SROVER
Historical
Description
: Buddhism,
however,
seemed
to
have
received
a
fresh
lease
during
the
reign
of
the
Puspabhutis.
Rajyavardhana
has
been
mentioned
as
Parama
Saugata
in
Harsa;s
Madhuvan
and
Banskhera
inscriptions.
It
was
however
during
the
long
rule
of
Harsavardhana
that
Buddhism
received
an
impetus
again
in
the
region.
The
Chinese
pilgrim
Yuan
Chawang,
who
visited
India
during
his
time
describes
three
Buddhist
monasteries
with
more
than
700
Hinayanists
at
Thanesar.
We
have
already
referred
to
the
Ashokan
stupas
seen
by
him
at
the
site
mentioned
above.
Though
he
does
not
specifically
mention
any
stupas
still
in
worship
at
the
time
of
his
visit,
yet
such
stupas
may
have
existed
then.
The
remains
of
one
such
stupa
may
still
be
seen
on
an
elevated
ground
between
the
Brahma
Sarovara
and
the
Kurukshetra
University.
It
is
lying
in
a
neglected
and
dilapidated
state
now
and
seems
to
have
been
opened
by
someone
as
is
indicated
by
a
cleft
in
its
solid
brick
core.
When
and
by
whom,
nobody
knows.
