We'll take a quick overview of the history of Mahāyāna Buddhism, beginning with its earliest developments and how it separated from the rest of mainstream Buddhism. Then we'll look at a few of its later developments that came to define the Mahāyāna approach. It's a huge topic so this video only can provide an introduction!
