In contrast to the traditional Brahmanic practices of India, Gautama Buddha preached his methods of mindfulness, ethical training, and dhyana meditation to a growing community of devotees. Buddhism as a religion emerged between the 5th and 4th centuries BC. and was distributed throughout India. Unlike theistic religions, however, Buddhism proposed neither the deification of the Buddha nor his kinship with God, but instead proposed the methods and beliefs of Gautama as a path to enlightenment of the mind.
Buddhism flourished among numerous empires in India between the 4th and 11th centuries, and during this period its four main branches developed: Madhyamaka, Yogacara, Tathagatagarbha, and Pramana. Buddhism soon spread throughout Sri Lanka and Central Asia. From the 19th century, Buddhism began to spread to the West, where it found a large following, especially in the 20th century.
