耆那教白衣派祖师打坐像

first half of the 11th century
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 241
在耆那教徒每日奉行的宗教仪式中，最重要的是敬奉“耆那”像，其概念基础是盛行于全印度的理想瑜伽苦修者形象。这种古老的修行方法在《吠陀经》（最古老的印度教经典）中亦有记载，它认为如欲获得心灵的智慧就必须追求更高级的冥想形式并舍弃物质享受。耆那教中有二十四位已得解脱的灵魂被认为已经达到这种高度，他们被当作“祖师”崇拜。这位耆那教祖师坐在饰有珠宝的宝座垫上，可能是代表大雄，也就是历史上耆那教的创始人，他与生活在公元前五世纪的释迦牟尼佛几乎是同时代的人。
