  6. Four Basic Principles The chanoyu is a way to relieve the stress of everyday life, even for just a short while, by immersing in the Zen aesthetics of serenity and peace. Here are four of the philosophies portrayed in a Japanese tea ceremony: • Wa(harmony) – found in all the elements used in the ceremony and the room. The combination of colors, décor, equipment, all complement each other. • Kae (respect) – evident from the moment the guests pass through the nijiriguchi, a small entrance to the room. Guests kneel and bow to the hanging scroll, and sit as equals on the tatami mat. Each tea object is handled with the utmost care. • Sei(purity) – all stress and worry are left behind for a time. The space is meant to provide relaxation in the good company of friends. This concept is emphasized by the cleaning ritual of certain tea equipment such as the chawan, or tea bowl. • Jaku (tranquility) – this concept can only be achieved once the first three have been acknowledged and accepted.
