Abstract | Two mudrās signify preaching in Gandhāran Buddhist art, namely the abhaya (-dāna or -hasta-) mudrā and the dharmacakra (-pravartana-) mudrā. The former is original and chronologically precedes the latter. The dharmacakramudrā appeared in Gandhāra either under the influence of South Indian art or was independently invented by Gandhāran sculptors. It was first applied, almost exclusively, to the preaching Buddha Amida in Sukhāvatī because the abhayamudrā has multiple meanings and does not always imply preaching. The new dharmacakramudrā replaced the abhayamudrā within the imagery of Sukhāvatī. It was later applied to independent cultic Buddha and bodhisattva images. This transition is observed in some relief panels depicting the First Sermon of the Buddha Śākyamuni at Sārnāth. |
