Description
'The Modern Buddhism and Its Followers in Orissa' by Nagendra Náth Vasu delves into the complexities of modern Buddhism and its followers in Orissa. The book explores various sects and schools of Buddhism, such as Madhyamika, Yogachara, and Sautantrika, and their influence on the crypto-Buddhists of the 16th century in Utkala. It discusses the worship of the Pancha-Dhyani Buddha, the doctrines of the Baula sect, and the mantras introduced by Lohidasa and Kapila. The narrative also reveals the covert adherence to Buddhism by prominent Vaisnava poets like Jagannatha, Balarama, and Achyuta Dasa, shedding light on the fusion of Buddhist and Vaisnava beliefs.
