Our experience sessions view calligraphy and tea as holistic acts, integral to Zen practice, just like flower arrangement and incense appreciation. At the core is the belief that even mundane activities are part of spiritual training. In the Jodoji Experience, we draw images born from meditation in calligraphy, then use these as themes for tea ceremonies. This embodies the Buddhist ethos: 'Everything is interconnected, perceive without distinction, and sense the vastness and depth of the universe in all spaces.' This is the worldview we aim to share.
