Aurangabad Cave 3 (plan)

奧蘭加巴德石窟第3窟

印度馬哈拉施特拉邦奧蘭加巴德

位於奧蘭加巴德石窟(Aurangabad Caves)西區,為此區最大、最重要的洞窟。開鑿於笈多王朝(約320~550)後期,約六世紀中葉。為後期窟中最早營造的洞窟,在形制上是唯一與阿旃陀石窟後期毗訶羅窟(vihara)相似者。
 該窟主要有門廊、大廳、過廳及佛龕。門廊以列柱支撐,兩端闢有一方形室。大廳平面呈方形,中央有十二根列柱環立,二側壁各鑿三窟室。大廳正壁鑿過廳,後方為佛龕。佛龕主尊佛像兩旁各雕合掌的男女信眾六、七人,壁上浮雕二龍王,護持坐於蓮花上的佛陀。大廳列柱浮雕華麗,柱子刻有繁縟的紋飾,柱頭仿木構雀替飾密特那(Mithuna)像,另有須陀素彌王本生圖;上方仿梁枋亦布滿浮雕,皆為該窟的特色。
