What the ruins of the original Nalanda university tell us about an old civilisation of India
An excerpt from ‘Indians: A Brief History of a Civilisation’, by Namit Arora. The ruins of the ancient Nalanda University. | Mrityunjay.nalanda / CC BY-SA 3.0
Our knowledge of Nalanda comes from three kinds of primary sources: archaeology, epigraphy (the study of inscriptions) and texts that survived in foreign lands after Buddhism and its texts disappeared from India by the mid-second millennium. Our chief sources for Nalanda are the writings of Xuanzang and Yijing, who spent two to three and ten years there, respectively. They’ve left us a portrait of its life in the seventh century, including its physical spaces, practices and rhythms of daily life, finances, curriculum and other features of its monastic community.
