AbstractThe earliest currently accessible discussion on Buddhism and Science is Part V of Henry S. Olcott’s Buddhist Catechism, published in Sri Lanka in 1881. A treatise on the subject embodying Dr. Paul Dahlk’s research in Germany appeared in London in an English translation by Bhikkhu SÆlacara in 1913. Since then several scholars and enthusiasts have investigated issues of compatibility, parallels and contact paints. This paper seeks to serve as a survey of this century-long investigation. The purpose is to highlight the different approaches adopted by the writers as well as to identify points of convergence and divergence.
