	East Asian philosophy : Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy Online
		To continue the ‘person’ example, generally in East Asian philosophy, a particular person is not a discrete individual defined in terms of some inherent nature, but is a centre of constitutive roles and relationships.
		A preoccupation in classical East Asian philosophy, then, is the cultivation of this centripetal harmony as it begins with oneself, and radiates outward.
		The East Asian world view is thus dominated by this ‘bottom-up’ and emergent sense of order which begins from the coordination of concrete detail.

		But this account of a monolithic missionary movement spreading outward from the Buddhist homeland of India across the Asian continent is just one part of the story.

	Description - Speaking for the Buddha? Buddhism and the Media - Events - Institute of East Asian Studies, UC Berkeley
		The early study of Asian religions, Lopez remarked, was to separate out the idolaters and call them by different "-isms." However, a shift to sympathetic, humanistic portrayals of the Buddha occurred in the mid-nineteenth century with Eugene Burnouf's publication of his introduction to Buddhism.
		He characterized scholars as concerned with problems of translation, versus Buddhist teachers as concerned with conveying meaning — implying that perhaps neither is invested in addressing the current challenge to Buddhist tradition.
		With Buddhist groups in the U.S. and Asia objecting to the impure use of iconic imagery, Victoria's Secret issued a statement of regret but denied any knowledge that the person depicted was in fact the Buddha, and also passed off responsibility to the maker.
