烏德耶吉里遺址胎藏界大日如來坐像

印度

位於印度奧里薩邦(Orissa)烏德耶吉里遺址(Udayagiri)。該遺址近年發掘出一座磚砌覆鉢大塔,塔身四面嵌巨幅飾板,浮雕密教造像。此像置於塔身北面,中央主尊大日如來坐像比例特大,左右各侍立一菩薩,上端配置飛天,主尊蓮座根莖由二龍王支撐。
 大日如來綰高髻,束冠帶,數綹長髮披於雙肩。臉形方圓,眉纖長,雙目垂視,流露冥想的神情,鼻和嘴稍有磨損。通肩袈裟貼體,顯露身軀健壯結實。手作禪定印,結跏趺坐於蓮座上。下方粗大的蓮莖兩側為相對的二龍王,頭冠飾五龍頭,一腿豎起一腿盤屈而坐,各伸出一手扶蓮莖。根莖部分另生出二莖蓮花,繞過主尊蓮座兩端向上伸展,承托脇侍菩薩。
 如來右脇侍為文殊菩薩,右手下垂執拂子,左手舉於胸側握蓮花,上供奉經書。左脇侍為除蓋障菩薩,右手屈舉執拂子,左手垂於身側握長莖蓮花,上供奉寶珠。二菩薩皆採三屈式立姿,姿態對稱,身體傾向主尊;上半身裝飾及聖線樣式相似,髮型卻各具變化。菩薩上方有執花環的飛天,身軀彎作「U」形,乘雲翱翔於上。
 此塔東、南、西面分別浮雕施觸地印的阿●(L)佛、作與願印的寶生佛及結禪定印的阿彌陀佛,皆為金剛界佛坐像,形成金剛界和胎藏界佛及八菩薩的混合配置。
