Summary:

The Awakening of Faith is a text of Mahayana Buddhism. Attributed to the Indian master Asvaghosa, it is more likely that the attribution was an honorific appellation due to the profundity of the treatise. Although often omitted from lists of canonical Buddhist texts, the Awakening of Faith strongly influenced subsequent Mahayana doctrine.
