Impossible words for a Tea master and mentor

After a hundred years we dared to dream that the day would somehow never come, but he, with the giving heart, piercing eyes, and warm embrace that shared Peacefulness through a Bowl of Tea around the world, has passed from this realm.

Thankfulness, Sincerity, Humility, Graciousness, Perseverance

For him, from him, and from us. Let us continue to share what he shared, teach what we were taught, and make the world a continuously better place for everyone.

One selfless joyful bowl at a time.

In honor of our dear Hounsai Daisosho, 102 years young, safe travels
