Research on the Regional Differentiation of Eminent Monks' Movement in Tang Dynasty

Buddhist monks frequently roamed about the country,visiting masters and seeking knowledge,or spreading Buddhist doctrine. This paper makes an analysis of regional differentiation of eminent monks' movement in Tang Dynasty and changes in earlier and later stage, on the basis of detailed statistical figures and original analytical methods. It is found that in earlier stage eminent monks moved nearby and towards the two capitals Chang'an and Luoyang, but in later stage eminent monks moved towards Jiang Nan Xi Dao and towards Chang'an, Luoyang, Mount Wutai and moved nearby. However, the characteristic of moving nearby is not so apparent as in earlier stage.
