Buddizmning yoyilishi haqida so‘z borganda qadimgi turkiy xalqlarning Buyuk ipak yo‘lidagi siyosiy mavqeyi, ularning qo‘shni Sharq xalqlari bilan kechgan siyosiy-iqtisodiy, madaniy munosabatlarini unutmaslik kerak. Qadimgi turklar buddizmni hind, tohar, so‘g‘dlar bilan diniy, madaniy aloqalari tufayli qabul qilgan bo‘lsalar, keyinchalik o‘zlari ham bu dinning taraqqiyoti va Osiyoning boshqa o‘lkalariga yoyilishiga munosib ulushlarini qo‘sha oldilar. Buddizmning yoyilishi va taraqqiyoti bilan bog‘liq ushbu xalqasimon jarayonda qadimgi jamiyatning ham o‘rni katta. When talking about the spread of Buddhism, one should not forget the political position of the ancient Turkic peoples on the Great Silk Road, their past political, economic and cultural relations with the neighboring peoples of the East. The ancient Turks accepted Buddhism due to their religious and cultural ties with the Hindus, Tohars, and Sogdians, and later they themselves contributed to the development of this religion and its spread to other Asian countries. The ancient society has a great role in this popular process related to the spread and development of Buddhism.
