A large seal in our #QPArchive reads:

同冷戊辰年中伏初日在洞南衛源軍次
因時時慕益友仁風偶假聖人之言擬意
三三建九圖章用玩石鳩工雕斲印成懸
掛座右讀之爲觧其圖有言孔子曰益者
君子有三樂有三畏有九思所謂礼知意
也余嘗試讀之誠學則以此三者之旨妄
做恩德銘誌此之謂感佩懼也亦斯可以
舒吾生成永感之念云爾

The 3 joys, 3 fears, and 9 thoughts
would seem to point to Confucius 16:5¿ and 16:10¿

🙏Help with a HiFi Tr. (beyond AI gist)🙏

A JP Calligraphy scroll from our #QPArchive

Dated 昭和丙申 1956

Signed/seal 道契龍恩 Doki Ryuon
¿ seems more of a title than a name ?

Text: Hannya Shingyo or Heart Sutra
Calligraphy is reminiscent of maruhon 丸本 (theater reciter's libretto) style

(Help with id & large round (temple ¿) seal welcome 🙏)

Ex our #QPArchive :
A miniature Japanese collage of a scholars' table ...
Should really try to decipher the calligraphy ...
Although, at times, mysterious winds are best left whirling through the mind
