The Ru porcelain ox tea figure is an elegant figurine for the tea ceremony, made of very fine Chinese porcelain in a light blue color. Ru porcelain is a material used in the Chinese tradition to create beautiful tea accessories; it is distinctive and characteristic. If you have ever seen the Chinese tea ceremony Gongfu Cha in China, you probably noticed that almost all tea trays (Cheban) have a clay figurine, “茶宠” (tea pet). It is a small work of art in Yixing clay, which is constantly wetted during the tea ceremony as an auspicious sign of good luck and fortune. In China, tea figurines are revered on par with household pets, even though they are basically small objects made to decorate the tea tray. In some Chinese families, the dragon figurine may signify the energy of heaven and symbolize a connection with the Tao god, and in another family it may be a talisman given by a deceased grandfather, remembering him and granting the family his wisdom. Tea figurines are therefore always present and have very specific meanings. “Nourish” (wet) your tea pet. You can wet your tea figurine with the hot water you used to warm the tea utensils before drinking, or you can use the water with which you washed the tea leaves at the beginning of the ceremony. Over time, the figurine will absorb the aroma and smell of the tea, and a color difference will be noticeable in the clay. There are many different tea pets, and they can also be small, medium or very large. They are generally very simple, but with a sophisticated design. They can be animals, people, beetles or even mythical creatures. Use Chinese tea figurines in meditation. Some scientists have shown that by concentrating attention on an object and relaxing, the human brain begins to work at a different frequency, similar in vibration to the frequency of the brains of monks and saints. In this state of consciousness, a person starts from a stereotyped thought and has the opportunity to tune in to the waves needed to obtain an answer to a long-standing question of interest. This effect is called “help from above” or “advice from the ancestors”. During tea drinking, it is easier to reach this state, because tea relieves nervous and physical tension, and tea figurines help set and focus attention.
