雙神變像

阿富汗帕爾旺省貝格拉姆派特瓦佛寺遺址出土

阿富汗帕爾旺省貝格拉姆(Bagram, Parwan)派特瓦(Paitava)佛寺遺址出土,貝格拉姆即為迦畢試(Kapisa)古城。此像係佛陀為教化世人,在舍衛國與外道競技鬥法的神變造像。佛陀騰於虛空,肩部出現熊熊的火焰,腳下湧出汩汩的流水,乃釋迦牟尼佛所顯現的「身上出火,身下出水」雙神變神通。
 佛陀頭光上部損毀,著通肩袈裟,左手握衣角,右手抬起施無畏印,掌心刻有法輪。肩部兩側各有一尊較小的佛像,結跏趺坐,手結禪定印,其肩部亦有火焰;坐佛下方的聯珠紋方框內,右側似是護法金剛,左側框內似為豐饒女神,手中捧的錐形物可能為稻穗或花束。造像足下兩端雕二身形小巧的人物,盤坐合十,仰望佛陀,禮拜供養。
 此雙神變像正面構圖,左右對稱,雕刻手法與法國吉美國立亞洲藝術博物館藏的雙神變像極為雷同。
