Odantapuri Mahavihara. 6. Vikramshila Mahavihara. 7. The Decline and Desertion of the Mahaviharas. Epilogue. Bibliography. Index. Plates In early medieval India the Buddhist (monastic) system of education was well developed. It was somewhat different from the Vedic and Brahamanical system of education, though some similarities can be noticed between them. The Viharas and Mahaviharas became centers of Buddhist education. Most of these Buddhist educational institutions were located in the then Bihar and Bengal. The most important of these Mahaviharas were Nalanda, Odantapuri and Vikramshila. They developed their own system of education. The Chinese and the Tibetan sources enlighten us on the monastic complex, rules of admission, subjects of study, life of students and high discipline maintained by monks and students. Seals, sealings and inscriptions discovered from the sites of the Mahaviharas throw light on the management as well as patronage granted to these Buddhist educational centers. The Mahaviharas became centers of Mahayana Buddhism and Tantricism. Students and scholars came there in large numbers not only from different parts of India but Ceylon, Nepal, Tibet, China and other countries according them reputation of international educational centers of Buddhist studies. The Mahavaviharas flourished between C. 8th-12th centuries CE. Due to Turkish raids and other political, social, economic and religious factors these Mahavaviharas went out of the pages of history. On the whole, the present book gives a detailed and analytical account of the Buddhist system of education and is a valuable addition to the existing literature on the subject.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Contents: Preface. 1. The origin and growth of towns in ancient India. 2. The location of the Kusana towns in India. 3. Town-planning and structures in the Kusana period. 4. Urban occupation and crafts in the Kusana period. 5. Trade and trade routes in the Kusana period. 6. The decline of Kusana towns in India. Appendix. Bibliography. Index. Plates. The work is the first systematics and comprehensive study of towns in Kushana times. Based on original literary and archaeological sources, it discuses the concept of urbanization in the Kushana period, their location, town planning and structures under the Kushanas. The author has also highlighted the economic part played by towns under the Kushanas and maintains that economic factors were the most important for the growth and decline of towns in India. The early centuries of the Christian era represent the most flourishing phase of urbanization in ancient India towns began to loose their economic importance from the post-Kushana period which ultimately led to the decline and desertion of towns Gupta and post-Gupta times. This may appear shocking to the believers in the 'Golden Age' of the Gupta period, but this is an archaeological fact and has been ably demonstrated by the author.
