Holt argues that political agendas and social forces, as much as doctrinal concerns, have shaped the shifting patterns of the veneration of Visnu in Sri Lanka. Holt begins with a comparative look at the assimilation of the Buddha in Hinduism. He then explores the role and rationale of medieval Sinhala kings in assimilating Visnu into Sinhala Buddhism. Offering analyses of texts, many of which have never before been translated into English, Holt considers the development of Visnu in Buddhist literature and the changing practices of deity veneration. Shifting to the present, Holt describes the efforts of contemporary Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka to discourage the veneration of Visnu, suggesting that many are motivated by a reactionary fear that their culture and society will soon be overrun by the influences and practices of Hindus, Muslims, and Christians. 606 $aBuddhism$zSri Lanka$xHistory 606 $aVishnu (Hindu deity)$xCult$zSri Lanka 606 $aBuddhism$xRelations$xHinduism 606 $aHinduism$xRelations$xBuddhism 606 $aBuddhism and politics$zSri Lanka 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBuddhism$xHistory. 615 0$aVishnu (Hindu deity)$xCult 615 0$aBuddhism$xRelations$xHinduism. 615 0$aHinduism$xRelations$xBuddhism. 615 0$aBuddhism and politics 676 $a294.3/095493 700 $aHolt$b John$f1948-$0636742 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454507403321 996 $aThe Buddhist Visnu$92456011 997 $aUNINA
