The earliest surviving Vimalakirti-nirdesa Sutra Tableaux in Dunhuang can be dated to the Sui Dynasty, and yet there is no research focusing on the sutra and all those paintings. Basing on all my previous field research, this paper deduces three artistic developmental stages of Vimalakirti-nirdesa Sutra Tableaux unfolded in Sui Dynasty in Dunhuang. Iconographic study shows that "supernatural powers" are the foci of the images while the scene "Vimalakirti sitting across from Bodhisattva Manjushri" appears on every tableau. Narratives such as "Buddha entrusting Bodhisattva Maitreya," "transformed Bodhisattva holding rice," and the "heavenly ladies throwing flowers" appear on different paintings. Under scrutiny, it reveals that "supernatural abilities," "characters," and "places" are the consistent major elements presented from the sutra.
