Reflective Spiritual Dialogue of Goh cheng hai Arts Practice / 觀照心靈對話 - 吳清海創作版畫論述

碩士 / 國立臺灣師範大學 / 美術學系 / 100 / This article is based on the author’s long-time observation on human development, driven by one’s own profits and interests, and the consequential impacts toward the Earth, environment, and climate conditions. Such human activities cause scary disasters on Earth and create the condition of “incompatibility among four major elements” and “fragility and frailness of land and ground”, which are common expressions in Buddhism. Therefore, the importance of “purification of mind” is recognized.
The article introduces the idea of Chan, and further explains the meanings and the methods and hierarchy of practice. Through the black-and-white and plain features of printmaking, the author’s long-time experience of practicing meditation is demonstrated via a 3X3 grid. Ten pieces of works are created, namely “The awakened one”, “Bodhi mind”, “Spiritual environment protection”, “Protecting the Earth”, “Investigating hua-tou”, “Wandering thoughts”, “Silent-illumination”, “Vegetarian”, “Birth and decease”, and “Reciting in a unified mind”. The works convey the process of the author’s practice of meditation and deliver the benefits of practicing meditation. Furthermore, the works remind the audience the importance of body and mind purification and the ease of body and mind.
