Buddhism - Declined or Brutalized in the land of its birth?

Well then why did Hinduism reject Charvaka/Lokayata then? They are pure atheistic, amoral,scientific materialist philosophies...You can stretch Hinduism only so much before it stops being Hinduism


Please donot confuse amoral with immoral



Stop preaching...I am a practicing Buddhist..I know what my Teachings say
I seriously doubt.You are just a false flag Pakistani.
 
Shows your ignorance.....Anatta is the Pali for An-Atma (Non-Self Concept) it has nothing to do with Ananta which is infinity...Anyways Buddha heavily discouraged speculation regarding Eternity cum Infinity

Stop preaching...I am a practicing Buddhist..I know what my Teachings say

As far as I know ; Buddhists dont go around proclaiming their superiority

You clearly have some deep underlying issues

Look at the contrast above between an incredibly ill-equipped member (subtle pun intended) and Our Lordship of Puri. It is this that prevents me from taking an axe to him.

Dont make fun of our Gods you ..................................
 
Buddhism is not about belief..It's about experience..Buddhism talks about rebirth NOT reincarnation....reincarnation is the same soul going through different lives and bodies...

Rebirth is about the changing nature of the self from moment to moment....as if each moment is a NEW rebirth


These things are beyond the scope of this thread and beyond the assimilation capability of Hinduism..Let's leave it at that

Rebirth is not about changing oneself from moment to moment in the same life time rather it is the same soul donning different bodies before it attains nirvana (moksha). This is the reason why the soul of Bodhisattva takes the form of poor Brahman to Wealthy trader to Potter's son or King of Elephants or baby Elephant etc.

Rebirth in atheistic philosophies of Buddhism and Jainism is exactly same as that of the theistic vedics philosophies like Vaishnavism and Shaivism.

It is also incorrect to say Buddhism did not recognize Varnas. There are plethora of Buddhist jataka stories which allude to rich Vaishya or poor Brahmin or powerful kings but what it did was to do away with the need to follow any rituals (This is similar thought of Shaivism too) as the focus was on how the humans should live on earth rather than focusing too much on before and after life. The logic was simple. Why theorize and worry about something that we do not know instead let's focus on things that we know and that we can control. Hence Buddhism assumes the theory of steady state universe while vedics philosophies like Vaishnavism and Shaivism believe in the the Big bang theory (Hiranya Garbha - Golden womb/egg).

Rebirth is about a soul (Aatma) taking one body after other.

Reincarnation is about Supreme Soul (Paramaatma) taking one form or the other.

Since atheistic philosophies of Buddhism and Jainism only have the concept of Rebirth and Reincarnation while theistic vedics philosophies like Vaishnavism and Shaivism have both Rebirth and Reincarnation.

r Brahmins like the Joshis and Pants from Maharashtra, Gairolas from Bengal and Negis from Gujarat

actually joshis are largest and purest brahmin class in Saurashtra. infect joshi is signature surname of Gujaratis like patel. i have many joshi friends and family members they are typically pale skinned people with heavy west Asian influence(refined nose) my Grandmother is a joshi and she is the reason i had blue eyes when i was young.

i dont know much about pants and negis but i am sure they are as marathi as you are.
 
MARATHA Soldiers who destroyed the Mughal empire
Bengali there is a poem which mother's sings to make their child's sleep.
It narrates sleep my son otherwise Bargis will come. It's in the same line how gabbar Singh advertised himself in soley.
Now who are these Bargis. A slang for Martha's because of their atrocities during their raid to Bengal

Yup. We were badasses.

On a continental scale.

Cheers, Doc
 
still lost to the high IQ war manoeuvres of Ali Vardi Khan....There is no excuse for that loss, really NONE...SMDH
I have always tried to find out the exact barbarism of Mahratta forces in Islamic Bengal. I have never found one except for this poem. Do you have some famous massacres or razed city/villages list?

And no. I am not Bengali.

There was only Brahmanism then..No Hinduism...No temples then..Only Vedas and Fire sacrifices..Buddha rejected the Vedas and any authority derived from the same...
Stick to this line or something similar to this. You will be the next Indian Think Tank soon. :)

There are many famous lullabies in Bengal regarding Bargis/Borgis which even I heard as a toddler..But I had absolutely NO idea till my mid-twenties that Bargis meant Marathas....Later on further digging, I found out Muslim Bengalis and Bangladeshis EXPLICITLY know that Bargis mean Marathas..I personally have a very favourable view of the Marathas and that's why never considered digging deep into Maratha atrocities....eventhough all the three-four major wars of Marathas happened around my hometown.....The Marathas had reached the limits of their expansion in eastern India by late 1740s I feel..so even if the British failed to take India, Maratha borders world not have extended any further into Bengal...the reason was because of extremely High Battle IQ of Half-Arab Ali Vardi Khan..the way he used cannons is the stuff of legends..you see proto-engineering coming up in many parts of India by the middle or late 18th century

If by Hinduism you mean every damn philosophy or epistemology that was developed in-situ in the Indian sub-continent, then yes Buddha was a Hindu...If by Hinduism you mean that you cannot criticize the Vedas, then NO--he was not a Hindu

What is High Battle IQ?


showing tactical ingenuity in the heat of battle... of course any sort of intelligence is highly correlated with the general factor Intelligence measured in IQ tests ..(IQ score)

Never came across this term. Read a lot of military books - but never came across this.
Is it genetic? Since you mentioned half Arab...
