Summary

[edit]
Description

"Yousai, the founder of Kennin-ji, was ordained at age fourteen and entered the major monastic center on Mt. Hiei to study under the Tendai tradition. He made the voyage to China twice during his lifetime, the first time to pursue Tendai studies and the second time with an intention to reach India. His voyage to India was unrealized because of unstable conditions in Central Asia at the time; however, he was able to come into contact with the Zen sect, which was at its height in China. The Zen Priest Yousai brought tea seeds back from China, and popularized the practice of drinking green tea. He is recognized as the founder of the tea ceremony because of his efforts to encourage the cultivation and consumption of tea."
