Meditation Tea Ceremony:

Tea drinking has a long-standing relationship with the Buddhist tradition. Masters in the Chan Buddhist School had a high regard for tea drinking.Legend has it that a Chan master from the Lingyuan Temple in Taishan mountains practised meditation for days without eating or sleeping, drinking only tea at intervals. In the Tea ceremony led by Fo Guang Shan practitioners, participants will be guided through a brief meditation before tasting the tea brewed specially for you. While you appreciate the tea, you will be treated to Dunhuang dance and qin zither music of ethereal beauty.
