O obrazu
Amida’s Pure Land fills the center of Taima Mandala, an early fourteenth-century painting at the Cleveland Museum of Art in Cleveland. The image copies an eighth-century woven mandala preserved at Taimadera. Its subject follows a scripture in which Shakyamuni explains the paradise to Queen Vaidehi and teaches her to visualize it in meditation. At the left, scenes recount their meeting; at the right are the images she is instructed to contemplate. Along the bottom appear nine possible levels of rebirth in the Pure Land.
Slovy muzea
This painting is a copy after an 8th-century woven mandala belonging to the temple Taimadera. The composition is based on a sacred text that describes the Buddha Shakyamuni’s explanation of Amida’s Pure Land to Queen Vaidehi, as well as his instructions to her on visual meditation upon the Pure Land. The Pure Land appears at the center of the painting. To the left is the story of Queen Vaidehi’s encounter with Shakyamuni, and to the right are the scenes she is given to visualize. The bottom illustrates the nine levels of birth that can be attained in the Pure Land.
