内容説明
This volume represents the work done by the author as a Government Research Scholar in Iconography from 1920-1924. It is a comprehensive work on the Buddhist Iconography mainly based on a Sanskrit text prepared from the seven recessions of the Sadhanamala in the Libraries of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, Nepal and Cambridge University. The book is illustrated by pictures representing images in several museums in India and elsewhere and in the collections of numerous Nepalese monasteries many of them by Nepalese artists of Buddhist origin. For the research of this book the author travelled to the museums of Calcutta, Patna, Dacca, Sarnath, Lucknow, Mathura, Ajmer, the caves of Ajanta and Ellora and to the excavations of Nalanda and Vikrampur (the seat of Bengal Buddhism).The book is divided in 12 chapters that deal with the emanations of the various gods in the Buddhist pantheon such as the Buddhas and Bodhisattawas, Manjusri, Avlokteshvara, Amitabha, Asokbhya, Vairocana Maogh sidhi, Ratnasambhava and the Dhyani Buddhas. The work is illustrated with 203 illustrations.
