Prophecy of Dipamkara Buddha

Gray schist

燃燈佛授記圖

巴基斯坦

此圖浮雕為塔形嵌板,上方為尖拱形,周邊以典雅的莨苕葉和三角鋸齒、菱形紋等幾何圖案分為三層雕飾,刻劃燃燈佛授記圖。屬犍陀羅裝飾風格。
 接近方形的底層描寫燃燈佛為儒童授記的故事。釋迦牟尼佛過去世曾為儒童,聞燃燈佛將入城,即向一女子買花供佛,又將自己的頭髮鋪於泥地讓佛陀踐踏通行,因虔誠供養,故燃燈佛為其授記,預言未來當得成佛,號釋迦牟尼。畫面中央為燃燈佛,身形較大。賣花女位於畫面右端,持花捧瓶,儒童立於佛前,手拿花束仰望佛陀,其上方又見儒童升至空中合十。燃燈佛後方有持金剛杵護法的天神和佛弟子。圖上部左右露台欄杆上各露出三人頭部,為儒童受記發出讚歎。
 浮雕中、上層皆刻佛三尊像,由坐佛禪定和二脇侍立像組成。中層兩側外間又各有一身胡跪合掌禮拜的天人。上層尖拱形頂之上雕一尊坐佛,台座形狀為半圓形的半朵蓮花。中上層外緣裝飾類似鸚鵡的對鳥。浮雕底部鐫刻銘文。
