(99+ 封私信 / 85 条消息) 喜马拉雅纹章学系列——锡金王国国徽 – 知乎
锡金王国国徽名为“康松昂杜”(Kham-sum-ongdu),是锡金王国政府的标志,亦为锡金王室先前的标志。

位于中央的盾牌由两侧的龙扶持,中央的元素还包括用莲花装饰的佛教的法轮。上方是欧洲样式的帽盔,其上面为右旋海螺和代表唤醒弟子并督促他们去实现自己和他人福祉的佛法的普遍心声佛教符文。徽章的底部有藏文的༄༅།ཁམས་གསུམ་དབང་འདུས།(Kham-sum-ongdu)字样,意为三界征服者。
随着锡金王国被印度吞并并且锡金王室被罢黜,锡金王国国旗丧失官方地位,但是徽章得以保留。

“康松昂杜”(Kham-sum-ongdu)是南杰王朝的徽章,它将东方象征主义与英国纹章学融合在一起。作为宗教和政治统治的象征,“康松昂杜”字面意思是三界征服者,此三界分别是:
- “欲界”——感官享乐的世界
- “色界”——物质世界的领域……
- “无色界”——精神世界或无形灵魂的世界

The ‘Kham-sum-ongdu’, the coat of arms of the Namgyal dynasty melds oriental symbolism with British heraldry. The symbol of religious and political government, the ‘Kham-sum-ongdu’ literally means the conqueror of the three worlds or ‘lokas’, these being:
1. ‘Kama loka’ – the world of sensual pleasure
2. ‘Rupadhatu loka’ – the realm of the material world …
3. ‘Arupadhatu loka’ – the spiritual world or world of formless spirits

两只狮鹫象征着象征因陀罗的神化坐骑或观世音菩萨的化身——塔琼巴拉哈(Tachog Balaha)。
盾牌上的十二个圆环代表“十二缘起支”(twelve interdependent contributors),揭示万象缘起规律 。
八片莲花花瓣象征“八正道”(Eight Fold Path),昭示锡金和平共荣之道 。
盔体喻国土防御之力,顶部法螺彰显佛法在锡金的弘传(propagation of Dharma)。
此蕴含深意的“康松昂度”(Kham-sum-ongdu)今已正式定为锡金邦政府徽记。
The two griffins symbolise the mythological horse of Indra as well as Tachog Balaha, one of the manifestations of Avalokiteshvara or Chenrezig.
The twelve rings within the shield represent the ‘twelve interdependent contributories of origination of all phenomenon.’
The eight lotus petals symbolize the Eight Fold Path which is to bring peace and harmony to Sikkim.
The helmet, symbolising the defensive force of our land is crested by a conch shell which depicts the propagation of Dharma in Sikkim.
The Kham-sum-ongdu has now been adopted by the Government of Sikkim as its official emblem.
