The volume aims to bring together a gamut of ideas about Buddhist traditions and imageries across the trans-Himalayan Buddhist space. It also focuses on varied experiences in Buddhist monastic landscapes and pilgrimage destinations in Asiatic Russia, South Asia and South East Asia. The articles not only reflect the sentiments of Eurasian scholars regarding a Buddhist space but also diverse opinions across that space.
