From the fifth to the seventh century, the de- cline of Buddhism was gradual and gentle ; but the farther progress of decay was then stayed for a time, and the expiring religion, like a dying lamp, still burst forth with occasional brightness, and its sudden flashes of light threw a transient brilliance over the wide-spreading gloom. In the seventh century Bud- dh...ism was propagated over the whole of Tibet; the magnificent stupa of Sdrndth, upwards of two hun- dred feet in height, was erected near Benares; and a colossal copper image of Buddha was set up, and several chaUyas and vihars built by the great Lalitaditya in Kashmir.f But, from the eighth century, the fall of Buddhism was rapid and violent.
