佛教诞生於约二千五百年前的古印度,由释迦牟尼所创立,以智慧与慈悲为核心,传播至亚洲各地,影响深远。在这个跨越时空的长河中,佛教强调每个众生都藏有一份自性如光的潜能。这份「光」超越色相、超越语言,穿越形而上的宇宙本质,照亮我们每个人的内心。
本展依循佛教三大传承的艺术与文化脉络,规划三大单元,引领您踏上一段由历史走向内心的光明旅程。
观众将循着展览动线,由历史文物的凝视,穿越佛教宇宙观与艺术之美,最终回到自我的明心体验——这道光从心而生,照耀自己,也照亮世界。
Buddhism originated in ancient India around 2,500 years ago, founded by Śākyamuni and rooted in wisdom and compassion. It spread across Asia, leaving a profound and enduring impact. Throughout this vast journey across time and space, Buddhism emphasizes that every sentient being holds an innate potential—an inner light of true nature. This “light” transcends forms, appearances and languages, reaches into the very essence of existence, and illuminates the heart of each one of us.
This exhibition follows the artistic and cultural threads of Buddhism’s three major legacies, presenting three thematic sections that, from historical narrative to one’s inner awakening, guide the audience on a luminous journey.
Visitors will follow the exhibition’s path, beginning with a gaze into historical artifacts, passing the Buddhist cosmology through the beauty of art, and ultimately returning to a personal experience of inner clarity—this light is born from the heart, illuminating oneself and the world.
