Bringing together the latest research on stupas in South Asia, this volume includes new conceptual paradigms as well as new approaches to monuments, sculpture, material culture, and textual interpretation. The collection utilizes archaeological, art historical and epigraphic evidence in broader cultural and historical frameworks to enrich our understanding, not only of stupa monuments but also ancient Buddhism and the wider history to which they pertain.

1903. In this volume Rhys, the celebrated Buddhist scholar, attempts to describe ancient India, during the period of Buddhist ascendancy, from the point of view, not so much of the brahmin, as of the rajput. The two points of view naturally differ very much. Priest and noble in India have always worked very well together so long as the question at issue did not touch their own rival claims as against one another. When it did-and it did so especially during the period referred to-the harmony, as will be evident from the following pages, was not so great.

From the 3rd century BC, when Emperor Ashoka erected the famous pillar and stupa at Sanchi, Sanchi has been a favoured spiritual hub for Buddhists. Buddhist Circuit in Central India explores the architectural magic and historical importance of Sanchi with breathtaking images, as well as Buddhist sites around Sanchi Sonari, Satdhara, Andher and Murelkhurd which are historically significant, and yet off the beaten track. The guide covers some nearby destinations from Sanchi that make for exciting day-trips like Udaigiri Caves, Gyaraspur, Vidisha, and Udaypur. There is a well-researched section on Bhopal, the gateway to Sanchi, and two convenient excursions Bhimbhetka and Bhojpur. The guide will not only be an invaluable companion to Buddhist pilgrims, but to tourists, connoisseurs of Buddhist art and architecture and the armchair traveller.
