THE IMPORTANCE OF RITUALS IN OUR DAILY LIVES.
20 MAY 2010
Rituals have always been part of human social, religious and family life. Be it important rites of passage such as the transition from childhood to adulthood, weddings, funerals, baptism and the many other important rituals of religious life, the seasonal or annual festivities associated with moon cycles and other natural phenomenon, rituals are part of human existence in all societies.
Besides marking certain moments or times, they are also necessary to our personal well being. Be it Thai Chi, the preparation of tea, the spinning of prayer wheels, the singing of songs, prayers or the sharing of specific foods with loved ones as well as the deceased, many Asian societies have incredibly complex and rich rituals that are part of daily life for millions of people.
At Sushi Shop, we are fascinated with the many rituals associated with the art of sushi. We believe in the importance of rituals and would like to suggest some simple rituals that we should all take time to experience and appreciate on a regular basis. Sure, sushi can be at the centre of these great ideas and moments that are made to be shared with colleagues, friends and loved ones. We promise that you will feel great after these simple moments that can make life so special.
Business lunch in the park ritual /
This one is really simple. All you need is an ambassador who will be charged with picking-up sushi for the group. Then, it is as easy as finding a nice shady place in a park or on a terrace, opening a bottle of sake and reading the meeting agenda. We promise this will probably be the most effective and pleasant meeting you will have had in a long time. We suggest the lawn in front of the CCA. It’s a great spot for this. Then go buy a book on Japanese architecture in the CCA’s great bookstore.
Family dinner in the garden ritual /
Imagine a nice warm Wednesday evening. You are leaving work and have no inspiration for tonight’s dinner. The solution is to create a picnic in your own garden or yard with a platter of sushi at the centre of it all. Kids will love it especially if you hang and light a few lanterns. As the sun goes down, you will witness eyes lighting up and you will have the kind of great conversation with your family that only nature and time spent together in an unusual context can create. Lanterns not included but highly recommended.
Friday night romantic dinner for two ritual /
We must admit that sushi have a sensual side to them. They are unique mixtures of colour, texture and flavour that really stimulate the senses and, when prepared well, elevate the soul. They are also great with champagne. Light some candles, turn on your favourite Bill Evans album, look into your lovers eyes and say « I love you almost as much as I love this sushi ». Maybe you’ll want to come up with your own romantic declaration... You can do that right?
Conversation between friends ritual /
Your best friend is sending you way too many e-mails, posting too many intimate stories on your wall and tweeting you endlessly and you're asking yourself « how can I tell him/her to stop without ruining our friendship? ». It’s simple, add sushi to the mix and, suddenly, everything becomes easier to understand, less dramatic and constructive. If only the US and Soviet authorities had shared some sushi in the late 1940‘s, the cold war could have only lasted a few months. Think about that...
