Abstract

An earthen mound, Bhiṣvā located on Birgunj, where Buddhist pilgrims stayed during the night between their journey from Lumbini and Bodhgaya. During the Rana period, Ranas assumed a trove of treasure and jewellery inside the earthen mound in the Terai region, excavated it, found ancient bricks and coals, and then left the digging of the hill. A sculptor expert from the Archaeology Department of Nepal declared the earthen mound Bhiṣvā stupa in 1977 without any scientific investigation. Later, Two Buddhist priests worshipped jivanyāsapūjā on the stūpa in 1978. After that, Hindu and Buddhist followers installed different Hindu and Buddhist images on the stupa at various times. The Department of Archeology has not done any research on it and has not declared it as a Stupa. It cannot be called a stupa without the declaration of an official institution, without mention in any Buddhist scriptures, and without any authentic document based on the words of people. But it can be called a stupa based on its shape and name.

一个土丘,Bhiṣvā位于Birgunj,佛教朝圣者在从蓝毗尼到菩提迦耶的旅程中过夜的地方。在Rana时期,Ranas在Terai地区的土丘中发现了宝藏和珠宝,挖掘了它,发现了古老的砖块和煤炭,然后离开了山丘的挖掘。1977年,尼泊尔考古部门的雕刻家专家在没有进行任何科学调查的情况下宣布该土丘为Bhiṣvā佛塔。1978年,两位僧人在stūpa上祭拜jivanyāsapūjā。此后,印度教和佛教信徒在不同时期在佛塔上安装了不同的印度教和佛教形象。考古部门没有对它进行任何研究,也没有宣布它为佛塔。没有官方机构的宣告,没有佛经的记载,没有民间流传的真凭实据,不能称之为佛塔。但根据它的形状和名字,可以称之为佛塔。
