栗原密巌和尚
This scroll features the phrase “松風塵外心” (Shōfū Jin Gai no Kokoro), a profound Zen expression that embodies inner peace.
“Shōfū Jin Gai no Kokoro” translates to “A Mind Beyond the Dust, like the Pine Wind.” It symbolizes a tranquil heart, as pure as the breeze whispering through pine trees, representing freedom from worldly distractions and worries—a Zen ideal.
This calligraphy reminds us to maintain an untroubled mind. When overwhelmed, reflect on these words, picture nature’s stillness, let go of inner noise, and rediscover peace.
