Excerpt from The Church of Thibet: And the Historical Analogies of Buddhism and Christianity, "a Lecture Delivered Before the Students' Literary and Scientific Society," "in the Framji Cowasji Intitution, Bombay,"
Paris, we are indebted for almost all our knowledge of northern Buddhism. Of the two works by Carl Frie drich Koeppen, to which Lassen directs his readers, I am only acquainted with the latter, the Lamazlsclze Hierar chie and Kirche, and I am indebted to it for most of the historical information and many of the views contained in this lecture. The more popular work of Barthelemy St. Hilaire, Le Budd/ta et se Religion,l first read many years ago in the caves of Ajanta, in Khandeish, in pre sence of the most impressive memorials of Buddhist art and worship, and l have never forgotten the delightful impressions which I received from it. My Companions in that visit to the famous Buddhist sanctuary were Sir A. Grant, my distinguished predecessor in the posi tion which I have now the honour to hold, and the lamented Dr. Bhau Da'i, who was long connected, if lam not mistaken, with your Association. His great knowledge of Indian archeology and the religious his tory of his countrymen made his companionship on that occasion most valuable.
