The Study Of The Different Fate Of Buddhism Spread In The Northern Nomadic People

Spread of Buddhism in the Turkic experiences again and again, there are three big spread, but don not last. And Buddhism spread in the Turkic has the characteristics of temporary and local, never appears the situation of universal acceptance. Buddhism may be widely accepted in the period of TuoBo khan, but because of Tuo Bo khan' death, Buddhism spread loses strong support and don't continue. Since then, the reappearance of Buddhism is the result of contact with the surrounding culture, which is faith of partial region and part of the local population.Spread of Buddhism in the Mongolian, there are two important period. The spread of Buddhism in the Mongolian begins at KuoDuan, populars at that time under the rule of HuBilie Khan, but Buddhism in this period is popular in the upper nobility of the Mongolian, has not spread widely in the Mongolian people. After the Yuan dynasty, the spread of Buddhism in Mongolian is interrupted. Until the AnDa khan, the gelu sect of Tibetan Buddhism spreads relatively and takes root in Mongolian society, continues today.Buddhism spreads in the ancient northern nomadic people, such as the Turkic and the Mongolian, why there will be a different fate? Because there are many differences of Buddhism spread between the Turkic and the Mongolian, so these many differences lead to different fate of Buddhism spread.First of all, when Buddhism spreads in the Turkic and the Mongolian, there are the different political backgrounds. From the Turkic, the Turkish political stability and political continuity is not strong, which is not conducive to spread Buddhism. In addition, the Turkic dispersion regime structure also goes against foreign culture spread; In the period of AnDa khan, because of he and his family firmly in the hands of the right-wing rule of Mongolia, the long-term control and less infighting is conducive to the spread of Buddhism, and the AnDa khan has strong power and prestige to ensure the spread of Buddhism in the desert south region.Differences in political background also make the two groups' power in different period to give different drive to the spread of Buddhism,which reflects the political factors on the spread of Buddhism have dominant role. Buddhism spread in Turkic experiences again and again, which is the result of the Turkish ruler choose to support or oppose to Buddhism spread. And Buddhism in Mongolian continues today, this situation has inseparable relationship with power politically motivated strongly support Buddhism spread in its two important period. In Yu dynasty, Mongolian society pays close attention to its running in Tibet, and need to use Tibetan Buddhism forces to establish and consolidate their rule over Tibet. AnDa khan supports the gelu sect of Tibetan Buddhism, he wants to use the gelu sect forces reached the joint of the Mongolian and Tibetan, eliminates the war, unders the authority of the department in his hands, implements "control the north" political ambitions. These political factors are the guiding role of the spread of Buddhism, which can be found in the ancient northern nomadic people, such as huihe and qidan.Second, there are the differences between Turkic Buddhism's source and Mongolian Buddhism's source. Turkic Buddhism mainly comes from China. Buddhism is introduced into the Turkish has no time to change and does not adapt to the local living environment, so Turkish native culture contrast is bigger. Mongolian Buddhism originated in Tibetan Buddhism, which is able to adapt to society in nomadic area.It is easy to accept Tibetan Buddhism for the Mongolian nomadic society.Once again, there are the differences between the Turkic Buddhism's economic foundation and the Mongol Buddhism's economic foundation. The Turkic is typical of the nomadic economy, in the second Turkic country period, although the introduction of agriculture, agriculture is a very small proportion. Nomadic economy is the Mongolian's traditional too, but in the AnDa khan period, agricultural development is rapid. The mixed economy form of animal husbandry and agriculture presents a trend. This difference reflects the relative immobilized of animal husbandry and the introduction of agricultural produces positive effects on Buddhism spread. In the second Turkic country, MoJilian suggest "to city", which reflects the Turkic has settled tendency that adapted to agricultural production. At this moment, there is the reappearance of the Turkic Buddhism. In the AnDa khan period, he builds the “GuiHua”city at FengZhoutan with agriculture development. At this time, Buddhism is also widely spread in the Mongolian. When Buddhism of HuiHu and QiDan is rapidly developed, there is the same situation of the relative immobilized of animal husbandry and the introduction of agricultural.In the perspective of cultural transmission, give some thought about a comparative study of the different fates between the Turkic Buddhism and the Mongolian Buddhism: First, religion spread needs intrinsic motivation; Second, religion spread needs cultural fusion; Third;religion spread needs the evaluation of culture's value; The fourth, the geographical space has a great influence on religion spread.
