Summary
[edit]DescriptionSiddham alphabet by Kukai.svg |
English: This calligraphy of the alphabet is by Kūkai. This image of Kūkai's calligraphy is from the Ashara-jō, a collection published in 1837 by the Japanese monk Sō-gen. Sō-gen traced fine examples of Siddhaṃ calligraphy and then inked in the middle, thereby creating reasonably accurate facsimilies. The original of this calligraphy was 90cm high. The Ashara-jō has been reproduced as Raghu Vira and Lokesh Chandra (eds.) Sanskrit bījas and mantras in Japan (New Delhi : International Academy of Indian Culture, 1965); and in R.H. Van Gulik. Siddham : An Essay on the History of Sanskrit Studies in China and Japan (New Delhi, Jayyed Press, 1981), p.183. |
