When you practice the standard style of calligraphy, the style used in everyday life, or the cursive, implicating yourself entirely in the movement as it appears on the sheet of paper and you go as far as rapture, you will feel that your mind is brimming over with energy and if then you undertake to compose a poem or write a piece of prose, your ideas will easily set themselves out and the text will flow as if driven by its own force. This is why calligraphy furthers creative imagination and the elaboration of ideas.
