Gradually the amount of grain in the tall glass jar decreased until the birds had to reach far into the jar, often unceremoniously losing their balance in the process, in order to get the food. The Master, shown here feeding the birds from a nearly empty jar, gave a 24-character calligraphy lesson every evening during the year l969. He wrote out the
Shurangama Sutra and combined many learning potentials into that single lesson, including stroke orders for Chinese characters, techniques of writing brush calligraphy, simple explanations of each passage of text, and development of disciples’ memorization skills.
