An Introduction to Mahayana Buddhism

William Montgomery McGovern

  1. This work gives the reader an introduction to Mahayana Buddhism, with special reference to Chinese and Japanese phases. Mahayana is divided into unreformed and reformed branches, the unreformed branch being found all over Eastern Asia, while the reformed branch has its center in Japan. Mahayana Buddhism claims that their own teachings more perfectly express the meaning of Buddha’s teachings as compared to Hinayana Buddhism.
