Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and Buddhism Compared The general indifference with which researches in Buddhism have been regarded, more especially in Britain, is difficult to account for; as, irrespective of the importance of the subject from its extent and influence there are other matters of special interest connected with it, arising from the magnitude and antiquity of its architectural remains; its numerous inscriptions, upon coins, slabs and rocks, the key to the reading of which presents one of the most ingenious discoveries of modern study the coincidence in some of its historical events with western, chronology; and the light it throws upon a type of Speculation differing widely from that which is seen in the systems and philosophies of the Semitic and European nations.
