Preface

Buddhism had been a strong force in the social and cultural history of Andhradeśa for about 1000 years. The new gospel was responsible for uniting the Andhras into a single race and in return the Andhras played a remarkable role not only in its geographical extension but also in developing and enriching the Buddhist philosophy and religion. The Andhras appear to have been in the forefront of all the movements that took place in the development of Buddhist doctrine.
