A tayu did not meet her clients in the "green houses" but was summoned to a client's residence by formal invitation, sometimes for a duration of up to a week.

The Tayu tradition in they teach employs several Gurdjieffian practices as fundamental to Tayu practice.

In this rare panel event, teachers of the Advaita Vedanta and Fourth Way-based Tayu Meditation traditions come together to discuss the fundamental paradox of spiritual practice: how efforts in the phenomenal realm can be a necessary step in the process of embodying the non-phenomenal divine.

 History of the Geisha world
The Tayu were said to be extremely extravagant and would often hold impromptu fashion parades by flaunting their sumptous clothing in front of the other courtesans, and in doing so specify a natural hierarchy in the pleasure quarter.
The Tayu soon seemed to lose their popularity and today there are no full time Tayu in existence, though a handful of women keep up the tradition by playing out the role in daylight hours for exhibitions.
The stigma of advertising for girls to join the profession has meant that the numbers do not grow, and there is a social understanding that while it may be very elegant to visit a Geisha it is not likely that one would wish their own daughter to become one.

Long pieces take about 90 minutes, and the number of characters can vary from only a few to around fifteen.
