| | Hsuan Tsang's lifetime, it should be remembered, overlaps that of Muhammad; so the area over which he passed, which has been an intersection of Buddhist and Islamic cultures for centuries, had not yet been visited by Muslims, who were a group in the making when the young monk left Chang&. | | | Hsuan Tsang, for example, wrote about the huge standing Buddhas that stood in the stone recesses of the monastery at Bamiyan until they were recently effaced as icons too offensive to the version of Islam practiced by the Taliban. | | | The historical Hsuan Tsang succeeded in his quest to bring back scriptures and create a more mature Buddhist faith in China. |

| | Hsüan Tsang saw the two colossal Buddha images, about 55 and 35 metres tall, carved out of a mountain-side in the 4th and 5th centuries AD, and mistook the smaller one to be bronze due to its gilded surface. | | | Harsha Vardhana invited Hsüan Tsang to his capital at Kanauj where he convoked a religious assembly on the banks of the Ganges, attended by the kings of twenty vassal states, together with monks and Brahmans. | | | At the confluence of the two rivers, Hsüan Tsang saw hundreds of Hindu devotees drowning themselves in the waters after fasting for seven days, in the belief that this would wash away their sins and lead them to heaven. |

| | BookPage Nonfiction Review: Ultimate Journey |
| | A monk, Hsuan Tsang set out for India in 629 to search for the truth, returning 17 years later with original texts that he studied and translated to help Buddhism become the dominant religion in the world's most populous nation. | | | The memory of Hsuan Tsang is celebrated today by Buddhists worldwide for his journey of almost 5,000 miles to India on foot, horse, camel and elephant to amass hundreds of original Indian scriptures that he felt were needed to authenticate Buddhism as it underwent different interpretations and developed competing schools in China. | | | Of course, there's a lot more to Buddhism than that, and Bernstein's discussion of the religion is as intelligible a treatment as non-adherents could hope to read. |

| | Buddhist Deity Description: Ti Tsang Pusa / Ksitigarbha |
| | Ti Tsang P'usa has often been mistaken by uninformed Buddhists to be Mogallana who was a disciple of Sakyamuni Buddha, because he too had a similar experience of descending to the Hell Realm to seek and save his mother. | | | Ti Tsang's compassion is not practised exclusively for the benefit of the beings of the hell realm, he also gives blessings to those of the world who seek his help and he is a comforter of the poor, oppressed, sick, hungry, and those who are troubled by spirits and nightmares. | | | In this Sutra the Buddha revealed that in the distant past aeons, Ti Tsang P'usa, then a Brahman maiden by the name of 'Sacred Girl', was deeply troubled when her mother died, as she had often been slanderous towards the Three Jewels: the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha. |

| | HSUAN TSANG - LoveToKnow Article on HSUAN TSANG |
| | Hsuan Tsang was born in the district of Keu-Shi, near HonanFu, about 605, a period at which Buddhism appears to have had a powerful influence upon a large body of educated Chinese. | | | Very striking is the description, like that given six centuries later by Marco Polo, of the quasi-supernatural horrors that beset the lonely traveller in the wildernessthe visions of armies and banners; and the manner in which they are dissipated singularly recalls passages in Bunyans Pilgrims Progress. | | | This last he declined, and devoted himself to the compilation of his narrative and the translation of the books he had brought with him from India. |
