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.
-
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
-
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.

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.
-
Correction: Mahayana Buddhism is founded on the Sanskrit canon (not Chinese)
-
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)

I visited both Bodh Gaya and Lumbini. They give enormous peace when in presence of Tathagath and his mother Maya devi temple. Pranams
-
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
-
Interesting & informative video. There is common understanding on the Buddha we have. I being a student of Buddhist and Pali University in Sri Lanka, there are many points i must concur in your sharing. Best from Singapore 🇸🇬

Love how this channel is flourishing and evolving. Keep up the great work!
-
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.

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'.
-
It is amazing to see a teaching from 2.600 years ago still exist till now.
-

Whoa. Thanks for this! Your channel is a gem, my go-to learning resource for my historical-religio interests.
-
Kalama Sutta - Do not simply believe what you hear or see including my teachings, only by experiencing and validating it yourself you will see the truth. ~ Buddha The only teacher that asked you not to blindly believe
-
Thank you for this! I have always been a history buff, and have been a practicing Buddhist for years. It's always a joy to get to learn something new, even if it doesn't directly involve my practice. Well Done! or as we say in the Sangha... SvaHa!
-
Very detail yet careful narration in short duration. Thank you!
