Vietnamese Buddhism has a long history of more than 2000 years. Its origin dates back to the 3rd century B.C., when numerous Buddhist missions were sent abroad by Emperor Asoka to disseminate Lord Buddha’s Teachings in such distant countries beyond the borders of India as those in Africa, West and Central Asia as well as South East Asia including Malaysia, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and North Vietnam, which was known then as Giao Chau.

Buddhism may have been introduced to Vietnam by sea as early as the first century AD. By the second century, Chinese sources record a flourishing Buddhist community in Tongking. The history of Vietnamese Buddhism, however, begins in 580 AD, with the arrival of Vinitaruci, an Indian monk who had studied with the third patriarch of Chinese Zen Buddhism, long before it split into northern and southern schools.
