Pete Klein Posted October 25, 2015 Report Posted October 25, 2015 I would appreciate greatly the translation/meaning behind this calligraphy. I find it very interesting but I cannot appreciate without it's meaning. Thanks so much in advance, Peter PS: It seems I've developed a serious case of kakejiku fetish... Quote
Drago Posted October 25, 2015 Report Posted October 25, 2015 I tried using Markus' cursive book, but there are more than a few that look similar... I really haven't gotten the hang of cursive, yet. Sorry. As for "kakejiku fetish" +1! Me too... Quote
k morita Posted October 25, 2015 Report Posted October 25, 2015 Hi,It says 清寂(seijaku; sei-jaku in Japanese),meaning is Silence/Tranquility/ purity and tranquility. On the other hand, "seijaku" means [The state that heart(Spirit) was silent and clear] in Zen Buddihsm.. Quote
Pete Klein Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Posted October 26, 2015 Thank you so much again Morita san!!! I really liked this work and the meaning is wonderful. As the calligrapher was a Zen Monk it makes sense. I can see this used in early morning Chanoyu. Thanks again, Peter Quote
