印度比爾鹿野學院(Deer Park Institude),舊宗薩佛學院(the Old Dzongsar Institude)入口處的壁畫,畫中祈禱文為宗薩蔣揚欽哲旺波(Dzongsar Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo)所造,三幅分別為向釋迦牟尼佛,薩迦班智達,龍欽巴尊者的祈禱文。原文見:http://www.himalayanart.org/news/archives.cfm/date/2009/3

These three images are large mural paintings at the entrance to the Deer Park Institute temple in Bir, India (the old Dzongsar Institute). They are diagrammatic prayers intended to be read in any direction and still retain their meaning. Creating visually pleasing depictions of prayers is an old Indian tradition that found its way to Tibet and the Himalayas through the Buddhist migration northward. These particular prayers were composed by Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo in the 19th century. At the top is a Shakyamuni Buddha prayer followed by Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyaltsen and finally Longchen Rabjampa at the bottom. The Shakyamuni and Sapan are on the left of the entrance and the Longchenpa on the right accompanied by a sword and lotus motif with two double headed birds (not shown here). All of these images will be uploaded to the HAR database shortly.
