This study offers a genealogical investigation of the modern manufacture of the Buddha' birthplace at Lumbini, in Nepal's rural Terai region. Throughout the twentieth century, Asian and non-Asian actors employed the cross-cultural prestige of Lumbini in their overlapping agendas. These efforts emerged in response to the Buddhism's disembedding from traditional socio-political institutions under colonial governance across South and Southeast Asia and were further spurred by the rapid globalization characteristic of the mid-twentieth century. Lumbini was conscripted into colonial regimes of power, and also emerged as symbolic capital in the formation of national narratives within post-colonial India and Nepal. I argue that Lumbini presents a unique and interesting case of a protracted process of "heritagization" that is both multivalent and multivocal. As Buddhists have sought to ensure the survival of the Buddha's dispensation (sasana) in modernity, they have mobilized Lumbini as a powerful symbol of peace, brotherhood, and global connectivity in conjunction with the prevailing logics of their non-Buddhist contemporaries. Focusing on Lumbini's modern (re)discovery and its successive development highlights conjunctures between "Buddhist modernism" and the secularizing processes of heritage conservation and display. This study finds that trans-Asian flows of investment in reconstituting the Buddha's birthplace throughout the twentieth century are antecedents to emergent forms of geopolitical and "geo-cultural" (Winter 2019) imaginations in the contemporary, as evidenced by Lumbini's inclusion in China's Belt and Road Initiative.
