If one were to retrace the footsteps of Buddhism in China, they would find themselves along the Silk Road, and perhaps in one of the key places of worship - the Yungang Grottoes. But this UNESCO world heritage site is not just significant as a religious site, it's known for its art - sculptures and paintings with influences from Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome and India, an example of how East meets West.

Is there any doubt that due to the voluntary nature of awareness, the appropriateness of a thing which is not awareness exists in terms of How It Compares TO *INVENTIONS*?
These grottoes look so beautiful and nicely carved 🇨🇳
I wonder how our ancestors carve them in such heights lol
Grottoes!....thank you for teaching me new word. Xie Xie.

If u look some hindu sculptures all over South East Asia .You will go mad !!!
If India and China have done some work to stop islamaization we would have saved the Buddhas of baamyaans 👎👎 .

Siddharth as a human being was born in current day Nepal (Lumbini) who was later enlightened as the Buddha in Gaya(Bodhgaya, current day India) from where the Buddhism spread.
Very well written. I have always said that Buddhism originated from Nepal not India.

So Buddishm was orginated in Nepal, not India?
I am Hindu from India but I love Buddhism a lot and believe in it too .
Where there are many sick people, there will be more Doctors created.That was how Buddha born at that area...regardless of which country.

Absolutely beautiful Buddha Grottoes in Yungang..🌻😍🌹..
High Culture and Spirituality... beautiful and harmonious....
Wow, Yungang cave was built by the Northern Wei dynasty. Northern Wei is founded by nomadic Xianbei people over almost 1700 years ago. They were the northern people who originated in Mongolia steppes, Siberia and Manchuria. Although they weren’t exactly Han Chinese at their ancient times, they were indeed one branch of the Chinese ancestors. It’s very moving to see how diverse and inclusive Chinese have been. I am happy that Xianbei are honored as the ancestors as the rest of the many many tribes and ethnic groups throughout China’s long long history that created a collective Chinese civilization, and to make China what it is, and the Chinese who they are.
Good work. Buddha was a truly good human being who achieved true success in life. He sacrificed all to gain truth of life- the true peace

India and China are friends. We should rise above petty politics. Guard against those selfish and parochial politicians that want to destroy the good faith between the Chinese and Indians.
It has been proven that in the past the two greatest Civilisations have so many cultural exchanges, why can't our present generation surface above the petty politics and work towards a brighter future together? I yearn for a day where India and China can surpass the past, innovate together, and co-create an Asian Development Path rather than an Anglo model that has its inherent flaws.
@Noobu, in 1950's and 1960's Remembering my school Days that our Teacher taugh us World History. When we Came About in Part or Chapter of China and India, These Two Countries Relation Together was Closer in the Ancient Era of Civilization Uncluding the Slavas modern Day Russia. Yes, Both of these Mentioned Countries above have Old Or Ancient Histories Together.

Amazing caves, spiritual and artistic embodying a world view of the era. There is no comparison elsewhere. Buddhism died in India and Central Asia but thrived in South East and East Asia.
Actually,Bhuddhism never died in India.Its still there,but just not dominant.Majority of the Population ate Hindus.But still,there are millions of Bhuddhists present in different regions of India.Bhuddhism was at its peak during the Reign of Ashoka the Great during which it spread to SriLanka.And now it is the dominant religion in SriLanka.
@@alfredbernard9227 yes now 10 - 15 million Buddhist in India. 10, 000- 20,000 Buddhist in Pakistan.
@Prometheus Lol Gautam Buddha not himself Hindu. He is not prophet , Avatar and god.
Lol Today, smal Buddhist population in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan. Not died Buddhism in Central Asia. Another thing is that a large number of Buddhists did not even exist in Central Asia in the past. Tengrism was the predominant religion in Central Asia. Later they converted to Islam. But now the number of atheists in Central Asia is increasing and so are the number of followers of Tengrism.
@Prometheus he was a Hindu King.
And left it in search of absolute truth.

Buddha main destination in India is great.., glorious history of timeless Indian culture ❤️
Europe accepted "Aesop Fables" in the 16th. century and it's had a pretty good run too.
May the Buddha live forever.
Does someone has a list of all the historical sites in China? ❓
Way too many haha
Where is this place?
Beautiful place!!!!!
Today, half of all the Buddhists in the world are Chinese and they live in China. So I thought that Buddha was Chinese, but he wasn't, he was actualy from either Nepal or India.
There are many words of wisdom that Buddha has uttered, but my favorite is this:.
TRUE WEALTH IS ACHIEVED BY ACQUIRING PEACE, HEALTH & A SHARED PROSPERITY.
That pretty much summarizes how China as a nation operates.
He reincarnated as John the baptist.
china should have never converted.
Lol, because some kings didn't want Buddhism here in India( India and Nepal could be together roughly called the Indian subcontinent )....
So, they kind of forced people to convert back to HInduism or threatened them to kill or something....
Their was brutual force used in some kingdoms in India, others held debates whether Hinduism or Buddhism is better and the debatee would bet that if he wins the whole community should convert back to Hinduism.. Its complicated.... And hence slowly Buddism was erased somewhat in India....

Buddha was against caste system and sanatana dharma. Buddha was the first Atheist the world knows.
Buddha spoke about atheistic philosophy charvaka is older than buddha first atheist was Brihaspati the founder of charvaka philosophy

Yoga and meditation are also getting popular from india in china.
Arguments about where Buddha came from would make him laugh I am sure. As Buddha says whether there's a god or not is irrelevant it is within ourselves that is important he would say the same about the country he came from, what difference does it make, a country is just a name given to a place on earth, if we stopped fighting over names of places maby life would get better for all of us 🤘🙏🤗
It will be very educational to all in China as well as for International viewers if CGTN could also research n do a documentary on how Islam, came into China with Hui minority came to believe in islam n Christianity first came into China, during Italian Missionary Fr Matteo Ricci visit n stay. What abt Marco Polo visit n his return home to Venice n brought noodles(Pasta n rice) back to ITALY. Wouldnt that be a fascinating history of China, in contact with the world during those ancient silk route era.
We already got to know abt the petite British young evangelical Christian, Gladys May Alyward, who came to China on a mission in 1902 n her life in China. She managed to stay n looked after orphans, n had a hard life but gradually was accepted for her kind deeds. She was such an inspiration!.
Why not other religion too. To show the world that China was visited by these foreigners long before n how the different religion was brought into China n the many beautiful ppl n their belief living peacefully with each other, n the beautiful ancient Mosques, churches n Temples all dotting in and around China. Wouldnt that be a fascinating history for all of us, as well as International viewers, especially those younger generation will learn abt China's beautifully diverse n rich culture n history.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
As a buddist country, we Sri lankns so much love China..
To be more specific, Great Buddha born in where now we call Nepal. He originally was a prince and his kingdom was there..
Not in today India..
Listen u beggars budha was enlightened in bihar india is the birthplace of civilization and all dharmic religions so stay away lick chinese boots
all God were born in india even Jesus learned from himalaya sadhu 😅
Buddha was not born in Nepal, he was born in India. Siddharth Gautam was born in the clan of Shakyas in Nepal, however he was not a Buddha until he visited Bodhgaya in India and achieved enlightenment. You can say that Siddharth was born in Nepal, however Buddha was born out of him in India.
😂 in that' time Lumbini was part of mauryan empire . And for your information budhha found budhhism in gaya , give his first teaching in sarnath , died in kushinagar , and spend most live in india and the country which is not even exist untill 1768 where budhha born 😂😂 is a joke ..
Incomplete info
At that time Lumbini(in today Nepal) was a part of a hindu Dynasty there was no Nepal or india just a hindu South asia.today's Bihar is very close to Nepal he got in today's india and attained enlightenment at bodh gaya at 35 from then he was actually took as Buddha and did various sermons and stuff in India then died and various Indian rulers spread it to places like china,Sri Lanka,Japan etc
Buddham Sharanan Gacchami
As a descendent of Gautama Buddha this means a lot to me.🙏
Only Buddhists devoted to practice of Buddhism are called descendants of Buddha.
No hindu is a descendant of Buddha.
That's a ying-yang reputation of Babylon the first temple of global pictorial facial expressions
I doubt Buddha would have liked all that pomp around his person.
Taoism makes much more sense to me because there is no point in reincarnation.
the values and teachings are more important than where Buddha was born! However, the fact should be told that Buddha was born in Lumbini which is a part of Nepal! India also named their part of land near to original Lumbini as their ‘Lumbini’ which created confusion among tourists and people are visiting the fake shrines of India! It is truth the Buddhism was flourished in India and contributed much in spreading but later Hindus dominated the country by being too cruel sometimes! Again, the teachings and values of all religion is the same: to live in brotherhood, respect nature snd stay in peace! The architecture of famous Buddhist places should be preserved!
I grow up believing that china is closed to other countries, how silly 😋
It’s not only very much in exchange with the world, it has received many many different people and ideas throughout its long history. It was the center or the foundation of the global trade for millenniums. For example, Chang’an, the capital of China Tang Dynasty was one of the biggest cities of its time and a great metropolis of the ancient world, with 20% of its populations were foreigners and hosted many different religions, from Zoroastrianism, esoteric Buddhism, to Nestorian. If you thought China was closed, maybe it’s time for learning some Chinese history if you are interested, it’s fascinating.
Destroying an image of a buddha or buddhism is destroying ones opportunity to leaving samsara and transcendence. Never meeting with wise benevolent advisors. Becoming an ichantika. Statues are to remind us of our true potential and capabilities beyond the known world that we must develop to regain mastery over oneself. Returning to purity, becoming an Awakend One, a Buddha.
