i-tea

16/07/2025 by A learning buddhist...

Got a cup of bubble tea in the evening. The tea cup they gave me was different from others. I was delighted as the cup was tastefully designed.

So “i-tea” in chinese is call “爱茶”! It’s not “love-tea”, it’s “i-tea”! Not “我茶”, 是”爱茶”!:)

The printed scenery on the cup is nice. Very chinese! I don’t understand the chinese characters that was printed on the cup, but the 爱茶人 means tea lover. Why 一碗 and not 一杯?

This is the back of the cup.

The colours are nice. I think the cup is saying “admiring the mountain while drinking tea”. It uses the sky, smoke, spring water, fire, stone, clear water to describe the ambience. A native chinese would explain better. I am no where near. However, the red mark at the right bottom says “want it fresh, have i-tea”!

I am an art person, beautiful pictures often capture my eyes. Pleasure? Delighted! I am throwing it away. It’s just a paper cup!

  • I highly recommend reading the sutta translated by Piya Tan. His "Laymen Saints" has been an inspiration to many lay people.
