What's new

Do you have any questions about China?

I know u are trying hard to flame here but nonethless ....in hinduism we consider guatam buddha as a reincarnation of vishnu(one of the gods)...and mostly all the principles of buddhism are there in hinduism so maybe there were few conversion to buddhism.....U trying to project as we hindus hate buddhist is a totally false claim as he has the same respect as other gods

flaming or not flaming is your interpretation. I am curious why Buddhism is represented by such a small no of followers in india! Their no is even much much smaller than Sikhs, Christians ... it is just ABNORMAL! Buddhism flourishes strongly in many other parts of Asia including greater China but not in india!
 
why Buddhism is whittled down to the tiniest most miniscule proportion in india?

Because it originated as an opposition to Hinduism, it was hated by Hindu priests. However, they were unable to stop it from growing and from achieving a great deal of philosophical growth as well, for 1400 years. This period of time caused Buddhism itself to go through many changes. In 800 AD, a very strong intellectual challenge to Buddhism was mounted by a Saivite priest who refined the philosophy of Advaita, with which he achieved great success in religious and philosophical discussions. These were considered very significant tests of relevance for winning royal favour. By this time, Buddhism had ceased to be a revolutionary, anti-establishment movement, and depended on royal patronage. There was a significant shift in favour of the revived Hinduism, and a decline in state sponsorship of Buddhism.

Buddhism still continued until the period 1000 AD to 1300 AD. However, from those years onwards, there were repeated attacks on north Indian kingdoms by Afghanistan- and Persia-based Turkish kingdoms, who gradually ground down the resistance of the Rajput kings who ruled north India then, and progressively established themselves in north India. These Turkish, Afghan and Persian conquerors slew Buddhist monks in large numbers, and destroyed their monasteries and their places of pilgrimage. From after this period, Buddhists merged more or less rapidly with the surrounding population of Hindus. Some parts that were Buddhist are thought to have converted in very large numbers to Islam.

It is not clear why Buddhism was so vulnerable to the challenge of Islam, and Hinduism was apparently less vulnerable.

the untouchbles are not allowed to wine drink or dine with the brahmins under the same roof @cktard!






It applies to you! STFU!

Please stop being so vulgar and aggressive all the time. It is very unpleasant.

Not surprising. There are reasons for this.

Chinese civilization is the only one that has distinctively progress till today without major interruptions by the same type of people (Of course, Chinese here). Maybe that is the way to be said.

Or go to some parks in early morning in China, ask humbly to get lessons in Taiji from the elderly if you can manage to speak in understandable Chinese!

I will not beat around the bush with a reply now either.

The vulgarity was in post #378. I ignored it out of respect for the excellent thread. It is really exemplary and the OP deserves praise.

It is clear that you have no respect for India or Indians. That is all right. Both the country and its citizens will manage to survive. At least have some respect for the excellent display of cooperation and openness by your fellow countrymen, which has won admiration from all. If you cannot contribute to it, at least do not mess it up.

May be then it was not because of foreign rulers. As like there was some other thread which was saying Buddhism was demolished by Hindu kings and brahmins.
Another reason could be, Hindus started claiming budha as avatar of Vishnu and started considering him as part of Hinduism.
Later generation would not have found the difference btw Hinduism and Buddism.

Does Kala Tantra revelations have to do anything with this vulnerability?
 
If you have not heard serfdom, I have to say that you almost know nothing about the true face of dalai lama. If you know his past and his absolute power over more than 90% serfs there, you will totally understand why he is so keen to return to power. He was viewed as a god and he could kill anyone there and those serfs who viewed him as god would have been probably happy to die. Ironic? right?


The issue of serfdom that u have raised i was not aware of it .... As Buddhism is a peaceful religion in india we just consider him to be the head of buddhism so more or less like a religious head .......

As per the CIA part I am not aware of the freedom fighters being trained but i head read it in a book of B.Raman a former R.A.W operative that usa and india both had under taken some operations against china ...though not sure about the kind of operation..... and it is no secret that intelligence agencies do have such tasks
 
only one question : some indian brothers think of Pakistani messile technology to be borrowed from china, what about that school of thought??

and finally one thing, a lot of love for chinese....:)
 
BTW, tibetian buddism is way brutal. In addition, you do know a lot of normal buddism fobidden things are not actually forbidden within tibetian buddism.

CIA trained them in India. You think India would not know about that??? They both participated and helped with the training.

So forget mentioning those peaceful dalai lama's ugly face!

It is clear that you have no respect for India or Indians.

I think our proportion are not equal There are 10s of thousand times indian China bashers here on PDF!

Good for the admiration! It is long overdue from you guys! Hope my countrymen are not cheated or behaved as hypocrites! I have contributed a lot on this thread!

only one question : some indian brothers think of Pakistani messile technology to be borrowed from china, what about that school of thought??

and finally one thing, a lot of love for chinese....:)

The good feeling is mutual! I am not sure about that may be someone more capable can answer your question!
