佛絵師 荒木 Juro 香珠
佛の画
仏画制作は佛の御心や教えを筆や紙などをご縁として、私たちの中に移す願い祈りの「行」です。
仏線をたどり、墨で線を描き彩色していく…
それは一本の描線を縁として図画を書き仏様と仏縁を結ぶはじまりです。
清浄なる墨入れの時を期に、仏様と自己の内なる仏性（神の宮）とが出逢います。
それは仏様の光、宇宙初源の光、果てることのない世界と私とがひとつであると実感する時と言えます。
私の描いた仏画に触れられた方々が神仏の存在を知り、
また、より身近に感じて頂けたら、この上ない幸せなことはありません。

The Way of Buddha, Painting of Buddha
I believe Buddhist painting is an act of prayer in which the mind and the teachings of the Buddha are connected to us through brush and paper.
Following the lines of the Buddha, carefully drawing lines in ink and coloring within them…
This is the beginning of connecting with the Buddha: draw a picture with a single line as the border.
When I draw lines in ink which I think of it as a time of purification, the Buddha and my inner Buddhist nature (the Divine Palace) encounter each other.
This is the time when I realize that I am one with the light of the Buddha, the light of the original source of the universe, and the world that never ends.
Nothing would make me happier than people who come into contact with my paintings could learn about the existence of God and Buddha, and feel God and Buddha in the world around them.
