摘要
数珠是佛教重要法具,通过梳理佛教造像中的持数珠像及其相关文献,可知中国古代数珠出现于北朝中晚期,初唐时开始流行。数珠源于印度,多为手持,颗数不定,材质多样,最初是计数持诵的工具,后被视为法力、功德、福报的象征。
Rosary is an important Buddhist tool. Through combing the Buddha holding a rosary and related documents, we can know that rosary appeared in the middle and late Northern Dynasty in ancient China and became popular in the early Tang Dynasty. The Rosary originated in India. They are mostly hand-held with variable numbers and various materials. They were originally used as a tool for counting and chanting, and later they are often regarded as having magic power, merit, and blessing.
