Features: The philosophy of the Chinese people, the concept of Chinese moderation, and the traditional life of the Chinese people—just like a pot and tea, boiling on the stove, like a boat in a painting, walking in the ink. After drinking, only then can one taste the sweetness and bitterness and understand the depth. Tea art is not only the soul of folk culture but also a way to refresh the mind and cultivate character. If we use tea art to discuss the characteristics of the Chinese people, it is better to use it to discuss the spirit of the Chinese people, the friendship of the Chinese people, and the modest and harmonious behavior of the Chinese people. Therefore, tea art speaks of the secluded realm, appreciating tea to enhance one's refined interests, and sipping the essence to find joy. Through half a life of ups and downs, at middle age, I have not forgotten the beauty of the tea mother quenching my thirst in childhood, nor dared to forget this health-enhancing practice and the joy of life. Now, I write "Listening to Rain Pavilion Discussing Tea" to honor friends who respect the way and value art, and to present the tea environment.
