The mind is host, the body guest.
-Japanese saying
move to the place of honor
cover your mouth and say gochisosama
only lift the bowl to your mouth and drink
face the doorway only if urged
value subtlety
never speak in a loud voice
if green tea arrives pour it in the rice bowl
never speak in a loud voice
exchange gifts and settle all debts
signify a promise
never be demonstrative
when you drink, never pour
smile or laugh
cover your mouth
as one lamp serves, two enchant.
focus on it's beauty.
