Hitsuzendō

Hitsuzendō

Summary

Hitsuzendō is believed by Zen Buddhists to be a method of achieving samādhi, which is unification of the mind in meditative absorption. Hitsuzendo refers specifically to a school of Japanese Zen calligraphy to which the rating system of modern calligraphy is foreign. Instead, the calligraphy of Hitsuzendo must breathe with the vitality of eternal experience.
