The Empire did not make an official state religion in India. Throughout its history, India has been known for its religious diversity, with various religions coexisting and flourishing. The Mauryan Empire under Emperor Ashoka did adopt Buddhism as its preferred religion, but this was an exception rather than the norm.
Religion spread out throughout the Mauryan Empire. Ashoka was the first ruler to promote Buddhism. He sent teachers to spread the religion throughout India. Buddhist teachings and the laws of Ashoka were carved on rocks and tall pillars for all the people to read. It influenced the Mauryan Empire that much.

Mauryan Empire after Ashoka Ashoka's embrace of Buddhism has been said to have been the foundation of the reign of social and political peace and non-violence across all of India.
