What is the five ways that Buddhist spread?

Answer 1

Well, some of the ways are as follows:

1) The Buddha traveled throughout Northern India teachings as he went. People

listened, like what they heard and started to be followers

2) Monks went out during the morning and begged for food. In return for food the

monks would give a teaching.

3) Buddhist lay people who were merchants traveled to new lands and brought

the teachings to new areas.

4) The Buddhas teachings were written down, which gave a way for curious

people to read about the Buddha and his teachings.
