In the art of calligraphy, elegance and style are the two pillars that define a work’s greatness. Elegance (格) refers to the depth and quality of a piece, embodying its refinement and profoundness. Style (調), on the other hand, captures its unique rhythm, flavor, and aesthetic character. These two elements are inseparable, for elegance without style lacks charm, while style without elegance lacks depth and significance. Together, they form the soul of a calligraphic masterpiece.
Every artistic creation—whether it leans toward the refined or the mundane—reflects the inner cultivation and moral integrity of its creator. Particularly in calligraphy, the harmonious blend of elegance and style is a mirror of the artist’s breadth of knowledge and depth of character. A calligrapher’s scholarly cultivation and virtuous practice are indispensable, as they directly influence the work’s final presentation and enduring value.
The piece Lofty Virtue (格高) exemplifies this union of strength and grace. Its bold and vigorous brushstrokes radiate immense inner power while maintaining an outward lightness and agility. The work captures the grandeur of commanding mountains and rivers, coupled with the serene qualities of introspection and tranquility. Strength and flexibility coexist harmoniously, creating a presence that is both majestic and gracefully refined. Floating clouds seem to glide effortlessly, and cranes soar gracefully between pines. This is artistry at its zenith—a realm of understated brilliance, silent dignity, and profound essence.
The calligraphy of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III transcends the boundaries of traditional artistry. Each work embodies the pinnacle of calligraphic achievement, uniting profound thought with unparalleled elegance. The pieces flow naturally, free of constraint, exuding majestic momentum and subtle charm. Their beauty is unadorned yet extraordinary, merging the strengths of various schools into a singular, masterful expression.
If one seeks the soaring of dragons and the dancing of phoenixes, it is present.
If one desires the piercing power to shatter gold and stone, it is evident.
If one yearns for the interplay of gentleness and strength, it is there.
If one wishes for the innocent spirit of a child within the heart of an elder, it is expressed.
If one demands a unique elegance and distinct charm, it is inherent.

Dorje Chang Buddha III’s remarkable panda painting exemplifies a profound fusion of traditional Chinese painting and Western three-dimensional techniques, showcasing a unique mastery that elevates this artwork to an unparalleled realm.

“Cang Ye Pao Hong” (Withered Leaves Scattering Red) is an extraordinary oil painting that belongs to the Thickly Layered Color School, a unique style originated by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. This painting style is renowned for its bold, dynamic strokes and the use of layered, textured color blocks that create a deeply three-dimensional effect. The abstract, surreal use of color brings an unpredictable yet harmonious elegance, transforming the chaotic into a coherent and mesmerizing vision.
The meticulous process behind “Cang Ye Pao Hong” is just as awe-inspiring as the final result. According to the art museum where this work is displayed, the painting took six years to complete, with over 50 layers of paint carefully stacked on top of one another. Each layer was allowed to dry completely before the next was applied, ensuring a rich and vibrant interplay of colors. The outcome is a work of art that exudes an indescribable divine aura, blending both natural beauty and mystical energy.

H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s artistic genius extends far beyond this single painting.

Dorje Chang Buddha III apart from any other artist in history is that He not only founded these distinct schools but developed each to a state of perfection, creating what is known as “The H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III School of Multiple Styles.”
While many renowned artists dedicate their entire lives to mastering one artistic style or theme, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s unparalleled ability to create and perfect sixteen different painting schools is an accomplishment unmatched in art history. “Cang Ye Pao Hong” is a shining example of His profound artistic vision, showcasing a level of creativity and mastery that continues to inspire and astonish art lovers around the world. Through this work, we are invited to witness not just the beauty of nature but the boundless possibilities of artistic expression.
“Scene of Xishuang Banna Life” is a Chinese ink-and-wash painting with a three-dimensional quality reminiscent of oil paintings, created by the renowned artist H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. The moment I laid eyes on it, I felt a profound sense of comfort and tranquility. The painting’s primary hue is light brown, and the varying depths of this color vividly depict the fresh, clear water and misty air weaving between the trees. A few girls are making waves, chatting, and enjoying themselves as they wash clothes by the riverside. The elegant and beautiful banyan trees stand majestically, with cobblestones naturally scattered around them.
The old banyan tree, with its peeling bark and exposed roots, stands as a silent testament to the passage of time. The raised roots extend in all directions, seemingly spreading the pulse of life to distant places, using their vitality to nurture the earth and rivers. The roots nestle against the smooth, round pebbles like inseparable companions. Over time, they have become so intertwined that no one notices whether they are roots or stones, much like an elderly couple who depend on each other and cannot be separated.
Around the tree roots, a misty white space, activated by detailed depictions, brings boundless imagination to people. In the white mist, there is a vast expanse of water, with soft sunlight illuminating the surrounding forest. The endless lakes and rivers nourish the sturdy old roots, supporting them through countless hardships and weathering the elements, ultimately creating a world of their own. The intertwined and winding roots, twisting and coiling across the scene, form the main structure of the composition along with the variously shaped stones, the sculptural massive trunk, and the other responding trees. The sparse leaves hanging from the old tree are adorned in light green, contrasting with the large brown trunk, evoking the philosophical sentiment of “the true essence remains after all embellishments fade, gold emerges after being sifted by great waves.”
Beneath the tree are three graceful women in different postures, enjoying the flowing stream under the water-colored sky. Some are combing their freshly washed hair, some are holding a delicate veil, and some are drawing clear water from the stream.
The banyan tree, the stream, and the sunlight, along with the beautiful women in traditional attire, compose a symphony of southern charm, making one feel as if they can hear the whispers of the gentle breeze: “My enchanting homeland is where my heart belongs…” The setting resembles the sweet childhood memories buried in my heart.
About fifty years ago, my family lived in a small village in the mountains. There were no cars, TVs, toys, phones, or any other modern luxuries. We lived a very simple and modest life. All the mothers washed vegetables and rice in the clean creek and cooked meals. Very often, they washed clothes in the river for the whole family while the kids played in the water, on the trees, or along the riverbanks. School was far away, and we could only go there when we were old enough. But we had the biggest classroom—nature itself. We studied everything we could find: trees, flowers, insects, stones, etc. Twigs were our pens, and tree trunks were our tables. The chirping of the birds and the rushing of the stream were our music. We had physical education class all day long. We went to bed when the sun set. What a simple, happy life!
This is the beautiful and pure spiritual space created by the great artist, H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III. This painting, “Scene of Xishuang Banna Life,” opens a window to another dimension, allowing people to experience the joy of living in a paradise. People in cities increasingly yearn for natural landscapes akin to an earthly utopia. Fortunately, noble artists create pure lands for people’s hearts, showing us wonderful scenery, evoking warm emotions, and deeply touching us.
The pure land in our hearts is like a secluded utopia, free from the noise and disturbances of the mundane world. It carries the dreams of people. When darkness descends, the pure land within can emit a serene fragrance, helping people discard the suffering brought by worries, gently wipe away the dust, and infuse a bit of brightness.
The paintings of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III are like wordless songs, containing endless stories, ancient calls, and boundless compassion for all sentient beings.
Landscape painting is a direct cultural expression of Chinese philosophy. Throughout history, eminent painters such as Dong Yuan, Ju Ran, Zong Bing, Guo Xi, Huang Gongwang, Shi Tao, and Bada Shanren have all used landscape painting to express their extraordinary spiritual realms. Unlike the representational approach of Western painting, landscape painters observe the myriad phenomena of heaven and earth, contemplate the vastness of the universe, and use their hearts to transform their inner landscapes into brushstrokes, imbuing their works with the majestic spirit of nature. Beneath the bold and uninhibited brushstrokes lies the creation of inner beauty, revealing a unified spiritual realm through the language of painting.
The quality of ink and brushwork is paramount in judging the merit of a Chinese painting. Indeed, without mastery of ink and brush, there would be no Chinese painting. The importance of ink and brush in Chinese painting is akin to that of cells in life. From mountains and rivers to figures and forests, all are realized through the use of ink and brush. The concept of bone structure and brush technique refers to the artist’s outlining, texturing, and dotting within the painting.
H.H.Dorje Chang Buddha III landscape paintings in Fanjuan Style exhibit a natural and vigorous brushwork, with bold and powerful strokes. The ink’s varying degrees of wetness and dryness create distinct layers and a lively rhythm in the composition. The rich and vivid atmosphere in the paintings brings joy and resonance to viewers, touching their hearts deeply. The exceptional quality of ink and brushwork in these paintings is truly breathtaking.
Here, let us appreciate some of His Holiness’s landscape paintings in the Fanjuan style, a style created by His Holiness himself.
The “Fanjuan” Style Numerous brush strokes exude an air of scholarly refinement. Despite the complexity of the strokes, there is no sense of disorder; instead, they reflect artistic talent rooted in profound and extensive knowledge.
“Ferrying the Xia River” is an ink-and-wash painting created in 1993 by H.H.Dorje Chang Buddha III. While predominantly utilizing black ink, the brush strokes encapsulate the essence of both painting and calligraphy. Despite the monochromatic palette, the sense of depth and proximity is distinctly rendered. Renowned artist Mr. Huang Binhong once remarked, “Black ink pervades like the vastness of heaven and earth. A single sheet of painting paper can unfurl myriad mountains.” Crafted seemingly effortlessly within a few days, this masterpiece is the culmination of nearly a century of brushwork mastery.
The painting boasts a richly layered appearance, its thick black ink imbued with elegance, resulting in a masterfully conceived and captivating image. Amid this tranquil setting, sounds reverberate from thatched mountain cottages to boats on the water and back again.
In the artwork, a distant view unveils a series of lead-gray mountains, nestled against a lively stream at their base. Rocks, trees, and vegetation seamlessly merge with the mountain range, their tones resembling the clarity of a mountain stream’s deep pool. Though mysterious and profound, the depths of the pool are subtly visible.
The rustic palette, layered landscapes, and deep ink colors infuse the scene with a primordial ambiance. It feels like dawn, with small boats beginning to glide along the cold stream at the mountain’s foot. The entire composition radiates a misty spring ambiance, with the moist spring tide enveloping the scene. At the painting’s base, diminutive figures become the most captivating element. Despite their scale and near indiscernibility, their silhouettes vividly convey distinct personalities and ages, infusing the composition with a human touch. These lively figures serve as the painting’s eyes, enriching the work with a profound aesthetic sensibility. Truly exceptional artists possess a pure and sacred artistic vision.
Clouds, Mountains, and Water Seem To Sing a Song of Autumn
“Clouds, Mountains, and Water Seem To Sing a Song of Autumn” is a landscape painting featuring misty mountain ranges, clear rivers, rushing waterfalls, icy mountain springs, simple farmhouses, scenes of honest fishermen fishing, and humble farmers gathering firewood on the mountainside. Through this artwork, H.H.Dorje Chang Buddha III vividly captures the raw beauty of nature and the diverse lives of the people. It is a rare masterpiece of landscape painting, grand and expansive, with a profound connection to the pulse of life. The bold brushstrokes create a rich and fresh atmosphere, with a lush ink texture. Within the valleys lie a few buildings, nestled among red autumn maples, promising tranquility and serenity. The distant mountains, shrouded in mist and haze, inspire boundless imagination and contemplation.
“Ancient Village at Remote Mountain Spring” is a small-scale painting created by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III in last decade. An artist who saw that painting said, “Although ‘Ancient Village at Remote Mountain Spring’ is as small as only one-fourth of the size of the palm of a hand, one can see curling mist, mountains, and cliffs. It truly is a magnificent landscape scene that expresses a lofty and broad artistic conception. The energy of the cloudy mountains is palpable. Such a tiny painting seems to contain thousands of mountains. It is not merely an ink-wash painting. Rather, it is a vivid landscape scene that is brimming with vitality!”
Painting is the artist’s pursuit of passion, and the artist’s spiritual realm and artistic insight determine the quality of the work. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III once said, “Every artist must tread the path of learning from the past while innovating for the future. Learning from the past embodies tradition, while innovation demands the fusion of Eastern and Western art, philosophy, aesthetics, and literature into a unified whole. This entails grasping the true essence, understanding the inner and outer spirit of the subject, navigating the transitions between the internal and external, the virtual and the real, and infusing rhythm into one’s creations. The result is a work that flows freely, exudes power, and embodies both familiarity and uniqueness. It conceals craftsmanship while remaining wild yet disciplined, possessing a distinct personality and charm. Upon reaching this stage, one can embark on the pursuit of egolessness and the true essence of emptiness and colorlessness. This journey leads to a profound, rich, elevated, and vibrant artistic realm that offers people the joy of beauty. With such mastery, Chinese painting can take a significant leap forward and ultimately stand as a world-class masterpiece.”
Let’s appreciate two masterpieces painted by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III and gain deep insights into innovation rooted in tradition.
Ancient Style Emergence
The landscape painting “Ancient Style Emergence” captivates viewers at first sight with its unique style and transcendent meaning. The simple and unadorned lines depict rugged cliffs, hills, forests, and cottages. Layers of ink washes render the rocks thick and the mountain mists hazy. The clustering mountains and overlapping peaks evoke the ancient charm of Yuan dynasty landscape paintings while also embodying a contemporary innocence. Beneath the moistened ink, clouds flicker and smoke swirls. The tree crowns, mountain shadows, and distant peaks are rendered in a nearly pale ink-like gray-green hue, creating a rich and deep landscape. The sunlit sides of the hills and rocks are lightly tinted with a bright ochre, resembling vermillion, which contrasts vividly with the large areas of gray-green, lending the painting a magnificent and ancient beauty.
The pristine and dust-free atmosphere depicted in the painting stands in stark contrast to the noisy scenes of the mundane world, perhaps serving as a reminder for viewers to awaken to the beauty of life.
The brushstrokes in the painting are highly calligraphic, lively, and modern, diverging significantly from traditional landscape depictions. It represents a landscape of the heart, created purely through brush and ink.
While lacking the specific forms of traditional paintings that one can wander and inhabit, it possesses a more authentic and dynamic charm of modern art, particularly evident in its abstract qualities, which resonate deeply with contemporary audiences.
This landscape painting is created by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, characterized by its straightforward and lively brushwork, as well as its modern sensibility.
Setting Sail to the East
“Setting Sail to the East,” this painting employs thirsty brush and light ink, with free and bold strokes, abandoning the meticulousness of carving. Horizontal and vertical brushstrokes appear to be dragging mud and water, yet they possess the strength to carry a heavy weight. The brushwork is seasoned and heavy, yet balanced between reality and illusion.
In the foreground, there is a poetic dense willow forest, where two stubborn rocks seem to be “nodding” to each other, engaged in intimate conversation, perhaps narrating the endless past and future of the mundane world. In the middle ground, there are two simple small boats, leisurely passing through the river, seemingly minimalist yet imbuing the scene with a rich humanistic atmosphere. In the distance, distant mountains are depicted with dry brush and thirsty ink, subtly rendered with a watery light ochre, evoking the elegant beauty of classical Chinese paintings, reminiscent of the dry autumn wind and the moist spring rain, yet with a strong modern painting atmosphere.
This is a masterpiece of landscape painting with profound underlying themes and innovative imagery. Its lofty style, deep meaning, grand momentum, and charming spirit all stem from H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III’s profound philosophical thoughts and masterful brushwork. The inscription on the painting reads: “Drawing on tradition for innovation, entering the wonderful realm of the written scroll.” The brushwork is arranged in a skillful and coherent manner, serving as the backbone of the painting and the soul of the entire composition.
The term “vivid charm” embodies the artistic realm of the calligrapher and painter. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III‘s landscape painting art transcends the ordinary and mundane, achieving a level of artistry that is beyond compare, with a spiritual realm that has become a benchmark in contemporary painting art.
Yun Sculpture, a groundbreaking form of art devised by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III for the global audience, stands unmatched in the annals of history. Since its inception, the world has borne witness to an artistic phenomenon that defies replication. Observers, captivated by the works of H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, often find themselves in awe, expressing sentiments from the depths of their hearts: “This is a treasure bestowed upon the world by a divine force,” “Sacred artifacts from the Buddha’s Pure Land,” “Captivating the soul with its unparalleled beauty,” and “Since the advent of Yun Sculpture, humanity’s jewelry pales in comparison, like stars around the bright moon—dim and lackluster.” Indeed, when contrasted with the most finely carved jade and opulent stone sculptures, the latter suddenly lose their luster and grandeur, revealing an insurmountable gap.
Yun Sculpture boasts several distinctive characteristics:
Firstly, these sculptures exude a multidimensional sense of space, intricately crafted with unparalleled complexity, displaying endless variations.
Secondly, Yun Sculptures burst forth in rich and vibrant colors, presenting scenes so dreamlike and fantastical that they remain unseen in this world.
Thirdly, many Yun Sculptures possess a sacred and mysterious quality that transcends ordinary comprehension, exemplified by pieces such as “Mysterious Boulder with Mist.” In these sculptures, a mysterious mist gracefully floats among intricately carved, seemingly shifting, and intriguingly interconnected hanging rock formations. Why are such pieces referred to as sculptures containing mysterious mist? The answer lies in the enigmatic and beautiful scenes depicted within these sculptures—a dance of auspicious mist swirling amid hanging rock formations, creating an ethereal ambiance.
Mysterious Boulder with Mist

The shift from darkness to light is not merely a natural phenomenon but also signifies the awakening and transformation of human thought and consciousness. By sincerely experiencing this Yun Sculpture piece inspired by the dawn, you will feel the powerful energy embedded within.

Therefore, the term “tree hollow” now symbolizes the secrets hidden deep within. Psychologists propose that people need to learn to confide, to release their emotions. This artwork provides us with a window to express the unspeakable depths of our hearts, offering a means to alleviate stress through sharing.
A Rock of Horizontal Charm

At first glance, this artwork appears to be an oil painting. Upon closer observation, it evokes astonishment. It is not merely a flat painting but more akin to a lifelike redwood fossil.
Every texture is distinctly visible, and every detail is vividly realistic. H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, with the stroke of a brush, captures the original form of the redwood in the guise of a fossil, rendering this piece of art even more mysterious and noble.
This artwork employs strong color contrasts, making bright colors even more vibrant and dark colors even deeper.
