 è mó gǒu
Devil Dog Scroll

惡魔狗 is Devil Dog, the nickname of Marines in Chinese.

Overcome the Devil

 xiáng mó
 gou ma
Overcome the Devil Scroll

降魔 means to overcome the Devil, Satan, Demons, or Evil.

There are many ways to translate this, including conquering the devil, evil spirits, evil influences, or someone who habitually performs negative/evil acts.

In the Buddhist context, it means to overcome demons, e.g., as the Buddha did at his enlightenment.

Repel Evil / Expel the Devil

 qū mó
Repel Evil / Expel the Devil Scroll

驅魔 is the way you would write a sign or symbol to repel the devil or drive away evil in Chinese.

Daredevil Warrior / Soul of a Warrior

 oni mu sha
Daredevil Warrior / Soul of a Warrior Scroll

鬼武者 is an unusual title that can be translated two ways, daredevil warrior or demon warrior.

The most common is probably the daredevil warrior. However, the first character means demon, ghost, or soul of the departed. Therefore, it can mean the soul of a warrior or a demon warrior.


This title is Japanese only, and should not be used if your audience is Chinese.

 akuma
Akuma Scroll

悪魔 is a Japanese word that means Devil, Demon, or Satan.

悪魔 is also the English/Japanese title for a character in Street Fighter.


豪
鬼
Note: In Japan, the Street Fighter is known as Gouki or Goki. This sort of means grand ghost, or great spirit. If you want this instead of the Akuma title, just click on the Goki Kanji to the right.

Evil Cause, Evil Result

Meaning: You reap what you sow

 akuin akka
Evil Cause, Evil Result Scroll

悪因悪果 is a Japanese proverb that means “Evil cause, evil effect” or “Bad causes bring bad results.”

The English equivalent is probably, “Sow evil and reap evil” or more commonly, “You reap what you sow.”

Note: 悪因悪果 is also considered to be a Buddhist phrase encompassing the idea of karmic retribution.

Fear No Evil

 bú pà xié è
Fear No Evil Scroll

不怕邪惡 literally means “no fear of evil” in Chinese.

Chinese grammar and word order are a little different than English. 不怕邪惡 is the best way to write something that means “fear no evil” in Chinese.

The first character means “not,” “don't” or “no.”
The second means “fear.”
The last two mean “evil” but can also be translated as sinister, vicious, wickedness, or just “bad.”

Good and Evil

 zenakufuni
Good and Evil Scroll

善悪不二 is a Japanese Buddhist expression that states, “Good [and] evil [are], not two [separate things].”

A more natural way to express this in English is, “Good and evil are but two faces of the same coin.”

Distinguish Good and Evil

 zhāng shàn dàn è
Distinguish Good and Evil Scroll

彰善癉惡 is a Chinese proverb that means “distinguish good and evil,” “uphold virtue and condemn evil,” “praise good and expose vice,” or “uphold good condemn evil.”

Fear No Evil

 aku o osore nai
Fear No Evil Scroll

悪を恐れない is “Fear No Evil” in Japanese.

Japanese grammar and phrase construction is different than English, so this literally reads, “Evil Fear Not.”

The “evil” Kanji can also be translated as “wickedness.”


Note: Because this selection contains some special Japanese Hiragana characters, it should be written by a Japanese calligrapher.

All of our calligraphy wall scrolls are handmade.

When the calligrapher finishes creating your artwork, it is taken to my art mounting workshop in Beijing where a wall scroll is made by hand from a combination of silk, rice paper, and wood.
After we create your wall scroll, it takes at least two weeks for air mail delivery from Beijing to you.

Allow a few weeks for delivery. Rush service speeds it up by a week or two for $10!

When you select your calligraphy, you'll be taken to another page where you can choose various custom options.

single-character wall scroll.
We also offer custom wall scrolls in small, medium, and an even-larger jumbo size.

A professional Chinese Calligrapher

Professional calligraphers are getting to be hard to find these days.
Instead of drawing characters by hand, the new generation in China merely type roman letters into their computer keyboards and pick the character that they want from a list that pops up.

There is some fear that true Chinese calligraphy may become a lost art in the coming years. Many art institutes in China are now promoting calligraphy programs in hopes of keeping this unique form of art alive.

Trying to learn Chinese calligrapher - a futile effort

Even with the teachings of a top-ranked calligrapher in China, my calligraphy will never be good enough to sell. I will leave that to the experts.

A high-ranked Chinese master calligrapher that I met in Zhongwei

The same calligrapher who gave me those lessons also attracted a crowd of thousands and a TV crew as he created characters over 6-feet high. He happens to be ranked as one of the top 100 calligraphers in all of China. He is also one of very few that would actually attempt such a feat.
