The differences between furo and ro in this temae are almost identical to the differences between Shin no Gyo furo and ro, which is to say that shin temae are consistent when switching between seasons.
Tie the shifuku in Katatombo (the reversible one).
Fold right over left, so the opening is on the left. Give to R, then place on the right front of the tenita (next to the kobukusa).
Turn with tray to imai.
Take kensui and futaoki from daisu.
Turn back to daisu shomen.
Remove kensui from jiita with 2h, placing down with L to the “usual” hakobi ro position (hangata, 5 mei from the wall).
Take futaoki with R, place on L palm, then turn back to imai.
Place futaoki in the usual position for ro hirademae.
Add hot water and kosusugi.
Remember, “shin ni sou ari” is only when closing. Opening is always betsu-betsu in shin.
Taking fukusa from obi, fold into sou-sabaki.
Kobiki the kama lid and open. Fukusa to R knee karioki.
From suzuki: fukusa karioki position cannot be higher than the halfway point of the ro. So it will end up below your right knee (despite our usual mnemonic that karioki is beyond and right of the right knee).
Take the hishaku.
From imai, put 2h down, then bring forward the shakutate with R.
It will be in this position for the rest of temae.
Positioning-wise, the hishaku shouldn’t cross the plane of the tenita.
Pull-pull the hishaku, then kagamibishaku.
Add a half-scoop of hot water to the bowl. Place hishaku into kama tome-oki.
Kosusugi, empty holding 2h primarily with L, catch the drip with ring finger.
Add more hot water. Close kama and return hishaku to shakutate (shin ni sou ari).
Tori-oki, take hishaku as if taking cold water (always true for this temae). Half scoop of hot water into bowl.
While still holding hishaku, close kama lid with fukusa. Return hishaku to shakutate push-push.
Add chasen to oyu, let it soak while purifying dai.
Purify dai
Sanpo sabaki, then wipe dai like usual from Daitenmoku.
Return kobukusa to ten-ita.
Chasentoshi and wipe bowl.
From the bon, do chasentoshi as usual for Daitenmoku.
Place chasen directly above the senzara, then while your hand is there, take the chakin.
Pinching chakin against the side of the bowl as in Shin no Gyo, empty into kensui.
I always have issues feeling cramped against the chashaku in this position. The best way to solve that is to hold the chakin more deeply, crushing the fukudame. It helps avoid the chashaku.
Wipe bowl, then tatami-kae and return chakin to senzara.
suzuki The Shin Chakin should only be folded in thirds when on the senzara. So when wiping the chawan, ignore the creases and fold in half / quarters just like you do in hirademae.
Then, when doing tatami-kae, go back to thirds.
Making tea
Scoop tea
Momite, then take karamono. Lid goes where the chaire was sitting.
Scoop tea, then leave chashaku in the bowl otoshi-komi. Close chaire.
Zig-zag, then 2x tap on finger.
Clean chashaku
While still holding chashaku nigiriconde, take kobukusa with R, then sanpo sabaki.
No need to keep the chashaku behind the kobukusa or anything. It’s too small.
Wipe 3x, then push-pull-pull.
3h rehold chashaku, then place down pinching from sides.
[?] TODO Do you pinch from sides or pinch from top when putting on daienbon? It’s certainly big enough to do either ➕ 2025-02-09
Pom-pom kobukusa, then open and return to ten-ita.
Add hot water.
Kobiki and open lid. Fukusa goes left when done, not back to karioki.
Take hishaku pull-pull, then suishaku (2x back to back water scoops).
Knead.
Chawan onto dai → turn to kyakutsuki → hidari-mawari in the air → chawan to kantsuki.
POINTO: This is different from Daien no Sou, where you turn with the dai first, then place the chawan on the dai at kyakutsuki.
Shittai 2x, then hikae.
Kyaku takes a sip → Ofukukagen wa?
Close shop
Scoot back forward, then turn to imai.
Shin ni sou ari, close kama lid and return hishaku.
Take futaoki, turn to daisu shomen, then return to its original position on the jiita.
Turn back to kyakutsuki, no longer in hikae. Talk talk.
Kyaku ask questions → suikiri.
Open shop
Turn to daisu shomen, bringing futaoki back to imai.
Kobiki and open kama lid.
Hishaku back into kama.
(Don’t open the mizusashi yet! This happens “just in time”, when you need it later.)
Shimai
Bring chawan back to imai from kyakutsuki, sorei.
Answer questions about the bowl and dai here.
Oyu → kosusugi → ichiyo oshimai itashimasu.
[?] TODO Need to check, but is this emptying with R, or emptying with L? ➕ 2025-02-09
From Okeiko-Glenn-2025-02-09, he thinks it’s still R hand to empty, despite being on the floor.
Add cold water, chasentoshi, and wipe bowl.
After ichiyo oshimai, immediately open the mizusashi lid (1h in shin style).
Add half scoop of cold water. Do chasentoshi as usual for daitenmoku.
Like at the opening, return the chasen to its spot above the senzara, then take the chakin while there. Pinch the side of the bowl with the chakin → empty → wipe → tatami-kae.
Return the chakin to the senzara, then while you’re there, also return the chasen.
Turn back to daisu shomen and put chawan back into shifuku.
Turn back with bon, then yubi-kiri 3x.
Open shifuku in L hand, tying cord around L pinky, then place bowl back into shifuku.
To open the shifuku nicely, put R hand inside, then once hidden inside, open your fingers out and expand. Close fingers before retracting R hand.
After placing bowl in the chawan, be sure to pull up the sides of the shifuku L → R before placing down.
Place back onto bon, then tie as in nagao / chabako.
Return chawan back to dai.
Move chaire and chashaku to center of bon.
Momite, then move chaire to dead-on center of bon.
On the smaller bon, I have troubles with this due to the position of the chashaku. It ends up going more to the left than bang-on center.
Then 3h move chashaku to R of chaire.
Return bon to ten-ita, push-push.
Turn back to imai, and close shin ni sou ari.
Haiken
[?] TODO Do you ask just bonchuu, or bonchuu and shifuku? ➕ 2025-02-09
Douzo o-bon-chuu, o-shifuku no haiken wo.
Return futaoki to its original position on the jiita.
Bring the bon down to the floor (pull-pull), then immediately put the chashaku back up to the ten-ita 3h.
Purify chaire.
Sanpo sabaki, then purify as in the beginning of temae.
Once done, place chaire and kobukusa back onto ten-ita as before.
