七言聯句 釋星雲
中國
星雲大師八十六歲時書。此聯語出自禪宗《嘉泰普燈錄》卷十八，隱喻眾生皆有佛性，斷除無明則佛性現前。對聯每幅高137公分，寬35.5公分，為大師的「一筆字」創作之一。大師自一九八○年代始，常以翰墨廣結善緣，八十四歲後因視力模糊，揮毫模式轉以心眼布局，且不論所書字數多寡，皆一筆完成，故自稱「一筆字」書法。
此作用筆樸厚，筆畫氣力直送至末端，不拘於鋒勢使轉的小節，內力外鑠，不只有碑學之樸厚，更具顯其不衫不履、自有風度的氣象。下聯則力氣更為勁厚，筆意短而轉折出線質的萬鈞之力，與上聯相對，一靜一動，更添其美學上的韻致。
星雲大師法名悟徹，號今覺、星雲。臨濟宗第四十八代傳人，臺灣高雄佛光山寺開山宗長，於佛教文化藝術、教育人才、慈善救濟、淨化共修等方面之發展與推廣卓有建樹。
