横井明堂 Yokoi Myodo Daitoku-ji Japanese Zen art kakejiku kakemono wall hanging scroll Tea Ceremony / 知足 Chisoku with Box RD918
知足 Chisoku
知 means to know, 足 means to be enough, In short, knowing contentment.
横井明堂 Yokoi Myodo
He was the former head priest of Nanshuji Temple of the Daitokuji School Nanshuji Temple in Sakai City, Osaka Prefecture, Japan.
with signature 'Zendaitoku Syourin Myodo' 前大徳 少林 明堂 and seal 'Syourin' 少林
This hanging scroll features the Zen phrase “Chisoku” (知足)—“Knowing sufficiency”—expressed in bold calligraphy by Yokoi Myodo, a respected Zen master affiliated with Daitoku-ji, one of Kyoto’s most prominent Zen temples. The concept of chisoku reflects a core tenet of Zen philosophy: that true contentment arises not from desire, but from recognizing and appreciating what one already has. Rendered with confident brushwork and spiritual clarity, the character embodies both aesthetic strength and contemplative depth. The scroll is mounted in traditional textile borders and comes with a wooden storage box, ensuring careful preservation. Ideal for tea ceremony settings or interior display, this piece offers a quiet yet powerful presence—an invitation to reflect on simplicity, gratitude, and the essence of Zen.
