Thank you for viewing. This item is being offered for sale to clear out inventory of my creations. Although some time has passed since its creation, it has been stored in a place away from direct sunlight. Please carefully review the photos and description to assess the condition of the item (including any age-related changes) before considering a purchase. "Meireki Rekki Rododo" (明歴々露堂々) 【Meaning of the words】 This is a Zen phrase that means "clearly and distinctly revealed, openly and boldly displayed." It teaches that the truth and the teachings of the Buddha are not hidden in some special, profound place, but are already clearly and boldly present in everything, such as the mountains, rivers, and every single tree and blade of grass before our eyes. This is a very refined phrase that represents the universal worldview of Mahayana Buddhism, which is **"everything in its natural state is precious."** 【Features of the artwork】 The powerful brushstrokes express the bold presence of truth. This is a one-of-a-kind piece, hand-written. Please examine the photos to see the energy of the brushwork and the shades of ink. 【Recommended scenes】 〇 Throughout the year (all seasons), as a decoration for the tokonoma (alcove) in a tea room or at home. 〇 As a display in a Japanese-style room or living room to cultivate the ability to see the essence of things in daily life. 〇 Also ideal as a gift for those who love Zen teachings and those who seek inner peace. 【Product Details】 Calligraphy: Handwritten by the seller (original) Calligraphy: One-of-a-kind Size: Tanzaku (vertical 36cm × horizontal 6cm approx.)
