Greek Buddha: Pyrrho's encounter with early Buddhism in Central Asia

Beckwith, Christopher I.

The book shows how Buddhism shaped the philosophy of Pyrrho, the famous founder of Pyrrhonian scepticism in ancient Greece. Identifying Pyrrho's basic teachings with those of Early Buddhism, the author traces the origins of a major tradition in Greek philosophy to Gandhara, a country in Central Asia and northwestern India.
