The development of Rabbinical Judaism was what caused Judaism to survive the destruction of the Temple. As with the destruction of the first Temple, prayer replaced sacrifice.
Answer:As central as the Temple was to Judaism, there is something more central, and that is the Torah. The sealing of the canon by the Men of the Great Assembly, the redaction of the Talmud, Rabbinic leadership in general, and the observance and learning of the Torah, were what kept Judaism viable with or without the Temple.Judaism survived through:
1) Reading the Torah in the synagogue and studying it at other times. In those countries where there were zero Torah-scholars, Judaism died out. One example of that is the Kaifeng community.
2) Keeping the laws and beliefs of the Torah. Those who didn't do this, such as the Hellenizers and Sadducees, went lost.
3) Maintaining vibrant Jewish communities, with communal prayer and study, mutual help, maintaining ties between the various communities, etc.
4) Remembering God's covenant and promise that the Jews and Judaism will never cease.
