Sanskrit fever grips Germany: 14 universities teaching India's ancient language struggle to meet dem

[Srinivas]

To make their divide and conquer stronger; the British even pitted my community against you people......something unheard of in our more than 2000 years together living harmoniously.

There is no issues between Buddhism and Hinduism, Buddha is inducted as 10th Avatar of Vishnu.

Both the faiths believe in Dharma, Karma, Mokaha or Nirvana and Re incarnations.

Buddhism and Vedas basic philosophy go side by side and is very similar

I know this, you know this. But a lot of ignorant people don't know this.

Not to mention the idiotic Ambedkarites who are simply brainwashed to hate anyone than their lord Ambedkar

Many Ambedkarites are practicing Buddhists.

Maybe it's you that has no idea of Buddhism.

 

[Tshering22]

Buddhism rejects the Vedas.

It also says that nothing is written in stone. Perhaps you don't remember the teachings of Mahendra and Sanghamitra; evolution of mind should be like a river's path; clear flexible and adaptable.

Many Ambedkarites are practicing Buddhists

Sure, the only thing they know is to abuse Hindus and rant nonsense.

Not a single sutra or even the meanings of all the teachings that have come not just with Gautama Buddha but also with the many Enlightened Ones before him. Have met many who come for pilgrimage, fold their hands in front of Siddhartha Gautama statue and then sit in groups and abuse Hindus.

 

[manlion]

while Germans are going back to their Aryan (Sanskrit =European) roots, American kids are picking up Tamil in schools, colleges and universities

 

[utraash]

Sanskrit is not coming back to life ,German secularism under threat

If same replicated in India could be labelled Bhagvakaran ......

Are you retarded? Buddhism is a rejection of brahmanism (Vedic religion). They don't go side by side. Stop assimilating someone else's belief hindoo.

Buddhism rejects the Vedas.

Never thought I'd agree with a lankan.

Go through Manusmriti and shove into yours !

Do not speak out of ignorance. No where in Manusmriti does it state that any caste should not be educated. In fact the greatest stress is laid on education of everyone.

The ones you have mentioned are all from forward castes they constitute only 10 to 15 % of the society, they have the access to the knowledge and scriptures!

The rest are supposed to do other works like carpenters, farmers, etc...etc...

When the invaders came, 50 to 60 % people thought what is difference if king is replaced, no change in their lives.

One of the main reason why no considerable resistance is offered.

This is nonsense. There was almost 80-90% literacy among masses even when the British came to India.

LOL. What forward caste ?

Kings and warriors were Kshatriyas. Merchants were Vaishyas. How can Brahmins, kshatriyas and traders constitute 10 to 15% of any society ?

The entire economy will collapse. LOL.

Majority of rulers were not Kshatriyas either. More than one third of the country was ruled by Shudra kings.

 

[XenoEnsi-14]

Wow! Haha looks like sanskrit is coming back to life. No matter how hard the barbaric invaders of India tried to pull us down, at the end of the day our great culture rises again!

and it takes the barbaric invaders to bring it back, wonder what that makes Indians.

Buddism rejected Brahmanism,caste system and their domination. Not Vedas or its core principles.

[Dragon Ball]

LOL. More Rubbish.

How can Brahmins ALONE deny anyone anything if it was not supported by the entire Hindu community that involved ALL casts ?

Brahmins were not even 5% of the total population and they did not even bear arms.

Outcastes were not even allowed to draw water from ANY caste well, so forget about temples. Once they became Dalits even there own caste, (whatever it was) refused them.

Don't give me that "secular" rubbish about "demon brahmins" and poor innocent rest of them who watched the world burn.

No one said anything about making people of other religion as outcastes. Its the outcaste's who converted. Not the caste hindus.

A lot of caste Hindus converted too.

Buddism rejected Brahmanism,caste system and their domination. Not Vedas or its core principles.

If you are destined to remain an ignoramus, there is nothing that can be done.

For others though,

Education in Pre-British India

The information about indigenous education, which is available today, whether published, or still in manuscript form in the government records, largely belongs to the 1820's and 1830's period. It is significant to emphasize that indigenous education was carried out through pathshalas, madrassahs and gurukulas. These three institutions were the source of traditional knowledge systems in India and played a very significant role in the Indian education. These institutions were in fact the watering holes of the culture of traditional communities. Therefore the term school is a weak translation of the roles these institutions really played in Indian society.

The most well-known and decisive point, which emerged from the educational surveys, lies in an examination made by William Adam. He, in his observations found that there existed about 1,00,000 village schools in Bengal and Bihar around the 1830s. Men like Thomas Munro, had observed that 'every village had a school'. Observations made by Dr. G.W.Leitner in 1882 show that the spread of education in the Punjab around 1850 was of a similar extent. At about the same time, England had very few schools for the children of ordinary people till about 1800, and many of the older grammar school were in poor shape. According to A.E. Dobbs, the University of Oxford might be described as the chief Charity School of the poor as well as the chief Grammar School in England. It was also one of the greatest places of the education for students of theology, law and medicine.

The government of Madras presidency completed a survey of Indian educational institutions in 1823-24. After that it came to be known that despite the poverty and disturbance, there were about 13,000 schools and 740 colleges under the presidency. According to this survey the original number of students in school and colleges were 1,88,650 out of which 42,502 were Brahmans and 85,400 were from the castes known as Shudras. The remaining were Vaishya, Mohammedan and from other Hindu castes. The numbers of girls were only 4540, but according to the report this lesser number of girls as alleged was mainly due to the prevalence of home education of girls. But the number of Mohammedan girl students in Malabar district was very large. The number of girl students there was 1,122 and for boy students 3196. How these institutions of education were destroyed is known to some extent by what Gandhiji said.

Buddhism never rejected caste ........ what kind of nonsense is this ? He reinforced the karma based caste system that was getting eroded in India.

Not all Hinduism is vedic based. Only the Astika path is rooted in the vedas. Nastika philosophy do not give primacy to the vedas and are very much part of Hinduism.

Majority of rulers were not Kshatriyas either. More than one third of the country was ruled by Shudra kings.

All rulers were Kshatriyas. Classic e.g. of this is Shivaji who was not born in a Kshatriya caste but was coronated as a kshatriya.

An ignorant bigoted fool like you should not comment on Hinduism.

You should stick to your primitive religion where god told you to grow all your body hair and wear an underwear. That is the depth of your philosophy.

Shivaji was a shudra, but became a Kashatriya. Caste system was very fluid unlike what the secular morons here assert.
