Ashoka dhamma

Ashoka’s Dhamma, according to the Ashoka's edict, is not a religion or religious system, but a moral law (a common code of conduct). Dhamma was completely cosmopolitan, capable of universal application and acceptance as the essence of all religions. Ashoka took some measures for the propagation of the Dhamma in his empire through his Dhamma Mahamattas, undertaking Dhamma by regulation .

The source of Ashoka’s ideal was his Dhamma because he thinks; it is a code of certain ethical principles and humanitarian ideals with its universal dimension. So, he wanted to spread the concept of Dhamma to unite the various sects and sections of the society and to promote the ideas of peaceful coexistence and universal brotherhood. In order to propagate the Dhamma and the teachings of the Buddha, he sent nine missionaries. Each missionary was consisting of five theories in order that the Upasampada, the Ordination Ceremony, could be performed.
