Introduction

Buddhism spread worldwide for over 2,500 years through trade, royal patronage, migration, scholarly study, and travel. Currently, about 350 million people of the world, which accounts for 6 percent of the entire population, identify themselves as Buddhist, with Mahayana the largest tradition.
