On the Spreading Mode Adopted by Gelugpa Sect of Tibetan Buddhism in Mongolia and its Characteristics

文章结合相关文献,论述了藏传佛教格鲁派在蒙古地区的传播方式与特点。藏传佛教格鲁派在蒙古地区的传播首先从蒙古统治集团开始,以吸纳蒙古民众和输出藏区高僧等途径为主,并在当时中央政府的积极推动下,通过自上而下等方式有计划、有组织地进行,最终使格鲁派成为蒙古社会占主导地位的宗教。

Through referring to the relevant literatures, the spreading mode adopted by Gelugpa Sect of Tibetan Buddhism in Mongolia and its characteristics are discussed in this aricle. Gelugpa Sect commenced from the ruling elite, then to the common people to disseminate Tibetan Buddhism by the means of sending high- ranking lamas to Mongolia. With the support from the central goverment and its well-organized and systematic operation, Gelugpa Sect finally became the dominant religious community in Mongolia.
