魂唐时代龙门石窟的佛教造像遗迹中,包含了规模可观、形态各异的宫廷内职阶层的功德行为。由于这一功德施主群体社会身份的独特,因此它们的出现,毫无疑问从一个视角侧面折射出封建国家尊崇佛教信仰的政治思维。不仅如此,这种在一定意义上体现着封建王庭的文化实践,也引领了以往岁月社会各界投入文化遗产的资源支配意识,从而在宗教实践领域与当时的封建皇权推波助澜促进了一处规模化文化遗产的形成。

Among the Buddhist image relics in Longmen Grottoes in the Northern Wei and Tang Dynasties,there are sizable caves and niches with different shapes contributed by the eunuchs and lady officials in the court.Because of the particularity of their social identity,their emergence undoubtedly reflects the political thought of the feudal country’s worshiping Buddhist from a flank.Furthermore,this cultural practice embodying the feudal court also lead that the social community throw themselves into the cultural heritage,which promotes the formation of the large scale cultural heritage in the religion practice field together with the feudal imperial power at that time.
