Life of the Buddha - Conversion of the Three Kasyapa Brothers

Schist

佛陀度化三迦葉圖

巴基斯坦

此浮雕題材事見《佛本行集經》卷四十〈迦葉三兄弟品〉。佛陀於鹿野苑初轉法輪後,便前往優樓頻螺村拜訪婆羅門迦葉三兄弟。三人原係事火外道,分別有徒眾五百、三百、二百,因受佛陀教化,與千名徒眾隨佛出家,為佛教史上教團之開端。
 畫面中優樓頻螺迦葉滿臉鬍鬚,頭上結髮髻,身纏腰布,為典型婆羅門修行者的裝扮。迦葉坐於草廬內,見佛陀立於面前,表情又驚又喜,即刻手撐座椅,扶杖,作起身狀。迦葉前面擺置拜火教的火壇。佛陀低頭俯視迦葉,慈祥地張開雙臂,執金剛神緊隨於後。另一位拜火教迦葉的弟子(或是另一位迦葉弟弟),好奇地立於屋後探視。
