Question
Does your school of Buddhism frown upon drinking tea while
meditating?  Or is it considered helpful?

Answer
Hello Jason,

Google for instance "tea ceremony meditation" for a lot of ready information on the Internet.

All activities can be meditative if you carry them out accordingly.

The objective of all meditation, as we see it, is to to learn to live fully in the herenow.

It is not an objective in itself.

Somebody said that we should learn to do everything the same as we listen to music.

Kind regards,
Advayavadananda.
