●Respect (敬 or KEI)
Bowing implies the image of the feudal society, but bowing each other and praying are the spirits of Buddhism.

●Purity (清 or SEI)
Purity means to say a super purity without the shadow of a possibility of obscurity or neatness. Rikyu was brought up to be a person as a person scattering the leaves on a cleanly and neatly swept garden located in front of a tea ceremony event by shaking a small branch of tree. The neatness of scattered leaves add a nice taste of more purity.

●Tranquility (寂 or JYAKU)
The quietness, self-possessed peaceful mind, dead silent, simple and tranquil and Nirvana are the ultimate goal of the Daijo-zen school of Buddhism.
