But for the advent of the Great Seer, SANKARACHARYA....!!!....???
...the Awathara (Re-incarnation) of God SIVA.!!!

(1) Lord Gowthama Buddha, the Founder of Buddism, was born in Kapilawasthu, NEPAL.
So when Buddhism sprouted in India at Gaya, Bihar... it expanded around fast and spread its wings to Nepal too.
Some of the Buddhist mutts of such ancient days still exist even now... at Nepal, as a Standing-proof for this fact.
[html:7b5c15ac3c]
[/html:7b5c15ac3c](2) After the Kalinga war, the Emperor Ashoka embraced Buddhism and patronised it highly such that his whole Empire spread over almost the whole of North India became the domain of Buddhism...
..beating out Hinduism.
Then the Buddhist Monks propogated Buddhism all over India... converting all the People to Buddhism, starting from the Kings.
(3) Consequently due to lack of Patronisation, the Hinduism gradually became almost exrinct, until the advent of the Great Sankaracharya, who revived Hinduism, the Vedic Religion.
(4) Adhi Sankaracharya took up a dynamic lead with a vow to rout out Buddhism and Jainism at the earliest,
...and Throne up Hinduism again at the earliest...
Just within a short period of 16 years... He travelled all over India extensively alongwith his main disciple assistants... almost by foot... in search of each Religious Monk Leader of every Region in those hard days
...and challenged them on the Veracity and Viability of Buddhism in counter to Vedic Religion, so called Hinduism.
Invariably Sankaracharya won over every Opponent Leader in the Debate and converted them back to Hinduism along with thousands of their disciples...
...conforming to the pre-conditions.
Thus Hinduism got revived prominently in North India.
(5) Then he took up South India, where Buddhism was firm-rooted with its Head-quarters at Kanchipuram.
He determined to fight it out at its capital itself and so established his Headquarters at Kanchi, and achieved his goal, by defeating all the Kanchi mutt Buddhist heads too.
Eventually the whole of South India too reversed back to Hinduism, only because of the Sole warfoot endeavour of the Great Sankaracharya....the INVINCIBLE of that era.
(6) How Buddhism got spread.... out of India.?
Because of Sankamithra the Daughter of Emperor Asoka... who travelled extensively out of India along with a Batch pf Monks and spread Buddhism...
....exploiting the widespread IGNORANCE, INNOCENCE and poverty of peasants...
...they could be converted from Hinduism (as per History -Not my Opinion)
(7) If Sankaracharya would have set his feet... out of India too...
Hinduism would not have lost its glory there, and Buddhism would have been wiped out almost radically out of India too.!
(8) The main point of Sankaracharya against Buddhism was... that Buddhism is NOT AT ALL A RELIGION...
..but the Human Code of Conduct... of MORAL VALUES...
...and NOT BEYOND... towards the Soul aspects... as is necessary to be qualified as Religion.
Because Buddhism is SOONYA VAADHA.... Does not clearly and pinpointedly speak about God, the Supreme Ruler of Universe.
And even within Buddhism there exist lot of Self-contradictions. .
... it got split up into several splinters... conspicuously with the two prominent Branches as KEENA-YANA and MAHA-YANA
Buddhist Monk- Heads of various divisions... used to constantly vie and oppose with each other...
....amongst themselves of one and the same Religion, Buddhism...
...which unhealthy trend helped Sankaracharya to rout out the whole of Buddhism easily..
....one by one of contradictory divisions.
(9) Concurrently Sankaracharya became cautious to safeguard Hinduism because of similar probable trend in Hinduism too..
...by means of several Branches as Saivam, Saktham, Ganapathyam, Kaumaaram Sauram etc.. within One composite Vedic Religion Hinduism
[html:7b5c15ac3c]
[/html:7b5c15ac3c]Hence Sankaracharya's second battle was to correct such a SICKLY MAN-MADE ATMOSPHERE within one and the same Religion... the Vedic Hindu Religion.
So he went in search of each such Branch-heads, challenged them for debate and won over everyone of them invariably...
Ultimately he established the VEDIC TRUTH.. that all those Six main Branches of ONE HINDU RELIGION...
....Comprising of various Sub-divisions... as Saivam, Saktham etc ..the the God-made branches of MOSAIC FORM...
...being WIDEST OPTIONS... made available, suiting to the individual Mind-set of the multi-faceted devotees.
Rather they are the Branches of One Common Religion... Indirect Vaishnawam... with multi-paths....
...leading towards ONE COMMON GOAL..... Paramathma NARAYANA...
..since Lord Narayana is the SUPREME VEDIC GOD... who has created several other Gods...
..through whom Narayana, so called Parameswara bestows His grace... as the Common Protecor Ruler for ALL HINDUS..
...as categorically declared by Vedas.
Vedic Sankara-Bashyam, Geetha-Bashyam and Sahasranama Bashyam of Sankaracharya firmly assert....
....such an UNDISPUTABLE Vedic stand... quite clearly, undoubtedly and categorically.
Ultimately Sankaracharya could unite all those Splinters of Hinduism within on fold of Vedic Religion, so called Hinduism.
(10) But for the advent of the GREAT SEER Sankaracharya... the whole of India NOW would have been chanting...
...."Buddham charanam gachaami. Sangam charanam gachaami Dhammam charanam gachaami..!!!...
..similar to most of the present Thailand, Burma (Myanmar), Srilanka regions.,..
...wherein the Great Mahaan... the Reincarnation (Awathara) of the God PARAMA-SHIVA Himself...
... as Adhi Sankarachrya.... did not ever set his sacred feet.
