摘要
无量寿佛与阿弥陀佛为同一佛名的不同译名,六朝时流行意译的“无量寿”而唐代流行音译的“阿弥陀”,从中反映了隋唐佛教信仰的一些发展变化,这些史实通过龙门石窟等雕刻表现出来。
Amitāyus and Amitābha are two names of Amitābha Buddha. The two were translated into the term by different time showing the emphasis point on their innate meanings at the different periods of Chinese history. Amitāyus, the Buddha of Infinite life, was widespread during the Southern Dynasty, and Amitābha, the Buddha of Infinite Light, was the prevalence during the Tang Dynasty. The fact that the shift terms in using name of Amitābha Buddha has refected the fact that some change of Buddhist Belief has taken place during the Sui Dynasty and The Tang Dynasty, and this changes in belief had been truly displayed on the Buddhist sculptures carved in the Longmen Grottoes.
