Buddhism
There are four Sanskrit primitives in the Rosary, translated into Chinese meaning: number beads, beads, chanting, beads
Lines, Indians have been riddled with shackles since ancient times, and later became the use of rosary.
However, Buddhism did not use rosary at first. The earliest records were about the second century. In China, in the Sui and Tang Dynasties (about 600 AD), there were records of the use of rosary beads and the carving of Buddha images. The rosary is not created by Buddhism. The instruments made in the Buddha era are not recorded in the rosary, and are not included in the "Beiqi 18 Things".
The Buddhist scriptures are mostly from the classics of the later period, but the classics of the law are not recorded. Therefore, the Buddhists of the Southern Buddhism in accordance with the law are less likely to hold the beads, but in the secret religion, the beads are highly valued.
The classics mentioned in the introduction of Chinese rosary include: "Wooden [Wooden] Sutra", "School of Jujube Demon", "King Kong Ding Yoga Rosary", etc. The main content is to tell the merits of holding the three treasures of the Pearl. In a nutshell, the rosary can make the Buddha disciples introspect, and the sorghum can increase the ceremonies when wearing the beads. However, this record was only at the earliest in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and it was somewhat conflicting and different from the laws of Nan Buddhism.
