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

The original seal is hand-carved in Tokyo by the artist Satake Hōsen. Its impression is reproduced as a print on the garment.
