Hotels In Vikramshila
Bihar, India
Vikramshila was one of the two most important centers of learning in India during the Pala Empire, alongside Nalanda. Established by King Dharmapala in the late 8th century, it was a premier residential university that attracted scholars from all over Asia, particularly Tibet. The university was fam ous for its curriculum which included Vajrayana Buddhism (Tantric studies), logic, and metaphysics. It is said that at its peak, over 3,000 monks resided here. The ruins, rediscovered in the 20th century, reveal a massive square monastery with a central stupa that dominates the landscape. The site is located on the banks of the holy river Ganga, providing a scenic and spiritual backdrop to the ancient stones. The university played a crucial role in the spread of Buddhist culture to other parts of the world, notably through the scholar Atisa Dipankara. Walking through the excavated cells of the monks, one can almost hear the echoes of ancient debates and the chanting of mantras. The site is much quieter than Nalanda, offering a more contemplative experience for those who make the journey to this corner of Eastern Bihar. The intricate terracotta plaques found on the walls of the stupa depict various deities, animals, and scenes from daily life, showcasing the artistic excellence of the Pala period. Today, Vikramshila stands as a silent witness to India's golden age of education and spiritual inquiry.
