The concern of this paper is with a recent, clear example of religious revival: namely, the notable recovery and revival of the Buddhist tradition which has occurred in Malaysia in recent times. This has been very largely, though not exclusively, experienced among people of Chinese origin and descent, and is a case of religious revival in the course of which it has not been seen necessary or desirable to resort to revivalism . The roots of this attitude probably lie in the nature and in the central emphasis of the Buddhist tradition itself
