Source: Mandala Texts: Yikzo: The Art of CalligraphyJoyik (མགྱོགས་ཡིག་) refers to a script used in Bhutan.—The traditional Bhutanese literati talk about the 360 different kinds of scripts based on the lists of scripts mentioned in Buddhist texts received from India. However, only a few scripts are used in Bhutanese calligraphic tradition. [...] The Joyik (མགྱོགས་ཡིག་) script, which is considered to be the national script and claimed by some traditional scholars to have existed in Bhutan since the 8th century is used for correspondences and informal writing. [...] Young people learn to write the script by following the exact proportions of the strokes using an exemplar. The exemplar is often a writing by someone who has good handwriting and knows the dimensions and proportions of the strokes.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
