「漫畫家筆下的佛世界」作為東日本大地震援助活動的一環，已在日本及波蘭進行過15次的巡展，此次應本館邀請來台，除特別播放尚未在日本公開過的動畫外，更增加5件初次露面的作品。此區所描繪的諸佛菩薩不僅充滿個性且獨一無二，也讓人再次認識到日本漫畫所具有的敘事能力，以及漫畫家、插畫家們的創意玩心，同時期待觀眾能在與畫作的互動交流間，重新體會自己內心所盼望的事物。

As a part of disaster relief for the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami, “Buddha Illustration by Manga Artists” has already completed 15 legs of its tour in Japan and Poland. Invited to present its collections at the Museum of World Religions in Taiwan, the exhibition includes animations that have not been displayed in Japan along with an additional five pieces of art making their first ever debut. The Buddha and Bodhisattva depicted in these artworks appear to have their own unique personality traits and appearances. Specifically, viewers can admire the narrative skills highlighted by Japanese comics as well as the creativity of cartoonists and illustrators. This exhibition encourages public participation and interaction with the artworks, during which viewers are able to rediscover and experience their heart’s desires.
