Buddhist Suppression

Buddhist Suppression is a historical phenomenon denoting the systematic restriction, persecution, or dismantling of Buddhist institutions, practices, and ideologies by political, religious, or colonial authorities within Asian societies, distinguished from broader religious repression by its specific targeting of Buddhist communities and its recurrence across distinct socio-political contexts in Asian history.
