The third volume in the series is about Buddhism in the Trans-Himalayas and Trans-Siberian Region of Buryat, Russia. The Trans-Himalayan region includes Tibet, Ladakh, Kashmir, and Afghanistan and links with the Islamic world through the Silk Route trade and interactions with classical philosophical schools such as Confucianism. The volume primarily focuses on Buddhism in Buryatia, with some commentary on other parts of Russia. It attempts to throw light on the assimilation and dissemination of Buddhism in Russia as the Communist Revolution spread across the country. It traces the revival of Buddhism in Buryatia through Buryat literature, religious symbols, and secular practices. This volume is the result of analysis of Buddhist literature in different countries, especially Tibet, Mongolia, China, and India. It also draws on field visits, developments in medical fields and on manuscripts and xylographs in St. Petersburg, to provide a commentary on the contribution of prominent Buddhist reformers in Russia.
