The Wheel of Time

IndiBlogger Badge

If you go down the history lane 
you will see that in 6th century BC
long before the arrival of other religions  
Buddhism and Jainism emerged
as offshoots, as answers
to the degeneration of Hinduism

Decadence to complex rituals
animal and human sacrifices 
deviating far away from the 'real' essence 
of the true Sanatana Dharma! 

It took the great Shankaracharya
to revive and restore religion
through the 'path of knowledge'
debates and discussions
the Gnana Marga... 

The two Indian religions 
particularly Buddhism traveled far and wide 
gained big following and interest world over 
though  almost extinct in place of its birth! 

Time has perhaps come 
to revisit great tenets of Buddhism & Jainism
since change and rejuvenation
as answer to degeneration is natural 

 It is the law of nature!
