When we are plagued by anxiety, we tend to make choices that make our situation worse and worse.

And then we start from the dependency of worrying.

*The tea ceremony is a culture linked to Zen teachings, called chazen iichimi (tea, Zen, and flavor). For this reason, Zen teachings and Zen words are also emphasized in the tea ceremony.

“Regrets of the past and fears of the future.”

It is often said that people are negatively influenced by “regrets of the past and fears of the future”.

The facts of the past cannot be changed, and the future is not known because it has not yet arrived.

Yet, people repeat delusions.

The Zen term for this is “makumozou” (莫妄想).

It teaches us not to be delusional.

However, I believe that human beings can’t help what they do.

If we could consciously stop doing the things we end up doing, we would have no trouble.

That is why I think it is important to

I don’t think of negative delusions in terms of my current situation.
I doubt if the anxiety should really be anxiety.
I will try to minimize the time I spend in negative fantasies.

I will focus on these three points.

It is because we assume “happiness or unhappiness” on our own that we become anxious.

Do you ever assume that you have to be this way or that you cannot be happy?

From such determination, you look to the past or the future and say, “I have to be this way in order not to be that way,” and then you drive yourself further and further into a corner, saying, “I have to be that way now.

In such a case, I urge you to say, “Now I’ve managed, this is a perfect score! You are doing a great job!” and praise yourself.

Then, strangely enough, your mind will calm down. The fact that you are present now is itself a perfect score.

“I wish this person would do this.
“I wish this person would do that.”
“I wish that person would do that.”

Have you ever thought like this?

If you have, this is the time to take advantage of Zen’s teachings.

The Zen word “Doji” means “to put oneself in the same position as the other person.

If you feel that you are being treated unfairly by those around you, or that things are not going conveniently, it is recommended that you reflect on how you are saying and doing things.

The important thing at this point is to think about how you would feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.

It may be difficult to do this, but the other person is just like you, and the most precious thing to them is themselves and their loved ones and family members.

Therefore, it is also important to take care of what they want to take care of.

For example.

Change the way you treat them.
Change the way you respond to what they say or do.
Change your perspective from “I can’t do it” to “How can I do it?

In Zen language, there is a word “douji,” which means “to put oneself in the same position as the other person.

If you find it difficult to do so, it may be easier to communicate by creating a situation where you can talk directly with the other person.

If it is difficult to put yourself in the other person’s shoes at that time, the following points are recommended. The following is just an example.

We want to build a good relationship with each other.
We want to know how best to build a good relationship.
I want to hear what you have to say to achieve this.
It is best to ask detailed questions so that you can get detailed answers such as, “What specific situation are you having trouble with and what would be the best situation?

If the question is “something that would be beneficial to the other party” in this way, communication is likely to be pleasant in many cases.

Of course, when you are discussing, please take the time to listen to the other person’s story to the end, and then talk about it.

It’s faster to change yourself than to change your partner!

“If that person becomes like this”　”If he behaves like that”　”If she did it this way,”

People tend to expect things from others. Why?

It’s “Because I want to be cherished.”. In that case, why don’t you take care of yourself first?

Focus on your hobbies and enjoy yourself.

In order to enrich everyday life, I use what I like everyday.

I eat my favorite food without restraint.

It may seem like a trivial thing, but think of it as a savings to take care of yourself.

If you entertain yourself, cherish them, and are always in a good mood, you’ll look more attractive.

When we neglect ourselves, we tend to seek rewards.

Then, it will be hard for you.

Please try to have a happy time with a smile every day.

One’s behavior is neither good nor bad

“not get a response from someone one likes”

“be moved from joy to sorrow by each other’s actions”

“If I were you, I wouldn’t behave like this. I’m not satisfied.”

People tend to look at what’s happening and make their own decisions about “Good” and “bad”.

It’s easy to understand why people feel uneasy or suspicious because their feelings are invisible and subject to change.

However, only the other person can understand their true feelings.

You can’t control it, you can’t make it visible.

Then, what you can do is to control your feelings.

For example, try to be as calm as possible and start a hobby to avoid thinking too much about your partner.

As you often hear, “Rather than desperately wanting a lover, I was able to do it in a flash when I was in a light mood!”
After controlling your own feelings.

In particular, let’s get rid of the idea that “I can’t go without him!” or “I can’t be happy without him!”.

It’s great to have a good relationship with a particular person, but you’re not unhappy without that person.

There is no right answer to everything, and happiness is something you can create for yourself, not for others.

You are attractive because you are who you are.

A common story about love is “be liked by someone who one doesn’t think is attractive”.

If this is liked by the other person and you like it, it will be happy both ways.

However, it is also the fun of humans that it doesn’t happen for some reason.

How do you behave when you think you’re attractive?

Most people are probably trying to make themselves look better or to dress up.

In other words, they show more falsehood than they usually do.

But you don’t have to fake it or dress it up when you don’t think it’s that attractive.

Then, the other person can relax as he is naturally in his usual self.

People who are attracted to it will like you.

As science has shown, when you fall in love, your brain is not in a normal state and your judgment is impaired.

Just know that “Oh, yeah.” and try to be as good as you can.

Try to be honest with yourself, for example, by having your own opinion or not pandering to others.

It is very important to convey your feelings and opinions to others, not to be selfish.

Write down the pros and cons that you are usually unaware of

Unexpectedly, the blind spot is about the merits and demerits that you think casually in your mind.

For example, “I want to get married! ”  have a woman who thinks that.

She was very active in getting married, and even a man once proposed to her.

But she won’t get married. Of course, timing is important, but it can also be related to own assumptions.

For example, She think “when I get married, I have to be feminine every day. I feel like I have to get married because there are more married friends around me.

When I get married, I have to do unpleasant housework, and when I get married, lose freedom.

Marriage is a seemingly positive keyword, but there are many things that can be considered negative.

Everything has a back and a front, a light and a shadow, and when you get something, you lose something.

Still, I want to get it! That’s why people move and judge.

Like love, when you have a lover, you spend more time with your lover, but in other words, you don’t have enough time.

Some people who can state clearly that they don’t want to get married or have a lover.

In this way, you should be honest with yourself in a calm place and write it down. There may be new discoveries.

If it was negative and I really hated it! If you find something like this:.

For example, how can you solve it and think of a solution, or maybe it’s just an assumption? You should doubt that.

Surprisingly, the benefits you want to get are more than the ones you don’t care about or solve.

People feel uneasy about things they don’t know or don’t know because they are vague, and they amplify them.

In fact, it can be easily solved by clarifying the pros and cons and dealing with them one by one.

If it remains vague, the demerits will add anxiety and you will be unable to move.

It is easier to find a solution to the problem if you objectively clarify the concept of “yourself” in words.

You don’t have partner to be happy, but You want to be happier if You become happy! You’ll meet someone who thinks that.

And Japanese tea ceremony basically doesn’t talk. We communicate in manners. Even if you speak, there is a form.

For example, someone who is the representative of the customer side can talk to the organizer. There is an order to speak, and there are detailed rules. Since it is such a tea ceremony, I want to do it! In this case, practice is the primary focus.

First of all, you need to practice a lot, otherwise you can’t have a tea party. And you can’t entertain the other person. If you want to learn tea ceremony, you often go to a tea ceremony class and practice a lot.

The essence of such a tea ceremony is the same as Zen.

For example, one of the concepts of tea ceremony and Zen is “Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once-in-a-lifetime experience”. This means that meeting with everyone is important.

It’s like a metaphor of being so precious that you can meet only once in your life.

In the case of many Japanese education, it is generally known as a four-character idiom, but it is said to be derived from the idea of the tea ceremony.

This is because there is no tea ceremony like this twice, and it is very precious to meet people at Japanese tea ceremony.

You may not experience this “Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once-in-a-lifetime experience” in your daily life.

But for example, when you meet a new person, or when you want to do something with someone for some reason, you should look at it this way.

“Maybe I have something to do with him.”. Even if they are of the same sex or of the opposite sex. It’s not that you expect something from them, but maybe you have new discoveries or things in common.

Because, in any case, meeting people is fun, and anything you do is there.

In fact, the other meaning of this is to treat others with care.

If you think each encounter is special, you value the other person, don’t you? If you do that, you won’t have a bad attitude and you will naturally smile.

If you treat each other with respect, you can have a good time with each other. That’s right, feelings are expressed in actions.

The feelings you care about are reflected in the actions you care about others, and that leads to good things for both of us later on. That way of thinking has been handed down in Japan.

Even the days that pass and the encounters with people change a little, and the world changes completely. If you value of tea ceremony, you will expand your world.

Is that really a bad thing? try to doubt

In the teaching of Zen there is a phrase: To distinguish right from wrong is difficult” .

This means that no matter what you do, no matter who you are, you cannot decide whether you are good or bad.

For example, if you are in debt, have an inferiority complex, or are a gambler, you can be positive.

If you can borrow money, you’ll get that much credit, and if you can’t, you’ll be motivated to make the most of your money.

If your body has an inferiority complex, you can understand people’s pain and sadness, and it can trigger your efforts to improve.

If you love gambling, you’re spinning the economy.

The idea of “Don’t do this!” is basically a reflection of the way people think and determines whether things are good or bad.

One time you doubt if this is really bad, you’ll feel a little better.

Don’t you think that you are doing something bad and you are not good?

“I can’t be in this situation now, so I’m a bad person! “Some people may think that.

“I’m in debt, so I’m a hopeless case!”

“I have a complex about my body, so people don’t love me!”

“I love gambling, so I can’t get married, and I can’t have a stable and peaceful family. I’m a hopeless person!”

This kind of self-restraint is called “untied self” .

Then, my heart and feelings become more and more painful.

First of all, change your way of thinking so that your mind and feelings become calm.

Let’s bring back a calm mind.

There are words like “all things are created by the mind alone” .

This means that your mind is creating the phenomena around you.

In other words, if you’re worried, you’re creating it.

For example, you need to analyze why you’re worried about debt.

There are many people who don’t worry about borrowing money. Why you worry is important.

Maybe I was so lonely that I treated many people.

I shop a lot because I want to be called “You’re always beautiful.” by many people.

In this case, it starts with “a feeling of loneliness” or “the condition of being compared to others”.

As long as you don’t get rid of that feeling, it will be easier for you to continue borrowing money.

You’re probably doing it because you want to, rather than because you really don’t want to.

“I don’t want to do it, but I am doing it.” makes it easy to lead to worries.

It is necessary to understand why people with a complex about their body have such a complex.

They may say that they don’t think they are beautiful compared to others, so they want to wear cool clothes.

Again, it’s “feel bad because one feels inferior” compared to someone or something.

In this case, too, you think “a person who is inferior to others” is a bad idea.

No one is perfect.

Surprisingly, what you have an inferiority complex about may be trivial for people around you, or conversely, you may be attracted to it.

By all means, please know that you have something wonderful about yourself and that you won’t be unhappy just because you have an inferiority complex.

It’s easier to find the right solution if you calm down.

If you keep clinging to your worries, you may not be able to judge calmly.

I sometimes start to think “The problem may be solved soon.”.

But find out what’s behind your troubles calmly.

For example, analyze what you like about gambling.

But if you can’t find something to do, it’s a good idea to find other hobbies.

If you want to use your excitement when you win or your frustration when you lose as a springboard, you can use it to your work.

If your current job doesn’t allow you to do that, you can consider switching to another job that will give you that feeling.

Organizing your thoughts and feelings in this way makes it easier for you to find what you wanted or thought was missing.

Replacing it with something else or looking at it from a different point of view makes it easier to link the problem to a solution.

Please try it.

Removing clutter makes it easier to find what you need

If there is something unnecessary, it takes time to find out what is necessary.

If I had that time, I might have spent more time on other things.

Also, the word “waste” is a great way to think, but on the other hand, you can say something like this.

I am obsessed with the past and anxious about the future.

For example, the fact that those clothes were too expensive to throw away is an obsession with the past.

If you dig deeper, you may not be able to buy such expensive clothes by yourself in the future.

I had a wonderful time at that time, and I want to keep it as a symbol of that, because I may not have more time in the future.

When we focus our attention on events in the past and on the future that we don’t know what to expect, we neglect our “as of now”.

The future is made up of “as of now” which build up and connect.

That’s why “as of now” is the happiest! Don’t think too much about the past and the future.

If you keep it clean, you can live a healthy life.

After all, cleanliness is very important.

If you spend time in a dirty place like a garbage dump, you are likely to get sick.

If you do that, you will not pay attention to the details of your daily life, and you will not value yourself more and more.

In English, people who live in a garbage mansion are also called “self-neglect”.

What this means is that you are abusing yourself.

It is very sad to abuse by yourself.

If it’s difficult, you can ask for help.

You can take a step, so please be aware of the cleanliness.

Cleaning is also called mental cleaning.

Cleaned up, and put things in order, and now you feel refreshed! It felt good! There are many people who have the experience that.

Scientists have found that cleaning and clearing up can make your brain feel better.

It seems to have various reasons and effects.

For example, the more you clean, the more you see the effect, which makes you happy, and the more you make your own decisions, the better your brain will be.

If you’re not organized in your brain, you may feel anxious or worried too much.

Especially, it’s no use worrying about something you can’t do by yourself.

Cleaning up your mind also helps you organize your thoughts and feelings.

If you’re in trouble, it’s a good idea to clean and tidy up.

Effect of mental cleaning

In addition, I recommend you to clean your mind about the thoughts and beliefs you want to give up.

People create events of what they believe to be, what they take for granted.

To put it another way, you should recognize what you have decided about yourself as your own experience.

For example, a person named A thinks, “be often blamed by others”.

One day,her colleague,  C blamed her. Then, A thought, “And I was blamed!”.

“I was blamed again, I was blamed when I was young, I was blamed, I am bad, and I have no value. And it gets more and more negative.”

And there are feelings of sadness and regret for being blamed.

“This leads to the idea that I am hurt, that my value is low, and that it is hard to live.”

B think  “No matter what anyone says to me, I won’t get hurt unless I understand.”.

One day, her colleague, C blamed her. Then, B think “Oh, she said something.”.

But as long as she don’t accept the blame, she is not at fault.

Also, if she are convinced and feel that she are wrong, she simply think that there was a mistake in her behavior and reflect on it.

“I never blame myself there.”

However, at that time, there was a mistake in one of thoughts, and that behavior was inappropriate at that time.

Then, it’s just a part of daily life that there was such an event.

You just have to be careful not to have the same thing happen again.

How do you like it?

Even if a similar event occurs, people around them and their daily lives will change just because they have different ways of thinking and thinking.

People can always change by facing themselves and organizing their thoughts and feelings.

If you change yourself, your life changes.

Let’s make good use of the Zen of tea ceremony and have a wonderful and fun day.

“In my opinion, there is a gap, but I envy it.”
“I hope my efforts will be rewarded and lead to good results. “
“It’s very ideal, but far from my situation.”

I will tell you the secret to achieving your dream, with Zen teachings.

Tea ceremony is considered to be essentially the same as Zen.

Have you ever heard the word “Everything is regarded as relative.All is vanity.”? In short, this is “Everything, nothing.”.

It’s a bit difficult, but it expresses the essence of things. I will tell you how to do it with more concrete examples.

Not judge by what is visible

If you get that situation, or something that shows that situation, you’ll be happy!

If I have a good title and get good grades at a good school, my life is perfect!

I will be satisfied if others think I am a good person and my family praise me!

Don’t you think like this and make your present wish?

That’s what I think.But the secret to making your dream come true is that it’s difficult to start from there.

Want it from “No”, but no matter how long it takes, “No”

If your dream is “shortage” and you think, “want” there are points to be aware of.

“I am unhappy because I am not rich. So now I am unhappy.”

“I’m not beautiful, so I won’t be loved. Therefore, I am unloved and unhappy now.”

“I fail in life because I don’t do well at a good school. So it’s a life of failure.”

If you are not considered a good person by your family and friends, you will be disliked. If you are disliked, you will become unhappy because you have no place to go.

In these cases, you’re thinking, “Now unhappy, not loved, hated, failed in life”.

Dreams come true when the gap between your aspirations and ideals and reality is filled.

If you keep looking at your aspirations and ideals with a gap in your consciousness, it will only get harder.

You don’t have to say “Yes” because you already have it.

So I want you to change your mind a little.

“I feel happy now. So you can be rich. I’m sure.”

“I feel satisfied now. So you can be beautiful to someone. It must be.”

“I am enjoying life. So you don’t have to force yourself to get good grades at a good school. You will naturally want to study something independently.”

“I am always loved. So you don’t have to worry about what your family and the people around you think. No matter what they say, they just worry about me.”

When you think in this way, you are on the line of ideals and desires in your mind.

What’s more, when you change your way of thinking and consciousness, your behavior changes.

If you want to be rich, you might want to study for the rich.

If you think she’s beautiful, you might collect beauty information and challenge her.

By acting in this way, your ideals and wishes come true.

Reality is already important for “Yes”!

Feeling fulfilled, loved, in your hand, and having fun amplifies it even more.

That’s why a happy mood carries events, things, and people that make you happy.

It can be your “Going to Hawaii for 2 weeks”
or “You can get a ticket at a good seat at a live concert of your favorite famous artist.”
Or “the condition of being loved by the opposite sex and having a happy marriage”.

So how do you get it?

That’s what makes me feel the realism of “Yes” already.

The important thing for the senses is to “Yes” everything now.

If you want to achieve “emigration to one’s dream country”.

“move to one’s dream country” What kind of experiences do you have and how do you feel about it?

How do you like shopping there?

If it is already decided, they may check the information magazines of the country.

They may be walking in their favorite clothes in a beautiful place.

In this way, let’s see how you feel as if you were experiencing it.

Before you know it, you will be able to realize that “move to one’s dream country”.

Easy way to do it in a world where information is readily available.

We are now in a situation where we can easily obtain huge amounts of information on the Internet.

With a little searching, you can find all kinds of information, whether it’s video, images, or text.

That’s why you should search for your ideals and desires on the internet.

Use it to choose what makes you happier.Your life will surely become richer.

Zen is an idea that makes your mind comfortable

Zen is basically mental independence.

In Zen, “protagonist” there is a word (Shujinkou) which means “one’s original self”.

Don’t compare yourself to anyone, don’t get caught up in other people’s common sense or common sense, and be yourself.

It doesn’t matter what you like or dislike.

It doesn’t matter who you like or dislike.

You don’t have to be, you can be if you want to be.

Whatever the situation, it’s important not to lie to your true feelings.

The key to meditation is to empty your mind

Speaking of meditation, many people think of zazen and mindfulness.

But if you do it the way you’re told, it’s surprisingly difficult.

When you think, “Don’t think about it!” your brain somehow says, “think about”.

In that case, you don’t have to try hard. The main purpose of meditation is to be absent-minded.

The human brain thinks more than 60,000 words a day, so it stops its power a little.

In particular, as the emotions get stronger, their power consumption increases. It makes your brain tired and your body tired.

So the best recommendation is not to meditate perfectly right away.

It’s a good idea to take time to relax, like “relief” yourself, or go somewhere you can relax.

For example, time to drink a cup of your favorite tea, time to just gaze at nature, or time to lie in bed.

You can expect a relaxing effect by just waiting for even one minute like this.

The most important thing in Zen and meditation is 「now」

There is a teaching in Zen that means “Every day is a good day” and (We can appreciate every moment of our life).

The central tenet of Zen is that “I’m here.”.

Meditation is also about “at this moment” and not about the past or the future.

The two have in common the concept of “now.”.

By focusing on the “now” and cherishing the “now”, you don’t think and feel unnecessary things.

This way of thinking and feeling changes how you see and think about your world.

Mind reflects the world

If you feel that your situation or the world is “painful” and think that’s the way it is, your behavior will be affected.

If you’re in a “painful” world, it makes no sense in your head if you’re not being treated “painful”.

As a result, you become a person who acts and looks like you are being treated “painful”.

Of course, it will change like that unconsciously.

But if you think of it as a “pleasant and comfortable” world, that’s the way it goes.

That’s why you should be aware of the way you think and act to get the feeling you want.

For example, to increase the time for fun hobbies and to prepare comfortable bedding.

Even small things close to you are fine. The world will change by increasing it little by little.

In addition, here are three of the benefits of using the good parts of Zen and meditation.

Free from guilt and receiving love and affluence

“Although I was praised, I feel sorry.”
“Somehow I don’t know if I should be in this place.”
“I always blame myself for being wrong.”

Have you ever felt like this? This is especially true when there are rules and assumptions.

The Zen word has the meaning of “flexible mind” (Nyunaruga), a mind that is free from common sense and assumptions.

You feel “It has to be like this.” “This is normal.” “It should be like this.”.

Write them down one by one.Is that really true?

If that idea is holding you back, think about it or lose it.It will surely make your heart feel lighter.

Get rid of one’s inferiority complex and lose the ability to compare oneself with others

“Unlike him, I have no value, so I can’t do anything.”
“I can’t be happy because there are so many things I can’t do.”
“Everything has to be perfect to be worth oneself.”

Don’t you feel like you are always down there?

This is especially because they compare with people. Also, some people compare it to the ideal image that they made by themselves, not people.

The Zen word also has the meaning of “Knowing contentment” and (Chi soku) which means to know if there is enough.

People want to see things “No”. I have a constant desire for that and this.

I don’t mean to deny the desire.

But how you feel depends on whether you want it because it’s “No” or if you already have “Yes” but want more.

Look at what’s “Yes” in you rather than what’s “No” in you.

Then you “Yes” and you’re actually satisfied! You’ll notice that.

You can feel a sense of openness and challenge yourself

Feelings of guilt and inferiority are expressed by being tied down and worrying about others.

However, when these two things are gone, you can feel a sense of openness.

You don’t have to worry about anything and you can feel confident about yourself.

It’s easy to challenge things you’ve always wanted to or tried.

I’m sure your world will become richer and more enjoyable.

People are beautiful when they are not perfect

In Zen and tea ceremony, not everything is required to be clean and perfect.

It is a way of thinking that it is beautiful because there are good parts and bad parts from the back and the front.

This is called “asymmetry”.

Of course, there are many ways of thinking, but no one is perfect.

People who are often praised by others as “He’s perfect!” may actually have a problem.

You may have an inferiority complex in yourself, but there are good points instead.

It is only when there is light and shadow that it shines.

First, don’t blame yourself. That’s part of it, but including that, it’s okay! Let’s think.

Question one’s own common sense and rules

You should have more friends, accept any kind of job, and be kind to others all the time.

The common sense and rules that I think of as “I know you’re thinking,”.

If you think you’re a little too formal, try doubting the opposite.

You don’t have to have friends, you can work with customers, you don’t have to worry about people all the time.

When you think about it that way, there are people who think the same thing unexpectedly.

Even if you break the rules and common sense, you may not have any problems.

This freedom from rules and frameworks is called “secularism” (Datsuzoku).

The interesting thing is that by being obsessed with such common sense and rules, you are strangling yourself.

For example, at the previous company, Mr. A had a relationship with Mr. B, who was his partner, and undertook a cheap and high-quality job.

Mr. A thought, “You’ve been a great help to me before, and I’ll do anything to help you improve your skills!”.

He immediately replied to me, “Yes! I’ll do it!” and even sacrificed himself for his work.

Get rid of one’s insecurity and obsession, as one does not compare with others or those around one

Zen has the words “silent delusion” . This means not to be too paranoid.

For example, it’s better to have more friends, so you have to participate in every play.

No one likes him at the meeting unless he is always smiling and in a good mood.

Thinking like that is also a delusion. You don’t have to have friends in the first place. And you don’t have to participate in every play.

You don’t have to smile every time you get together and be in a good mood.

That’s right. They create the anxiety of “I have to.” by themselves.

You don’t have to compare yourself with anyone. You don’t have to believe what someone is saying, and you don’t have to worry about what makes you uncomfortable.

It is you who can control your mind.

You don’t have to lie about yourself and live for someone else

Quitting looking big or showing a lie is called “simplicity” (Kanso) in Zen language.

This is very simple. It is better to leave out the useless things and do as they are. That’s the teaching.

For example, you don’t really like to cook, but you have to be a good cook to get high marks from the opposite sex.

Otherwise you can’t fall in love or get married. Therefore, they pretend to be good at cooking to the opposite sex they like.

If your partner asks you to be a good cook for a long time after you get married, it will surely make you suffer.

And you may get tired of lying and take it out on them.

The fastest way to stay happy is simply to be honest with yourself.

If someone leaves, it’s okay. Please be your best ally.

Once in the lifetime chance and meeting means that meeting with all people should be cherished.

It is a parable that it is so valuable that you can only meet once in a one-time life.

In many cases of education in Japan, it is commonly known as a four-character idiom, but it is said to be derived from the way of thinking of tea ceremony.

That is because there is no same tea ceremony again, and meeting with people who meet at it is very valuable.

It is a Buddhist language and means the period from the birth of a person to his death.

And it means that people meet only once.

In Japan, you may not usually experience this “one-in-one meeting” in Japan.

But, for example, when you meet new people or when you want to put something together with someone with something, think about it with this kind of perspective.

“If I have something to do with this person…”

Even if it is the same sex or the opposite sex.

It does not mean that you expect something from your opponent,

Perhaps there may be new discoveries, and there may be similarities.

Because, in any case, meeting people is interesting and something happens.

In fact, the other meaning of this “Once in the lifetime chance and meeting” is also to treat the other carefully.

If you think that every single encounter is special, do you think the other person is important?

Then we think that we will not take a bad attitude and I will naturally smile.

When we treat each other in a manner that values ​​the other party, we can spend each other feeling good.

Yes, feelings appear in action.

Feelings of importance are reflected in actions of cherishing the other, which leads to good things for each other later.

Such a way of thinking is passed on to Japan.

Meeting people makes your life richer.

If you cherish Japanese tea ceremony “Once in the lifetime chance and meeting”, your world will expand rapidly.

Once in the lifetime chance and meeting is a parable of valuing encounters in the sense that you can only meet once in a one-time life.

In Japanese education, this is generally known as a four-character idiom, but it is said to be derived from the way of thinking of tea ceremony.

This is a Buddhist language and means the period from the birth of a person to one’s death.

It means to meet only once.

Somehow, the passing days and encounters with people change the world by changing the consciousness a little.

What I cherish is to enjoy and enrich life through Japanese tea ceremony.

Please enjoy yourself and enrich your life through  tea ceremony.
