介绍（中）	像这样的小型雕塑（1987.142.5，.7-.9）现在被确定为来自一个更大的集合的图像，用于创建三维曼陀罗。在印度尼西亚发现了两个完整的这种类型的曼陀罗，一个是1913年在Chandi Reja村发现的，另一个是最近在Surucolo发现的。这两个群体都被认为代表了钻石世界或金刚顶曼陀罗，从而将这些图像与东亚的传统联系起来，东亚也保存着这种类型的曼陀罗它们的小尺寸表明这些数字曾经被用来定义三维曼陀罗的外部区域。这些印尼雕塑，即充当侍从或随从神的菩萨，与帕拉统治者马希帕拉统治期间写的一篇评论有关，该评论写于十世纪末四分之一和十一世纪上半叶的某个时候，但它们描绘的曼陀罗的确切文本基础尚未确定。雕塑的风格是十世纪末和十一世纪东爪哇艺术的特征。这些人物有细长的身体和强壮的面孔，每个人都戴着精心铸造的串珠珠宝和一顶高大的山形王冠。每一位菩萨的饰品和手中的器具都不一样。
介绍（英）	Small sculptures such as these (1987.142.5, .7-.9) are now identified as images from a larger set that were used to create a three-dimensional mandala. Two complete mandalas of this type have been discovered in Indonesia, one in the village of Chandi Reja in 1913 and another more recently at Surucolo. Both groups are thought to represent a Diamond World or Vajradhatu Mandala, thereby linking these images to the traditions of East Asia in which mandalas of this type are also preserved. Their small size indicates that these figures would once have been used to define the outer regions of a three-dimensional mandala. These Indonesia sculptures, bodhisattvas that function as attendant or retinue deities, have been linked to a commentary written in the reign of the Pala ruler Mahipala, sometime during the last quarter of the tenth and the first half of the eleventh century, but the precise textual basis for the mandalas they depict has not been identified. The style of the sculptures is characteristic of the art of East Java in the late tenth and eleventh centuries. The figures have long thin bodies with strong faces, and each wears carefully cast, beaded jewelry and a tall, mountain-shaped crown. The ornaments of each bodhisattva are different, as are the implements they hold in their hands.
