Idle tea and wine, taste life
Text/Beam Line
Chinese food culture is broad and profound, with a long history. When it comes to drinks, it must be represented by tea and wine, which are common in ordinary people's homes, and condense traditional culture, reflecting the two completely different styles of Chinese people. Tea and wine are unforgettable drinks for guests, and they are also cultural symbols in the long history of human development.
Only after careful brewing, the taste will become more mellow. Only when people experience darkness will they usher in the dawn of victory; only after tea is soaked in hot water, the tea fragrance will be fragrant. Only when people have experienced ups and downs will they create a calm state of mind. Tea and wine are not only drinks, but also an attitude to life, but also a realm of life.
"Tea hidden, wine man", tea is an elegant thing, permeated with calm, making people sober; wine is a passionate thing, permeated with arrogance, let people intoxicated. Idle to drink tea, there is leisure, elegant and happy, hidden light, light and then can be clear, clear and then can be quiet, quiet and then can be nourished, nourish the heart, nourish the mind, nourish the spirit, clean and quiet, get elegant. Drinking wine is like fire, chivalrous and heroic, lively and fun, just like watching flowers in front of the lamp, watching the xia in the boat, seeing beauty under the moon, and having fun. However, whether it is drinking tea or drinking, it is all leisurely.
Tea is like seclusion, wine is like a haoshi; wine is to make friends, and tea should be meditative. Drinking tea, drinking wine, drinking more than just the tea wine itself. Rather, it is a process of perception, a process of mutual acceptance and tolerance with all things in the world, including oneself.
Introspecting with tea, Mingzhi with tea, meeting friends with tea, treating guests with tea, and honoring ancestors with tea, tea has inadvertently become a treat for people in the country of etiquette. Since ancient times, there has been no wine and no table. Without wine, it is difficult to open up the situation between people and communicate with each other. With the strength of wine, people have more words and are easy to say. Tea and wine are thus quietly integrated into our spiritual realm. With the passage of time, tea and wine have gradually become the national drinks of the Chinese nation.
Tea tasting is to taste a pure, a beautiful lamp. Cultivating a normal heart, smiling at the prosperity of the world, and having a peaceful and comfortable heart is the happiest thing. Drinking alcohol has narrowed the strangeness and distance, the heat has become indifferent and distant, the expectations and dreams have been achieved, and the concepts and right and wrong have been confused. Choosing wine can "raise a glass and laugh at life"; choosing tea can "sweep the pot around the world"; of course, whether you choose tea or choose wine, you can't help but have a confidant!
If tea is a gentle woman, then the wine must be a mellow man. If you talk about tea, people will think of elegance, if you talk about wine, most people will only think of "chaotic sex". The ancients liked to drink wine, not just to get drunk to solve a thousand sorrows, and the mellowness it had experienced in the decades of fermentation was by no means what those who could understand the sorrows could understand. The aroma of tea is intoxicating, and the aroma of wine is also drunk to the bone. Today, wine has become a catalyst for people in Vanity Fair, and drinking it will pour you out! That's the ability, don't drink, and know no one! There are so few people who can appreciate wine, let alone confidants who cook wine and chant.
The tea is warm and peaceful, the wine is arrogant, and the life of the cup should be the most suitable for tea wine. If it is tea, the world in the cup, meditating on enlightenment, life is ups and downs, can precipitate the fragrance of life; if it is wine, the world in the cup, life is half awake and half drunk, you can also taste the joy of life, taste the mellow moisture of life.
There is a way to drink tea, light wine invites the bright moon, fragrant tea greets the deceased, or a lamp of tea, or a poem. Taste it, drink it slowly, look at society, and understand life. Food and wine, life is not worried, wine has become a part of praising life, tasting the taste of life in the wine, is a kind of elegant fun, but also a realm, in a clear spiritual world to taste the joy of life. For tea drinkers, the simpler and more flavorful, the cleaner and more sophisticated. For people who drink, it is the most lively and fun.
Leisure, will want to drink tea, in a quiet time, drink alone, but also enjoy it, sit quietly, relax, taste tea shape, taste bitterness, and know the fragrance, but also understand the sweetness and cold and warmth of life. Tired, you will want to drink, in the years of the multiplicity, with the shadow to drink, but also intoxicated, shallow taste, deep drunkenness, strong taste, light taste, and know the true temperament, but also understand that fame and fortune are a dream.
Life is like tasting tea, there is astringency and fragrance. A cup of tea is like a thousand worlds, and each tea leaf is just like all the sentient beings in the red dust. People come to this world in red stripes, in fact, no matter how they live, they must have meaning, they must have feelings, just depending on which angle you perceive and choose from.
Wine to the half-drunk is a good situation, the moon is half round is the most expected. Drinking alcohol should be slightly drunk, and half-drunk is better. Since ancient times, wine has brought too many spiritual and material things to human beings, and because of this, our lives are inseparable from wine.
Wine needs to be drunk, so that we can know the sour, sweet and bitter in the midst of success or failure; wine needs to be pleasant, so that we can know how to let go of life in an impetuous world. Tea can meditate, it is to use an ordinary heart to fade fame and fortune, it is the state of life of Ya, and it is the Zen language of the enlightened mind. Alcohol can be intoxicating, it is to anesthetize yourself with a sober heart, and it is a bond of temperament relaxation.
If life is a cup of tea, from thick to light, from chaos to clear, from hot and tormented to plain and clean, cool and light, sinking down to float up, the style of life lies in the tranquility, calm and elegance.
If life is a glass of wine, let people intoxicated, achieve spiritual enjoyment, but also forget the sorrow, there is also a short joy of liberation, sometimes sober, can see the self, sometimes illusory, but also can appreciate the enthusiasm of life.
Wine is the spice of life, and can only be drunk lightly and not drunk. Tea is a spiritual object of nature, suitable for quiet tasting rather than noisy. Drinking tea is the simplicity after the glitz, and the silence after the hilarity. After drinking tea, people often remain silent, appear calm and calm, and the true taste of life is also in this unspoken. Drinking just the right amount of alcohol gives me the courage to fight the whole world. Slight drunkenness is the wonderful realm of drinking, but it can be stopped. Otherwise, drunk as mud, there is no interesting realm to speak of, let alone enjoy the fun.
The wise man is like tea, seeing through the hustle and bustle of the world, indifferent to fame and fortune, the state of mind is lonely, detached and transparent; the rich are like wine, experiencing all the deceit in the world, expressing emotions, surging and rarely confused. How much helplessness in the world, fortunately accompanied by tea and wine, feel life, temporarily relieve worries. It is called: three cups of wine in the red dust of Wanzhang, and a pot of tea in the great cause of a thousand autumns.
The best and warmest memories of life are often interesting things in some leisure time: when watching the clouds rise in the morning, watching the moon and half a wheel in the twilight, I like to walk under the breeze and the moon, enjoying the warmth of the lights, sitting around the stove, idle tea and wine, and the aroma of books and tea. Life, half fireworks, half poetry, making a living with fireworks, and xu Qinghuan with poetry.
Tea wine is two aspects of life, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, but also complement each other, clear tea, fine wine is not only the respect for hospitality, but also the way of tasting people, the state of taste. Tea needs to be carefully tasted, so that only in the ups and downs can it be quiet, and tea needs to be slowly drunk, so that it is known that only precipitation in a long life has the fragrance of life. Life in the world, if you can taste tea alcohol, aromatherapy, drinking incense, then it is not worthless to come to life, taste life, enjoy the details of life, and become a person who knows how to enjoy life.
Tea, a light thing, tastes its original taste and tastes the ups and downs of life. Wine to the half-drunk is a good situation, the moon is half round is the most expected. Drinking should be moderate, not passed, and slightly drunk. In this way, it can maintain the joy of life and enjoy the body and mind, but also not harm the body and affect health. Only in this way will the traditional tea and wine culture be carried forward and inherited, and it will also be more conducive to people's longevity.
Poetry wine tea, take advantage of the Chinese year, perhaps, the most deserving is time. Life, idle and not lazy, restraint and self-discipline, pleasing oneself, enriching oneself, leisurely and leisurely, is the essence of leisure. Tea is rare to be sober, wine is rare to be confused. Whether it is idle tea or fun wine, it is a life of good taste, that is, a good life, a life of taste, the sun and the moon in the tea, and the wine in the big. A wine, a tea, a confidant; a pleasure, a fun, a secluded residence, life is like this, what do you want?
