Qing Zhuo's appreciation | the long volume of Xiao Kai's Diamond Sutra

Dunhuang wrote the scriptures vividly and vividly, but many of the writers are not named, and we uniformly call them "jingsheng".

However, there are exceptions.

For example, in November of the first year of Wu Zetianyi Fengfeng, there appeared a volume of the Vajrapani Prajnaparamita Sutra, which is a famous work written by a writer named Liu Hongjue.

This nearly five-meter-long scripture is one of the scriptures that Wu Zetian made in his heart and soul to pursue his mother's blessing, and the font is flowing and elegant.

At the end of the long volume, not only the names of the bookkeepers are marked, but also the time of copying, the amount of paper used, the information of the beginner, the re-schooler, the third school, the reader, the decorator, the envoy, the judge, and so on. So many people "serve" such a roll of paper, which is similar to the link of publishing a book now.

Her Majesty the Empress attaches great importance to the writing of the Scriptures, of course, using the best writers. Liu Hongjue's pen, the characters are pearlescent, flowing and elegant, and they do not lose their solemnity, which can be called the masterpieces of Tang dynasty scripture writing.

Take a look at the beautiful parts -
