The Japanese Tea Ceremony - Shin and So

In avarkan circles, you write of fundamental japanese aesthetics of shin and so. Could you share a bit about these concepts to the listeners? Sure. The whole point of this is that if you take a person and you shout at them, play music at them, flash visual images at them, that way, their sensory apparatus will shut down. If you do the reverse, if you slip them in through a small door into a dark room with nothing in it but the sound of boiling water, because of the pausity of sensory input, your senses open and you reach out for better things.
