Daitenmoku → Actually did this
- Everything is basically the same as in furo
- Karamono no ichi - you still do this (only for the haiken part though). Everything else is at regular kyakutsuki.
- In general for shikaden, you do haiken at karamono no ichi
- At the very end when you swap bowl for chaire, you do that at mizusashi no shomen.
- Don’t forget, bowl needs to go out to kantsuki.
Daien no Sou → Kengaku
Dougu:
- Daien bon - this looks like a hakke bon, but a little (smaller?)
- Zouge chashaku
- Karamono chaire
- Wamono chaire (high-ranking, perhaps even chuko meibutsu?)
- Seto hitoeguchi mizusashi
- Tenmokujawan and shinnuri dai
- Aodake futaoki
- Efugo kensui
Mnemonic: yon-ichi-rei-san (for chashaku cleaning)
Gyo-no-gyo question answered: flipping fukusa, first you take top, then you take bottom for the chashaku (ie top for the main, bottom for the +1). Then it’s upside down for a little while, and when you take it next to do shin sabaki, you take from the bottom to fix it.
Then, when you’re cleaning for the second time, recall that you do not pom-pom. So you take off your belt, and you want to get the majority of the tea on the INSIDE where it’s not visible. So, from koshi, you take the BOTTOM. It’ll be inverse for the first +3. Then, for the final +1, you refold from the BOTTOM, making it end up right-side out. So in total, TOP-BOTTOM-BOTTOM-BOTTOM.
Setup:
- Mizusashi in its normal place (16mei from kinindatami heri)
- Kami ichimai from mizusashi shomen, place bon
- On the bon:
- Upper right: karamono chaire
- Upper left: wamono chaire
- Bottom center: chawan on dai (with usual things in/on the chawan)
Entering:
- Start with the FUTAOKI AND HISHAKU ON THE FLOOR.
- Hishaku go is on futaoki horizontally across your knee line.
- Q: Can’t remember, is it kensui close to you, or is it hishaku close to you?
- Hold hishaku/futaoki as you would when you’re normally leaving.
- Close door behind you, placing hishaku/futaoki on the ground as usually would when leaving (ie futaoki on tatami, hishaku on kensui)
- Sit at imai low, then shikko forward, placing the kensui forward as you would when sitting shittai.
- Still holding the futaoki, pull the hishaku out with L, then kamae while still holding futaoki.
- Place futaoki, then hishaku, down in its usual spot.
- Sorei
Kiyome:
- Turn back to mizusashi shomen, and pick up the tray, bringing it to imai.
- Q: Do you scoot the tray forward once before turning with it?
- Remove the dai + chawan combo and place to himado mae.
- Q: Does this happen now?
- Starting with karamono, begin kiyome.
- Generally, take karamono with R (and atsukai with L), and take wamono with L (and atsukai with R)
- Take karamono with R (atsukai with L), and kiyome as usual.
- When removing the shifuku, DO NOT FLIP it. Instead, immediately place it on the tatami (not the bon), and to the right of the bon.
- Take wamono with L (atsukai with R), and kiyome as usual.
- “as usual” == mukou/temae, sou yoho-sabaki
- When shifuku comes off, this one DOES flip hi-no-ho (?), also going to the side of the bon.
- For both of the above, when done, chaire sits onto its respective shifuku.
- Once both chaire are kiyome’d, kiyome bon.
- Q: Refold into… sou-sabaki? Shin-sabaki? Can’t remember
- Wipe the bon as in ku-tsu-ri-i. This is a loose stroke order for an old style of writing en.
- Next, return the chaire back to their homes on the bon, still following L/R ordering.
- Note: Now you also momide for the karamono.
- Pick up both shifuku AT THE SAME TIME, put them together in the air over the center of the bon (ie how your hands are when praying, both together and vertical), then turn together mizu-no-hou (???), then place to kattetsuki as usual with one hand.
- (?) Next, while you’re over there, take JUST THE CHAWAN (leaving the dai) and place it on the bon.
- Kiyome chashaku (yon). Just the usual 3 + 1 modoshibuki, refolding in the middle.
- Note: No flipping upside down.
- Chashaku goes down in the usual place for bon (?)
- Chasen comes out
- Q: This goes to the hishaku position right? Not kensui no migi kata?
- Wipe nuributa, chakin goes on lid.
- Kiyome chawan as usual
- Half-scoop of water, still supporting with L, and kosusugi.
- Empty, catch the drip with ring finger, place back down.
- Add more water, and place chasen
- Leaving the chawan in place (?), shin-sabaki and kiyome the dai (also leaving the dai in-place)
- Chasentoshi… I think this is leaving the chawan on the bon?
- Q: 2x up, or 3x up?
- Chasen done, goes back to its home (where exactly?)
- Chawan is emptied, catch drip and wipe with chakin, then tatami-kae when done and return to mizusashi lid
Making tea (karamono):
- Momide and take karamono, placing lid back in the karamono spot. Scoop tea as usual.
- After the last scoop, LEAVE THE CHASHAKU IN THE BOWL. It’s inside like a cereal spoon at ~3 o’clock.
- Rehold, then tap chashaku on your finger.
- Q: Clayton did a 2x tap, do you 1x or 2x? of course, depends on the amount of tea, but in general?
- Next, reclean the chashaku (ichi). Fold into sou-sabaki, and wipe just once.
- Add water, make tea as usual.
- After you place the chasen to kensui no kata on completion, while you’re there, take the dai and turn to kyakutsuki, placing down heri-uchi.
- Still at kyakutsuki, take the bowl and place on the dai. Turn, and place out to kantsuki.
- Shittai
- Kyaku takes bowl, ofukukagen, then you turn and nakajimai, turning back to answer questions.
- Remember, there are two different teas, so you have conversation two different times.
- Suikiri, turn back and re-open. However! You open the mizusashi lid, but you do not add water!
Making tea (wamono):
- Kyaku returns chawan to kantsuki. You turn to kyakutsuki and place the combo heriuchi.
- While still kyakutsuki, chawan goes onto bon. Then, take bon and turn to imai, placing the dai back in its home at kattetsuki.
- Sorei (?)
- Add water to the bowl, then sara-sara again.
- Q: Sara-sara, kotsu, then immediately no-no-ji?
- Chasen goes back to… kensui-no-kata?
- Empty the bowl, then use chakin to wipe and place back down.
- Do not tatami-kae. You’re currently on the inside; stay on the inside for this and the next wipe, so that the second tatami-kae returns the tea to the inside.
- Scoop tea from wamono (sukuidashi) and make tea (iirc leaving the chashaku in the bowl again?)
- Do not wipe the chashaku (rei).
- Q: Instead, you do something else, right?
- Do the same to serve the bowl as before, ie after chasen is done, take the dai, turn, place the bowl on the dai, then place the combo out. Also shittai, ofukukagen, etc.
- Q: I think there might be an abbreviation here? Do you answer questions from imai?
- Turn back, and NOW add mizu.
Shimai:
- Bring the bowl back as above, sorei
- Add oyu, kosusugi, empty, ichiyo oshimai.
- Add mizu, sara sara, empty, wipe with chakin, and tatami-kae.
- Chasen goes back into bowl
- Finally, wipe chashaku for the last time (san)
- Take chashaku, pull back kensui, take fukusa (?)
- Snap the fukusa
- Sou-sabaki, then wipe 3x, placing back on top of the bowl.
- Note: the snap replaces the 3 from the 3+1 earlier, and now you only do the 1
- Pom-pom over kensui (I think), and koshi
- Chawan goes back onto dai, dai onto bon, then take bon and turn back and place to mizusashi shomen
- Turn back to imai, and add mizu. Close close.
- OH SHIT BIG THING I FORGOT. WHEN OPENING THE MIZUSASHI LID, 3H AS USUAL, EXCEPT IT GOES ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE MIZUSASHI!
- THIS IS GYO POSITION, EXCEPT BECAUSE OF THE SIZE OF THE BON, YOU HAVE TO PUT IT RIGHT AT THREE O CLOCK
Haiken:
- Kyaku asks for haiken (“O bon chuu, o shifuku no haiken wo”)
- Hishaku to kensui, take futaoki and turn to kyakutsuki, placing under hishaku fushi
- Chawan and dai to katte
- Take bon, and turn all the way to outside the ro, placing the bon heri-soto (?)
- Kiyome karamono first as usual and return to its home on the right.
- Same for wamono, on the left.
- Turn back to kattetsuki, take chashaku, turn back to ro no soto, place chashaku bang in the center at 6 oclock, hanging out
- Turn back to imai, take 2x shifuku with L, turn to bon
- … I don’t remember this at all, I think I’m making shit up.
- Somehow, the bon also needs to be wiped
- Anyway then you leave by backing out the whole time, shittai/shikko’ing.
