Tea Meditation

Tea meditation is a time to be with the Sangha in a joyful and serene atmosphere. Just to enjoy our tea together is enough. It is like a “good news” occasion when we share our joy and happiness in being together.

​

At times, when we are drinking tea with a friend, we are not aware of the tea or even of our friend sitting there. Practicing tea meditation is to be truly present with our tea and our friends. We recognize that we can dwell happily in the present moment despite all of our sorrows and worries. We sit there relaxed without having to say anything. If we like, we may also share a song, a story, or a dance.

​

You may like to bring a musical instrument or prepare something ahead of time. It is an opportunity for us to water the seeds of happiness and joy, of understanding and love in each one of us.

​

You can organise tea meditation as a treat for your family or friends to celebrate a special occasion such as a birthday or anniversary.

Stream Entering Monastery respectfully acknowledges the Dja Dja Wurrung people as the Traditional Owners and custodians of the land on which we practice. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognize their deep and continuing connection to the land and waters of this region.
