不空和尚碑 徐浩
中國
全稱《唐大興善寺故大德大辯正廣智三藏和尚碑銘并序》。嚴郢撰文，徐浩書。此碑為弟子們為紀念先師不空和尚的行誼，立碑於長安（今陝西西安）大興善寺。不空和尚為唐代（618～907）譯經家、密教付法第六祖；師事金剛智，後遵師遺命，往印度求法，回國後深受唐玄宗（712～756在位）、肅宗（756～762在位）、代宗（762～779在位）等禮遇，與善無畏、金剛智並稱開元三大士。全文計二十四行，滿行四十八字。碑身中部有折斷裂痕，文字有殘缺。北宋元祐五年（1090），移至陝西西安碑林。
徐浩字季海。唐代書法家。越州（今浙江紹興）人。宰相張九齡之外甥。書法傳自其父徐嶠，書風豐滿圓融而有沉雄氣度，常應佛寺之請寫經書碑。此碑筆畫圓勁厚重，勻整端嚴，雄健爽利；結體微扁而開張，穩重而結實。徐氏碑刻存世者鮮少，此碑是其晚年楷書的代表作。
參考釋文：遣中謁者齎 祝文祖／以舍利起塔於舊居寺院和／迹則時成佛之速應聲儲祉／佛前受瑜伽最上乘義後數／和尚和尚又西遊天竺師子／中道迎善氣登禮皆答福應／鼓駭以定力對之未移晷而／自成童至于晚暮常飾共具／者後學升堂誦說有法者非
