| | Buddhist History |
| | The emperor had sent special envoys to India to invite Buddhist monks to come to China to teach Buddhism, which in that period, was regarded as an educational system, and not as a religion. | | | Buddhist Jataka stories, via a Hindu recension under the title of the Pancatantra, were translated into Persian at the command of the Zoroastrian king Khusru. | | | According to Theravada teachings, the Buddhist monks assembled in Aloka-Vihara in Sri-Lanka during the reign of King Vatta Gamini and wrote down the Tripitaka, the three basket of the Teachings, known as the Pali scriptures, for the first time. |

| | A survey of the history of Buddhist thought and practice in East Asia from its advent of the religion in Han China to the emergence of distinctly East Asian traditions of Buddhist thought and practice in the early Tang, with attention also to the early transmission of Buddhism to Korea, Japan, and Vietnam. | | | An exploration of the character of East Asian Mahâyâna Buddhism as revealed not only in the systematic exposition of its doctrines, but also, and especially, in its cultic pratices, beliefs, and iconography. | | | Examines religions’ contribution to the construction of gender, focusing on central images (e.g., the nun, shaman, Buddhist monk, female and male religious founders), and patterns of religious action (e.g., evangelism, shamanism, healing, and prophecy) in relation to changes in marriage, divorce, the practice of medicine, sexuality, and constructions of the body. |

| | Description - Speaking for the Buddha? Buddhism and the Media - Events - Institute of East Asian Studies, UC Berkeley |
| | The early study of Asian religions, Lopez remarked, was to separate out the idolaters and call them by different "-isms." However, a shift to sympathetic, humanistic portrayals of the Buddha occurred in the mid-nineteenth century with Eugene Burnouf's publication of his introduction to Buddhism. | | | Padmanabh Jaini, emeritus professor of Buddhist Studies at Berkeley, weighed in with his understanding that the true spirit of Buddhism is examination. | | | As a Buddhist teacher, he addressed the tension he encounters between speaking for Buddhism and speaking for himself. |

| | Buddhist Studies: Currents and Countercurrents: Korean Influences on the East Asian Buddhist Traditions |
| | The case of East Asian Buddhism suggests another tale, one in which the dominant eastward current of diffusion creates important eddies, or countercurrents, of influence that redound back toward the center. | | | Soon after the inception of Buddhism in the sixth or fifth century B.C.E., the Buddha ordered his small band of monks to wander forth for the welfare and weal of the many, a command that initiated one of the greatest missionary movements in world religious history. | | | But this account of a monolithic missionary movement spreading outward from the Buddhist homeland of India across the Asian continent is just one part of the story. |

| | In the year A.D. 699 the Buddhists, gaining power, raised their voices in the eastern metropolis; in the year A.D. 713, some low fellows excited ridicule and spread slanders in the western capital. | | | Orders were then issued to the authorities to have a true portrait of the Emperor taken; when it was transferred to the wall of the church, the dazzling splendor of the celestial visage irradiated the Illustrious portals. | | | Let it be published throughout the Empire, and let the proper authority build a Syrian church in the capital in the I-ning May, which shall be governed by twenty-one priests. |

| | By contrast, in the ‘one world’ of classical East Asia, instead of starting abstractly from some underlying, unifying and originating principle, one begins from one’s own specific place within the world. | | | At the same time, the shuyuan acadamies established by the great neo-Confucian syncretist Zhu Xi are modelled on Buddhist monastic schools. | | | The indigenous shamanistic tradition of Korean popular religion absorbed first Buddhism and then Confucianism from China, reshaping these traditions fundamentally to suit the uniqueness of the Korean social and political conditions (see Buddhist philosophy, Korean; Confucian philosophy, Korean). |
