Question-How does Constantine’s endorsement contribute to the spread of Christianity compare
to Ashoka’s endorsement to the spread of Buddhism?
Citation for first piece of historical evidence- Kaling Edict (261 BCE) Asoka (pg. 306)
The first piece of evidence is the Kalinga edict from Asoka in 261 BCE. This piece of evidence
shows that the ruler Asoka endorsed Buddhism and participated in its spread during his reign.
Asoka had many pillars set up around his Empire which declared his Buddhist faith. The Kalinga
edict shows Asoka’s intention to rule according to dharma practices and to spread it among his
people. He states that deporting and killing thousands of people has been done in the past but
now killing even a small percentage of that is offensive to him. He stresses that he wants to
forgive people even when they do him wrong and show respect for all creatures in adherence to
his faith. He also shows that he wants these practices to continue for his people by encouraging
future rulers of his family to rule by the dharma practices. He believes following these practices
would make them happy in this life and next and it would be better to have people convert to
dharma willingly.
Citation for second piece of historical evidence -The Practice of Perfect Wisdom (100 BCE)
(pg. 309)
The second piece of evidence “the Practice of Perfect wisdom is 41 verses taken from a
Perfection of Wisdom in 8,000 lines. This Buddhist text written around 100 BCE. shows
evidence of movement of Buddhism along the silk roads. One of the scrolls has been found in the
Kharosthi script which is one of the languages used by Asoka to spread his messages. This same
text can be found translated in Chinese. It was preserved by a Chinese monk who travelled
between Pakistan and the Han capital. This shows the great distance the message travelled.
Citation for third piece of historical evidence- Recovery of the Cross of Christ by Helena (325
CE) (pg. 410)
The third piece of evidence is the “Recovery of the Cross of Christ by Helena written in 325 CE
by Socrates. Socrates’ Ecclesiastical History was a history of Christianity from 305 CE to 439
CE. He tells of the story of when Constantine’s mother, Helena, found the cross that Jesus was
crucified on. After having a dream, his mother travels to Jerusalem and uses a dying women’s
recovery to tell which cross belonged to Jesus. She sent some of the nails from the cross to
Constantine which he had made into a helmet and bridle bits which he used in military
expeditions. In his story he also explains that Christianity spread to different parts of the world
when apostles travelled to such places as Ethiopia and India to spread the word and to make
converts of the people.
