◎【Tea utensils/tea ceremony tools colored paper】Handwritten Spring Colors Without Takage or Yamabana Saki Wild Birds by Kobori Yoshimi

●Spring colors are all around...The light of spring pours down without discrimination, and everything you look at is filled with the atmosphere of spring. It expresses the psychology of the mixture of equality and discrimination.
●Sankawarai yachokataru (The words of wild birds, blooming in the mountains)...This is read in a righteous way, with the character for "bloom" pronounced aloud as "warai" (laughing), and yachokataru (talking), expressing the sounds of the birds singing.
This is a Zen phrase that is appropriate for the months of April and May.
The message is that we should feel the wonder of life as everything sprouts, senses its vitality, and its reality becomes visible.

[Horinji Temple]
Kyoto, Murasakino, belongs to the Daitokuji branch of the Rinzai sect
Horin-ji Temple's mountain name, Sokei-san, is said to be the successor to Bodhidharma, the founder of Zen Buddhism. Since the 6th Zen master, Huineng, came to this place and explained the Buddhist teachings, the Zen sect has flourished here.
The temple's founder, Zen Master Shunrei Shoon (the 204th successor to Daito Kokushi), came to Kameoka during the Kanbun era and founded the temple, which was named Sokei-san Horin-ji Temple.
Within the mountain are the three Buddha statues of Yakushi, Amida, and Shaka, which are Important Cultural Properties (formerly National Treasures), as well as a nine-story stone stupa.
