A single bowl of tea can build bridges across cultures and generations—just ask anyone at UH Mānoa who’s experienced the legacy of Daisōshō Genshitsu Sen. For over 70 years, Sen brought the Japanese Way of Tea to Hawaiʻi, teaching not just tradition but a philosophy of peace. His gift of the Jakuʻan tea house and scholarships sent students to Kyoto, creating lifelong connections. Even at 100, Sen inspired with his energy and humility. What do you think makes a cultural tradition truly last in a community? #Education #Hawaii #TeaCulture
