The difficulties in chronicling the history of science when new discoveries\, such as the finding of the Jingshi book\, will be touched upon along with the history and techniques of optical lens fabrication. \nThose interested in the history of science\, astronomy\, telescope production\, optical engineering\, and Chinese history are strongly encouraged to attend. \nThis event is in person\, on the UAriz Tucson campus

It has been developed for over three thousand years and has numerous styles. Some Buddhist masters chose to use calligraphy as a vehicle to give blessings and to teach Buddhism. Quotations from sutras and admonitions for doing good are all food for thought for the general public. Copying sutras with a brush is widely practiced even after printing was invented. This lecture will focus on three masters. The talented Master Hongyi (1880-1942) taught students how to write with a brush. He advocated the protection of all sentient beings and promoted a vegetarian lifestyle. Master Hsing-yun (1927-2023)\, an epoch-making Buddhist leader\, ignited the “Endless lamp” and enabled the Buddhist light to shine throughout the five continents with his calligraphy. His work for new year blessings has been widely distributed all over the world. When he became blind he continued to write the “One-stroke characters” to continue his teaching and blessings. Master Lin Yun (1932-2010)\, a Tantric Buddhist master\, was especially good at calligraphy and wrote in numerous styles including oracle bone scripts. His colorful brush work combined calligraphy with painting on both paper and silk and in both classical and vernacular Chinese. \nSpeaker Bio: Dr. Chia-lin Pao Tao published two books on this subject in Chinese: Teaching Buddhism Through Calligraphy: Masters Hsing-yun and Hongyi and Master Lin Yun’s Calligraphy on Doing Good Deeds: A Creative Art. EHGbooks\, 2022. \nThis lecture series is made possible thanks to the generous support from the Pu Yin Educational Center. \nThis event is co-sponsored by CEAS @ UAriz.
