Did Vedic Hinduism really hate Buddha or was it a deep philosophical and social conflict? 🤔
This video explores the historical, philosophical, and social reasons behind the tension between Buddhism and Vedic/Brahmanical Hinduism, without sensationalism.
We examine how Gautama Buddha challenged core Vedic assumptions, including:
Authority of the Vedas
Caste system (varna & jāti) by birth
Ritualism, sacrifice, and priestly dominance
The concept of a permanent soul (Ātman)
God-centered metaphysics
Rather than personal hatred, the opposition arose from a threat to established power structures and worldviews. Buddhism offered a rational, ethical, non-caste path to liberation, which directly questioned Brahmanical orthodoxy.
The video also discusses:
Why Buddha was later absorbed as an avatar of Vishnu
How Buddhism declined in India
The difference between common Hindu attitudes and elite Brahmanical resistance
Modern relevance through Ambedkar and social justice
Connections with existentialism and rational ethics
This is an academic, balanced, and critical analysis—not anti-Hindu, not anti-Buddhist, but pro-understanding.
📌 Watch to rethink Indian philosophy beyond myths and binaries.
