Tag Avatars of Vishnu

Kalki Avatar In Buddhism Vaishaka Dwadasi

Buddhism may lead one to believe that it is anti Sanatana Dharma because of its refusal to accept the Sruthi, Vedas as a tool of knowledge,Pramana.

It also advocates Nihilism or Sunya Vada which states that there is no Reality.

It shuns Rituals as advocated by The Vedas.

It disapproves Idol worship.

Incidentally Vedas do not advocate Idol worship either.

But Buddhist traditions closely follow the Hindu Puranas.

Hindu traditions, Puranas describe the Ten Avatars of Vishnu and one among them is the Kalki Avatar, which is yet to manifest in the present Kali Yug.

It is equally interesting that the Bhavishya, Garuda and Vishnu Puranas count Buddha as an Avatar of Vishnu.

Kalki Avatar is also cited in the Kalachakra tradition of Buddhism with modifications.

Balarama Is Shiva Transferred In The Womb Sankarshana

Vishnu then impregnated the belly of the goddess Devaki with two strands of hair, one black, one white.

To ensure their safety, their essence was transferred before birth to Rohini, who also desired a child.

At birth, Krishna had a darker complexion, while Balarama was born fair.

The other name of Balarama is also Sankarshana, meaning a spirit transferred between two wombs.
