Option 4 : 1, 2 and 3

The correct answer is 1, 2 and 3.

Kanishka became a great patron of Mahayana Buddhism.
- He organised a council in Kashmir.
- The council composed 300,000 words explaining three pitakas and collections of Buddhist literature.
- Kanishka engraved these entries on a sheet of red copper, enclosed them in stone and raised a stupa over it.
- He constructed many other stupas in the memory of Buddha.
- Hence statement 1 is correct.
The monastic university is a complex of several monasteries.
- Most of the information about Nalanda is based on ‘Hsuan Tsang’ records.
- It is evident that the foundation of the monastery was laid by Kumaragupta I in the 5th century CE.
- All the three Buddhist doctrines- Theravada, Mahayana and Vajrayana were taught here. Hence statement 2 is correct.
Some important books for this branch were Mahavastu and Divyananda.
- Their one objective was to preach the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism to the people. Hence statement 3 is correct.
