The whole idea of Greco-Buddhism fascinates me, so I have to pose the question: could this have become a major movement within Greece itself? Perhaps some of Alexander's retinue brings back Buddhism from India, or maybe it finds strong enough roots in the Greco-Bactrian kingdom to work its way westward? Still, what's the best scenario to see a bunch of Hellenic Buddhists, and what would be the character of their society?
