    An introduction

    A seamless blend of the contemporary and the immutable ancient tradition meets bold design in the work of Tashi Mannox, celebrated Tibetan Calligrapher.

    One of the world’s foremost contemporary Tibetan calligraphers, Dharma Artist Tashi Mannox innovates in technique and concepts firmly rooted in the integrity of the ancient tradition.

    Two decades spent as a monk of the Kagyu order inform his practice: his calligraphy and iconography. While technically and aesthetically compelling, Tashi’s work also acts to illuminate ancient Buddhist wisdoms.

    ༄།  གང་གི་སོར་རྩེ་ལས་འཁྲུངས་འཕྲུལ་གྱི་ཡི་གེ་གཟུགས། །
    སྐྱེ་དགུའི་ཡིད་དབང་འཕྲོག་པས་ཐར་པའི་ལམ་དུ་འཁྲིད། །
    སློབ་དཔོན་ཐོན་མིའི་དབྱངས་གསལ་འཛིན་སྐྱོང་སྤེལ་གསུམ་ཕྱིར། །
    གསར་གཏོད་རྣམ་དཔྱོད་རྩལ་ལས་མཛེས་པའི་ཡིག་གཟུགས་བཞེངས། །

    ཆོས་ཀྱི་སྒྱུ་རྩལ་པ་ཆེན་པོ་བཀྲ་ཤིས་མན་ནོག་སིའི་ཡིག་གཟུགས་སློབ་ཁྲིད་ཉན་ཞོར་དུ་ཡོན་ཏན་གཟེངས་སུ་བསྟོད་པའི་ཚིགས་སུ་བཅད་པ་འདི་ཨ་རིའི་བློ་བཟང་གིས་བྲིས་པ་དགེའོ།།

    ༄། Born from the tips of your fingers, mystical letter forms
    Capture the hearts of beings, leading them on the path to liberation.
    To preserve and uphold Minister *Thönmi’s literary tradition,
    You manifest beautiful Calligraphy from the creative potential of the intellect.

    This verse was composed by Lowell Cook in homage to the great Dharma artist Tashi Mannox while listening to one of his calligraphy lectures. May goodness abound!
