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.
