甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土

甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土。有關熾盛光佛之經典,有《熾盛光大威德消災吉祥陀羅尼經》又稱《大威德消災吉祥陀羅尼經》、《消災吉祥經》,唐代(618~907)不空譯,其同本異譯者為《佛說大威德金輪佛頂熾盛光如來消除一切災難陀羅尼經》,譯者不詳。此經闡述在清淨處設道場,持誦熾盛光陀羅尼,能袪金、木、水、火、土等妖邪星宿之災。
 圖中熾盛光佛坐於車上,在五行星簇擁下向前而行。佛身後放射出萬丈光芒,頂上懸華蓋;華蓋綴飾搖曳,似表現行進的動感。佛左手置於腹前,右手結印;身前供案上置香爐。
 佛身旁有五行星環繞,自圖右下角起,順時針方向依序為火耀星,戴驢冠,逆髮,四臂持武器;金耀星,女像,戴雄雞冠,持琵琶,背對觀者;土耀星,婆羅門形象,戴牛冠,上身斜披絡腋,左手拉牛車之繩,右手執錫杖;木耀星,文官形象,戴豬冠,捧花盤,正面而立;水耀星,女像,戴猴冠,左手握紙卷,右手執筆。
 全圖設色以紅色為主,人物足下繪有卷雲。
