In this text, Sudhana, an Indian youth who lived in wealthy surroundings, heard the teachings of the Bodhisattva Manjusri and decided to dedicate himself to following the path of the bodhisattvas, or enlightened beings who aid others in attaining enlightenment. Under Manjusri’s guidance, he made a pilgrimage south passing through one-hundred-eleven towns and seeking out the advice of fifty-three spiritual guides who were masters of the Buddhist doctrines. One after another, he asked them about the doctrines or wisdom of the Buddha which lead to the door of enlightenment. Because Sudhana’s pilgrimage originated from the teaching of Manjusri who represents wisdom in Mahayana Buddhism, Sudhana had to attain wisdom in order to gain the faith understanding which would lead to enlightenment. When he visited the last spiritual guide, Samantabhadra who aids followers of the doctrine, he attained perfect enlightenment in the path of the bodhisattvas. Although Sudhana visited spiritual guides who were bodhisattvas, monks, and nuns, he also received guidance from lay men and women, Brahmans, a sea captain, a prostitute, and children. No matter what kinds of people the spiritual guides were, Sudhana paid his respects to them and humbly asked for advice. Sudhana’s behavior thus reflects the belief that those dedicated to achieving enlightenment must clear all prejudices from their minds and rid themselves of all arrogant behavior. They must also not rely on one or praxis or method for achieving enlightenment. (下續)@#@@#@內容簡介(英文)@#@(承上) There are a total of fifty-six paintings in this album. In the first leaf, the artist copied out out the Hua-yen Lun-kuan by the monk Fu-an, a text which outlines the teachings of the Hua-yen sect and the fifty-three encounters with spiritual guides. The second Sudhana met on his pilgrimage, one encounter per leaf. In the last leaf, the artist transcribed “The Chapter of Samantabhadra’s Vows.” In painting the encounters, the artist used gold lines, and each of the paintings bears the gatha or verse “Manjusri Leading the Way South” written by the Southern Sung Ch’an monk Wei-pai. This short gatha signifies Sudhana’s acceptance of Manjusri’s guideance to travel south to seek enlightenment. The monk Hui-yuan in K’an-tingchi further states that the meaning of “south” according to the interpretations of the western regions is actually “right” in Sanskirt, signifying “unhindered.” “Travelling south” in this context thus means “following the path toward enlightenment in an unhindered fashion.” In this exhibition, twenty-nine encounters of Sudhana’s pilgrimage are on display.@#@@#@內容簡介(英文)@#@ This subject comes from “Entering the Dharma Realm” in Avatamsaka Sutra. Sudhana, hearing the Buddhist teachings, vows to follow the Bodhisattva Path, visiting more than 100 towns and 53 teachers in his quest. The first leaf in this album of 58 works transcribes Fu’an’s Summary of Avatamsaka Sutra, briefly discussing the sutra and Sudhana’s pilgrimages. Each leaf also transcribes Illustrated Eulogies on Manjusri Leading the Way South by the Chan monk Foguo. It appears in Song woodblock prints, but the version here differs and likely reflects Ming methods. The Qing imperial catalogue records a work of the same title by a “Song monk Hailun.” The old title here attributes it to a “Japanese monk Hailun,” whose identity awaits further study.(20120408)
