Talk:Mahayana

Geo dissemination of Buddhism
When buddhism moves through a culture it transforms normally with its folk religion. To say that Buddhism comes from India and that is it is a gross injustice to the nature of the philosophy it's self. Change, impermanence is the way. We will need to move the position of some of the country's successions after China I did not have time. Amituofo 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Shenqijing (talk) 12:55, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Is it originally Indian?
Mahayana Buddhism is East Asian, and from historical records we can conclude that Mahayana primarily developed from and in China, and then spread to the rest of the sinosphere. Surely it can not be said that Mahayana is Indian? From what I can see this wiki also doesn’t state in the history that it originated in ancient India. Yet clearly in all Mahayana traditions it clearly states that it traces its origins to China.

Please elaborate. Hayashihouyi (talk) 01:43, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

Are you going to provide an argument or are just claiming “nonsense”. Hayashihouyi (talk) 18:24, 14 December 2021 (UTC)

Tell me, do Indians know what Mahayana is? Mahayana is nonexistent in India. Proof me wrong. Since you seem to be an Indian professor. Hayashihouyi (talk) 18:31, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
