      Again THERE IS NOTHING Found in ODISHA Regarding ASHOK.

    The video is wonderful as all the others are. I was so surprised to hear about Nigrodh being Susim's son. I wish he were as well known as Ashoka. Taking the first step to forgive Ashoka must have been hard for him but he still did it, and even helped Ashoka out of his sorrow.

    Kalinga had a major influence on maritime trade in Southeast Asia. Kalinga played a key role in spreading Indian culture in Southeast Asia. The Bay of Bengal was known as Kalinga Sagar. At one time, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Indonesia were called by the name of Kalinga. The founders of the Champa (Vietnam), Dheevamari (Maldives) and Funan (Cambodia) kingdoms were from Kalinga. Arab historians have mentioned that the Shailendra dynasty of Indonesia originated in Kalinga, the whole of southeast Asia was part of the Shailendra Empire.

    Ashok had already adopted Buddhism way before Battle of Kalinga. This information is available in some edicts he himself erected. He just took it up seriously because the Jains and Ajivikas were against his conquest of Kalinga and Buddhism was an opposing religion. It is also believed that after the Kalinga war, Ashok got 18000 jains and Ajivikas beheaded.
    It is only a speculation that Ashok improved in his ways due the Battle of Kalinga. He had always been a ruthless and power hungry rule. Perhaps one of the reasons he took up non-violence was that there was virtually nothing left to conquer after Kalinga.
    But again, the only reasons we know a lot more about Ashok and not about Chandragupta and Bindusara is because of the edicts and scripts made during his rule. It seems very strange that there is nothing about Chandragupta and Bindusara on his edicts when they both were mighty rulers and much more benevolent. It raises some doubts if Ashoka got a lot of this done so that history would remember him as the greatest.
    While Ashoka is considered as the greatest Mauryan ruler, I am of the opinion that Chandragupta Maurya has a much more inspiring and legendary story. He formed an empire coming from nothing. There is not a single historical source that calls him an unjust ruler. And the fact that he left the throne at such a young age just takes it up a notch and helps the notion that he was more concerned about prosperity of the kingdom and its people rather than just sitting on throne with all the power.

    • @Glimpses
      @Glimpses  День тому

      True indeed Ashoka became Buddhist four years before the war. And yes! it's strange for Ashoka to not mention his ancestors as other ancient inscription like that of Kharvel, Samudragupta, etc. don't miss to mention their ancestors. Could Chandragupta's exceptional rule be due to influence of Chanakya? Chanakya's thoughts in Arthashastra and Chandragupta's actions seem to have a correlation.

    • @Glimpses
      @Glimpses  Рік тому +1

      In one of the Ashokan Edits Ashoka himself states he accepted Buddhism in his Eigth regnal year, which was before the Kalinga war. However, for this story we refered to the information provided in Buddhist source for the time of his conversion.

    this story is very tragic, thanks for posting this though. but some people say that Ashoka started buddhism 2 n a half year ago before the war of Kalinga and teachers have been teaching us the wrong thing for so long anybody know why?

    • @Glimpses
      @Glimpses  3 місяці тому +1

      Yes Ananya, the teachers are not telling wrong! Ashoka, in his edicts tells us that he was already a Buddhist four years before the Kalinga War. However, a conflicting source, the Buddhist legends, tells us that Ashoka converted after his meeting with Nigrodha. Ashoka's edicts however do tell us that he was very remorseful of the destruction he caused due to Kalinga war. What we have showed in this animation is a story constructed using all these sources! The purpose of these videos are not to tell the exact History but to develop interest in the children and elders too in these topics so that they can study further! So Please do read more and discuss with the teachers to help understand the legacy of Ashoka better, and I hope this video helped you get interested in the story and have a foundational understanding of it 🙂🙂

    Bro actually, it's a Myth and a manipulative story that Ashoka took Buddhism after the Kalinga war. He took it before the Kalinga war due to political reasons as when he was chand Ashoka, many ajnavikas and Jainis were in his court. They were against him for doing so. So he took Buddhism as at that time Buddhism was at its rise and was a competitor of Jainism. So, it was a political reason and not personal for Ashoka to attain Buddhism.

      @Glimpses  4 роки тому +2

      You're welcome! 😊😊😊 The leaders at the time of Independence thought it to be most most fitting since Ashokan Empire marks the beginning of a unified India, a secular state (Ashoka was Buddhist, his grandfather, Chandragupta died as a Jain monk and had a Brahmin Guru, Chanakya) & the emblem and chakra also signifies Dharma or Dhamma i.e. the law of universe and righteousness.

      Yes according to Ashokan Pillars he followed the path of Buddhism since 8th year of his reign. But in Buddhist sources it's said that he became a Buddhist after the battle. Although the first source is more reliable, for this story we referred to the Buddhist sources like Ashokavadana
