Design Description: Buddhas of the Three Treasures - Present Mindfulness Buddha embodies compassion and wisdom, and the Buddha sculpture is a reminder for all of us to love and to care.“Present Mindfulness” is a set of three Buddhas: Amitabha Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha and Medicine Buddha, representing the past,the present and the future of cultivating peace. They remind us that the past is understood through learning, and the present is understood through cultivation. This gives us a grasp of the future and releases us from apprehension. Shakyamuni Buddha guides all beings to practice compassion through their actions, words and intentions. With boundless artfulness and intelligibility in his prose, he enlightens all beings to understand the truth and enter Buddhism, and he guides people in the present to realize the true meaning of Buddha-Dharma. In Buddism, praying to Shakyamuni Buddha is for enlightenment, peace and happiness. 佛,是慈悲與智慧的象徵,而佛像是一種提醒,讓我們對世界有愛與關懷,在紛擾的世界,欣賞佛像的當下,也得到心靈的寧靜。此作品為三寶佛系列之一,三寶佛即釋迦牟尼佛、藥師佛、阿彌陀佛,代表過去、現在、未來的修行與正念思考。提醒的是:透過學習,知道過去;透過修持,知道現在。我們可以對未來有一種了然,沒有疑懼。其中,阿隬陀佛代表「無量壽」、「無量光明」;造型中的阿彌陀佛,坐於蓮臺上,掌中托著一座蓮台,表示接引眾生往生西方極樂淨土,在蓮花中化生之意,所以蓮花也代表一個可以使永生的象徵。祈禱阿彌陀佛,以求光明和清淨之心。 |
