Buddhist
Meticulous
Painting….
The Skillful
Means to the
Practice of
Dharma….
Learning Buddhist painting is
the skillful means of practicing
Dharma. Painting Buddhas
achieves the true meaning of
“once seen through the eyes, forever
becomes the seed of Buddhahood”.
The word “skillful” manifests in the
fact that there is no age limit when it
comes to painting Buddhas, and you
need not any academic credentials nor
art-related backgrounds. In the art of
Buddhist meticulous painting, the lines
are painted to be neat and elegant,
and the colors colorful and vibrant. It
requires continuous practice to present
the paintings as beautiful yet containing
the ability of touching sentient
beings and moving them to praise
Buddhas. When one fully focuses on
painting Buddhas, he/she is practicing
meditative concentration, which would
breed Dharma joy and wisdom. A key
element of painting Buddhas is “purity”.
Images of Buddhas reflect Buddhas’
virtues and beauty. Painting Buddhas
is to have one’s mind stay focused and
pure while creating graceful paintings
of Buddhas that can inspire and purify
sentient beings. Therefore, by sharing
skills and merits of painting Buddhas,
we are able to benefit both ourselves
and others. Painting Buddhas is truly
a wonderful way of practicing Dharma.
Chen Yu-Yuan Buddhist Art Association,
a nonprofit organization in Taiwan,
works diligently to teach and promote
Buddhist paintings. It has over forty
Buddhist painting classes island-wide.
