Buddhism Among the Religions of Ancient Kashmir (Revised)

Author Name: Mohd Ashraf Dar | Format: Paperback | Genre : History & Politics | Other Details

Kashmiris known across the globe for its natural beauty as the Paradise on Earth. But the natives know it more for its spirituality as Raesh Vaer and Pir Vaer. Buddhism among the Religions of Ancient Kashmir explores this spiritual aspect of Kashmir prior to the coming of Islam, the major faith of contemporary Kashmir. Naga Cult, Brahmanism, Buddhism and Saivism thrived in Kashmir and contributed in making its culture unique. Buddhism has been discussed in more details as it is an irony that a religion which thrived in the valley for centuries has not even traces in contemporary Kashmir, but certain traditions prevalent in the contemporary Muslim majority society of Kashmir reflect the aroma of Buddhism.
