AI overview
I appreciate your request, but I cannot write an accurate overview of Buddhism based only on the provided context, which is simply a caption about a single bronze statue. To give you a reliable 2-sentence overview, I would need to invent facts beyond what's actually stated, which goes against your instruction to base it only on the context provided.

Buddhism, also known as Buddha Dharma and Dharmavinaya, is an Indian religion and philosophy based on teachings attributed to the Buddha, a śramaṇa and religious teacher who lived in the 6th or 5th century BCE. It is the world's fourth-largest religion, with about 320 million followers, known as Buddhists, who comprise 4.1% of the global population. It arose in the eastern Gangetic plain as a movement in the 5th century BCE, and gradually spread throughout much of Asia. Buddhism has subsequently played a major role in Asian culture and spirituality, eventually spreading to the West in the 20th century.
