○ Chinese calligraphy – Running script
Running script lies somewhere between regular script and cursive script, boasting a fluid and dynamic structure, with continuous yet measured strokes. Its natural and unrestrained strokes, alternating between fast and slow, convey the writer's emotions and are well-suited for expressing inner thoughts. Practicing running script cultivates an inner sense of rhythm and emotional balance, helping the writer find peace of mind amidst the fluidity of the brushstrokes.
- Written words:
- Observe your mind with a clear mirror and let the light shine upon you.
- Observe the Mind Like a Clear Mirror, Let Inner Light Shine Naturally
- Writing Tips:
- The diagnostic assessment process can be anxiety-provoking, and cursive script can help stabilize emotions. When writing "A clear mirror observes the mind, and a harmonious light illuminates the self," the brushstrokes should be clear and thorough, cultivating a peaceful state of mind during the process of self-observation and acceptance.
