无我茶会 Sans Self Tea Gathering （中英文版）

内容介绍

《无我茶会》是当代茶道研究工作方向的新一章，此书直接跳过一些仍然产生困扰的课题如：何谓茶道何谓茶艺？泡茶者的身份应命名为事茶或司茶？已经掌握一定茶道学识、拥有实践及专门从事茶道活动的工作者该被称为茶人好呢还是被称为大师好呢……。此书作者蔡荣章先生率直的通过拥有完整系统的一个茶会作品，引领读者一步一步走入其茶会作品的茶道艺术内涵，将泡茶者（亦即此书作者）因茶会作品的创作升华成为茶道艺术家。

茶道艺术家、茶会作品二词之用，是蔡荣章先生的先见与期许，它让大众更加清晰知道，茶、茶道、茶道艺术的本质在哪里，让茶道艺术家理解自己应具备怎样的素养及该努力的方向，以及如何创作茶会作品。

《无我茶会》是以蔡荣章先生最初创办无我茶会的操作手册及《无我茶会180条》一书为蓝本，再加入蔡荣章先生经过二十五年实践无我茶会实实在在的功力，以乾净清晰笔触书写无我茶会核心价值的最新力作。

"Sans Self Tea Gathering" is, literally, a new chapter in the research of the Way of Tea.

It bypasses perplexing questions such as ‘What is the Way of Tea? And what is Tea Art?’, ‘Should tea brewing personnel be described as a server or a master of tea?’, or should they be referred to as ‘tea experts’ or ‘tea gurus’ if they are professionals with a rich knowledge of the Way of Tea that they, use in various activities?’ Instead, the author cuts through these conundrums and presents a complete and comprehensive

system -- his very own work of tea gathering -- that leads readers right into the inner substance. This artistic manifestation in the form of tea gathering raises the status of a tea brewing personnel (in this case, the author himself) to that of an artist of the Way of Tea.

An artist of the Way of Tea, or tea artist, is a term impregnated with the author’s insight and aspiration. It seeks to clarify what is the essence of tea, the Way of Tea and the art of it; and in turn, to better equip tea artists with the qualities and effortsrequired of them.

Born in 1948, Tsai, Rong-Tsang joined the tea fraternity in 1978. Beginning with general learning, then in-depth studying to joining the tea circle, Tsai was neither influenced by his education nor family background; but rather by his desire to ‘enrich people’s life’. To him, the revival of tea culture is a process that may be founded only upon careful thinking, discussion and planning. This way, the current situation and future direction can be established, and development can be built on existing foundations.

Tsai, Rong-Tsang has since devised a system related to the Way of Tea. It covers tea ware, tea-presentation settings, methodology, tea studies, the tea industry, the tea personnel and tea gathering on the one hand; and the quintessential Way of Tea, tea and art, tea aesthetics and the substance of the Way of Tea on the other. These two dimensions are interwoven in as harmonious and meticulous a way as the warp and the weft of a grand tapestry. With carefully thought-out ideas and practices, he has ventured into three key areas of research, namely Tea and Art, Tea and the Tea Industry, and the Tea Artists and Tea Gathering. Tsai’s significant contribution has cemented his position as an influential thought leader during the contemporary revival of tea culture.
