Three Ages of Buddhism
(重定向自Three periods)
The Three Ages of Buddhism, also known as the Three Ages of the Dharma, (simplified Chinese:三时; traditional Chinese:三時; pinyin:Sān Shí) are three divisions of time following Buddha's passing. The Latter Day of the Law is the third and last of the Three Ages of Buddhism. Mappō or Mofa (Chinese:末法; pinyin:Mò Fǎ, Japanese: Mappō), which is also translated as the Age of Dharma Decline, is the "degenerate" Third Age of Buddhism.
