EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The Triumph of Sariputra over the Heretics" we witness a powerful display of wisdom and faith. The image showcases the renowned Buddhist figure, Sariputra, as he proves the superiority of Buddhism in a remarkable manner. Amidst a serene landscape, Sariputra stands tall and confident, surrounded by onlookers. His piercing gaze exudes knowledge and enlightenment. In his hands, he holds a prodigy that reveals the true essence of his teachings. A majestic lion is brought forth through this prodigy - an embodiment of strength and courage. But what truly astounds is the sight before us: a fawn fearlessly devouring a bull summoned by a heretic magician. This extraordinary spectacle symbolizes how even seemingly weak or insignificant beings can triumph over formidable challenges when guided by truth and righteousness. Through this miraculous event, Sariputra demonstrates not only his own wisdom but also affirms the supremacy of Buddhism over heresy. The scene resonates with profound spiritual significance as it highlights the power of faith to overcome adversity. This 19th-century artwork by Stefano Bianchetti captures both the awe-inspiring moment itself and its timeless message for believers across generations. It serves as an invitation to reflect upon our own journeys towards enlightenment and embrace the teachings that lead us towards inner peace.
