Buddhism in China underwent significant adaptation as it integrated with local beliefs and practices, particularly Daoism and Confucianism. Chinese Buddhism emphasized concepts such as filial piety and social harmony, leading to the development of distinct schools like Chan (Zen) and Pure Land. Additionally, the translation of Buddhist texts into Chinese facilitated broader accessibility and understanding, fostering a unique Chinese identity within the religion. Over time, Buddhism became a major cultural and spiritual force, influencing art, philosophy, and social practices in Chinese society.
