「正觉佛塔」塔内,供奉的释迦牟尼佛。传说此佛像,是弥勒菩萨亲手所制。因为佛陀当时正在忉利天宫,为其母摩耶夫人说法,不在人间。弥勒菩萨太想念佛陀,而依佛陀的相貌,塑出的形像。
Within the Mahabodhi Temple, there is the Shakyamuni Buddha statue that devotees pray & make offerings to. This statue had been reportedly hand sculpted by Maitreya Bodhisattva. Maitreya Bodhisattva had missed Buddha very much during his absence from the human world as Buddha was preaching the Dharma to his mother, Queen Mahamaya in the heavenly palace of Trayastrimsa Heaven (Indra Heaven). Thus, he had followed closely on Buddha's physical appearance to sculpt this statue.
