夏魯寺須摩提女因緣圖

中國

位於夏魯寺(zhwa lu dgon pa)夏魯拉康第二層般若佛母殿南側迴廊南壁。十四世紀作品。高200公分,長1,100公分,分上下二層。據《須摩提女經》記載,舍衛國須摩提女自小篤信佛教,婚配滿富城外道滿財之子,見夫家為外道所逼,遂登樓焚香,請佛赴齋說法;佛感其虔敬,引領眾多弟子自祇園精舍赴齋、講經說法,致使外道、舍衛國人民與滿財全家,皈依佛門。
 此圖以連環圖方式呈現,畫面依序表現滿財大辦酒筵,外道粗鄙,身形裸露,隨處可見;須摩提女登樓焚香請佛。乾荼負釜先行,十大弟子等兀自前往或簇擁同行,各乘坐騎赴會,或乘象、獅、馬與牛車等,或飛行、乘雲、端坐蓮花、立於琉璃山等,各盡其妙;釋迦牟尼佛乘雲,徐徐前往。釋迦牟尼佛與弟子等眾,來到滿財家中,現神通力折服外道;佛為滿富城外道說法,使其皈依佛門。
 壁畫故事的始末恰如其分的於巨幅空間中展現,各畫面均墨書藏文題記予以說明。人物造型嚴謹,神韻兼備,數幅世俗生活的景象應為藏地人民的生活寫實,刻劃生動,和諧規整。
