Mujo Shoson (Chinese: Wushang Xingzun) was a talented calligrapher and one of the Buddhist monks of the Obaku sect who came to Japan with Ingen Ryuki in 1654. The universal character of Buddhism is exemplified in this Chinese text, translated as:
"Benefits [of the faith] distributed among the myriad nations."

Translation by Fumiko E. Cranston from Extraordinary Persons, Vol. 1 (1999), p. 222.
