CALLIGRAPHY
One cannot find in any history book an unknowledgeable person who has made a contribution to calligraphy. Those with profound and extensive knowledge are not necessarily proficient in calligraphy. However, a great calligrapher must have both knowledge and good brushwork. Without exception, all of the famous calligraphers throughout the generations were great masters of literature who had profound knowledge. Examples of this include ancient calligraphers such as Xizhi Wang, Su Huai, Shaoji He, Huaiguan Zhang, and Fei Yue. A modern example is Youren Yu. Each one of them was an extremely learned literary giant and paragon of virtue.
Knowledge is the pillar and cornerstone of calligraphy. Moral character can be seen in the style and charm of calligraphy. Thus, calligraphy requires both knowledge and moral character.
One can see from this how the calligraphy of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III has completely transcended the mundane. It is the calligraphy of a true Buddha. His Holiness’s calligraphic skills have reached such a pinnacle due to His complete realization in the Five Vidyas.
南無第三世多杰羌佛的書法能達到如此登峰造極的境界，全然來源於他博大的學識，精深的才華，當然臨帖的功夫對於佛陀來說一揮體成，而紮實雄厚，方能自成大家。比如南無第三世多杰羌佛在初涉書門之時，即有傳統草書的堅實功夫和博大學識的修養，我們見到書法的第一張，即是初學草書的功底，而以他自吟之七絕詩『華宮日月麗陽天，喜乘西風六月閒，故朋來從叭聲望，始知暑氣已冬殘』何等詩句脫盡煙火之氣，高風清奇，不染塵俗。南無第三世多杰羌佛深居古寺，卻以超凡的證量，發抒情懷，闡顯寺廟雖一室
之間卻為孤隱清高，超凡脫俗，但卻樂盡無窮豪華天籟，故吟曰:『華宮日月麗陽天』統率日月之天地，而會之人間福盛，一句『喜乘西風六月閒』點出了在夏日炎炎卻迎納清浴，乘駕佛陀西風之涼風沐體，心境無遷，閒於寂靜，放展宇宙，輕安極樂，人我兩忘，故友來臨亦聞叭聲所得，已與世超然，清淨無為，南無第三世多杰羌佛不記時日，應無所住，而世外人卻茫然牽掛，登車奔馬告訴三世多杰羌佛，已經不是夏天了，冬天都快完了，古佛心有會意卻莞爾一笑。由此境界，我們可見南無第三世多杰羌佛之書法如何脫盡人間煙火之氣，是真正的佛陀之書啊!
