General

The method of learning books, care about one heart, the heart can turn the wrist, the hand can turn the pen. The great must be tight in holding the pen, the pen is to live, the hand is not the main luck but the wrist is lucky, although the wrist is the main luck but the heart is lucky. The Right Army said: "Intention to write first." This dharma also. The ancients wrote for a reason, never vain hair; today's people are good at drowning and stubborn, let the pen be the body, swing it arbitrarily, show off their novelty with little knowledge, and disregard the mistakes with their intentions, and investigate the wonderful situation of the ancients, have no understanding, and hope that they will rise to the wei hall! Where the pen has a beginning and an end, (a stroke and a word, there is a beginning and an end. There is a slow urgency, (slow to meet the heart, anxious to take the momentum. There is an encapsulation band, (the encapsulation belt is connected to the vein. There is a loop, (i.e., no going, no receipt.) There is light and heavy, (where the shoulder transition is light, where the painting is squatting with weight.) There is a turn, (if the front is used to the left, the front must be turned to the right, such as the book turning the shoulder, the inside square and the outer circle.) The book must be straight inside and out, there must be a twist, and the square is not solid. There is virtual reality, (such as the use of real and the palm of the hand with the virtual, such as the elbow with the real and the wrist with the virtual, such as the small book with the real, and the big book with the virtual, and the larger with the virtual, the larger with the virtual.) There is a bias, (even the use of a bias is also to take the momentum, but the positive edge can not make its pen biased, the party has no disadvantages of wang bo miscellaneous places.) There is a Tibetan front and a dew front, (the Tibetan front to cover its qi, and the dew front to indulge its gods.) The Tibetan front is higher than the outgoing front, and it is not allowed to use ambiguity as the hidden front, and it must be used with a pen, such as the meaning of Tai'a to cut iron. Even when there is no pen, you can also use your bare hands to hold the pen and write a book, practicing self-familiarity for a long time. Even if you lie down, you can mean it. Since then, only by exerting force to the place of composure and pleasure can we take the gods of the ancients, if we blindly imitate the ancient method, and feel that the carving is too much, we must take off the imitation path, get out of the machine axis, grow old and mature, but create plain, so that the ancient law will travel to the pen end, and then convey the gods. He who preaches God will join hands with his heart and mind and forget what God has entrusted himself with. Today's people are suffering from empty hearts and exhaustion, and they can never leave their original faces, so that they can talk to God, and wu can get it? Ancient Youyun: The essence of calligraphy, the magic lies in being able to merge, and the gods are able to leave. The so-called departers must double the processing power and naturally produce wonderfully. Even if it is detached from the wrist, it is still nourished in the heart, and fang has no right-hand military habits. (Pen and pencil imitation can not be detached, that is, the habit of the right army.) Lu Gong's so-called interesting long pen is short, often making the intention more than enough, the strangeness outside the words, and the words cannot be exhausted. Therefore, the students respect the people and draw the tiger also. Learn the yuan changer, draw the dragon also. Yu said that those who studied the right army had no trace of painting and no name for painting.

again

The first writing, do not have to spend more ink. Take the ancient Tuoshan book and play it carefully and familiarize it, both compound and back to the post. Learn and think, think and learn, if there is a situation in the heart, and then raise the pen and chase it, it seems to be in the heart, can not be in the hand, then learn and think again, think again and again, first get two or three, both get four or five, and from then on the book to expand its quantity. There is always a way to write, and the pen is appropriate. Real book grip, close to the tip of the pen an inch. The line is wide and longitudinal, and it is advisable to be a little farther away, and it can be two inches away. Cursive is flowing, and it is advisable to be farther away, three inches away. The pen is at the end of the finger, the palm is empty, to know and grasp, there is no fixed law. Familiar is skillful, and it must be clumsy more than skillful, and then it is really clever. But avoid the real palm, the palm can not turn freely, so that the pen power comes from the wrist. The pen head is stiff, the wrist is light, and the dot painting wave is leaping and falling, and it is not appropriate. If the palm is not free, it is an edge and an angle, and the longitudinal is also a dew, and the pen is dead. The wrist is upright, and the front is fully fronted on all sides. I often think that the brush edge is in the painting, then the left and right are the source, and the quiet is called dry. Learning words is complete, still cultivated in the heart, so that there is no tacky, and the Tibetan front is gradually matured. The method of hiding the front is all in the grip of the pen not deep, deep, the palm of the truth is also said. For example, the stirrup is easy to enter and exit, and the writing is also the same. 

The method is like a fast horse, and it is not allowed to stagnate, such as sitting and lying down, and each is extreme. Grass is like a snake into the grass, birds out of the forest, coming and going, unstoppable, unstoppable. First the author is the main, and then the author is the guest, and the guest must take care of each other, inherit the ups and downs, neglect the wind god, and secretly take the old. The truth turns and then the grass folds and then the strength. Take the bone as the body, take the Lord inside, and the Fa takes the seriousness, the flesh as the use, to show the outside, and the Fa takes the light and healthy. Make the flesh and bones stop evenly, the qi pulse runs through, the sparse and flat places are fully used, and the dense places and dangerous places are lifted. Full to get fat, extract lean. If you are too thin, you will be dry, and if you are too fat, you will be turbid. If the muscles and bones are not standing, what is the fat and flesh attached; the shape is not healthy, where is the radiance? Those who have more meat and small bones are called ink pigs, and those who have more bones and those who have small meat are called dead vines. The book must be cooked and then cooked, and then cooked and then born. The gentleman's learning ability has not yet arrived, and his heart and hands are contrary; the later generations do not fall into a strange path, and the changes are unprovoked. However, the pen is not expensive, expensive is not expensive, Gui Han swimming is not expensive to reveal, and expensive is naturally not expensive. The cover is round and moist, and the potential disease is astringent. It should not be too tight and strong, and it should not be too dangerous to take steep. Chi is raw and the posture is not charming, and the speed is raw and the muscles are not tied. Can be fast and fast, so as to take the gods; should be too late, anti-perceive loss of power. No matter where the Tibetan front comes out, it must be well organized, and the momentum must not be lost to its dot paintings and make the momentum fragmented. 

If you want to write a book, you must first concentrate on meditation, embrace Xiao Scattered, write love in a pottery way, anticipate the glyphs to be straight and straight, and then write it. If you are forced by things, if you are bound by the times, you will succumb to the situation, although Zhong and Wang cannot be good. Where a book is completed, it is advisable to observe its physical posture, and if it can enter and exit the ancient law, and then add experience, it is natural and wonderful. But confined to small sections, afraid and suspicious, lost in the pen, confused under the wrist, not a book. Today's people write books, such as the bride's grooming, extreme embellishment, and finally no martyr woman's state, why not catch the ancients? 

Answer the question of calligraphy

The guest said, "There is a so-called attachment to the method of writing books, but can it be smelled?" Sheling Zi said: "It is not the right depth, the length and length of the salty are appropriate." ”

"Secondly, if you want to say it, can you smell it?" A: "Non-vertical and chaotic, impedent and informal." ”

"The second word is turned, can you smell it?" A: "Non-hook and arrow are not obedient, and the coils belong to each other." ”

"Secondary use, can you smell it?" A: "Not a little bit of division to the back, a painting to distinguish the ups and downs." ”

"There is also a way to drown the strong disease, can you smell it?" "If you can't be fast or not fast, it's drowning; if you can stay or not, can you be strong and sick?" 

"Don't make the shape like an operator, the size is equal, can it smell?" "Non-distribution cannot be arranged, the body cannot be inverted, and each word is true." ”

"And you have a body and a good use, a detachment of no self, can you smell it?" "You have to understand it, the meaning is written first, the guide is like a note, the mountain is like a mountain, the power of the electric dragon flying, and the wonder of the cloud collapse beast is everything?" 

"There is also the disadvantage of blunt and slippery protrusion, can you smell it?" "Is it not to pretend to be drowned by suspicion, or to be called to be detached by embarrassment?"

"If a boulder is a road, a dry maple is dangerous, can it be smelled?" "Non-Yan posture is insufficient, the physique is still there, and it is said that it is a strong point of intention to be rigid." 

"Like an autumn snake entangled in a thing, a spring forest falling in the buds, can you smell it?" Yue: "Non-bone-qi separation, specializing in femininity, with a slow heart and eventually becoming a vulgar fetus." ”

"And there is easy to take off, light lock arbitrary, completely undisciplined, casually ill-conceived, can you smell it?" "Not to lose the rules, to be rewarded, to scratch the world's affairs, and to be stained with the meaning of the common officials." ”

"Good deeds, please ask for details." ”

"The essence of calligraphy is not to be ancient or modern." The ancients do not catch the ancients today, the ancients use the hostages and the present people use yan, and the ancients retreat and the present people are full. The quality is against the times, and the yan is so vulgar. Virtual so specialized, full so self-painting also. Give the weak crown to know the book, pay attention to the Quaternary. Pillow and foothills, taste the post, imitate it from time to time, double the memory, the cold and heat do not move, the wind and rain are endless. Though poor and troubled, they are all in harmony with all the theories. After tasting the Han and Jin Dynasties to arrest Tang, the ancestors were far away and could not be questioned. Occasionally, or at a loss. The so-called skill and ingenuity, awe-inspiring dare not admit it. About the ancients: "Although the formula of application is out, the rules will follow the ancients." Learning rules is not as old as less, and thinking and applying is less than old. "The old are not as good as the young, the expectation can be encouraged, the less is not as good as the old, the older the more refined." And to make progress on the pole, it is necessary to take advantage of the situation. Non-strong profits cannot take the momentum, and non-turning cannot be taken. If you return to peace in a dangerous place, even if you are in a normal place, you can also cover the fun of danger, and the situation and the result are two wins. Therefore, a scholar of zhi must go to a place of sorrow and misery in order to be able to understand the wrist, forget what he wants, have both efficacy and superiority, and unify his temperament, and then write a book. "The guest retreated to the book gentlemen.

Sheling YiShi Yue: The following passage is a question and answer, and the sentence is made between the "Pen Array Diagram" and the "Book Spectrum", which is not profane, but if this is thought to be a commentary, the people of The Zhizhi Scholar, when they see it, are they not happy? 

On the beginning of the word

Fu Xi drew a picture of the heavens, the opportunity to create, and the words began to stand. Since there are dragon books, spike books, cloud books, bird books, insect books, turtle books, snail books, tadpole books, bell book, as well as tiger claws, mosquito feet, shrimp and toads, all of which are taken from form and written. The ancient emperor Qi Meng, Cangjie Zhao, has six books, and the calligraphy is prepared. From then on, Shi Li changed into a big seal, Li Si changed into a small seal, Wang Cizhong changed into an eight-point, Cheng Mi changed into a Lishu, and Cai Yong changed into a feibai. Flying white, the jieye of the book, the jieye of the book, the jieye of the eighth of the book. Eight points reduce the half of the seal, and the small seal reduces the half of the large seal, and the ancient body gradually becomes farther away, and the book body gradually becomes true, so the six meanings and eight bodies are practiced in the world, and the Kai fa is born.

On the letters

Cover it must first make the frame between the words clearly weighed, get its glyph, and then follow the law, naturally fit. However, the size, complexity, length, and breadth and narrowness must not be made straight like an operator, but it can be used in terms of its essence, as far as its situation, not limited to the strokes, and curbing its interest. To make the pen vigorous, the characters are different, the lines are special, extremely natural, it is the law. It must still be carried with it, so that it may be scattered, and the bones must be contained in the middle, and the tendons must not be exposed. There is no hanging, no shrinking, no going, no collection, the party is the Tibetan front, and the party makes people think outside the word. If it is made in large letters, the structure is noble and dense, otherwise it is lazy and godless, and if it is too dense, it is afraid of being involved in the world. It is easy to be cramped, but it is open and has large font segments. Those who are prone to cramping, the disease is to tighten the pen, and if the wrist is not working, it is pulled left and right; the pen should be suspended in the empty palm, and turn to live on its own. If you do not empty the palm of your hand but intend to be behind the pen, you will get its dots and ears, not books.

In short, practice is not informal, natural and wonderful. There is Tang who takes people with calligraphy, so he specializes in strict order, and is extremely interested in Ou and Yan. The Ou and Yan families should be consulted in the temple. If it is normal, when Fa Zhong, Wang, and Yu Shu "Oriental Painting Praise", "Le Yi Theory", "Cao E Monument", "Luoshen Endowment", and "Preface to the Theory of Breaking Evil" are the same, he does not have to take it.

On the Book of Conduct

All books should be arranged and radiant. The arrangement is based on the luck of the heart, the spirit is born of the luck pen, the real book is guer, and the line is the same. Gai Xingshu was written in the Later Han Dynasty By Liu Desheng, and Wei Zhongxuan was also good at writing xingshu, the so-called practitioner, that is, the small number of real books. After the simple interstitial, such as the clouds and water flow, the fibers out, not the real and not the grass, away from the square and round, is the shortcut of the Kai li. It is necessary to knot a small word, reflect anya, strengthen the old, and sprinkle the wind and bones. Although the words are not connected but the climate is connected, the ink is more than enough and the fat is commensurate. Xu Xing walked slowly, so that there were rules; left and right, no obedience program. It should not be too late to use, and it should not be too late to be obsessed with less gods; it should not be too fast, and it should not be too fast, and it should be embarrassing and lose its momentum. The arrangement is moderate, the beginning and the end of the stool; the body is uneven, the temperament is Anto? There is no attack, there is no energy, there is no attack, the spirit is unchanged. If the heart does not doubt the hand, the hand does not doubt the pen, there is no trace of wit, there is no galloping form. It is necessary to know that the strong beam is not courageous, the weak is not harmonious; if the outside is excellent, the middle is strong; the spirit should be dedicated, the heart is equal; the body is flowing, changing with the times; making the implicit good to hide, do not sharpen and reveal the cleverness; if the way of the Yellow Emperor is bustling, the gentleman's style is Mu Muran. In this way, the book is complete. There is also a difference between xingkai and grass, and they all take the "Zen Thesis" of the Right Army of the Fa, the "Sacred Order" of Huairen, the "Poyang", "Duck Head Pill", "Liu Daoshi", and "Goose Flock" of the Da Ling, and the various families are secondary.

On cursive writing

Hanxing has cursive writing. Xu Kai said that Zhang Zhen made grass, and there was no doubt that the grass was after HanXing. The method of Du Du, Cui Yu, and Cui Yi Cao began to be smooth. Zhang Boying changed it again. Wang Yi shaoli and zhongmei, will become a family, called "book saint". Wang DaLing had the will of Yi Shao, every grass, the first word of the line, often continued to go forward to the end, so that the blood veins were connected, and posterity called it "a book of strokes", since bo Ying began. Wei Ou de Bo Ying's tendons, Suo Jing de Bo Ying's bones, followed by Zhang Qian and Huai Su, are all called "grass saints". Fat is good, su likes to be thin; thin is easy, fat is difficult, make sure to be fat and thin, flesh and bone, such as printing mud, painting sand, ups and downs with the trend. The pen is regular and the pen is sharp, and the pen is on the side. Cursive uses flanking and magic. Yi Shao tastes the clouds: make the grass to make its pen open, natural and strong, indulgent and unrestrained, overturn the wrist to turn, hang the pipe to gather the front, and soft and unobtrusive support. The left is the outer extension, and the right is the inner volt. There is a degree of internal voltation, and it begins with the Tibetan front. If the pen is exhausted, it must be picked up for pleasure, and impermanence is also.

However, cursive writing is expensive and smooth, the ink is easy to be sick, the illness must be slow, slow to be antique, the disease is surprising, or the bundle hugs, or the swaying, or the gloomy and exalted, or falling off and jagged, do not reciprocate, at first break the connection, inherit the upper birth, the lover of the mother, all kinds of brushwork, such as people sitting and lying, standing, running, giving way, singing and dancing, wrestling, drunkenness, and lodging, each with all their intentions, in order to have it. If the line of spring worms, the word autumn snake, belongs to the number of ten and continuous, and the knot is like a gossamer piece, it is the great disadvantage of not being a good scholar. The ancients saw the snake fighting and the danfu arguing and realized the cursive, Yan Lu Gong yue: Zhang Changshiguan Lonely Peng Zi Zhen, Frightened Sand Sitting Fly and Gongsun Da Niang Dancing Sword Weapon, the beginning of the low and high flying back, it can be seen that the grass is uncertain, it must be taken by the ancients as the law, and then can be enlightened to be born outside the ancient law. Enlightenment is born outside the ancient law and then can be ancient in order to establish one's own law.

Shooting Ling Yi Shi Zhi: Cursive writing must be taken with strength and strength, and taken by spirit, such as birds and birds, determined to fly, beasts of prey, intention to gallop, nothing more than vivid, to be detached, will be will, be self-aware.

[Note] "Calligraphy Covenant" is a theoretical work of Chinese calligraphy in the Qing Dynasty. By Song Cao. Song Cao (宋曹), courtesy name Binchen (字彬臣), was a courtesan of The Emperor, a trumpeter, and a self-proclaimed cultivator of the sea. A native of song dynasty (present-day Yancheng, Jiangsu). Ming Chongzhen was a Zhongshu at the time, and after entering the Qing Dynasty, he lived in seclusion. Gong poetry, good cursive.

"Calligraphy Covenant" 1 volume 7 articles. That is, there are 2 articles in general, 1 article on calligraphy for answering questions, 1 article on the beginning of writing, and 3 articles on calligraphy, writing, and cursive writing. In this work, Song Cao concentrated on his theory of calligraphy. He believes that the brushwork of calligraphy is expensive and elegant, not expensive and gorgeous; expensive and smooth, not expensive and tight; expensive and subtle, not expensive and revealing; expensive and natural, not expensive and contrived. Speaking of the key to calligraphy, the magic lies in being able to merge, and God is able to leave. Regarding the writing, he advocated that the first writing should not be copied on paper and ink, but should take the ancient Tuo rare books, play carefully, familiarize them with them, and then ask for them; they should be studied and thought at the same time, repeatedly carried out, and then raised their pens. On cursive writing, he said that Zhang Xu likes to be fat, and Huai Su likes to be thin; it is easy to be thin and difficult to be fat. It is believed that the use of flankers when writing cursive can produce magic. Cursive writing must be taken with strength and strength, and taken by spirit. It is said that cursive writing is indeterminate, and it must be based on the ancients as the law, and then it can be realized to be born outside the ancient law, and after enlightenment, it can make itself ancient, and it can also produce its own methods and appearances.
