Japanese Tea Ceremony: Tea At Koken WITH SOUND

[@flowlee3656]

I saw a tea ceremony live. the whole room was so quiet and the atmosphere was amazing. It was probably a once in a lifetime happening, so I'm very glad I got the chance to see this.

[@bananafingerrrs]

The original ASMR video, long before anyone knew what ASMR was. Simply the best!

[@thatoneguy12ize]

bananafingerrrs that's actually Bob Ross bro

[@thatoneguy12ize]

or for me atleast

[@USNavyMC]

Absolutely Bob Ross. Joy of Painting was triggering me back in the early 90s.

[@nicolemurray449]

12 years ago, long before the asmr concept, i joined a tea ceremony club because i loved the sounds so much

[@SunSign]

In it’s heyday, it was one of the stopping places for the jet set, even before anybody knew what a jet set was.

[@EtreTocsin]

I am so glad that the tea ceremony has managed to survive throughout the millennia as it has. So beautiful.

[@Samurai-Inferno]

I know right??!!

[@Gist432]

The best ASMR is rarely meant as ASMR. Yes this is meant to bring about peace and tranquility, but ASMR wasn't the intended goal.

[@igobivo]

so true

[@SonicStalker123]

Gist432 what is ASMR?

[@TheSheaminator]

Auto...sensory... it's that tingly feeling you get when you hear or see a certain kind of stimulus, whether that be a relaxing voice, or seeing someone perform a slow deliberate movement. There can be many triggers and there are many videos available to explore. Welcome to the rabbit hole of ASMR. Enjoy.

[@HiddenWen]

Agreed, the best kind of ASMR is unintentional.

[@pattheticc]

Gist432 True. I find asmr channels with fake gestures and whispers stupid

[@ohsosmooth01]

Can't believe I'm saying this, but what I found extremely fascinating was the ever so slight difference in sound the 2 temperatures of water make when poured into the bowl. It's very subtle, but there is a difference!

[@LisaBeergutHolst]

Steve Mould made a neat video about that.

[@manDroidXX96]

(takes sip) "This is terrible"

[@coloneljak42_]

[@manDroidXX96]

Yes, quite terrible. I see why your path to the sword is clouded

[@Commander_Shepard.]

I find it infuriating. No I'm not joking.

[@Hellzabeth]

Is the slowness irritating for you? That's kinda interesting, the slowness is what makes me relax and slow down too. I wonder why some people don't enjoy it... maybe they feel they don't have time to go slow?

[@tinahuttner7280]

Its too much of perfection😒but then its what they consider tea ceremony.

[@YoutuberGrudge]

@Rodrigo Galvão but then where is tranquility in that?

[@jayketro]

Beautiful demonstration of mindfulness.

[@femoman]

Why am I so obsessed with Japanese culture? Simple: Because everything there is refined into either an elegant artform or a spiritual meditative process. Writing calligraphy, pruning tiny trees, arranging flowers, folding paper, or even something as basic as brewing and drinking tea!

[@thebiggestofchungi3538]

@Andre Marchand or working with such ferocity that it results in death, or literally just killing themselves due to not being able to deal with the almost complete lack of individual ability to flaunt the insane amount of rigidity and structure in their society. Yeah such a wonderful culture

[@thebiggestofchungi3538]

Thank you for taking the time to read and like my reply

[@shaitet]

[@ariesvalliant760]

Well duh yall no culture is perfect let them enjoy the good aspect of it

[@vmxkarelyn_0842]

Or maybe you're just a weeb. No I'm not a weeb. If you're wondering about my pfp, that's because I decided not to use a picture of myself.

[@romanknight7199]

I appreciate this video so much after wading through a bunch with narration -- or time jumps. I came for the ceremony, just that, and all of that. Thank you.

[@Titan-jg1fj]

I like watching video's like this because it's relaxing and it helps me slow down in order to not become a burnout figuratively and literally speaking. If someone just keeps moving without taking things easy you will shorten your life span and most likely be less happy with yourself throughout that life span as well. Watching these video's helps with that problem. I live in the U.S and people think I am crazy for doing this until I tell them that being alive is important as well and should not be taken for granted.

[@charlotteroberts501]

self preservation is the key to serenity of life :) xx

[@Titan-jg1fj]

Charlotte Roberts would you believe me if I said I never knew that until you mentioned it? Domo arigato! I REALLY needed to hear that actually. You would not care to believe me if I told you how not knowing that (until just now) has impacted my life. I think you just added 10 years to my maximum life span. :)

[@charlotteroberts501]

Accepted Giant i would believe you. :) i believe that when we believe in ourselves, life becomes more real and accessible. one of my most favourite quotes is 'can you remember who you were before the world told you how to be', which is why understanding ourselves creates peace of mind. i am aware it sounds simple to some, but since i discovered this, i have been free falling into every emotion and i have never been more full as a human until i reached self acceptance. :)xx peace to you my san! :)

[@Titan-jg1fj]

Charlotte Roberts You know I never heard that explained to me that way and it's obvious you knew that. You see I only recently totally accepted myself only about this time last year (Oct6th2013) and that is why I chose the name accepted giant. Of course the giant part is more literal then symbolic because I am 6'6" tall in real life. I only knew of that peace of mind you where talking about for only just over a year(I am 37 now). I was not even in denial I was simply to distracted by everyday survival to be able to function correctly. I am built like a tank but I am still made out of flesh and blood like everyone else. Usually I am the one who really has the wisdom in most debates but this time I found someone who is wiser then me. I find that rather refreshing and relaxing somehow. :)

[@charlotteroberts501]

that makes me happy that another human has found serenity of self! :) i hope that your life flow will become smoother now you are on a more centred journey :) we are forever learning from and off each other - wisdom comes from understanding one another and allowing acceptance of humanity into your frame of reference - i find its about remembering that the person in front of you is only as human as yourself and humans are magnificent beings :) i am happy to know you feel relaxed and mellowed by my understandings :) take care and spread peace my friend :)

[@AriochStarr]

I've got a tingling sensation just below the back of my neck I can't believe I've seen an actual Japanese Tea Ceremony . . . WITH SOUND! It was really lovely

[@hantehsanyall]

I’m here from the future, wondering if you’re exploring the weird world of ASMR.

[@AafkeArt]

A beautiful chanoyu video. And so nice that is has the real sound. It seems all other videos need to put some music or bird noise over it. This is how it should be. Beautifully done. Very serene, very beautiful

[@rickforrest6675]

I had the great honor of taking Tea with Joy on 3 or 4 occasions. She is a lovely, remarkable person

[@dongoede]

You may use any of this video you want for educational purposes. Thank you for asking permission.

[@CommissarKane]

Give me chills seeing the level perfection in everything the japanese do, even something as small as tea.

[@SonicStalker123]

CommissarKane I love it. I love of the perfection in this country

[@gardnerberry113]

Except the operation of nuclear reactors.

[@ΑξίαςΑθηναίος]

Gardner Berry wow. So quick and sharp

[@YoutuberGrudge]

Nothing is ever small; everything has many, many processes behind it that made it. To take the time to honor something with a ceremony is to honor everything and everyone that made it possible.

[@ggggg77273]

or you could just make the tea in like 2 seconds.

[@stevenwhuntva]

Been watching this periodically for at least 11 years and the cloth snap still startles me every time.

[@creemeeontop]

Was in Kamakura a couple of years ago and saw one ceremony live. It was so relaxing to watch. Love the attention to each movement.

[@goatwarrior3570]

Watching this makes me feel so peaceful. Seeing a Japanese tea ceremony in person is on my bucket list.

[@dhireendrasingh7748]

Abaddon Interitus masts JAL pari

[@SonicStalker123]

Abaddon Interitus I went to one two weeks ago in my tour guide. It was called Japan Deluxe Tour. It was an amazing tour. I have never felt so relaxed in my life. We got to make our own green tea. This was a beautiful ceremony. Totally recommend going!

[@margaretguenther4703]

Abaddon Interitus we are going to do this this year for a Field trip!!! I'm so excited!!!

[@datalorev]

I have partook in a tea ceremony in Tokyo. It was fantastic but it was really hard to sit that way if you aren’t used to it.

[@raulquiroz7492]

Me too. Japan is a beautiful country with beautiful people and customs.

[@AriochStarr]

I've found my original comment from half a decade ago. Here it is, and I quote: "I've got a tingling sensation just below the back of my neck I can't believe I've seen an actual Japanese Tea Ceremony . . . WITH SOUND! It was really lovely" Re-watching it today and I still get the same sensation. I don't know what it is, but a guy replied to me back then with somewhat interesting "explaination" and I use the term very loosely because it doesn't explain exactly why I get this feeling. Here is that comment: "@AriochStarr I get that sensation when I'm learning/watching something interesting. You're actually the first person I've known that has had the same thing." It kinda does make sense as I do find it interesting, even if it is slightly. It's really weird what I'm generally feeling, though. Just out of curiosity, does anyone else have the same tingling sensation?

[@fkkkkkenig]

it's asmr

[@AriochStarr]

Yeah, after some research, I found it. It's an interesting feeling to say the least.

[@TaekoHikeshi]

I have a Japanese boyfriend and I’m trying to learn more about his culture to make a good impression to his family! :)

[@LisaBeergutHolst]

@@fkkkkkenig The "M" apparently stands for "meridian". It's pseudoscientific gibberish lol

[@baval5]

Nobody ever claimed it was real science. But it is a sensation that some people get that previously didn't have a name. Now it does.

[@woodyclark4396]

This is the best example of the tea ceremony I've found on KZbin and the entire web. Well done!

[@viktorijap.3118]

[@warsong5]

Jack's face is priceless

[@KekBo]

This is so relaxing to watch. Thank you for not spoiling it by playing background music.

[@kristensoprano]

An incredibly beautiful video. I'd love to learn this. It shows the beauty in every single step, each has a purpose and is done fully. It shows the doing and undoing of an action, the deliberateness of one simple task. If only we could appreciate and approach every task we do each day with such grace. We would always find joy in the peace of chores and necessary tasks.

[@dapocoker]

what's important here is that the process of HOW something is done, i.e. making tea can be just as important, healing and revitalizing as WHAT is done. This is a great reminder that we are at the base of ourselves creators, so why not enjoy the process as much as the end result :)

[@roundcorner7858]

I had found this awesome video way back in the beginning & decided to revisit. So glad it's still available. THANK YOU for posting. It's one of the only Tea Ceremony vids that has everything line up...the Sun, the solitude, the patience..the SOUND is everything! How sad that comments on here are so ignorant of an ancient ritual. Even tho this is filmed in CO, these Japanese arts are dying out...absorb some beautiful healing culture before it's gone.

[@Esthamarelda]

I love the show of the elements and the power they give to the ceremony. The wind prayer was beautiful and I love the water blessing on both the cup and the earthen pot at the end. What a wonderful artist. Thank you for sharing this ancient skill. May I one day know such calm grace over a cup of tea! xxxooo

[@Samurai-Inferno]

I know right??!!

I never realized the tea ceremony has its own kind of music emanating from the process itself. Reminds me of the noises of cooking at my grandmothers house. My eyes are closing and my soul feels rested...

[@prairieflower427]

[@willgeek]

What a beautiful posting, on so very many levels. Thank you, lovely to see this in Colorado as well!

I can't believe I found this incredibly filmed ceremony 6 yrs ago and it still moves me! Great notes: several camera angles :Beautiful sunlight pouring in : Fantastic SOUND (which really makes the while experience!) :Love the non-verbal :Inspire me to go to Japan to see ceremony in Kyoto, etc... Culture is meant to be shared, we're all connected on our small planet!

[@TheDollarCasual]

Beautiful ceremony... every little thing is accomplished with such artful deliberateness, shows a lot of respect for a little cup of tea.

[@Samurai-Inferno]

I know right??!!

This is the closest you can get to a real tea ceremony without actually being there. Well done.

[@Purrf3ctP3ach]

[@catland07]

Mesmerised... she is an artist.

[@cynthiahawkins2389]

This is so wonderfully soothing, just everything a tea ceremony should be. A time for quiet reflection, coming into inner harmony with oneself. Except for the water pouring, the snapping of the napkin, and the tapping of the bamboo utensil..there is very little sound. Of course that is intentional...

[@mindwarp12]

It is very much so. I get so relaxed watching the movements.

[@joymarisato11]

I am sorry to view some of the Korean people's comments - I studied in Korea in the 70's and was amazed by the culture and people. I was received with peace there. I study, teach and practice Tea because of my heritage and my parents. It isn't about me, it's abut peace towards others, and a hope for world peace. I incorporate into my Ceremony many cultures. I respect all cultures.

[@partisan72]

Something so trivial as pouring hot water over green tea leafs had become the highest act of art.Through the ceremony and tea pottery like Raku and Hagi it beautifully echoes the Japanese wabi-sabi philosophy of imperfect,impermanent and incomplete nature of our lives.lt teaches and reminds me to see the value and importance in things that would have otherwise passed by me unnoticed and taken for granted.
