Homage to Amitabha Buddha

White-character square seal

南無阿彌陀佛 鄧散木

中國

「南無阿彌陀佛」,又作六字名號,是皈依阿彌陀佛之意。稱念六字名號,願生西方淨土,乃東晉(317~420)廬山慧遠等所倡,當時非純粹稱名往生,乃藉稱名而便於專注、觀想而念佛。
 此印六字三行,每行二字,平均排列。全印上疏下密,字體結構橫細直粗,分朱布白,以白取勝。「阿」、「陀」二字左邊的「阜」旁,取法籀體,令印面上半部簡潔,與下半部「無」、「彌」、「佛」三字繁密呼應,形成紅白強烈對比,適度破邊,彰顯刀法雄渾剛健。
 鄧散木原名菊初,學名士傑,後更名鐵,字散木,以字行;號鈍鐵、糞翁,別號蘆中人、無恙、無外居士、一足等。上海人。擅篆刻、書法及詩詞。一生刻印五千餘方,於篆刻藝術傳承貢獻卓越。
