Adopted Doctrines of Buddhism is a book written by T. W. Rhys Davids, a renowned scholar of Buddhism. The book explores the concept of borrowed or adopted doctrines in Buddhism, where certain ideas and beliefs were incorporated into the religion from other cultures and traditions. Davids examines the historical context of Buddhism and provides examples of how certain doctrines, such as the concept of rebirth and karma, were influenced by pre-existing beliefs in India. He also discusses the influence of Greek philosophy on Buddhist thought, particularly in the areas of logic and ethics. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of adopted doctrines in Buddhism, including the role of language and translation in the spread of ideas, the influence of Hinduism and Jainism, and the impact of Western philosophy on Buddhist thought. Overall, Adopted Doctrines of Buddhism offers a fascinating look at the evolution of Buddhist thought and the ways in which it has been shaped by outside influences. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history and philosophy of Buddhism.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Early Buddhism, by T. W. Rhys Davids.
