You will learn many things about tea as you
read this article. One of the things you will learn is that there are several
ways to buy Chinese tea. You can buy tea from a tea shop (there are shops all
over the country these days); you can purchase tea over
the Internet; and you can buy tea in
grocery stores, convenience stores, and even
pharmacies.
That’s not to mention every place you can
get tea already brewed for you. Every dining establishment, from a five-star
restaurant to a roadside diner and even the ubiquitous coffee shop, serves tea,
both hot and cold. When you are buying Chinese tea to brew at home, you can get
it in two forms: loose leaf tea or tea bags.
You are probably most familiar with tea
bags. This is known as commercial grade tea, and it is made of dust and
fannings, the by products of the tea-making process. Dust is the tiniest particles
of tea, and fannings are broken tea leaves one grade larger than dust. Here’s
the first thing you need to know about tea bags: You get the same health and
weight-loss benefits from tea whether you brew it from dried loose tea leaves
or from a paper tea bag, as long as it is white, green, Oolong Tea
, or black tea. The second thing you need
to know is that a paper tea bag is meant to be used only once (you will
understand why that is important as you read on in this chapter). The flavor
you get from a tea bag may not be as rich as the flavor from loose leaf teas,
but the only way you will know which you like best is to do a taste test.
Loose leaf tea is just what it sounds like:
tea that comes not in a bag, but as
full or cut tea leaves. These are leaves
and buds that are harvested and processed
as explained above, and usually sold by
weight. Because you are getting
more surface area from loose tea than you
get from dust and fannings, you

is a very calming and healing gemstone that improves motivation, enhances
memory, and purifies the blood. Jade is a symbol of purity and serenity, much
revered in the East. It resonates with the Heart Chakra, and integrates the
mental with the physical aspects of the body. It encourages you to become who
you really are, and accept yourself as a soul on a spiritual journey.Choose

Legend tells that that the Buddhist Artwas created in
Pataliputra, India,
which is now the city of Patna in 43 BCE by Nagasena. Other great
historians
beleive that it belongs to the Chiang Saen Style of the 15th century.
The
legend says that, it remained in Pataliputra for 300 hundred years,
until it
was taken to Sri Lanka to save it from a civil war. It was then in 457,
that
King Anuruth of Burma sent out orders to Ceylon to ask for the Emerald
Budha
and Buddhist scriptures. These actions took place by the king, to try
and
support Buddhism in his country. This request was granted, however the
ship
that was brining the Buddha to Burma, became lost in a storm and ended
up in
Cambodia. The Buddha made it's way through several hands after that:
Ayutthaya,
Kamphaeng Phet, Lao and finally Chiang Rai. It was finally in Chiang Rai
that
the ruler of the city hid it.
It wasn't until 1434 that
sources indicate
the resurfacing of the statue in Northern Thailand. There is one story
about
the discovery: "lightning struck a pagoda in a temple in Chiang Rai,
after
which something became visible under the stucco. The Emerald Buddha was
dug out
and the people thought the figurine was made from emerald, hence its
current
name.
"Although, the Buddha is just a
simple
jade statue, it is dressed with garments that are made of fine gold. The
Buddha's clothing are changed by the King of Thailand, to celebrate the
chaning
of seasons. This occurs three times a year: 1st Waning of Lunar Month
