Hinayana flourished in Ceylone Burma Siam and Cambodia Mystic Buddhism developed in Tibet Mahayana grew in China. In Japan the whole of Buddhism became the living and active faith of the masses. The present study relates to Japanese Buddhism as in Japan alone the whole of Buddhism is preserved. The author presents Buddhist philosophy in an ideological sequence and not in its historical sequence as Prof. Stcherbatsky has done in his Buddhist Logic.

The author treats these schools in most scientific and elaborate way. (jacket) 235 pp.…
