INDIAN PANDITS IN THE LAND OF SNOW
This rare work has compiled with the help of a series of small essays written by the intrepid traveller and spy for the British Indian Survey of India Sarat Chandra Das. The essays area bench of eclectic offerings and they deal with various aspects of the origin and progress of the faith in Tibet. He experienced with his minute observation about the little known works of Indians and Aryans in the countries beyond the Himalayas during his sojourn in Tibet and he has little doubt the inquiring public will find much in them to think and ponder on. It is an undoubted fact that Buddhism found its way into Central and Eastern Asia, from Aryavarta (India); ages have elapsed since then; the almost insurmountable physical barriers which separated India and Central Asia, and want of intercourse and sympathy between these strange peoples and the Indians tended, in course of time, to obliterate the traces of the onward march of Buddhism from this country.
