Chinese Buddhist monk and scribe Sehi had taken the name Faxian, "("Splendor of Religious Law").

Stirred by a profound faith to go to India, the "Holy Land" of Buddhism, Faxian has from 399 led pilgrimages through India and Central Asia to gather and copy sacred texts of the various Buddhist schools.

He is most known for his pilgrimage to Lumbini, in Nepal, “the birthplace of Lord Buddha.”
