The Ritual
The Ritual of Tea (Confucianism)Characters: FATHER and SON.Setting: A small table. The SON is rushing to pour tea, spilling it.SON: It’s just tea, Father. Why must we sit a certain way? Why the specific cups? It’s inefficient.FATHER: (Straightens the cup) Without the form, the spirit has no place to live.SON: It’s just a liquid!FATHER: A family is just a group of people, yet without respect, it is a mob. A state is just a crowd, yet without law, it is chaos.SON: (Slows down, mimicking his father’s posture) So the tea is… a lesson?FATHER: The ritual reminds us that we belong to each other. When you pour for me with care, you acknowledge I am your father. When I receive it with thanks, I acknowledge you are my son.SON: (Pours slowly, using two hands) To the ancestors.Father:to the future.
