臥佛

　　臥佛 (英語：Reclining Buddha)是指佛陀躺下的畫面，同時也是佛教藝術中重要的圖像主題。它代表了在歷史上佛陀生命裡最後一場病時，即將要進入到般涅槃的狀態。在臥佛狀態下，佛陀會躺在他的右側，頭靠在墊子休息上或依靠在右肘上，用手支撐頭部。

　　該樣式的佛像似乎與犍陀羅國的希臘式佛教藝術佛像在同一時期出現。

泰國藝術

　　在泰國的佛像中，臥佛可以指三種不同情節的姿勢，儘管每個姿勢的具體特徵尚不清楚。

‧ 涅槃姿勢 (泰語：ปางปรินิพพาน)

‧ 教導羅睺Asurin的姿勢 (泰語：ปางโปรดอสุรินทราหู)

‧ 睡著的姿勢 (泰語：ปางทรงพระสุบิน)
