| 摘要 | Ashoka Maurya ruled as the third emperor of India's Mauryan Dynasty about 263 BCE. After leading his army to battle in order to expand his empire in the northwestern part of India, Ashoka was devastated by the destruction he initiated. He renounced killings and adopted wholeheartedly the Buddhist doctrine of non-violence. Ashoka brought many changes to India with his conversion to Buddhism. This study reflects research from primary and secondary sources related to India's history and shows how Ashoka made changes in India. Of particular interest are the primary source rock and pillar inscriptions Ashoka published after his conversion. The edicts contained his thoughts, Buddhist teachings, and his will for the empire. This study expounds the research regarding (1) the historical background of the Mauryan Dynasty, (2) the causes of Ashoka's conversion to Buddhism, (3) how India changed after Ashoka's conversion, and (4) conclusions. |
