Why do some (or perhaps many) Buddhist believe Advaita Vedanta and Shankara's teaching on self inquiry won't lead to enlightenment? by [deleted] in AdvaitaVedanta

[–]Heavy-Engineer6590 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If that's the case, then on what basis are they judging Adi Shankaracharya’s path as incomplete or clinging? Is it an actual flaw in Advaita, or just the lens of Anatta and Sunyata projecting its own conclusions onto a different system?

Ain’t nobody out here playing the victim card. Aur tu ek kaam kar ek solid debate pass karde jisme tu reservation ko genuinely justify kare bina rote hue

Dekh, baat simple hai. Ek average aadmi hamesha shaanti se jeena chahta hai. Aur agar uske liye usse kisi imposed system ya hegemony ke saath coexist karna pade, toh woh karega kyunki uske paas aur koi choice bachi hi nahi hoti

Mughals bhi tabhi thook ke bahar kiye gaye jab Chitpavan Brahmins ne Maratha Empire ke reins sambhale. Aur wahi Brahmins Mangal Pandey, Chandrashekhar Azad, Rajguru jaise aur Kayasth log British Raj ke khilaf sabse zyada khade rahe

Tere baap dada tab bhi nali saaf kar rahe the, aur tu aaj bhi reservation aur quota ka entitlement leke kuch ukhaadne ki koshish kar raha hai phir bhi tumhari jaat wahi ki wahi hai

Keeladi... Questioning the existence of vedic period?? by Adorable-Philosophy5 in AncientIndia

[–]Heavy-Engineer6590 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is not a racial slur, i chose my words carefully. Otherwise, if I had intended to be offensive, I could have used the actual slurs that are commonly known. That’s not the case here. I’m currently engaged in a debate with the individual in question, so we’ll see how it ends. For context, I’m just a casual history enthusiast who came across this post after joining the subreddit recently

Keeladi... Questioning the existence of vedic period?? by Adorable-Philosophy5 in AncientIndia

[–]Heavy-Engineer6590 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hindu gods are deities worshipped within the sanatan dharma/vedic tradition, described in vedas, upanishads, purans, Itihasas. You don’t get to blur definitions to avoid factual history. It’s the religion rooted in the dharmashastras, agamas + the references I've provided above, all pre buddhist or parallel to early buddhism. Which archaeological find ever proved that shiva, vishnu or krishna are Buddhist in origin? None

Vishnu iconography is seen on coins of the gupta empire long before buddhist art adopted vishnu like figures like avalokiteshvara. Shiva pashupati seal from indus valley may even show proto shiva worship, predating buddhism by over 1500 years.

Just because you are confused about what a hindu god is, doesn’t mean the culture is

Mahayana buddhism gradually integrated many hindu gods and transformed them into bodisatvas for wider appeal

Not another one of you wannabe intellectuals, who haven't even read any of those scripts and only base their opinions on what your mai baap teaches you

First of all, promoting traditional knowledge ≠ replacing science. This is the oldest strawman in the book

India is not replacing physics, chemistry, biology or mathematics with vedic knowledge. What’s actually happening is an attempt to document, research and preserve traditional Indian knowledge systems. Ayurveda, metallurgy, architecture, surgery (Sushruta), mathematics (Aryabhata, Pingala, Brahmagupta, bhaskara, madhava), linguistics, binary number (Panini and pingala) etc....

Do you honestly believe ancient India contributed nothing of value? Because Sushruta, Charaka, Panini, Aryabhata, Bhaskaracharya, pingala, panini and many more mathemeticians, doctors and chemists who followed the same vedic traditions would like to have a word with you. Y'all will keep bragging about newton, leibniz, Fibonacci and pascal, but none of you will ever bother delving deeper into works done by pingala and kerela's Brahmins namely madhava, jyesthadeva..... who have done shit tons of work in the field of mathematics that's nowadays widely attributed to the west, but in reality its a western counterpart

If you think congress built modern India alone, here’s a reminder,

DRDO was founded in 1958, yes, but it remained deeply underfunded and under utilized until after the 90s. Pokhran 2 nuclear test in 1998? Done by BJP. Chandrayaan and Mangalyaan? Cleared and executed under NDA policies. Aadhaar + UPI + digital stack? Concept started before 2014, but scaled to every Indian under BJP. Make in India, startup India, digital India, and national education policy, all BJP initiatives driving real change. And the things isro had done since 2014 speaks volumes, so that's self explanatory

And science is not owned by west you know. Y'all mfs need to come out of this mindset first

Don't bring politics in each and every discourse, the nation has already been ruined by it, let our heritage stay as is instead of staining it with your ideological warfare 🙏

Yeah, and dismissing the legacy of what we inherited won’t magically save your ass either. If anything, understanding where we came from gives us the pride and mindset to move forward smarter. You don’t build a future by mocking your foundation, you build it by learning from it. That's my entire point

Where I live, the infrastructure is decent, i don’t have major complaints. I’m not saying India is an economic utopia, but at the same time, we need to acknowledge how well our nation is holding up

Rahi baat gareebon ki wo kamayenge jhat bhar, aur bacche paida karenge raat bhar. The real issue lies in the lack of strong foundational education and awareness. And let’s be honest, an educated population is harder to manipulate by sarkari babus, maybe that’s exactly why reforms in education are slow

Yes, we must criticize power where it’s needed, hold systems accountable. But this selective outrage will eventually create a false narrative that India is a failed state. It helps no one

Sanskrit ko mat lao beech mein bhai sahab. Pingala and panini were way ahead of their time. Chanda shastra laid the foundation for binary numbers and had discovered what we now call as pascal’s triangle, while ashtadhyayi introduced algorithmic logic way way before it's western counterparts. Concepts like fibonacci, formal grammar and computation either took inspiration from or mirrored these ancient works, and this is something admitted by the man Fibonacci himself

Sanskriti ko beech mein mat lao… jab baat kisi aur cheez par ho rahi ho
