This stele is traditionally believed to depict the scene of the miracle of Sravasti.

However, another opinion holds that it depicts Sukhavati -the paradise of the Buddha Amitayus.

This densely carved slate has a large central Buddha sitting on a lotus in preaching gesture surrounded by seated and standing figures. It is a rare example of the Gandhara School.

In the miracle of Sravasti, the Buddha was challenged by six teachers of Rajagriha to participate in a contest of miracles before the King Prasenajit.

The Buddha walked in air, flames leaping from his shoulders and water running from his feet. He then transformed himself into many images which floated in the air reaching up to heaven while he preached the Law.
