丹达伦寺位于四川省阿坝藏族羌族自治州马尔康市,是卓克基土司家庙之一。寺内经堂一层内、外壁保留有大量壁画。内壁正壁绘释迦牟尼佛及上师像,两侧壁绘护法神等,从图像内容看与格鲁派和宁玛派有关。外壁以十四尊佛像和一尊菩萨像为主体,周围绘制礼拜众等。从图像中的世俗人物所着服饰及图像艺术风格推测壁画绘于清代,结合文献所记该寺庙修建的历史,壁画应绘于17-18世纪。该寺庙的发现为马尔康地区宗教发展史的研究提供了重要的实物资料。

Tandaling Monastery(Tib.Sa'i so dgon bstan dar gling)is located in Barkham city,the Ngaba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province.It was one of the family temples that belonged to the Cog tse rgyal po.The murals of the monastery are mainly preserved on the walls of the ground floor of the assembly hall.The murals on the front inner wall depict Buddhas and Tibetan teachers;protector deities were painted on the side walls of the inner part.The content of the murals can be judged to be related to the Gelugpa and Nyingmapa sects.On the outer walls of the assembly hall,the main subjects are fourteen Buddhas and a Bodhisattva,who are surrounded by their followers.The depictions of the clothing of the laity and the artistic style of the painting suggest that the murals were painted in Qing dynasty.Based on the literary records of this monastery,the murals should have been painted during the 17th to 18th century.This monastery provides important materials for research of the religious history of the Barkham area.
