One of Buddha's teachings is that you should never believe everything that you are told (Kalama Sutra) and you should use logical reasoning to seek truth. This video is a fine example of that teaching.
@匿名 You have Ashoka to thank for that.
no you get it wrong way, read the background story about Kalama Sutra. then you understand real meaning of that.

That true brother ! a d be mindful in one speech , think before you talk and don’t use the racist talk degrading about our Buddha, you know whom you are ., This is not a muslim video . Why you even came here to act stupid
Correction: Mahayana Buddhism is founded on the Sanskrit canon (not Chinese)
China 😂
How are you saying? Explain it
Mahayana also came from india..
Sanskrit has no right to compare buddhuism.sanskrit( Aryans )destroyed buddhism in india.
May be later this was translated from Sanskrit Canon to Chinese cannon like as Traveller came from China in India .
Buddha says: "When I am gone, if you see my teachings you see me."
Thus, if your practice Vipassana Meditation as taught by the Buddha, your doubts about his existence is completely gone.
There are no god damned sources of Vipassana breathing exercises having any relation to Buddhist teaching about changing the world. Vipassana shit is more about personal gratification than changing the world by examining it - which is what Buddha was talking about....

I once try to read vedas just out of curiosity, i can't understand literally any sentence there 🐧 so i don't know how it makes senses to believe that god is bunch of anim*ls and human with colors a lot of hands with tools just like what kids used to draw from their imagination
@@bjird7278 , what makes sense to you?.
Ashoka pillar still exists in Lumbini, Nepal. It's a wonderful and peaceful place. The remains of the palace where Siddhartha (Buddha) was brought up are also there. One must see it in his/her lifetime.
Because of Nalanda Books
Nepal has copyright on everything Buddhist! Any Indian who talks about even Sarnath is misleading or Sarnath must be in Nepal! What a miserable india hating Hindu hating country !
@@mikesheth5370 Subjugation is not tolerated anywhere. Urdu originated in India but you still hate Urdu calling it alien language brought over by Muslim invaders. Why? Years of subjugation by the Mughals. Now same thing is going on with English over Hindi supremacy. Why? Again, because of subjugation. Terrorism in Indo-Pak region is well-known and understandable but why is there terrorist activities in North-East India (Eg: Call for Nagalim)? Yes, there are plethora of causes but a major one is, again, subjugation. Nepal doesn't hate India. I love India. We all do. Nepal just doesn't like to be subjugated. Why hasn't India yet received and addressed the EPG report (Google it if you don't know)? That's an insult to a small landlocked country. Isn't that a form of subjugation?
@@gametoppler Tell me how Nepal is subjugated right now by India? Problem is nepalis blame india for all their problems and China is their saviour. I was disillusioned by everything Nepalis day they blamed Indian spy agency for killing their dynasty. No proof as RAW is very smart! No logic works here if you tell big section of Hindus had reverence for Nepali dynasty where as aam Nepali hated Royal house and thought with help of india they the Royals kept them backward. If there is unequal or explorative trade treaties peal can oppose it. If India exploits resources like minerals and electricity put a stop to it. If India recruits Gurkhas put a stop! No country should provide meceneries! And come out of unprovable conspiracy theories and giving breaks to China!
@@mikesheth5370 Don't try to blame everything on China, find an excuse and run away. China card won't help your cause. First answer my question. Why isn't EPG yet addressed despite years of diplomatic requests and urgency? Why? Isn't that subjugation or at the very least attempted subjugation of a sovereign nation?
Buddha seemed like a pretty chill guy, spent a lot of time thinking before he rushed into action and didn't wanna destroy anybody who didn't agree with him
not that this had much of an influence on the religious wars of Buddhist kingdoms, notably Sri Lanka and Burma
The Buddha rushed into no action
Sri Lanka was under rule of no religion when buddha determined that after the parnirvana, the relics must stay in Sri lanka for safety until 5000 years(Buddha's relics will come out after 5000 years from the death and they will vanish after they all coagulated together and performed the last preach, in that, all the people who hear and understand will be triumphed the nirvana). Becuase of that determination, the sri lanka will never come under the rule of another opposition until 5000 years
Showed middle finger to Vedas 👏👏
@@vult07 no he did not he might have disagreeed with the vedas and the Jains but never disrespected anyone
A little point to avoid misunderstanding. As a prince budda had a luxurious life. Once he left the palace he practiced extreme hunger and poverty to find whether he can attain enlightenment through that path. But he understood neither extreme luxury nor extreme pain going to take you to Enlightenment and followed the MIDDLE PATH (not extreme luxury nor extreme pain)

@@TruthSeeker69921 In buddhism, we dont worship a god. There's no concept of higher power. Its all about Nirvana.
@@TruthSeeker69921 except the 'aryan vaishnavism' isnt an ancient thing, and the Vedas were written by Aryans and encompassed the Unmanifest monotheism, God without form. Many deities were reverred yet reading Vedas and the Upanishads shows the belief in one God. Also the Aryans vedic religion and zoroastrianism have been proved to have evolved from the Proto-Indo European religion. The pre Aryan India was by no means a Monotheistic nation, and many Dravidian deities were absorbed into Aryan deities.

Love how this channel is flourishing and evolving. Keep up the great work!
One of his teachings is to always question everything and not blindfully put faith in anything..
So even questioning the proof of his existence is, in a (buddhist) way, a religious thing to do lol
Exactly ❤
One of the most important teachings: question everything.
Buddha preached this to a man called "Kalama". He was complicated by different opinions, came to Buddha & asked about his opinion. Buddha told him not to believe anything just because it is wrote, passed on by generations or told by anybody including Buddha himself, "unless you do not understand by yourself". You can find more on this in "Kalama Sutra" in Buddhist cannon.
This is one of the major differences Buddhism has from other religions.

@Sports Entertainment bro do you know the meaning of Harappa?
@Sports Entertainment History is a tool used by the victors to spin a narrative to suite their agenda.
One has to be a fool to not recognize this simple reality of life.
Your white worship and "west" worship blinds you to the reality of their narrative that seeks to spread their supremacy and belittle any other culture that laughs at their narrative.
That is how the Christian "crooked Cross / Hakenkreuz" of the Nazis became the Hindu "Swastika" in recent Historical Narrative.
Stop being a sepoy for the west to push their lies and narrative.
As for Hindu historical records, Start reading Hindu history books like the Purans and the "Ithihas".

@Alfred Wedmore There is also 1st Thessalonians 5:19-22, but this too may be in a different context than that of Siddhartha Gautama's. Thank you.
In Bhagvat Geeta, has similar phrases which Krishna tells Arjuna it is up to you whether you want to follow this or not.
Name Siddharth Gautama has a very beautiful meaning: 'Siddharth' means 'he who has found his true value/meaning in life' and 'Gautama' meaning 'someone who makes darkness go away'.
Wrong. Siddh means accomplished, artha means world / money. Siddhartha means one who is successful in the world.
Gautama comes from "Go" & "Tama" , Go means Cow, and Tama means many. Goutama means one who owns many cows or one who cares for many cows.
Its a bit silly to spin your own interpretation on the names.
@@zaxcollix123 With all due respect:
The name Gautam is one of the ancient Indian names and is derived from the Sanskrit roots "gŐ(गः)" and "tama (तम)". "Tama" means "darkness" and "gŐ" means inter alia "bright light". Together, they means the Sun.
@@ADP_111 LOL. The word "cow" literally came from the sanskrit root word "gou" or 'go" which means "cow".
गः = 'ga H" NOT "gŐ".
Tama = Many
TamaS=dark, lazy etc.
Gautama IS an ancient name and Rg veda mentions Gautama Maharishi several times And his name meant one who owned many cows. Including Kamadenu the ever giving eternal cow.
@@zaxcollix123 okk
Gautam is second name given him after his mother maha maya devi died...Maha prajapati gautami is his second mother sister of his own mother maha maya devi...Mr Ap dont comment non sense...every bodhisatvas left their homes in the search for answer
Many Bodhisattvas have been born in this world Last bodhisatva is prince siddhartha gautam was born in nepal but he rise as buddha in indian state
let me tell you that Siddhartha name has no meaning like hindu name does so don't try to mix buddhist ceremonial name into hindu name...Buddhism rise from india and it was destroyed in india in very first place by muslim empires and by hindus brahmin..

Very interesting and well presented.
Being a buddhist I too think some of the miracles mentioned in the scripts were aimed at creating devotion than documenting actual events.
According to Buddhist teaching buddha has achieved status to end his existence and he has asked his followers to follow Dhamma (Buddhist teachings) and always use inquiring mind and freedom to question anything.
Dhamma is more sacred than lord buddha. Buddha said that.
One who see through Dhamma are one who can see me. The Buddha saying.
@@poojaneeanuradha7595 actually it's misspronouce word dharama (means duty or your life purpose )
In that period in old scripters of Hinduism story's this word vastly used so kinda he nearly from Nepal area these guys pronounce not like Indians 100 % so they kinda make word dharama = dhama
I'm a buddhist too and I have a theory regarding the miracles. I think back then people are more inclined towards holy men practicing miracles than a normal person achieving enlightenment. You can look at Jesus and Hindu gods for example. So in order to gain more followers, his disciples had to make up Buddha to be this holy, enlightened being that can perform miracles.

The story of Buddha leaving his family after seeing "suffering" is Fake too. That story is of another Buddha who was born Much Much earlier. Buddha was 29 when he took Sanyasa.
"prince" Siddhartha died and was REBORN as "Gautama" after he became a student of Hindu Rishi AlarKalam who taught him Meditation (dhyana).
Kapilavastu, prince Siddharta's city was discovered in Piprahwa, northern India. Archelogical survey of India (ASI) has found ruins with writings confirming the same.
Buddha's relics was actually found by the ASI in Piprahwa. One of the Jar contained 10 bone fragments and the other 12.The bones found by ASI are on display at the National Museum, New Delhi.
Also Koliya kingdome was NOT a vassal state to Kapilavastu. Both Kingdome's were ruled by Brothers.

Sumerians invented first writings and could be traced to 4000bc.. they invented most of our daily basic necessity today from time to wheels to buildings and the first religion written on cuneiform writings which tells about the great flood, adam and eve, multiple gods, avatars... later at 1400bc jewish religion came about and they started to pray to many Gods similar to sumerians.. at around 1500bc the indus civilisation collapsed and the dravidians went south of india and some stayed north at pakistan.. and came the aryan invasion with vedic teaching using sanskirt also at around 1500bc.. if vedic teaching was at around 1500bc, so vaishnavism which talks folktales of thousands of gods and avatars also shud hv appeared around this time.. so prevedic shaivism shud hv existed prior to 1500bc and likely the mode of religion in indus valley which goes back to 3000bc.. at 600 bc isiaih decided to merge all the gods into one because monotheism from buddhism were becoming popular at that time.. so monotheism appeared at around 600bc and then the start of christianity around 2bc.. jesus and buddha has lots of similarities so maybe both of them cud be the same person jz like how murugan cud be alexander the great.. because after buddha's teaching which made humans realise that god is only 1 (monotheism), after 600 years of realisation that god is only one emerged christianity.. so jesus christ cud be modified buddha's story.. and then at around 600AD.. muhammad modified every versions from sumerian, hebrew to bible and invented a better holy book and started propagating islam also a monotheism religion.. so basically monotheism already existed at indus civilisation and likely was prevedic shaivism.. and later as polytheism getting its peak around the world including india due to aryan invasion, buddha had to intervene and make everyone realise that god is only 1.. that is why the aryan version of hindu religion which is vaishnavism is still followed by us hindu till today.. buddhism somehow realised the actual teaching of monotheism is from prevedic shaivism not the aryan version of vaishnavism.. and then at around 320bc alexander the great came to india and only fought king porus and won but spared his life plus did not cont the war against the mauryan empire.. so he went back to babylon and died a few years after.. so the the demise made king chandragupta of maurya to make him the god of war in india as a deity because they already had thousands of gods at that time so they added him.. and that is how skanda kanda iskandar murugan is worshipped and murugan worshipping was at its peak during sangam era around 300bc and we still worship to murugan till today as the most populsr deity for the Tamils.. i think everyone shud start reading back history and to seek only for the truth, not jz blindly believe onto everything.. only the truth will prevail
Excellent method of discussions.
Helpful and informative. Regards.
I love the guy whose voice is coming out from the background of the video. He's 60, maybe, a real knowledgeable man. Thanks.
I would love to see a similar video on the first guru of Sikhism. Given it is one of the youngest religions, it should have the most historical evidence.
I second this. The first guru was Guru Nanak, who laid the foundations for Sikhi (Sikhism).
Baba
Ooh, I’d love to see this, too!
Yes I would love to see!
Nor Budha nor any leader in Sikhism was a God, only Jesus is the true living God
Very nice and informative video ... While historians may doubt the historicity of Buddha's teachings, the Buddha did not want his disciples to accept the teachings just because he says so .... He encouraged free inquiry ... In the Kalama Sutta, the Buddha exhorts to Kalamas:
"Come, Kalamas. Do not go upon what has been acquired by repeated hearing; nor upon tradition; nor upon rumor; nor upon what is in a scripture; nor upon surmise; nor upon an axiom; nor upon specious reasoning; nor upon a bias towards a notion that has been pondered over; nor upon another's seeming ability; nor upon the consideration, 'The monk is our teacher.' Kalamas, when you yourselves know: 'These things are bad; these things are blamable; these things are censured by the wise; undertaken and observed, these things lead to harm and ill,' abandon them."
"Come, Kalamas. Do not go upon what has been acquired by repeated hearing; nor upon tradition; nor upon rumor; nor upon what is in a scripture; nor upon surmise; nor upon an axiom; nor upon specious reasoning; nor upon a bias towards a notion that has been pondered over; nor upon another's seeming ability; nor upon the consideration, 'The monk is our teacher.' Kalamas, when you yourselves know: 'These things are good; these things are not blamable; these things are praised by the wise; undertaken and observed, these things lead to benefit and happiness,' enter on and abide in them."
The most basic teachings of the Tathagata are The Four Noble Truths and The Noble Eightfold Path and these can be observed through meditation that is Vipassana. Vipassana is the core of Buddha's teachings.
You understand the core of Buddhism.
thank ads very much, this is such a very useful information for Buddhism scholars. Great appreciation from The Vietnamese.
Excellent video.great explanation. word by word listenable presentation.thank you.
I love it when you dissect the historicity of ancient people/stories. Its so interesting!
Some other suggested topics: Abraham, the Trojan War, King Arthur, Romulus and Remus, the Mahabharata, the Amazons, etc.
What about Ramayana?
@@agniswar3 mythology... he already did a video about Hindu mythology.....
@One word to describe: COSMOS You came in a wrong channel... Here we don't talk about which religion is true, it's a history chart channel....
We know the written time of Quran and it's history that what's going on that time.... We know the existence of Prophet Muhammad, his birth date etc.... During Prophet's time, those people who accept Prophet Muhammad's teaching was called muslim and those who don't believe like you said they called non-muslim....
Now talk about Hindu mythology, there's no prove where's it came or when it was written that's why it's called mythology......... This is not my words... Scholars called it Greek mythology, Roman Mythology, Hindu mythology because they don't find how all this oral story came and who write it and their existence...
@One word to describe: COSMOS You missed the point again.... is Hindusim began in 5th century BC??? Valmiki is not a Prophet nor a religion founder, he just the first one to written down all the oral story of Hindu mythology, before that people only tell those story orally from mouth to mouth.... People don't from know where all this story came from same goes to Greek mythology... 'Homer' is the first one who wrote most of story of greek mythology in his books Iliad, Odyssey and others even before valmiki... But it doesn't mean those story people didn't use before Homer written down...
Mythology simply means those story which come to us from orally mouth to mouth and we don't know where's it came from nor any acrological evidence.... it's a mixed of legend and myth without historical existence...
@@milliyetci5672 you have got all the points wrong. Hinduism is not a religion, It's a way of life. The concept of religion came much after Hinduism. People from the Indus valley civilization(One of the oldest) followed Hinduism. Hinduism isn't about one god or one way, there are four different ways to attain Moksha(Liberation). Loving God and all the creatures is just one among many. Coming to the point if Hindiusm is mythology? It's not. Quran is around 1400 years old. Whereas, Vedas( Sacred Hindu text) is much much older. Some estimates are 20,000 years older. The dating on current ones are 5,000 years old before that everything was taught orally.
Very Interesting Facts in a simple unbiased presentation that is educative and opens the mind to further investigation and learning. Good Job & Hope for more such Presentations.
Awesome video and information 👌
Good work!
Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for producing this!
I just remembered, I've been following you for 2 years now!
wow..Very useful description... Thank you.
Very clear and short. Thanks you
Very informative and above all, is a fair presentation and conclusion. Thank you
Beautifully done!
I love you channel because I really interested about Lord Buddha.
Your teaching is very interesting you are doing a great job
Thanks for having proper captions. It's appreciated.
Thanks a lot.. Your videos makes us inspire into history true facts.. Keep doing 👍🏽
It's you who does the charts and video editing? Your content is very good in all ways, congratulations
I have learned the history of the Buddha including the footsteps of the Buddha, Old Path White Cloud and also continue learning his teaching like Tripitaka Sutra, Abbhidhama . He is reall highly enlightened person . The symbol of peace. Pay respects to the Buddha
Great Video, you have researched well. The only error I could find was that Suttas aren't necessarily a short wise saying, a lot of Buddhist Sutta's from the Pali Canon are in-depth lectures/ teachings the Buddha gave that are multiple pages long.
A very informative presentation.
During the time of The Buddha, there was another Saint called Mahaveera, who started a movement similar to Buddhism- Jainism.
Jainism also talks about the presence of The Buddha. And both their stories are very similar.
Mahaveera lived 200 years before Siddhartha.
@@user-ml1mr1ls2y No. He was contemporary to the Buddha. I think 35 year of gap between them.
No. he was a contemporary. But Jainism preceded Buddhism. Mahavir was the 14th Tirthankara ( teacher) of the Jains.

Thank you so much for your English explanation. It is very easy to understand everybody.
His date for the Buddha is completely wrong. Buddha attained nibbana in 543 BC, not 400 or 480 BC as he is telling.
Living in Sri Lanka for so long has helped you well with pronounciation ,example Nanda & Nandaa....nice 👍😎
Very well presented keep up the good work
love the teaching method and the study information
There is a mistake 11:09
Vishnu didn't incarnated only 10 times.
He had nearly 20+ incarnations but these 10 were the most important ones
You are wrong too.
Bhagvat Puran mentions 24 Avatar of Vishnu, not 20. But over time there has been THOUSANDS of Vishnu Avatar on earth. The 9+1 mentioned are the most important for humans. Because many of these avatar are from another age, before the age of man.
Similarly Buddha mentions 27 Buddha's before him. Taṇhaṅkara Buddha, Medhaṅkara Buddha, Saraṇkara Buddha, Dīpankara Buddha, Koṇdañña Buddha, Maṅgala Buddha, Sumana Buddha, Revata Buddha, Sobhita Buddha, Anomadassi Buddha, Paduma Buddha, Nārada Buddha, Padumuttara Buddha, Sumedha Buddha, Sujāta Buddha, Piyadassi Buddha, Atthadassi Buddha, Dhammadassī Buddha, Siddhattha Buddha, Tissa Buddha, Phussa Buddha, Vipassī Buddha, Sikhī Buddha, Vessabhū Buddha, Kakusandha Buddha, Koṇāgamana Buddha and Kashyapa Buddha.
@@zaxcollix123 puranas are bakwas
@@preetamyadav7952 do you speak this way when you do not agree with anything!! You need to chill and be calm. At least I can I can infer you are not a Buddhist!
Buddha, the great intellect, who has seen his previous life which are narrated in Jataka never mentioned he was a linage of hindu demigod vishnu's avatara. Can somebody correct me on this.
@@surenderameelpur6475 We all are avatar of god when we are self realised or enlightened. Bcoz oneness with god is the other name of enlightment.
So enlightened soul who did extarordinary good for society are called avatar like ram , krishna , bhudha , mahavir etc.
This channel kicks ass!

Great video. I would be very interested to watch a similar video on Zarathustra, Socrates, Homer, Laozi and Confucius.
Thanks for created this vedio. I am from Sri lanka so happy to speak about our country.
I absolutely love this video!! ( Not just because I'm Buddhist ) but because you got straight to the point and you made it very easy to understand. Thank you for making this!
Where are you from?
Excellent description
It's very interesting to see that most prominent religions were developed in the similar timeline.
Ayubowan 🙏
You mentioned that u were in sri lanka, that's amazing..
Love and blessings from sri lanka on this full moon vesak poya day to u and all the great souls..
Happy vesak... 💙💛☸️❤️🧡
Bro do one about the Christian schisms:ancient to modern. Cover all the major churches too if you can.
Yeh, Christian denominations through history would be great. In fact every major religion's denominations would be a great series.
Thank you for sharing
If my history classes were more like this I sure would have been a historian
Your theme song is timeless .
Great video!!! I am a sri lankan buddhist and also was history and archaeology student. This is exactly what I have learned about Buddha's existence as a historical person. The way you presented it logically proving the argument is excellent! I wa surprised at first at your knowledge of buddhist literature but then saw that you were in Sri Lanka for many years! Great great work!
bro's become my favorite wide explaining history channel within a day
I'm from Turkey and I like people such as Buddha & Confucius because they never attributed supernatural justification of a god to themselves, nor did they say you need to respect them more than your own parents.
Unlike the nonsense I was told to believe in .....
is it true that most Turks are non-religous nowdays ?
i see tons of comments by ppl from Turkey in athiest vids. :)
@@rusirusathkalana7355 The ones born in the 90s and later are more liberal. The ones living in Europe come from more conservative areas and might be more religious.
@@selcukdilek4656 it's really weird to get that ppl from Europe are more conservative. Well I appreciate liberal thoughts n ideas in every religion.
Buddha is worshipped unlike Confucius. It’s a religion.
That means you are intelligent.
Wait you were Sri Lankan teacher you gotta tell us some stories
I'm from sri lanka
@@mallikajayasinghe2961 what do think about muslim and Islam ?
@@user-ws4qb8ks8p same like all Indian people .
Completely hate for this islamic cult .
Islam here is seen as some kind of demonic ideology .
@@user-ws4qb8ks8p hmm some people distroing islam i think like ISIS
@@user-ws4qb8ks8p most of Muslim people are very nice. They collaborate with us to celebrate our festivals also, Them. Problem is terrorist ruining bond between Ours and muslims. There is no hate. Because we are buddhists 🙏
I love these. You should do one for Zoroaster, too, if you can. I know there's not a lot to go on with him.
Also: Mani, the Báb, and Baháʼu'lláh.
And Mazdak too.
Aren't there photos of baha'u'llah?
@@dudeonthasopha Yeah, probably. I was thinking more of the family tree aspect for him.
@@dudeonthasopha yeah, because Baha'ullah is a recent religious founder, like Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, the founder of Ahmadiyya, and like the founder of Mormonism.
@@elmajraz6019 but isn't mormonism or the LDS church is another denomination of Christianity?
very important video for Buddhism .thank u so much.
Cool video!
Could be Buddhism teaches lots of awareness, peacefulness, passiveness, understanding, sympathy, empathy, compassion, revelation, revealing, patience, reflection, humanity, humanitarianism, emotion, prudence, and helpfulness
Umm, not really. If I am not mistaken, Revelation is not found in Buddha's Teachings.
@Your God is my Dog That's Right !
@Spiritual Warrior lol 😂
@@DipayanPyne94 reveal-ation. Not REVELATIONS, bibley
@@rossclark9155 Umm, no. The Original comment has the word 'Revelation' in it. So does mine.
Siddharta Gautama, assuming there is no suffering in the world and deciding to go for a stroll: "Yo what the fuck?"
Siddharta, after eating a solid meal for the first time after going on a starvation diet for years: "Yooooooooooo!"
@@jackkendall6420 But he eventually became no sufferin after opposing the evil.
Agree, it's b.s. beginning, but it's a myth, not for my taste
@@oreradovanovi5204 well thats a bit disrepectful. But i agree. He didnt actually eat nothing for years. He survived on gruel.
Disrespectful, hmmm? Sure, I've been sitting all my life, if put together I spent 2 years + on the cushion... So I follow the practice, but the mythology have no respect for.
thank you for this effort. its very helpful for modern minds. one main factor in the major names of prophetic ones is as was already known by learned people before our generations was that they were put into being for the sole purpose of aiding the poor in many ways. no foul or funny business about it. all from prior writings were they derived.
All lives are full of emptiness; I am experiencing it. After I sold everything, I have everything in my heart which full of happiness and freedom. Thank you.
I wish my history classes were this interesting
For anyone intrigued with this pivotal time & place on history, I highly recommend the novel "Creation" by Gore Vidal; which is the "autobiography" of a Persian ambassador and scholar who travels to India, China, Greece and the fertile crescent. He describes rhe religion, societies and creation myths of everyone he meets, as well as his military and romantic adventures. Great read, and includes excellent historical context for this amazing time in history. He is supposedly the grandson of Zoroaster and meets the Buddha, Confucius, Herodotus, Socrates, Xerxes, Darius, etc; as well as Other kings, queens, philosophers, madmen, and other actual and fictional people. of that time.
You have explained very well .
Great job sir thanks
These charts ARE THE BEST!!!
Buddha fallow dharma like as every hindu but a special sect of dharma
If only my teachers narrated their presentations like this guy does.
Thanks for your presentation , very scientific way .
Nice Explanation about Lord Buddha's Family tree. I love , believe Lord Buddha and his teachings.
Thanks for another great video, UC. I would be interested if you could do a video on the whole Shakespeare authorship question without pushing the academic dogma too hard. Def important to recognize what’s generally accepted but it’s anything but a closed case, IMO. Don’t know if you’re familiar with Alan Green, but he has done some very interesting work on the subject (his youtube is Bardcode)
Great video as usual. Can you talk about the Dalai Lama? Who was the first one and how are they chosen? Thanks ✌
Not the OP, but: the first person to be acknowledged as "Dalai Lama" was Sonam Gyatso, who was given the title by Altan Khan in 1573. Sonam Gyatso was retroactively considered to be the rebirth of Gedun Gyatso, who was the rebirth of Gedun Drubpa.
@@ConstructmanPsion lady luna did Not say thanks. Sooooo thanks
if you go by the original buddha philosophy not by later day fake buddhism in different names created by buddha"s followers..dalai lama is not a buddhist at all...you cant be a monk and king like the LAMA and POPE
@@redjohn3662 Are you Buddhist ?

Thanks from Srilanka . Very informative. 👍🙏
Thanks for knowledge of Buddhism in English.
You're an excellent teacher with an obvious passion and flair for accurate transmission. Congratulations and thank you!
Also make a video on Solar and Lunar dynasty of India
The Lord Buddha's teachings are directly focused towards psychological improvement of the people. They are educating people on how to change thinking patterns through developing cognition, wisdom etc.and to maintain a calm and quiet life style which paves the way for living peace ☮️ & harmony with others (humans and animals) in the society.
In order to the above, it is practised to behave on perception which created by the observations collected through five senses ( eye, ear, nose, tongue and body) because of five senses are physical and could mislead.
Example: Mirage
Thanks for the valuable video.
From Sri Lanka.
good work
