Calligraphy may be seen to emanate from the seed-syllable, the bijakshara; through sound nada made visible; speech made immutable in writing through the letters aksharas, finding aesthetic expression." "From the primordial point bindu - the very core and centre of activity - flow the line rekha and the curve, in innumerable variations. Being drawn as picitures, they have been abbreviated to pictograms, found expression as ideograms, rebus, syllabic and phonetic writing, and as the alphabet." R.K.
