In the results of the former sages,Research on the Dunhuang Buddhist instruments,Mainly there are several aspects。

3. Comparison research with a certain magic weapon in Dunhuang murals。In the process of studying other domestic mural artifact Bet365 app download images or magical objects,Use a comparative method,Analyze the same type in Dunhuang murals。For example, Li Xueqin's "Long -handed incense burner in the carved in Yungang Grottoes" pointed out,Long -handed incense burner first appeared in Cave 285,Holding by female supporters,to the Tang Dynasty,Long -handed incense burner is widely popular。In the text, the study of the type of long handle incense burner,The lotus -shaped long -handled incense burner began in Yungang,The conclusion of the Dunhuang Grottoes in the Tang Dynasty。Another article in Wang Yudong's "The Dust Seeing Dust in the Tang Dynasty Macration",On the shape of the dust、Materials, etc.,Part of the dust in the Dunhuang murals as a control。Similar research and Yang Jianjun、Cui Yan’s "The Research on the Temple and Crafts of the Tang Dynasty Buddhist Pattern",Wang Ming's "Bodhisattva Quotation: The Soul of the Funeral Ceremony in the Tang and Song Dynasties",Ran Wanli's "Research on the Tang Dynasty Metal incense Furnace", etc.。

Through the above research on domestic related research,The contributions to the existing results are:

One,Some specifically bet365 live casino games specific research on some magic weapons in Dunhuang murals at a relatively micro level,As a single image research, deeper。

Its two,The basic contour of the source of Buddhist magic weapons and related cultural environments from the macro perspective,Clarifying the importance of the image research in the magazine in Dunhuang murals,and paved the way for the later research to make an academic background。

Its three,In the actual object of the magic weapon、Comparative research on the image of the magic instrument and the illustration of utensils made valuable attempts and achieved preliminary results。

  Questions to be studied in depth

Although the former sages have studied fruitful results,But there are still problems to be studied in depth。

One,Due to Tibetan Buddhist magic weapon,Especially the Trendy Magic Instrument,Most of them are made of copper gold plating,The fineness of its casting、Elegant,Follow the viewers,Therefore, there are more researchers,There are more corresponding results。Comparison of comparison,The study of the Chinese Buddhist magic weapon is relatively weak。

Its two,Limited physical objects unearthed from the Han Dynasty Buddhist magic weapon,Related craftsmanship is lost with the decline of Buddhism。But,Reserved Buddhist statues and paintings so far are the main clues to seek Hanto Buddhist magic weapon。And Dunhuang as a Han Buddhist sacred place,A large number of Buddhist magic artifact images in its grotto group can provide rich information for this study。But,Due to the sculpture in the Dunhuang Grottoes、The emperor's giant system of painting,Very inconspicuous and very scattered。But,It has not received the Bet365 lotto review attention for a long time,Although the existing achievements are discussed like a Zen stick、net bottle、Hua Gai、Incense burner and other utensils,But from the large number of magic weapons in the Dunhuang grotto,It is relatively scattered and difficult to become a system。From this,There is a lot of necessity for systematic in -depth research on the instrumental instrumental image in the Dunhuang Grottoes。

Its three,Previous research involves the source flow of some Dunhuang magic weapons、Uses、Image、Material、Specification、crafts and other questions,But because these instruments are affiliated with Buddhist figures, they are not independent in the strict sense,so that the research you do cannot really be in -depth。

Four,British Robert Bill's "Tibetan Buddhist Symbol Symbols and Graphic Illustrations" uses graphic research,Analysis of the utensils in Tibetan Buddhism one by one,Really reflects the connotation of Buddhist magic weapons as art works、Value and meaning。and the study of domestic Buddhist magic weapons just lacks this perspective and behavior。

Based on the above reasons,The image of Buddhist instruments in Dunhuang Grottoes is comprehensive、System、In -depth research,It has the following value and meaning。

1. From the overall research of Buddhist magic weapons,Can add new results to the study of Buddhist magic weapons in my country,With practical application value and practical significance。

2. From the perspective of Dunhuang studies,The image research can be enriched by Dunhuang's utensil image,The nature of image type and image directory,and reflect the potential value and meaning of these two types of disciplines。
