Why did Buddhism (almost) disappear from India before 20th century revival, despite being a major religion behind Hinduism?
Sure, that would be great. Also, do you know how Buddhism's decline impacted the spread of the religion throughout Asia?
Yes, the decline of Buddhism in India had a significant impact on its spread throughout Asia. As a result, the version of Buddhism that spread across countries like China, Japan, and Southeast Asia evolved and adapted to the local cultures and traditions. Would you like me to find more details on this subject?
