This scroll was drawn in March of 1978 (53rd year of the Showa era).
There are few folds, spots and stains.
As a whole, the condition of this scroll is good.
A Zen phrase is drawn powerfully using Sumi black ink and Fude Japanese
brush.
It is too difficult to describe the meaning of the phrase in a single word,
though, in rough translation, it means that "Every thing in this world
is nothing so that you should not attach your mind to anything".
