In Gharba-mandala, Daikokuten is depicted as defeating Shiva and his sacred white buffalo, Nandin (in China or Japan, Nandin was incorrectly drawn as a goat or rabbit because a white buffalo was not recognized there) with an angry expression on his face. |
胎蔵界曼荼羅での大黒天は、シヴァとその聖なる白牛ナンディン(白い水牛が中国や日本で認識されずに、山羊や兎の姿で誤描写)を降伏させている憤怒相で描かれている。 |
