Buddhism was spread to Tibet from both sides of the Plateau, by two princesses
from Nepal and China respectively. The Tang princess, Princess WenCheng,
alone brought 360 scrolls of Buddhism scriptures, a Buddha sculpture as well
as lots of monks to Tibet [21]. To accommodate them, the Tibet king, Songsten
Gampo, built the first Buddhism temple in Lhasa. This happened in AD641.
Before that, Tibet’s dominant religion is Bonism, a type of Shamanism, which
is now still alive, mi |
