Most travellers only pass through Bihar because they're heading for either
Katmandu or Calcutta. The area, divided into the lowlands and the uplands
by the river Ganges, was a famous religious centre for all sorts of
teligions and is especially known for the world's first university of
Buddhist Learning that was founded south of Patna. If you're interested in
Buddhism, Bihar is an area not to be missed. There are still excellent
opportunities to indulge in Buddhist learning. Maybe Patna, the state's
capital, is not the most suitable place but the famous
Bodh gaya
pilgrimage site will undoubtedly be inspiring. In the village you can visit
the tree under which the prince attained enlightenment to become Buddha.
Bihar is also famous for its old university of Gupta period namely
Vikramshila university,near Bhagalpur and Nalanda university,near
Patna.These were centres of learning.Many chinese buddist Monk have history
of getting education here. |
