Sikri: Life of the Buddha - Sumagadha’s Invitation

須摩提女因緣圖

巴基斯坦俾路支省西克里出土

巴基斯坦俾路支省西克里(Sikri, Balochistan)出土。事見《增一阿含經》卷二十二,古印度舍衛城須達長者之女須摩提信佛,被婚配於滿富城滿財長者之子。彼地人信仰外道,凡嫁至滿富城之新婦,須供養、禮拜六千裸形外道。須摩提女拒絕不從,並虔心禮佛,遙請佛陀蒞臨城內說法以度化外道。當佛陀與諸弟子至滿富城時,為了度化城中人民,佛陀率弟子現種種神變,終使眾人皈依佛教。
 該故事題材在犍陀羅浮雕作品中較為少見。畫面上釋迦牟尼佛立於中央,頸部有修補痕跡。佛陀左側,表現拒絕禮拜外道的須摩提女,身形健美;屋內有忿怒的裸形外道,高樓之上則為憂愁的滿財長者和焚香請佛的須摩提女。佛陀右下方,須摩提女虔心跪拜,頭面禮足。佛右側表現滿富城中民眾及外道,見佛與眾弟子現神變,個個表示驚歎,雙手合十禮拜的情景。
