Seal Script Calligraphy of the Buddhist Name "Namo Amitabha Buddha" (篆書“南無阿彌陀佛”)

This piece of calligraphy, written in seal script by Professor Wang Fei, depicts the Buddhist phrase “Namo Amitābha” and radiates a sense of antiquity, solemnity, and spiritual vitality. Seal script, one of the oldest forms of Chinese calligraphy, is known for its rhythmic lines and distinctive structure, perfectly complementing the sacred and transcendent meaning carried by the Buddha’s name. The brushwork throughout the piece is steady and fluid, with strokes that are rounded and elegant. It maintains the balanced and dignified structure typical of seal script, while also conveying the artist’s personal devotion and spiritual insight. The characters “Namo” unfold with a gentle reverence, evoking a sense of homage and surrender. The following four characters, “Amitābha,” are compact and precisely formed, projecting the compassion and majesty embodied in the Buddha’s name. What stands out most is that the artist does not merely demonstrate technical skill; he also infuses the work with his deep Buddhist faith. This gives the calligraphy not only high artistic value, but also a profound spiritual resonance. The use of red ink symbolizes harmony and auspiciousness, while also expressing sincerity and reverence—perfectly aligned with the meaning of the sacred phrase. Overall, this is a remarkable work that integrates both artistic beauty and religious devotion, serving as a visual expression of calligraphy and faith alike.
