印尼是一個美麗的「千島之國」,去年的3月,我們的菩提禪堂在印尼落地生根了。
.
熱情的同修也向我分享了當地世界最大的古老佛塔——婆羅浮屠塔,我覺得挺不錯的,今天也發來跟網友們一起欣賞佛塔之美。
.
【婆羅浮屠塔】
婆羅浮屠塔,位於爪哇島中部,悠久的歷史、秀麗的建築、宏大的規模,使其和埃及的金字塔、柬埔寨的吳哥窟、中國的長城同為東方四大遺跡。
它建於西元八至九世紀,整個建築分為三大層,呈金字塔狀,由160多萬塊石頭築成。基座是五個角錐體的同心方臺;中間為三個圓錐體的環形平臺;頂端為佛塔。在每層週邊的迴廊上刻滿了浮雕,總面積達2500平方米。
.
迴廊浮雕是依佛教中之「欲界」、「色界」、「無色界」的觀念來展現。底層,是較為生活化的場景;往上第一層則是描述釋迦牟尼佛的誕生與生平故事;接著幾層則是佛經中的一些情節。
.
由下走到中層,結構從方形變成了三層圓形的臺階,上有72座透雕成孔鐘形的佛塔,內有佛龕,在每個佛龕內都有供奉一尊佛像。最上層,則是眾星拱月般簇擁著的是──象徵慈悲的佛陀的大佛塔。
.
從底層沿迴廊拾級而上,讓人心生出從塵世走向極樂世界的路程,清淨、美好。

Borobudur - One of Four Major Historical Remains of the East
Indonesia is a beautiful country made up of thousands of islands. In March 2016, Bodhi Meditation established its main meditation centre in Indonesia.
Enthusiastic fellow practitioners introduced the largest ancient temple locally – the Borobudur. I found it magnificent too, and would like to share its splendor with netizens here.
Borobudur
Located in Central Java, Borobudur is steeped in history. It is a majestic architecture of a grand scale, making it one of the four great historical remains of the East, alongside the pyramids of Egypt, Angkor Wat of Cambodia, and the Great Wall of China.
The Borobudur was built in the eighth-to-ninth century. The superstructure comprised of three stratums forming a pyramid, and was constructed with more than 1.6 million chunks of stone. A harmonious 5-tier stratum of squares forms its base, ascending to three circular platforms in the middle stratum, and the top stratum is reserved for the Buddha. Along the aisles of every stratums and tiers lay dotted intricate Buddhist artifacts spanning a total 2,500 square meters.
The stratums symbolize the three domains in Buddhism, namely the world of desires, the world of forms, and the world of formless. The base stratum depicts the samsaric lives of ordinary sentient beings. The middle stratum articulates the birth of and life story of Lord Shakyamuni Buddha. The highest level relates to the chronicles in Buddhist scriptures.
As one ascends the base to the three circular platforms in the middle stratum, one is surrounded by 72 stupas, with a statue of the Buddha seated inside each of them. At the pinnacle lay, in full splendor across the entire cosmos – the Buddha - the bearing of perfect compassion and wisdom.
Venturing the aisle and taking in the awe-inspiring sights, one relishes the ascension from the mundane to the pure and auspicious heavenly realm!
