Basics of Japanese Tea Garden
The Tea Garden also was introduced to Japan from the Chinese culture around the sixth century A.D. Because the Buddhism religion incorporated the use of tea in their ceremonies, did it not become popular until the thirteenth century. It is still unclear, but the generally accepted theory is that the tea ceremony celebrated the Zen beliefs of purity, inner peace, and simplicity through meditation.
A Japanese tea garden consists of two gardens, one that includes a waiting area where the guests will be called into the more formal, intimate, yet rustic structured inner garden. The outer design of the tea garden usually includes stepping stones leading to a cleansing area. Here the guests will perform a symbolic cleansing ritual, freeing themselves of all wrong doings, evil thoughts, and misfortunes of life. The outer garden will provide an atmosphere of preparation, which includes the stepping stones, a lantern, and cleansing area in a very simplistic setting all designed to prepare for the tea ceremony inside.
The inner tea garden is designed very simplistic and in a rustic, hut style structure. The atmosphere will be friendly and intimate. Here is where the tea ceremony is held. All is symbolic of the Buddhism belief of meditation and appreciation of the simplistic life cycle. The Japanese tea garden represents the virtues of Restraint, Politeness, Sensibility, and Modesty.
To summarize, a Japanese tea garden is much more that a garden of Japanese elements. It is much more than an accumulation of trees, rocks, water, and plants. It is a Garden of Respect for a people’s culture and religious beliefs that extend not only through centuries of the Japanese people, but through centuries of the Chinese people from which so much influence was introduced.

What is your definition of ceremony? (any religion or spiritual path free to answer)?
Here is what dictionary defines it as. Just gathering information and other points of view. People that feel the need to state their way as the only way will be ignored. Just share your thought about the question with me. Not your dogma.
1.A formal act or set of acts performed as prescribed by ritual or custom: a wedding ceremony; the Japanese tea ceremony.
2.A conventional social gesture or act of courtesy: the ceremony of shaking hands when introduced.
3.A formal act without intrinsic purpose; an empty form: ignored the ceremony of asking for comments from other committee members.
4.Strict observance of formalities or etiquette: The head of state was welcomed with full ceremony.
For me, a ceremony is an event where a person chooses to honor a specific moment in time by performing certain acts in a respectful manner and with complete awareness of what they are doing. We humans have the ability to turn the mundane into the divine just by creating ceremony around it.
