Barlaam and Josaphat (Ioasaph) were believed to have reconverted India after her lapse from conversion to Christianity. They were numbered among the christian saints. Centuries ago likenesses were noticed between the life of Josaphat and the life of the Buddha. The resemblances are in incidents, doctrine and philosophy. Barlaam's rules of abstinence resemble the Buddhist monk's.
