Today I’m drinking matcha under the cherry blossoms in honor of @beecurious who taught me to dive even deeper into tea culture in Japan. It is said matcha tea has a deep connection with Zen Buddhism, as the practice of drinking tea was made popular by the founders of the Rinzai sect. In those days, tea was more a sort of medicine than a luxury item, filled with vitamins and even caffeine to sharpen the mind. After all, Zazen meditation can make us a bit sleepy at times, so tea was there to keep the practitioners awake. I spent the morning in meditation and now it’s time to relax and enjoy the caffeine.
