Ajahn Punnadhammo. Fascinating. I've been a student of history of the Eurasian area but in the more recent centuries during the time of The Great Game. So a lot of my time has been spent in studying history as related to Geo-politics. Which has quite literally worn me out given the current social upheaval and the beating of the cyclical drums of war once again. I've turned my back on the mundane world and now dedicate my time to Dhamma study and meditation as laity. But the history of this region (Central and Southeast Asia) during the Buddha's time is very interesting. It helps to put his life and his teaching into historic and cultural perspective. I enjoyed the talk very much and will be coming back for more. สาธุๆ
Dear bhante, thank you so much for this series; I've been enjoying it immensely. Please consider - if time and energy permit - adding more historical content of similar nature to your channel (at least occasionally). Thank you again, sadhu, sadhu, sadhu!
Mahavira and Makkhali Gosala were contemporaries of Gautama Buddha as both were active during fifth century BC and were present in the greater Magadh area. They were central figures of Jainism and Ajivikas. I was expecting some reference of them.
A very good book, based on the early teachings, is The Historical Buddha, the Times, Life and Teachings of the Founder of Buddhism, written by H.W. Schumann.
The Brahmans having highly detailed and specific rituals for different occasions brings to mind the Navajo religion, which also has highly detailed rituals for specific occasions with sand paintings and deities evoked, etc.
Vendrable Punnadhammo.....can you please do a video on what Buddha would preach if he comes to the world today... todays world is full of wars...same as ancient India... Gratification of senses...same as then Racism? Less today i guess.. compared to ancient india and other countries Family life......same i guess.. Rights of women.....definetely better today Democracy...definetely better today..
Sorry to say, You have a very poor knowledge in ancient Indian history. If your comment is correct, the Buddha was born after Ashoka!!!!!!!! How can that be possible?????
Thank you sir, I wish you go through the latest historical, archaeological and linguistic history of ancient India by some scholars and Buddhist enthusiastic found that written history of ancient Indian is absolutely false . (Aryan cannot be placed before buddhas time). The placement of Aryans at 1500 bc has no archaeological evidence till date, this is mearly done of paper by historians. Please apologize me, for this submission. With love..
Buddha is a aryan pali is a indo aryan language . Buddhists also worship sakra ,mahabrahma they both are hindu gods . Dravidians are not buddhists . Dravidians are shavites (they are worshipers of shiva )
Not true both aryan and dravidian are linguistic terms not racial. All people of India fall under same race category and Buddha is probably no different he never spoke pali as pali is not vernacular language. Coming to Buddhist Philosophy people says it's non aryan because it's not vedic more indic in thought and way coming all the way from Indus valley traditions and philosophies which are not aryan. Even Hindu samkya and vedanta are for namesake vedic but those philosophies are rooted in native Indus valley religion and beliefs. Coming to dravdian speakers they played dominant role in all religions, whether it's Mahayana Buddhism which started out of andhra or some of main sects of Jainism were all developed out of South also advaita philosophy, dvaita, Vaishnavism, shaivism, bhakti cult were are all also started out of South.
Hinduism is greater than buddhism i am jain l love hindus . Buddhism is a copy of hindu samkhya philosoph,hindu minimasa philosophy etc both samkhya and minimasa schools of hinduism denying creator god
Buddhist texts is more precise and non contradictary. I am Hindu and I cofirm. Hinduism does teaches things like nirvana etc. But the Hindu texts are very confusing and contradicting due too many edits.
Samkhya is not a Hindu philosophy as it doesn't believe in god or vedas but unfortunately Indian scholars count it in Hindu philosophy even though it is a Nastik darshan. Samkhya is the foundation of Shraman traditions which were later hijacked by Brahmins. You being a Jain should be ashamed of promoting Brahmanism as your ancestors were nastiks and were the biggest critics of Brahmanism.
@@jattadeputt9880 you are right Brahmins also started to become Shramans, shiva was shriman god since long time but later they adopted as one of the Hindu gods Meditating in solitude was a shraman tradition so initially Lord Buddha also did that but later he became an enlightened and his teachings become Buddhisms of today
No According to buddisam No all mighty god No created one Hindusam says There is all mighty god Who created world And humans being It was worg According to buddisam No Soul No Eetarnal thing ANATHMA So it was the truth So buddisam is the relality Greater than Hindusam And MAHAWERAS JAINisam

Very well presented.
Also, a short question, if you don't mind: which books would you recommend for the early Buddhist history?
Thank you!
A very good book, based on the early teachings, is The Historical Buddha, the Times, Life and Teachings of the Founder of Buddhism, written by H.W. Schumann.
@@OldWolf1933 Thank you, greatly appreciated! If any others come to mind - with heavy focus on history - please do share.
Thank you for your teaching 🙏
The Brahmans having highly detailed and specific rituals for different occasions brings to mind the Navajo religion, which also has highly detailed rituals for specific occasions with sand paintings and deities evoked, etc.

Praise to the Enlightened One.

9:47
24:38 - metal work, iron was used more 4 weapons.
Buddha was around 2nd century and not 5th century. No wrong information please
You are worg
6th cen BC
Even king Ashoka was in 3 cen bc
Plz dont mislead
Sorry to say,
You have a very poor knowledge in ancient Indian history.
If your comment is correct, the Buddha was born after Ashoka!!!!!!!!
How can that be possible?????
Point of order, respectfully, the Harappan civilization had been trading with the peoples of Iran and Mesopotamia

You are mistaken
Plz go thorough Ashoka pillars
Aryans never came from outside. They were people of Indian descent only.

Get proper knowledge first no one gave you authority to manipulate thoughts
Hinduism is greater than buddhism i am jain l love hindus . Buddhism is a copy of hindu samkhya philosoph,hindu minimasa philosophy etc both samkhya and minimasa schools of hinduism denying creator god
prove it or leave it.

No
According to buddisam
No all mighty god
No created one
Hindusam says
There is all mighty god
Who created world
And humans being
It was worg
According to buddisam
No Soul
No
Eetarnal thing
ANATHMA
So it was the truth
So buddisam is the relality
Greater than
Hindusam
And MAHAWERAS JAINisam
