⁵ Cf. the essay of R. Fick, *Die Buddhistische Kultur und das Erbe Alexanders d. G.*, Morgenland 25, 1934, on the earlier Buddhist culture as that of the warrior. It has been pointed out that the mass of donations to Buddhism between c. 300 B.C.-A.D. 100, compared with the paucity of those to Brahmanism, show that Buddhism was the creed of the upper classes: Sir C. Eliot, *Hinduism and Buddhism* II, 1921, p. 69.
