Shoushan Stone “Dust Breaking Scholar” Seal

[Shoushan Stone “Dust-breaking Scholar” Seal]

“Dust-breaking Scholar” Seal, Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (Yongzheng was the emperor), Shoushan Stone, Guangsu Square Seal, Chinese Seal. The face is 1.7cm square and the height is 2.7cm
This seal was made during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng. This seal is used together with “Prince Yong’s treasure” and is stamped on the imperial calligraphy. Yongzheng has enjoyed reading Buddhist classics since he was a boy, and he has been discussing with monks since he became an adult. He called himself a “Buddhist monk who broke the dust”, indicating that he did not become a monk, but practiced Buddhism at home. The name “Breaking the Dust” has been used at least since the 55th year of Kangxi’s reign (1716), because there was a sentence “Breaking the Dust of King Yong” in the book given to his friend Ma Dutong at that time, which can be used as a proof. This seal was no longer used after Emperor Yongzheng ascended the throne
