplicity &

The Beauty of Humanity

『Great as has benn the influence of the tea-masters in the field of art, it is as nothing compared to that which they have exerted on the conduct of life.

Not only in the usages of polite society, but also in the arrangement of all our domestic details, do we feel the presence of the tea-masters.

Many of our delicate dishes, as well as way of serving food, are their inventions.

They have taught us to dress only in garments of sober colours.

They have instructed us the beaty of humanity.

In fact, through their teachings tea has entered the life of the people.』
（From the Book of Tea; Teqa-Masters, p.112, Charles E. Tuttle Co., Rutland, Vermont,Tokyo, Japan)
