[Tea utensils/tea ceremony tools, short poems with inscriptions] Kunpu (a picture of a rice dumpling) or Kunpu Jinanrai (a picture of an iris) or Chijinyu (a picture of a helmet) by Nishigaki Daido

● The fragrant wind comes from the south (Kunpu ji nanrai, Kunpu minami yori kitaru)…The refreshing wind of early summer blows in from the south. Fragrant May. The southern wind carrying the scent of fresh greenery is likened to a refreshing state of enlightenment, free from attachments and grudges.
A fragrant breeze blew in from the south, making the palace a cool and comfortable space. Su Dongpo added, "Only when the world is a comfortable place to live for all the people can he be the Son of Heaven."
● Wisdom, benevolence, and courage (chijinyuu)...wisdom is the will to know what is right; benevolence is the compassionate heart that allows one to understand the other person and consider things from their perspective; and courage is the courage to charge forward. The way of the sword is a harmonious combination of wisdom, benevolence, and courage.
