1. 茶道（さどう） =Tea ceremony

2. 茶道のれきし Around the end of the 12th century, the style of tea preparation called "tencha" ( 点茶 ), in which powdered tea was placed in a bowl, hot water poured into the bowl, and the tea and hot water whipped together, was introduced by Eisai, a Japanese monk returning from China. This powdered green tea was first used in religious rituals in Buddhist Monasteries. By the 13th century, Samurai warriors had begun preparing and drinking matcha(powdered tea) as they adopted Zen Buddhism, and the foundations of the tea ceremony were laid. = History of tea ceremony

3. By the 16th century, tea drinking had spread to all levels of society in Japan. Sen no Rikyu( 千の りきゅう ), perhaps the most well-known historical figure in tea ceremony, pursued the concept of “Ichigo Ichie ” ( 一期一会（いちごいちえ）, a philosophy that each meeting should be treasured, for it can never be reproduced. His teachings perfected many newly developed forms in Japanese architecture and gardens, fine and applied arts, and the full development of 茶道, "the "way of tea". The principles he set forward - harmony ( 和, wa), respect ( 敬, kei), purity ( 清, sei), and tranquility ( 寂, jaku) - are still central to tea ceremony.
