Synopsis "A Record Of Buddhistic Kingdoms (in English)"
"A Record of Buddhistic Kingdoms" is a travelogue written by Faxian (also spelled Fa Hsien), a Chinese Buddhist monk and scholar who lived during the 4th and 5th centuries CE. The book chronicles Faxian's journey from China to India and back, as he sought to obtain Buddhist scriptures and deepen his understanding of Buddhism. In his account, Faxian provides vivid descriptions of the countries, people, and Buddhist sites he encountered along the way. Faxian's observations shed light on the cultural practices, religious customs, and social conditions of the Buddhist kingdoms he visited. As an ardent Buddhist practitioner and scholar, Faxian's primary purpose was to collect Buddhist scriptures and learn from esteemed teachers. "A Record of Buddhistic Kingdoms" is not only a valuable historical record of Faxian's travels but also an important source of information on the spread and development of Buddhism in Asia. It provides valuable insights into the religious and cultural landscape of the time and contributes to our understanding of ancient Buddhist traditions and practices. Faxian's travelogue remains a significant text for scholars and enthusiasts of Buddhism, history, and cross-cultural exchanges.
