However, he was extremely poor and could not afford it. So, he decided to at least maintain order inside the temple to express his respect to the Bodhisattva. The peasant took care of the temple for many years, and one day Guanyin appeared to him in a dream and said that behind the temple there was a treasure that he could take for himself, but he must also share it with others. The next day, the peasant found only a tea bush. He then decided to transplant the beautiful bush near his house. After some time, the peasant prepared from it a fragrant and tasty tea, the heavy tea leaves of which sank to the bottom when brewed, like iron. This tea was then named in honor of the goddess – Iron Bodhisattva Guanyin.
