I would go to a friend's hospital to have blood drawn, collect it in a test tube, and bring it back to the studio in an ice bucket. While continuously chanting "Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva," I would begin a walking meditation practice. First, I'd add water to an inkstone and grind cinnabar ink sticks, then mix cinnabar powder evenly with blood and water. As needed, I'd dip a brush into the mixture to achieve the appropriate consistency, then start drawing circles horizontally from the top left of the paper to the right. Upon reaching the right edge, I'd move down one line and continue drawing from right to left, repeating this back-and-forth "pen walking" until the entire sheet of paper was filled. The entire process involved continuously chanting the Bodhisattva's name.
This walking meditation, or jingxing, was performed by chanting the name, using a brush to draw with blood and cinnabar. My eyes observed the brushstrokes, my mouth recited the Bodhisattva's name, and my heart respectfully submitted to the Bodhisattva's vows and practice.
到朋友醫院抽血，裝入試管，以冰桶帶回工作室。持續誦唸「南無地藏王菩薩」，開始經行，先在硯台裡加水研磨硃砂墨條，還將硃砂粉與血液、水調勻，視情況以毛筆沾調適當濃度的顏料，自紙張的左上方開始向右水平走畫圓圈，走至右邊盡頭時，下降一格，自右向左走，如此左右來回走筆，直到走滿紙張為止。整個過程持續誦唸皈依地藏王菩薩。
這裡的經行或行禪，是以持名號、毛筆走畫血液、硃砂進行的。眼，看著走筆的筆觸；口，唸著皈依菩薩的聲音；心，敬伏皈依菩薩的行願。
