| Jan 21 at 1:48 | comment | added | Haridasa | @AndriyVolkov that's just a rip-off of Indra Eravana and Iravat and Sakka is like Sakra another name for Indra. Just, because the language is different ie Dhamma versus Dhrama doesn't mean there is clear syncretism. Obviously Buddhist and Hindu dharma is different and separate, but this is a clearly example of syncretism. | |

| Nov 9, 2015 at 21:02 | comment | added | saeed | The question is that how have made this kind of art ? in fact, Buddha was against Hindu gods and people should follow from him because Buddha advised that the man should rely on himself not the gods! | |
