Taxila is one of the Earliest Educational and spiritual center of the world Taxila is formerly known as Takhsashila in Sanskrit which Actually means " City of Cut Stone " .


Taxila is a middle point for the connection between Mediterranean countries & central Asia to India for Some Countries like 6th century BC to 5th century BC

So how Mahayana Buddhism spread is full of facts , mysteries & stories , the ascetic  Buddhism is older from the Mahayana one . Ashoka wants to spread Buddhism to more & more kingdoms after Kalinga War .

So due to this dream or i can say a duty toward religion , Ashoka gave a present to the Chinese ruler of Chou dynasty on the first day of Silk route , the present is Actually Buddha's finger bone but these efforts are not up mark for spreading Buddhism in china for centuries .

 

 
After Ashoka's death , Taxila became the major center of Buddhism learning & introduced the Mahayana .


And it was Taxila from where the branch at Buddhism which is Mahayana finally Began to Spread Across Asia & than to China .

And the proof is Chinese Monk Hsuan - Tsang as he saw & noticed more than 1000 Monasteries in the Kingdoms .

👍 There are some Accounts , Taxila is made in the Honor of Bharat's Son  Taksha .


Gandhar & Taxila are the two cities which are found in "Ramayana " Bharat forms two cities for his two sons , Pushkala has Pushkalavati later became Gandhar & now Pakistan , second son Taksha took Takshashila (taxila).

These regions are always a area of conflicts of religion , money , bliss , power everything .

like Hinduism in Ramayana period , then Buddhism put a strong hold there after Mauryan Empire and now Islam .

  1. It is always better to go for a school nearby. HDFC schools are now open in Gurgaon, Pune, and in Bengaluru as well!
    I believe that kids are a blessing and have various gifts and capacities. I think of it as a benefit to help encourage their learning and scholarly development. I believe every understudy learns in their own specific manner and style.
    Choosing a school in nearby for your child is a major decision in every parent's life.cbse schools near me
