Now in other videos we talk about legalism, which was a key part of the Qin Dynasty, which was the first real imperial dynasty. China is named after the Qin Dynasty, but it was fairly harsh. It was really this idea that, hey, human beings really need strong leadership, sometimes harsh leadership, in order for society to actually work. Now the school of thought that we have here up at top, Buddhism is interesting because it did not emerge from that Hundred Schools of Thought period that we get at the end of the Zhou Dynasty. Buddhism emerges in India at around the same time, roughly 2,500 years ago with the teachings of Buddha, a Hindu prince who lived in northeast India, southern Nepal, and his teachings are, in some ways you could almost view as a reformation of Hinduism at the time, a return to the idea that someone, through meditation, through realization, can become one with, at least in Buddhism, the emptiness, nirvana, can escape from clinging to desires of this non-reality that we think we live in. Now we've talked about in previous videos how the Qin Dynasty was really based on this legalist philosophy. But the Han Dynasty is considered the Golden Age of China.
