    How painful it must have been for those teachers and student to see their temple of knowledge being destroyed in front of their eyes

    In BBC and Google Arts where I first learned about the great Nalanda University, Nalanda was "left to ruins" in 13th century. As if Indians themselves did it suddenly getting bored. Only now learned that it was actually destroyed by foreign invaders, buddhists and brahmins murdered meecilessly, an entire library containing books more than 700 years old was burned down. The guide here is talking about Indians not keeping records but Xuan Zang was meticulous. I think this is wrong. In south India where the effect of the foreign invaders was lesser, they have preserved books dating back to 150-300 AD. So this is a misconception that Indians didn't keep records. They had a lot of records but were burned and destroyed.

    It is sad to know the view of Other lienage of Buddhism knew about Vajrayana Buddhism.Without proper learning about Philosophy they term it as Brahmanical esoteric practice.Hindu Tantra and Buddhist Tantrayana is philosophically as well as in Practice it's totally different.People make comments without knowing its depth or learning it .

    The discussion is great. Salute to the scholars. Buddhism in india was started declining after assassination of last Buddhist emporor and grand son of samrat ashoka by brahmin general pushya mitra shunga and took over the Buddhist kingdom. He slautetered Buddhist monks destroyed buddha viharas and later period shungas devided Buddhists into more than 6500 castes and 72000 sub castes and untouchables by Arya Brahmins who came to India 1200 bc from Euresia.
    Even destruction of Nalanda was done in the hands of muslims and entire blame was put on muslims but real culprits are Brahmins.

      If you are going to bring stories from your ass then provide the factual proff of it aswell nalanda and takshila were places for scholars where they met and debated with each other and people adopted the ideology they were satisfied with lord Buddha gave 1 way of teaching the ultimate truth the Nirvana where as there are 114 ways of reaching moksha the buddhas way being the easiest one if Brahmins were to slaughter they had to learn the art of war practically which they didn't there's no archeological evidence that Buddhists were prosecuted by hindus the majority of evidence suggests that they coexisted throughout the time during the time of islamic invasion there was no one to protect Buddhist ideology in india so they were converted even babasaheb ambedkar said that Aryans didn't invaded they migrated that to somewhere 4000-4500 bc long before Buddhists ideology was even born they had a great affection of writing all the things that happened so they would have definitely written things that they did but history/archeology doesn't has any proper evidence that any of things that you suggested happened

      I don't think you can trace the decline of Buddhism to the reign of Pushyamitra Shunga as his persecution of Buddhist monks was a short lived event and his descendants greatly patronised Buddhism by building stupas, monasteries and vihars. Moreover the Shungas only ruled over a part of nothern India, the rest of the Indian subcontient was ruled by the Satavahana, the Vakataka, the Kushan, the Indo-Scythian and other dynasties, all of which patronised Buddhism. Indeed even into the 4th century CE the Gupta empire despite being a staunch Hindu empire continued patronising both Buddhism and Jainism along with Hinduism.
      I would say the decline of Buddhism began in the post-Gupta empire in which most Indian empires shifted their focus away from Buddhism and towards either Hinduism or Jainism. The last Indian empire to strongly support Buddhism was the Pali empire which was militarily weakened by the other other two great empire in the Subcontinent, the Gurjara-Pratiharas and the Rashtrakutas, and eventually replaced by the Sena dynasty which refused to patronise Buddhism. Buddhism still persisted in pockets of Bihar and Bengal before being eviscerated by the Muslim invasions of Bakhtiyar Khalji.
      There's also no evidence that the Shungas created a rigid caste system, much less that they divded people into thousands of castes or subcastes. It is true that ideas relating to a highly rigid and elaborate caste system arose during the Shunga period in the form of the Dharmasutras. But such a system was developed much later during the reign of the Gupta empire between the 4th and 6th centurires CE. The Guptas enforced the caste restrictions of the Dharmasutras such as marriage, occupation and ritual exclusivity. This is further corroborated by genetic research which shows that the rate of intercaste marriages sharply declined 1600 years ago.

      @@nachiketakumar9645 It was sharing Indic values. No Indians called themselves Hindus at that time. They called themselves Buddhists, Jains, Vardhans, Guptas, Vakatakas etc. They all rooted to the Sanatan Culture. They were talking sanskrit so it's not the Buddhist's language but its Indic language.
