Buddhist symbolism is the use of symbols (Sanskrit: pratīka) to represent certain aspects of the Buddha's Dharma (teaching). Early Buddhist symbols which remain important today include the Dharma wheel, the Indian lotus, the three jewels and the Bodhi tree. At its founding in 1952, the World Fellowship of Buddhists adopted two symbols to represent Buddhism. These were a traditional eight-spoked Dharma wheel and the five-colored flag.

  • الرمزية البوذية هي وسيلة الفن البوذي كي يمثل أوجه معينة من الدارما، والتي بدأت في القرن الرابع قبل الميلاد. ظهرت الرمزية التجسيمية منذ نحو القرن الأول الميلادي مع فنون ماثورا الفن اليوناني البوذي لغاندارا، ودُمجت مع الرموز السابقة. ظهرت ابتكارات رمزية مختلفة في وقت لاحق، خاصةً من خلال البوذية التبتية.

  • Buddhistický symbolismus je značně propracovaný a díky velkému množství různých škol a směrů poměrně složitý. Gautama Buddha sice zemřel pravděpodobně v 5. století př. n. l., avšak první dochované buddhistické symboly pocházejí až ze 3. století př. n. l. Od 1. století pak byly symboly postupně nahrazovány zobrazeními Buddhy v antropomorfní podobě, avšak symboly dodnes tvoří důležitou součást buddhistické kultury. V tibetském buddhismu patří k tradičnímu buddhistickému umění barevné svinovací malby zvané thangky. Ty jsou vyráběny často dlouholetě školenými mnichy a mají přesně stanovené proporce a danou symboliku. Většinou zobrazují výjevy ze života Buddhy, kolo života či některá z vadžrajánových jidamů jako jsou bódhisattvové, dharmapálové apod. (cs)
  • Buddhist symbolism is the use of symbols (Sanskrit: pratīka) to represent certain aspects of the Buddha's Dharma (teaching). Early Buddhist symbols which remain important today include the Dharma wheel, the Indian lotus, the three jewels and the Bodhi tree. Buddhism symbolism is intended to represent the key values of the Buddhist faith. The popularity of certain symbols has grown and changed over time as a result of progression in the followers ideologies. Research has shown that the aesthetic perception of the Buddhist gesture symbol positively influenced perceived happiness and life satisfaction. Anthropomorphic symbolism depicting the Buddha (as well as other figures) became very popular around the first century CE with the arts of Mathura and the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandhara. New symbols continued to develop into the medieval period, with Vajrayana Buddhism adopting further symbols such as the stylized double vajra. In the modern era, new symbols like the Buddhist flag were also adopted. Many symbols are depicted in early Buddhist art. Many of these are ancient, pre-Buddhist and pan-Indian symbols of auspiciousness (mangala). According to Karlsson, Buddhists adopted these signs because "they were meaningful, important and well-known to the majority of the people in India." They also may have had apotropaic uses, and thus they "must have been a way for Buddhists to protect themselves, but also a way of popularizing and strengthening the Buddhist movement." At its founding in 1952, the World Fellowship of Buddhists adopted two symbols to represent Buddhism. These were a traditional eight-spoked Dharma wheel and the five-colored flag. (en)
  • O simbolismo budista apareceu a partir de por volta do século III a.C., e começou como um simbolismo anicônico, evitando representações diretas do Buda. O simbolismo antropomórfico apareceu por volta do século I a.C. com as artes de Matura e a arte Greco-Budista de Gandara, e foi combinado com os símbolos anteriores. Várias inovações simbólicas foram introduzidas posteriormente, especialmente através do Budismo Tibetano. (pt)
  • Буддийский символизм — это метод буддийского искусства для передачи некоторых аспектов дхармы, возникший в IV веке до н.э. Антропоморфный символизм появился примерно в I в. н.э. в искусстве Матхуры и греко-буддийском искусстве Гандхары в результате объединения с существовавшими ранее символами. Позднее, особенно в тибетском буддизме, в символизм были введены и другие новшества. (ru)
