Sakya Muni Buddha Gaya Temple: Sakyamuni Buddha

釋迦牟尼菩提伽耶寺

新加坡

譯名為Sakya Muni Buddha Gaya Temple,又稱千光寺。位於新加坡小印度跑馬埔路(Race Course Road, Little India)。一九三一年,泰國僧人巫迪薩薩拉(Vutthisasara)所建。該寺為緬甸式寺廟,大殿供奉一尊高15公尺,重達300公噸的大佛,大佛背光飾數百盞燈,故寺又稱千光寺。
 該寺占地面積約2,300平方公尺。主殿為穹窿頂,前出抱廈,抱廈高二層,以山牆為正面。山牆上浮雕釋迦牟尼佛結跏趺坐於蓮座上。大門正中上方為一尊佛立像,兩旁有緬甸神祇守衛。殿內後方有一尊臥佛,臥佛底部布滿佛傳故事彩繪。寺中還保留許多巫迪薩薩拉所留下的文物,其中有佛陀悟道菩提樹皮、印度神祇象頭神像以及於斯里蘭卡亞當峰(Adam's Peak)出土,形似佛足印的木塊。
