Abstract

Buddhism has a profound influence on Chinese culture, and the inheritance of Buddhism cannot be separated from the translation and dissemination of Buddhist scriptures. The translation of Buddhist scriptures from China to India has lasted for a thousand years, which can be roughly divided into four stages. The development of Buddhist scripture translation has not only promoted the development of translation theories in our country, but also exerted a significant influence on language, thought, and art. This article will introduce the characteristics and changes of the four stages of Buddhist scripture translation, and summarize the various influences of Buddhist scripture translation on Chinese culture.
