Hemis Monastery: Wheel of Rebirth

嘿密寺六道輪迴圖

印度

位於印度拉達克(Ladakh)嘿密寺(Hemis Gompa)殿堂。六道輪迴圖常見於藏傳佛教壁畫與唐卡之中,旨在表達佛教因果報應觀。
 此六道輪迴圖之輪緣由戴五骷髏冠、三眼圓睜的閻摩以口和四肢緊扣。輪軸中央有一尊四臂觀音,觀音四周圍繞藏文觀音菩薩六字明咒,呈花瓣形;其外側環繞象徵貪、瞋、癡三毒的公雞、蛇與豬,寓意三毒為生死輪迴之根本,造作不同,果報各異。
 輪圈以輻條劃分成六個區塊,自最上方始,順時針依次描繪天道,享人天福報;阿修羅道,好戰鬥勝;餓鬼道,頸細如針,腹大如鼓;地獄道,受諸刑罰,周而復始;畜生道,任人驅役,不勝勞苦;人道,此領域最為殊勝,因人類具有擇善而行的能力。此六道畫面中皆立有一佛。
 壁畫下端雖略顯斑剝,但整體保存良好,人物輪廓鮮明,色彩豐富明麗,呈現十七世紀印度藏傳寺院壁畫風格。
