The Book of Tea


Overview

The Book of Tea by Okakura Kakuzō is a reflective essay that uses the Japanese tea ceremony to explain East Asian philosophy and aesthetics. Okakura contrasts Eastern values-simplicity, harmony with nature, imperfection, and spiritual depth-with Western materialism and rationalism. Through discussions of art, architecture, Zen Buddhism, and daily life, he presents tea as a way of life rather than a drink, emphasizing mindfulness, humility, and the beauty of the ordinary. The book ultimately argues for cultural understanding and respect between East and West through shared appreciation of beauty and harmony.
