Gautum buddha made adjustments to hinduism and they believe that that makes it different enough from hinduism to classify as a different religion. This is THEIR way a thinking. Being someone that believes in sanatan dharma, you should respect that or debate their ideas if you don't think they're right, not try to delegitimize their leader by a simple "not enlightened" statement.

All static philosophies can only exist in the "season" of their respective countries. Like you can only talk about sleeping outside in the summer... That idea will get you killed in the cold winter.

I asked why Buddhist statute is in the temple and the Hindu priest said Buddha was reincarnation of their god. Then I migrated to Europe. About 2 decades later, I visited to Burma and dropped to that Ram temple. Still there Buddha statute with more lights and decorations. I donated money to that Ram temple. I dropped that Ram temple in 2004, 2013, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 (then no more due to Covid pandemic, if all Covid pandemic ease down then I'll visit to that temple again and donate money).

Hello, pls stop being a intellectual POWERFUL and TIMID inefficient LOBBY urself, under the mask of Magnanimity that even Modi is showing now to own Indians for VOTEBANK in the name of RELIGIOUS HATRED to win elections. If u observe we all might agree with ASHOKA AND PRITHVIRAJ SYNDROMES of being too magnanimous to enemies because of incomplete understanding of DHARMA AND a VALUE IN UNDERSTANDING HOW TO HONOUR AND PROTECT own CIVILISATION. But if u watch the video oce again, it is the lack of integrity between own BUDDHIST TRADERS and HINDU TRADERS that allowed the MUSLIMS AND LATER THE BRITISH to take over india, and the miscalculation of Buddhist monks probably due to indifferences and looking down upon Buddhists and their traders in protecting a true integrity in CIVILISATIONAL VALUES that arose from Hindu traders towards Buddhist values, till 712 AD or so that led Buddhist sangha and their supporting Trade unions to START INVITING MUSLIM INVADERS into the country. To which their own universities and Buddhist monks themselves fell prey to and were mass slaughtered too. It is infact true Hindu Manu Dharma is mainly MISOGYNIST and ARCHAIC and hence hypocrit due to lack of inner values to follow among our own indians. Which I see Modi and BJP seems to encouraging as a Democratically elected leadership through mere hindu beliefs alone, more than values. This will have consequemces in longterm and its not enough to only try to protect borders ALONE of India, but to try create INNER REFORMS within the value systems of the country, which Iam sure MODI is too old to be able to do whats needed and we need to wait a CRISIS for the needed changes to happen, along with the events that keep happening all along the world too PARALLEL AND SIMULTANEOUSLY, with RUSSIA NATO crisis starting and china threatening India too as a Communist leadership. The CORRUPTION AND WRONG PARENTING methods on the next generation is too high and crisis is what we are getting closer to as a Democracy since the time Gandhis and Nehrus are chosen and Democracy run the English way, and not choosing fighters like Netaji, Bhagat singh, Aazaad and also ofcourse the values they stand for, being not chosen. Good luck to u and ur retired Army officer whoever is totally living in his own private cocoons as chamcha to Indian government that Modi is trying to build for the MILITARY alone at the cost of values in the country, and those whoever not facing the CORRUPTION AND HARASSMENTS and Atrocities of Democracy of the social injustices at all, and will have many comfort zones how Modi is better protecting the Military alone compared to Congress, who failed even that. It cannot be forgotten that DEMOCRACY is a bad way to choose proper leadership since the MASSES AND WEAKER have a chance to elect a weaker leadership based on blind beliefs and Modi shouldnt think he is smarter than SOCRATES and Chanakya to simply do whatever he wants and whenever he wants to do anything .

Besides Buddhism started with the Gautam Buddha, he first tried to find answers within Hinduism he was not happy, then he met with Jain munis, he couldn't find about the truth he was looking for then he went to the path of salvation himself where he got the keval gyan(the complete truth) after which Buddhism originated, so it came to be known after a single person hence it is not older then 3000 years. But Jainism is older than the time itself, you can't prove that Hinduism is older but you find Shiva and Vishnu idols from Harappa civilization, the same way you find Idols belonging to Bhagwan Adinath from Harappa sites, so Jainism is probably one of the oldest path which was being followed.

True. I am a proud Hindu. Mandukya Upanishad proves that Nihilism or Sunyavada of Buddhism is illogical as something (the world) cannot come out of nothing. Our Upanishads are the deepest and most scientific treatises of the ultimate Truth. Sankaracharya had the strength of the Upanishads to support him in his debates with people of other faiths. The sheer logic of what he spoke (echoing the Upanishads) was enough to defeat the other debaters. But Hindus have the greatest reverence for Buddha and his peace loving nature. He preached love and peace. Later Buddhism degenerated (because of its later developments into mahayana, heenayana etc) and started practices which were to some extent contrary to what Buddha preached. Islam was single-handedly responsible for conversion of many Asian and African countries into a religion through sheer aggression and not because of the depth of its philosophy. People mostly converted for economic reasons (avoiding taxes, better trading opportunities etc) or out of fear.

Read history how and why buddhism decline

[@deepaksinghrawat5246]

(Not from video content) The final reason for declining Buddhism in India was difference between Hinduism and Buddhism, Hinduism worked on all aspect of field and life. It had all aspects philosophies, science, maths, literature, music, politics and war. So it was at every home in many aspects. But Buddhism was mostly on the meditation, and philosophies and teachings of Buddha (especially in india). So it was mostly in a concentrated form in monestries and other central points. So during Islamic invasion, it was easy for Islamists to uproot the concentrated form of Buddhism, than a decentralised Hinduism.

The Buddha preached that if we get rid of desires and aspirations we will be happy True but what he failed to realize was that without desires or aspirations we would not much of a life! Humanity has gotten this far because we reached for the stars, we dreamed Otherwise we might as well be animals And that is the sad truth that most people - Christians, Muslims and Buddhists will come back as lower life forms - they will get the life they want - an easy lazy life with nothing to do - trees, dogs sit around doing nothing & that is their fate, that they CHOSE!

They require immense sacrifice, commitment and dedication. Forget those two the majority of Christians, Muslims and Hindus are basically atheists. They follow a religion in name only because it's convenient. Not to mention such a strict discipline like Buddhism. Jainism is even more so. Just because some fool says he's whatever on a survey doesn't mean he actually is a specific religion. Go out in the street, I'd be surprised if out of 100 so called Hindus you talk to... If even five of them has fully read *any* *single* religious text. Bhagvat Gita or Vedas or Upanishads or anything else. Yet they all call themselves Hindu. You will find that more of them actually follow clowns like 'Sadhguru' than texts left by actual saints and sages. You are probably also one of the fake/corrupt ones weather you realise it or not. Although I don't know your situation, just going off off statistics. They will also assert that they're 100% Hindu. It's just out of convenience and identity. Hindu to them is like being Indian or being Male/Female. Just another label which they identify with. Furthermore you will find even more clowns saying "I follow Shri Ram/Krishna :)". But when you ask what about them do you follow... There's no answer or very surface level answers like 'love' 'peace' and whatnot. 😂 They actually haven't read anything other than maybe some dumb TV serial if you're lucky. Seriously try this out. Although this might be hard to accept and you would want to accept them as Hindu anyways if you're one of the fakes as well. It's really eye opening. I've personally tried this. I'd say, easily 90% + of the world is atheistic or even hedonistic in practise. And if you're Buddhist, try this out with Buddhists as well. The situation is almost the same.

Another reason I can give which is held by the Jains. They say that the difference between Buddhism and Jainism is that Jainism developed a strong community of householders along with the institutions for monks. At bad times this householder community came to rescue for their monks and nuns with strong support. Buddhism however never developed any distinct community of laity. The householders remained indistinguishable from the Hindus. Therefore, with the destruction of Buddhist Sanghas and Biharas, Buddhism was wiped out from India.

Not a single evidnece of your imaginary kings and gods ever found on jambudweep land. And what meena's or other did? This is what happens when history is written by brahmanvaadi mind . You people only praise yourself in your religious scriptures and even put yourself above god sometimes and simultaneously described other especially shudras tribals and dalits as unpure and untouchables and worthless . So what someone can expect when history is written by brahmanvaadi mind ?? They never teach Savitri Bai Phule who opens first women's school in asia but when he used to teach , you people used to throw trash on her ,this is what your culture teaches you?? So if you castiest people can't india's forst women teacher and his work for women's then what else one can expect from braanvaadi mind ?? But actually we are not an inch worry about this , bcz I call them fool who expect something from others , when you expect means you have to compromise , so the day will come when manuvaad ends and equality will flourish in india. But most important thing here is that: there is aslo not a single name Of any Meena's or any other SC ST OBC , who did slavery and mukhbiri for British and Mughals . But list is endless of manuvaadi when it comes licking of boots and slavery for Mughals and British both and betrayed others indians on their own land , after all, be it Mughals or be it British or Brahmins all are foreign forces . Also can you tell me single manuvaadi kings who is able to rule whole india ?? Obviously Not a single one bcz you people don't know how to rule bcz you mind is always full of hatred . Today you people uses slogans like jai shivaji maharaj which was a shudra king but manuvaadio ne hi unke rajtilak ka sabse jyda virodh kiya , aur sabse achambhit baat to yeh ki tum logo ne shivaji ji mar gaye ,usi time u ke putra bhi aur manuvaad unke kamayi hui haddi par aaram se peshwas ban ke baith jaata hai aur Shivaji ke putro ki hataya ka blame mughlo par dal deta hai , abe agar Mughal unhe maarte to Mughal hi gaddi par baithte ?? Aur agar manuvaad unki gaddi par baith gaya to manuvaadi iska matlab mughlo ke slaves the aur unke liye kaam karte the . Lekin aaj dekho muslimo ko nishana banaya jaa raha hai , aur shudro ko hindu. To histroy me jhaakne se pata chalta hai ki , kaun moka dekh ke apna baap history me lagataar badalta aay hai.

Exactly, Buddhists point to one or two incidents as proof that Buddhism was driven out of India - never once acknowledging that Indians chose to be Hindu And the western racist media who see Buddhism as a white religion and of course Hinduism is a "darkie" religion, promotes that idea

As long as Hinduism is alive, Buddhism will be alive as well. Because the principles are the same, Buddha followed the practise of shiva and so are his disciples. So there isn't a basic difference between Hinduism and Buddhism!! Both teach the way of human life and how you understand it with inner engineering.

[@kphamcao]

Does Hindu support the caste system in India? The Buddha clearly rejected the caste system. We're all humans regardless of how we're born. If the Buddha is alive today he would reject most of your Hindu values.

[@ArghyadeepPal]

@@kphamcao You consider Hinduism just as a single thought, when it is an umbrella of different teachings and schools, like Shaivism, Vaishnavism, Advaita, and there is even an atheist school in Hinduism. So caste system was not a part of Hinduism as a whole, it was initially meant as a class system, where the society was classified into their occupation, just like what existed in every kingdom in the world at the time. But later it was concretized based on birth by Manusmriti, but that does not mean caste system was followed for the entire religion of Hinduism overall.

[@nazmulbhuiyan1982]

I am from Bangladesh, we know ordinary people of Bengal were mostly Buddhist before Islam, but what you ignore to mention is that most of our Muslim rulers had Hindu lineage and they converted to Islam out of their own volition and when needed they even fought against foreign invasion, Isa Khan fighting against Akbar is an example. Isa Khan was of Hindu lineage. Raja Ganesha is another Hindu ruler who had affinity towards Islam. Raja Ganesha had a soft corner for Islam despite defeating another Muslim ruler, so it was not under duress. Raja Ganesha's son became a Muslim and he was instrumental in converting Bengal to Islam, his birth name was Jadu, but he adopted the name Jalal Uddin Mohammad Shah. Don't mix Islam with invaders, the two are different, as it was also practice of local culture to destroy your enemies temples. Don't paint things in black and white terms, the world is full of grey.

[@meow-rh4yo]

We don't mix invaders with islam it's the muslims who thinks that they are descendants of the invaders they need to understand that they are the one who got forcefully converted by these invaders.

Totally different religions - Buddhism preaches running AWAY from life, Sikhism preaches running TOWARDS life!

[@ramaraksha01]

@Digital Bath Not much of an argument there - the Buddha left everything - his wife, his family, his throne - left it all to wander as a beggar Assume your son says, "I am going to leave home and become a beggar. live on the streets, sleep on the floor and just beg for my food and live like that" Would you say he is embracing life? The Buddha sought peace & joy & he said cut all desires and aspirations & one will be happy Yes but what he did not understand was that it is these desires and aspirations are what gives life meaning Without them we are no better than animals or trees Christians and Muslims also - running away from life - hoping that a Sugar Daddy in the sky will keep them in cozy comfort for eternity! The fools!

[@quasiosa]

@@ramaraksha01 It's not that easy to describe, Buddhists practiced violence for defence and were pro life and great kings, some corrupt people can't be generalized, after all Buddhism is our past, we should learn it without getting into religious mentality. We need to defend ourselves against Islam and Christianity.

[@ramaraksha01]

@@quasiosa Yes and that is what I am doing - telling people what they are choosing Christianity & Islam are primitive Master/Slave religions - "get down on our knees, kiss the master's butt and hope for a reward" - simple, primitive ideas of God These fools think they can run away from life and hide in a fantasy Buddhism unfortunately seems to follow the same path - this search for joy & happiness - cutting off desires and aspirations - then one just lives, just as a Tree lives, an animal lives Desires, aspirations are what has moved us forward - we have dominated the planet because of them That is the point that the Buddha missed

[@yashsah6531]

Sikhism will choose to fight till death against any enemies... Buddhism can be followed only whne you have no external threats to ur Life., Sikhism is followed when you have many external threats to your life. Hinduism is the what you follow when you realise life is not black and white, but grey. Life will always have some external threats and life still needs inner peace...

[@towardstruth2125]

It brought tears to my eyes! 😭😭I am born, brought up & live in Bengal. No trace of Buddhism here around me but believe me i was so infatuated with Buddhism when first read about it in my 5th standard History text book, that i felt an yearning to visit all the Buddhist sites mentioned in my book. The air of Bengal is still Buddhist you can derive it from the non agressive Bengali behaviour. Buddhism is pure spirituality of conciousness & it needs an enlightened BUDDHA to keep it's wheel moving, The later monks weren't enlightened & sccumbed to the lesiurely life of monasteries, to the jealousy against Brahmins, weren't farsighted to smell the intentions of the barbaric invaders & they were so shortsighted & dumb that they didn't understand the common Hindu public, they lived exclusive of the general masses thinking them to be inferior, all these factors backfired for it's decline. Had there been an enlightened BUDDHA beforehand that turmoil today Buddhism would have been regarded as a saviour of the whole subcontinent. Still no lessons learned by present day Buddhist followers, still they carry the same hatred against the Brahmins, still treating the common Hindus as inferiors & again befriending Islamic peoples. The executor religion who brutally massacred their monks, burnt & destroyed their monasteries and universities is again the caring friend of the so called Neo Buddhists. How can they do this friendship? Fake Buddhists! Can you tell who destroyed Buddhism & Buddhists monasteries in Nepal??
