Hard work, though dry and moist; Full of energy, though thin.
He believes that the people in the Book of Jin are "not coherent but coherent; The books of the Tang Dynasty are both in form and spirit. "Each has its own characteristics and artistic personality. In his creation, he demanded that "intention comes first, and God follows the law". Yiju pen is an old saying. " "God follows the law" does not mean that "God" exists only when there is "law", but that "law" represents "God". He thinks this is the main point of calligraphy. Why did the ancients use it and use it? According to what? Focus on "god" and "spirit", and "law" is used to represent "spirit".
"At the beginning of the Millennium, I shook my clothes and filled the Wan Li stream." You must have this atmosphere when writing a book. Its careful intention is like a needle-piercing device.
If you put the silk in the hole, it's not bad, it's the hole in the middle.
If you are energetic, your words will be short and your voice will rise and fall. The same is true of books.
All this is about the spirit, just another way of saying it. Apart from comparing the different forms and styles of various calligraphers, his book Yi Yi Xue Shen hardly talks about techniques, only about calligraphy and aesthetics. He thinks:
Words can be ancient, not old; Dust can be old, clean dust is ancient, and ancient is new.
Usually, "ancient" and "old" are connected, and "new" and "old" are opposite. Here, Yao separated the ancient from the old and linked "new" and "ancient" as antonyms. (Source Calligraphy House: www.shufawu.com) This is not a word game, here is dialectics. What he called "old" is simple, quaint and really stupid. In art, these are always alive. "Old" is old, stale and decrepit. Although it may have an ancient form, it does not have an "ancient" aesthetic spirit. In fact, it is not just a cliche (paying attention to other people's faces), but also a creative mind blinded by the current standards, flattering and vulgar, and embellishing in every way. Although it looks very innovative, it is very trite and lifeless. People with pure spirit are naive and natural, which is the common feature of ancient art that people expect. It conforms to the ancient laws and has a new life, so he added:
A pure heart without desire and a spiritual character are proof of sincerity.
Obviously, these words are targeted, but they are more subtle.
Yao is not strong enough to survive in ancient monuments, but emphasizes the charm of ancient monuments and writes books with his own spirit. His statement is:
A Diamond Sutra is a kind of outlook on life, but it also teaches people to look good. Learn from ancient books. Listen to the Buddha.
Understanding the beauty of calligraphy in Qin, Han, Jin and Tang dynasties is based on one's own spirit, which is also the reason why Buddhism and Taoism can't be separated anywhere.
Ancient monuments look expensive, but they are not expensive when they are born. When it is wonderful, the pen becomes absorbed. Playing the piano in ancient times is like a ghost enjoying a sacrifice and sucking it.
Qi, do not eat its quality.
There is nothing to learn about ancient monuments. In the Han Dynasty, if you were on a cliff, you could not act with your hands, but with your heart. The heart knows its miracles, and the hand follows them.
Learn from the inscriptions in Han, Wei, Jin and Tang Dynasties, and return them to their true colors. Without me, I would be vulgar; chase
After proficiency, you will gain a lot, and you can't do without me.
The Book of Jin says: illegal, non-illegal, realize this, you can eat the past without changing.
