Introduction to Siddham Calligraphy

Buddhist Calligraphy is a spiritual practice that can be very rewarding in itself - it combines mindfulness, meaningful action, and aesthetic appreciation. The experience itself can be uplifting and transformative especially when combined with reflections on the "meaning" of the letter being written. It is also useful for those who visualise mantras as familiarity with the forms makes for more vivid images.

This class will provide an introduction to the Siddham script. Beginning with the seed-syllable 'a' we will explore the basic methods for creating beautiful calligraphy. A small class means plenty of individual attention and means that you can learn at your own pace.
