These Buddhist champions never talk about the burning down of Nalanda University (forget about rebuilding it) ... never oppose with naming it as Bakhtiyarpur!!

[parikatkuri]

Kudos to Advocates like Sai Deepak and Vishnu Jain who are constantly fighting for the sanatan cause in this civilization battle of survival without compromising on their position whatsoever. #We want all our temples back#.

[murthyvvbs]

Angkor watt temple was original a Vishnu temple- buddhists gone there demolished all vishnu idols & installed there all budhas idol, this Angkor watt temple is in Kambodia.

[pagangods]

Re -Conversion to Sanatan dharm happened by arguments by Shankaracharya, sri ramanuj and sri madhva.Not by force.🚩

[bishwaraj]

They say pashupathi was buddists, then I ask them what was it before buddist then? And they seem to hasitated.

❝ From 986 CE, the Turks started raiding northwest India from Afghanistan, plundering western India early in the eleventh century. Forced conversions to Islam were made, and Buddhist images smashed, due to the Islamic dislike of idolatry. Indeed in India, the Islamic term for an 'idol' became 'budd'.❞
— Peter Harvey, An Introduction to Buddhism

[samdayeharricharan]

Hindus have always been tolerant and accepting of other religions. The
Bhuddists who feel this way are very ungrateful.
Which country welcomed the Dalai Lama with open arms????

[NativeVsColonial]

❝ No doubt that the fall of Buddhism in India was due to the invasions of the Muhammadans; Islam came out as the enemy of the 'But'. The word 'But' as everybody knows, is the Arabic word and means idol. Thus, the origin of the word indicates that in the Muhammadan mind, idol worship had come to be identified with the Religion of Buddha; The mission to break the idols thus became the mission to destroy Buddhism. Islam destroyed Buddhism not only in India but whenever it went.❞
— Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (Father of the Indian Constitution)

[tivo]

Yes. I have seen and realised it too ... In south east Asia in the ASEAN countries Buddhists have converted all the ancient Hindu temples in Buddhist. Even in China too

[saubhagya]

Hinduism is extremely tolerant which is a strength but many times this strength becomes weakness.Many religions born out of it & try to supress the other religion of the same fold .
* Camodia's worlds biggest Vishnu mandir complex converted into a budha temple is best example of that .

To divide Budhhisim and Hinduism away is the main agenda. Budhhisim is as much part of Sanatan Dharma as is modern Hinduism. It is another way of philosophysing the same core concepts. There are many schools of thought in the Dharmic traditions and Buddhisim is one of the most distinct and at one time the very popular amongst them. It is all Kalachakra just like the way Vedic gods like Indra or Varun are hardly worshipped today. Trying to divide our belief systems is the biggest agenda of foreign powers. Most in Indian Kings have always patronised all schools with some exceptions and at some times some preferences. Same temples have motifs from both. Let us not turn this into a divisive agenda.

[apostate]

Buddha never “rejected” the caste system because it was the social arrangement of his day - he merely emphasised that it should be a merit-based system and not birth-based.

Buddha’s libertarian and anti-establishment views on caste are echoed repeatedly and frequently in the Hindu literature as well. The difference being - Buddha’s views were adopted in toto by his followers and non-discrimination was practiced in admitting members of all castes to the Sangha. But within the Hindu collective, conservatism and liberalism continued to contest with each other - due no doubt to the multiplicity of gurus and their divergent views. There was only one primary Buddha Sangha but hundreds of Hindu Sanghas.

Some examples:–

The Buddha:– "Not by birth is one an outcast; not by birth is one a brahman. By deeds one becomes an outcast, by deeds one becomes a brahman." (Vasala Sutta 27 )

Buddhism is not a religion. Buddhists are a group of people among the sanatanis who followed Gautama buddha teachings. This is also same in respect of Jains.

[reynolddsouza]

'The diggings suggest that people using Northern Black Polished Ware (NBPW) first occupied the disputed site at Ayodhya, in the period 1000 BC – 300 BC. No structures of this period have been found in the small area excavated, but the material culture shows terracotta figurines of female deities with archaic features, beads of terracotta and glass, wheels and fragments of votive tanks. An important find includes a round signet with a legend in Asokan Brahmi.
“very uncomfortable evidence, for no one had expected the beginnings of Ayodhya to be as late as that (seventh century BC at the earliest)”. In simple language, this meant that contemporary Ayodhya did not have the antiquity to have been the theatre of events described in the epic. B.B.Lal.

[rajkumarmaity]

I met buddhist people in real life. They are the ardent heater of "Sanatan Hindu Dharma". Because of them Tibbet, Thailand and so on countries were separated from "Bharatbarsha".

[XXYYZZ]

THOSE BUDHHISTS WHO TALK OF IT BEING DISASSOCIATED FROM DHARMIC TRADITIONS ARE DIVISIVE.

[aswinsoundararajan]

[sktc]

That is a fact-- where's the reference?.. 😅😅

[uddhavpriyadas]

Around 3:10 he says Radical Buddhist missionary destroyed Hindu temple. Any reference ?
