Reading
The mind of tea — and that mind is the flower.
The quiet attention brought to a single bowl opens of itself.
Not technique, not ornament: a settled heart, taking visible form.
The flower is not added from outside; it rises from within.
Origin
No source in a specific Zen collection or sutra could be confirmed. The phrase reads as a composition drawing on the chanoyu sense of "the heart of tea."
Seal
Cut by hand in Tokyo by the artist. The angle of the blade and the depth of the stroke decide where the ink bleeds and where it holds. No imprint repeats.
