Ikebana!

Hello To, All My Dear Readers, My Followers and My Blogging Friends

Hope all of you are in Good Health and getting on in your lives well. Year 2024 has zoomed past and almost coming on to 2026. Today I want to write about a topic most of you have not even heard its about Japanese Flower Arranging 🙂

Traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement

Ikebana is the traditional Japanese art of flower arrangement, meaning “making flowers come alive.” It originated in the Muromachi period and has evolved over centuries, connecting generations through creativity and a love for nature. Ikebana involves selecting flowers, greenery, and other plant materials to express specific emotions, similar to painting or sculpture. It is considered one of the three classical arts of Japan, alongside kōdō (incense appreciation) and chadō (tea ceremony). Ikebana is characterized by its use of asymmetrical forms, empty space, and a sense of harmony among materials and the setting. 

The term ikebana comes from the combination of the Japanese ikeru ‘to arrange (flowers), have life, be living’) and hana (花, ‘flower’). Possible translations include ‘giving life to flowers’ and ‘arranging flowers’.

History

The pastime of viewing plants and appreciating flowers throughout the four seasons was established in Japan early on from the aristocracy. Waka poetry anthologies included many poems on the topic of flowers. With the introduction of Buddhism, offering flowers at Buddhist altars became common. Although the lotus is widely used in India where Buddhism originated, in Japan other native flowers for each season were selected for this purpose.

For a long time the art of flower arranging had no meaning, and functioned as merely the placing in vases the flowers to be used as temple offerings and before ancestral shrines, without system or meaningful structure. The first flower arrangements were composed using a system known as shin-no-hana, meaning ‘central flower arrangement’. A huge branch of pine stood in the middle, with three or five seasonable flowers placed around it. These branches and stems were put in vases in upright positions without attempting artificial curves. Generally symmetrical in form, these arrangements appeared in religious pictures in the 14th century, as the first attempt to represent natural scenery. The large tree in the centre represented distant scenery, plum or cherry blossoms middle distance, and little flowering plants the foreground. The lines of these arrangements were known as centre and sub-Centre.

The art of flower arranging developed with many schools only coming into existence at the end of the 15th century and ikebana, flower arrangement. one of the most important being that flowers offered on all ceremonial occasions, and placed as offerings should not be offered loosely, but should represent time and thought.

Ikebana has always been considered a dignified accomplishment. All of Japan’s most celebrated generals notably practised flower arranging, finding that it calmed their minds and made their decisions on the field of action clearer.

It was in the latter part of the 17th century that ikebana was most practiced and reached its highest degree of perfection as an art. only one branch of ikebana had been taught at a time,

I hope you have learnt new information on this type of flower arranging. You can use any type of flowers dried or even with pieces of just from bushes according to your imagination ❤

Books!

Hello To, All My Dear Readers, My Followers and My Blogging Friends ❤

Hope all of you are in Good Health and getting on in your lives well. Year 2024 has zoomed past and almost coming on to 2026. Today I want to write about Books. Just to say This is an introduction of Books for knowledge and not so much of Other Languages and to learn the words to use and speak day to day
and the importance of knowledge

A book is a structured presentation of recorded information, primarily verbal and graphical, through a medium. Originally physical, electronic books and audiobooks are now existent. Physical books are objects that contain printed material, mostly of writing and images. Modern books are typically composed of many pages bound together and protected by a cover, what is known as the codex format; older formats include the scroll and the clay tablet.

The word book comes from the Old English bōc, which in turn likely comes from the Germanic root *bōk-, cognate to “beech” In Slavic languages like Russian, Bulgarian, Macedonian буква bukva—”letter” is cognate with “beech”. In Russian, Serbian and Macedonian, the word букварь (bukvar’) or буквар (bukvar) refers to a primary school textbook that helps young children master the techniques of reading and writing. It is thus conjectured that the earliest Indo-European writings may have been carved on beech wood.[2] The Latin word codex, meaning a book in the modern sense (bound and with separate leaves), originally meant “block of wood”.An avid reader or collector of books is a bibliophile, or colloquially a “bookworm“.[

Definitions

In its modern incarnation, a book is typically composed of many pages (commonly of paper, parchment, or vellum) that are bound together along one edge and protected by a cover. By extension, book refers to a physical book’s written, printed, or graphic contents.[5] A single part or division of a longer written work may also be called a book, especially for some works composed in antiquity: each part of Aristotle‘s Physics, for example, is a book.

Dictionaries!

Hello To, All My Dear Readers, My Followers and My Blogging Friends. ❤

Hope all of you are in Good Health and getting on in your lives well. Year 2024 has zoomed past and almost coming on to 2026. Today I want to write about Dictionaries. Just to say This is an introduction of Dictionaries for knowledge and not so much of Other Languages and to learn the words to use and speak day to day 🙂

:1. a reference source in print or electronic form containing words usually alphabetically arranged along with information about their forms, pronunciations, functions, etymologies, meanings, and syntactic and idiomatic uses

2a reference book listing alphabetically terms or names important to a particular subject or activity along with discussion of their meanings and applications

3a reference book listing alphabetically the words of one language and showing their meanings or translations in another language

4a computerized list (as of items of data or words) used for reference (as for information retrieval or word processing)

book or electronic resource that lists the words of a language (typically in alphabetical order) and gives their meaning, or gives the equivalent words in a different language, often also providing information about pronunciation, origin, and usage:

What are the most important words to learn?

Oxford Learner’s Dictionaries can help.

From a / an to zone, the Oxford 3000 is a list of the 3,000 core words that every learner of English needs to know. Every word is aligned to the CEFR, to guide learners to learn the most important words and meanings at A1-B2 levels.

And from the Oxford 5000 adds an extra 2,000 words for advanced learners at level to supplement their vocabulary and their learning goals!

Time!

Hello to, All My Dear Readers, Followers and My Blogging Friends ❤

Hope All of You are keeping well and Happy. As usual I am keeping in Good Health and moving forward doing my usual, activities. I decided to rewrite some of the old articles with added knowledge and the changes The world has gone through. This is a Topic I have not written before and I like to write new posts, so this is about Thinking and Reflection is almost the same but it is Thinking Deeply!

Time is the continuous progression of existence that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, and into the future. Time dictates all forms of action, age, , being a quantity of various measurements used to compare the duration of events.

The definition of time is the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues. It is often referred to as a continuum that lacks spatial dimensions, and it is used to quantify duration and events

Time is primarily measured in linear spans or periods, ordered from shortest to longest. Practical, human-measurements of time are performed using clocks and calendars, reflecting a 24-hour day collected into a 365-day year linked to Earth. Throughout history, time has been an important subject of study in religion, philosophy, and science. Temporal measurement has occupied scientists and technologists, and has been a prime motivation in navigation and astronomy. Time is also of significant social importance, having economic value (“time is money“) as well as personal value, due to an awareness of the limited time in each day.

frequently, repeatedly
Examples of time in a Sentence Noun The two events were separated by time and space. The poem is a reflection on the passage of time. What was happening at that particular moment in time?

Measurement

The flow of sand in an hourglass can be used to measure the passage of one hour of time. It also concretely represents the present as being between the past and the future.

Methods of temporal measurement, or chronometry, generally take two forms. The first is a calendar, a mathematical tool for organising intervals of time on Earth, consulted for periods longer than a day. The second is a clock, a physical mechanism that indicates the passage of time, consulted for periods less than a day. The combined measurement marks a specific moment in time from a reference point, or epoch.

Time is one of the seven fundamental physical quantities in both the International System of Units (SI) and International System of Quantities. The SI base unit of time is the second, which is defined by measuring the electronic transition frequency of caesium atoms.
