Tantric Buddhism in Phi Mai, Thailand

Post by BrianG »

Here's an interesting paper on Vajrayana Buddhism in Phi Mai -

One interesting thing of note, is that apparently Vajrayana Buddhism spread from Phi Mai to the Khmer Empire, rather than the other way around, which is what I had assumed before.

Also, the usage of "Shri Samajah", in reference to Akshobhya? Is something I haven't encountered before.
