About the Book
This book provides a multi-dimensional study of caitya, stūpa, relic, symbol, and image worship within the Theravāda Buddhist tradition. Drawing upon Sinhalese Vaṁsa literature and accounts from prominent Chinese travelers to India, it offers a vivid picture of Buddhist religious practices and their historical development. The work also elucidates the rise and growth of Buddhist devotionalism in Sri Lanka, highlighting how sacred symbols and rituals evolved across regions and time. Rich in detail and scholarship, this volume is an essential resource for students, researchers, and readers interested in Buddhism, devotional traditions, and South Asian cultural history.
