A SILVER-INLAID AND GILT-BRONZE FIGURE OF MAHASIDDHA, THE MYSTICAL TEACHER VIRUPA
Tibet, 17th - 18th century. The figure dressed in a short dhoti seated in lalitasana on an antelope skin atop a remarkably well-incised foliate base. Looped across his waist over to his raised leg, a notched yogic band decorated finely with a scrolling vine, his one hand cradling a kapala, the other raised with fingers pointing upwards.

Provenance: From an old German private collection. To the base, a collector’s label, ‘Vahasida’ (sic!).
Condition: Very good condition with old wear, expected casting flaws and traces of usage, small nicks here and there, few minuscule losses, light scratches. Good, naturally grown patina overall.

Weight: 1471.2 g
Dimensions: Height 16 cm

The body ornamented with beaded jewelry, the hair knotted in a high chignon and pulled back with a headdress decorated with floral jewelry. The face in a tranquil expression with eyes inlaid in silver under raised eyebrows, the ears elongated with heavy spiral earrings, his curling moustache and long beard, all under a broad smile. To the copper base, an incised crossed vajra symbol.

Mahasiddha may be translated as "Great Attainer" and implies a mystical teacher who is free-thinking and often eccentric, who has mastered the various yogic techniques and attained unusual magical and spiritual powers. Virupa, the Lord of Yoga, is venerated foremost in magical attainments among the 84 Mahasiddhas of India. He is pivotal within all traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. In the Sakya, Virupa is typically depicted in one or all of the six prescribed forms that follow the major events in his life story. The Sakya iconographic convention for depicting Virupa is to have the right hand raised for depicting the narrative of stopping the sun in the sky.

The Indian mystic, Virupa is credited with performing many extraordinary deeds, including parting the waters of the Ganges and drinking enormous amounts of alcoholic beverages. Once he was refused further liquor at a tavern unless he could pay, upon which he prevented the sun from setting for two days with his magical powers. The local king, highly concerned, settled his bill in order to free the sun. Here, he is here depicted with his right arm raised in the threatening gesture of tarjani mudra, ordering the sun not to move. Virupa lived in the ninth century in southern India and studied at the University of Nalanda. He was known for his comments on the Hevajra Tantra.

Literature comparison:
Two related examples of Virupa in the Museum Rietberg are published in Uhlig, On the Path to Enlightenment, Zurich, 1995, pp.179, nos.122-3. Compare a closely related figure of Virupa, but with his right hand lowered instead of holding the skull cup, in U. von Schroeder, Indo-Tibetan Bronzes, 1981, cat. no. 128C; and two examples in the Berti Aschmann Collection, cf. H. Uhlig, On the Path to Enlightenment, 1995, cat. nos. 122 and 123.

西藏,十七至十八世紀。大成就者身穿短布腰布,坐於精雕羚羊皮葉紋底座。 一條腰帶從腰上繞到抬起的腿上,腰帶飾有藤蔓,他的一隻手抱著一個卡帕拉,另一隻手舉起,手指向上。

身體飾有珠寶,頭髮盤成高髻,頭戴飾有花卉珠寶的頭飾。 臉上表情平靜,眉毛下鑲嵌著銀色的眼睛,長耳,戴著大耳環,捲曲的小鬍子,臉上掛著燦爛的笑容。 銅底座上刻有雙金剛杵。

毘魯巴是印度早期佛教人士,佛教八十四大成就者之一。畢魯巴通過喝酒展示神通,使三天時間太陽不曾移動,以及在印札等外道地方展示神通。並在印度東方的第米過第等地通過加持,保護婆羅門子免受當地羅剎殺戮,並使眾羅剎皆發誓禁止傷害皈依三寶者。其後,大師就回至空行淨土。

文獻比較:
兩件相近的毘魯巴,收藏於Rietberg博物館,出版於Uhlig,《On the Path to Enlightenment》,蘇黎世,1995年,頁179,編號122-3。比較一件非常相近的毘魯巴,但他的右手放低,而不是握住骷髏杯,見U. von Schroeder, 《Indo-Tibetan Bronzes》,1981年,圖錄編號128C。兩見例子見Berti Aschmann 收藏,cf. H. Uhlig,《On the Path to Enlightenment》,1995年,圖錄編號122和123。
