Why do you think Buddhism disappeared from India? Comment below and join the conversation.

[@harshar_reddy]

Soon hinduism also will disappear from india😢

[@mattdamon2084]

It's not disappear, actually it forced to be separated from Hinduism in name of religion, While hinduism is only relegion which destroys any philosophy or statement that defines religion, Instead it shows path as karma ... A good & meaningful karma .

[@erwinmasusu4342]

Adi Sankara is commonly attributed to the revival of Hindu philosophy through debates and discourses throughout India. Before his time Buddhism was very prevalent in India. Remember that in those days, if a local ruler switched religion, all his subjects followed suite.

[@techymangal8123]

Hindusim is fulfill in it and Hindus people didn't need it ,that's why but both hindusim and buddism both are very good Another reason is that Hindus belive in good and Buddhism is related to Gautam Buddha teaching

[@playhard719]

I think people ignore the history of Buddhism in southern India, the rivalry between Jainism and Buddhism, how Bakthi movement put an end to the growth of both Buddhism and Jainism in Tamil countries. How Palla empire of Bengal used Buddhism to attract southeast and east Asian traders, and how Cholas take the control of the trade back from Buddhist Kingdoms of India and outside, all of those played a huge part in why Buddhism can't take a hold in India and the final nail in coffin came in the form of Islamic invasion, almost every Buddhist majority kingdom in India and outside became Islamic nation.

Well not really, Buddhism had 'almost' gone extinction from India for over 600 years not until the early 20th century because of prominent missionary figures like Anagarika Dhammapala and Dr Ambeddekar it experiences a noticeable revival. Within 100 years the number of Buddhist adherents only takes up less than 0.7% of the Indian population.

Being a German you may like to visit Das Buddhistische Haus in Berlin Frohnau in Germany. It is the oldest Theravada Buddhist Temple in Europe.Founded in 1924 by a German Buddhist named Dr. Paul Dahlke and after he died in 1928, the property was bought in 1957 by a young Sinhalese businessman from Sri Lanka, named Asoka Weeraratna. The latter founded the German Dharmaduta Society in 1952 and led the first Buddhist Mission to Germany from Sri Lanka in 1957 with three Buddhist monks. It is a fascinating story. Das Buddhistische Haus will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding on August 3rd and 4th of this year 2024. You may get more information by contacting the Temple.

I was born in India as a Hindu. Am always with gauthama.

Buddhism has become so ritualistic that even gouthama is torchered to have sex in tantric Buddhism. Poor gauthama the Buddha. He was 100% against all rituals and want to creat a humanity of awareness and consciousness. This is sad and ignorance of monkey mind. 🙏

Although Buddhism originated in India, the Sinhalese of Sri Lanka have managed to maintain Buddhism for a long time by using very hard work in the history of thousands of years. Sri Lankan Buddhists were very dedicated to rebuilding the destroyed temples, facing more than 30 years of litigation in Indian courts to assert the rights of Buddhists to all major Buddhist temples in India.

[@nayanthidesilva8660]

Yes, Prince Sidhuhath was born in Lumbini, Nepal. As a Buddhist, I also went to that place and worshiped. We thank the government and the people of Nepal for protecting that place well. But the Buddhists know very well that Indians use the word Buddhism only for diplomatic strategies and to earn money from tourists who come to visit Buddhist temples. In fact, it is because of the intervention of the Buddhist monks of Sri Lanka and the Buddhists of the main Buddhist countries that the most important Buddhist temples of the Buddhists are maintained. This is the reality of Buddhism in India.

@@ChinthakaKulathunge Not just Ramayana, Mahabhart are fictional but vedas are too. There is absolutely NO historical evidence of vedas. Oldest manuscript is of 1464 AD (almost no one in India knows this). Our Brahmin, communist historians have taught as vedas are of 1500 BC. There is absolutely zero evidence of vedas. There was no Sanskrit. Sanskrit is also a later language made later. There is a lot and lot that are getting unfolded. For Example, our historians are absolutely silent before Gautama Buddha. I Know now that there were 27 Buddhas prior to him like Konagaman buddha, Kassap buddha, Tissa buddha, dipankara buddha, medhankara buddha etc. There was no such thing as Hinduism in India before 8th-9th century. Turks, Iranians and Arab invaders used to call people after Indus as "Hindus". Even this word is not ours, then how can we belong to a religion named Hinduism? All archeological digging has only found stuffs related to Buddhism. Archeological survey of India knows this very well. But now many people(still very less minority) of us know. when you ask any laymen in India about Buddha, they will say Buddha was a Hindu before. This is the level of Brainwashing. Final Blow to Buddhism in India came in 13th century, when Turks destroyed lots of Buddhist monasteries in Present day Bihar. Turks established Rule and Brahmins under them established social order that completely ended Buddhism in India. We were punished for studying and was only reserved for Brahmins. We were reduced to low caste who are born to serve them. Legacy of Asoka, Buddha disappeared altogether in 13th century. British then read the Dhamma script of Asoka for 1st time in 1837,till that year we had no idea we ever had Asoka, Buddha. We were only told about fictional Ramayana, Mahabharat etc. It's just heartbreaking what has happened in India in past 10-12 centuries.

I am from Kathmandu, Nepal. Kathmandu was rooted with Vajrayana Buddhist Practice which not only led the spiritual practice but also a reformist socio-political practice till Adi-Sankracharya forcefully imposed Shaivist Hinduism, and corrupting most of the Vajrayana practice. When I visited Maharastra, I found the similar invasive stories. Most of the rock carved architecture seem to be an articulated space for Buddhist Monastic teaching still preserved (and ironically by British Government) such as in Ajanta, and forcefully converted to Hindu temples such as in Alora and Elephanta (You can see an artless establishment of Shivlinga over Padma-aasan). The religio-political discrimination reached to a point that most of the Buddist practioners were deregotarily suppresed as Dalits, later to be emancipated by Bhim Rao Ambedkar. Similar story in Kathmandu, but highly scholarly and intelligent Buddhist Practioners in Kathmandu (the Vajracharyas and Shakyas) secretly fought back such tendencies forcing Hinduism to be merged into Tantric Buddhist Practice. (So, the practice of Hidduism in Kathmandu is so different from the rest of the world!) Hindu practices are seamlessly merged into Buddhist Tantric Practice, most of the Buddist Dharma Protector Deities taken to be manifestation of Shiva. As of now, there is seamless merge of both practices.

Some religions build Men up, making them feel like powerful heads of household. 3. Poverty made some not want to celebrate holidays, as they felt they could not afford to. 4. So religions did not encourage certain career choices. 5. Some followed their husband's religion, leaving their own. 6.

Clearly people do not realize India was home to 7 school of thought within Hinduism one of which was Charvaka- Atheist . Jainism , though Sikhism came much later. Buddhism is one of the finest religion but we always had option. Palki misses the point that Buddhism in our land Kalinga was older than Asoka's patronage and conversion to Buddhism , present day Odisha India, We have been Hindus for centuries then Buddhist for centuries then Jains for century under Jain king Kharavela. Then back to Hinduism😅

I have been following your news for a long time since as I consider you, Ms. Palkyi Ji , one of the outstanding, bold and honest news reporters. However, this time I am surprised that you have not mentioned a word on Tibet, one of the most faithful Buddhist countries in Asia with 90% of its people are Buddhist follower. As for now, the Tibetan Buddhist is one of the most influential and profound holder of the Buddhist tradition in the world. So I am wondering why you have not mentioned a word on Tibetan Buddhist and its long history since 7th century of Buddhist practice, which are widely accepted and following in the world.

[@harrypothead4575]

First of all Tibet is not a country but a province of China. Second, Buddhism spread to that Tibetan region from Nepal. Nepali princess Bhrikuti and Buddhabhadra spread Buddhism in Tibet and rest of China. Get your facts straight boy.

It is very late for Tibet to believe in Buddhism. Northern China has long believed in Mahayana Buddhism, which was transmitted from Afghanistan.

Thanks Palki, it’s very informative documentation.❤

[@BuddhaSprit]

Miss Palki Sharma, thank you for acknowledging the birthplace of Lord Buddha. However, in this entire video, there isn't a single clip of Lumbini, where Buddha was born. Therefore, before creating a video, please conduct thorough research on how the birthplace of Buddha looks. If there are mistakes in such minor details, how can we trust the accuracy of the information you provide?

[@try_dc6366]

What's the deal with these falsified nationalistic narratives? Huh. Can't you digest the fact that there was no Nepal or India as a country at that time. It was all Indian civilization. Siddhartha Gautama as a prince was born in what is current day Lumbini, Nepal. He became enlightened and transformed into Buddha under Bodhi tree in what is current day Bodh Gaya, Bihar, India. So, there is no mine or yours. We have a shared past. Simple. That shouldn't be hard to understand. I don't know why many Nepalis become insecure and sometimes start claiming unreasonable things like Buddhism originated in Nepal. No, read history properly please. Educate yourself from books & archaeological evidences not Whatsapp disinformation.

Why are you people so petty? Can you make a better mini-documentary than this? It was about how Buddhism spread throughout Asia. The focus was not on Buddha's birthplace.

Tibetan Buddhism is spreading all around the world by the Grace of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. His Holiness works tirelessly spreading the message of Peace, kindness, and compassion all around the world. Many people around the world are taking great interest in Tibetan Buddhism. Buddhism is the science of mind. We are grateful to Lord Buddha and India for us to be able to spread the Buddhism all around the world!!!🙏🤲🙏
