Sutra copying experience
Shakyo is the act of carefully copying sutras, which contain Buddhist teachings, character by character. By taking up a brush in a quiet space and copying sutras with all your heart, you will naturally calm your mind, increase your concentration, and your handwriting will become beautiful and well-organized. It is like a time of deep meditation where you can connect with the teachings of Buddha. Why not get away from your busy daily life and experience a special moment surrounded by silence?
