Description

The present work intends to project a picture of Buddhism during the Gupta, post-Gupta and pre-Pala periods, in all the aspects of history, art, architecture, inscriptions, literature, philosophy as well as the intercourse with China, which, by this time, had become more interested in India though it had received Buddhism much earlier and was exchanging Buddhist scholars with India.
