隋前汉译佛典中的观音形象及其在中土文学中的表现

On the Image of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Buddhist Scriptures of Chinese Version and the Presentation in Chinese Literature before Sui Dynasty

观音形象在我国历史发展中有一个变化过程,不同历史时期受到各个方面因素的影响,表现出不同特征。两汉魏晋南北朝时期的汉译佛典中,观音形象主要表现为:位列三圣,停住庄严;形态端严,姿仪华美;慈悲普度,幻化无端;智慧超绝,自在无碍四个方面。当时中土文学作品中主要展现了观音形象慈悲普度,幻化无端这一个方面,其他几个方面均不是文学作品呈现的重点,这从一定程度上反映了当时人们对观音菩萨形象的接受情况。
