On the Field Investigation on the Tibetan Buddhism in Dan Dou (丹斗) Region in the East Qinghai (青海)

青海东部丹斗藏区作为藏传佛教后宏期初传及下路弘法的根据地,除了它举足轻重的宗教地位外,目前仍保留着极其丰富的佛教历史遗存,其中不乏后宏期初期珍贵历史遗物及多处遗址。该区域发现的绝版藏文手抄本及其他遗物、佛寺遗址等重要文物,对还原藏传佛教下路弘传当时的情况、汉地佛教及西夏佛教与丹斗藏区佛教的互动影响等有无可估量的研究价值。

Dan Dou was the base for the spread of Tibetan Buddhism during the Houhong period(后宏期).Besides its important religion position,there are various Tibetan Buddhism relics,especially the remains and relics in the Houhong period.Many rare manuscripts in Tibetan and the relics of Buddhism temple were found in this region.In the neighboring caves,the precious frescos were found and invaluable for academic research.Those precious frescos reflect the situation of the low road spread(下路弘传) in the Houhong period.
