question?????

[Guest guest]

Pranam!! Prabhupada ki jay!!!!!

I looking for answer: According to Jiva Goswami Lord Buddha appears when two

thousand years of the Kali age have passed :- tatah iti ayam kaler

abda-sahasra-dvitiye gate vyaktah. ( Krsna-sandarabha Vol I anucchedad 24) that

means 1000 yeras B. C.And in the firts reconstruction of Hindu Chronology by Sri

William Jones, there are two dates, one of Years from 1788 A. D. and other of

dates and Lord Buddha is appointed for 1027 B.C. ( Vid. in Rational

"Mythology", By Sada Puta das, 1993 in BTG Jan/Feb 1994 p. 26.) But one

researcher, Prasada Gokhale, of Fredericton New Brunswick University  show very

interesting evidences that after, the identification of Sandracottus (325 B. C.)

mentioned by Meghastenes, the Greek historian, with the Chandragupta Murya by

Sri William Jones was considered the  "Sheet anchor" and base on this

assumption, a chronology of India history was reconstructed by dated the Buddha

in 500 B. C., under the presupposition that the Asokavarna was the Buddhist

converted; but there are difficulties in this datation, because the Greek

records mention Xandramas and Sandracyptus as kings inmediataly before and

after Sandracottus. These names in any way are not phonologically similar to

Mahapadma Nanda and Bindusar or Asokam who were the predecessor and successor

of Chandragupta Maurya, respectively. However, if Sandracottus refers to

Chandrgaupta Gupta, the Xandramas reckons to be his predecessor ¨Chandrashee

alias Chandramas and Sandrocyptus to be Samudragupta. The phonetic similarity

becomes quite apparent and also, with the assistance of other evidence from

(Bhagavata Purana 12.1.12-13), confirm the identify of Sandrocottus to

Chandragupta Gupta. (Vid. Antiquity and Continuity of Indian History in http:

www.egrups.com/docvault/vediculture. or ask to Vrindavan das

vediculture) But the cuestion is, what is the more accurate

datation of Lord Buddha? because, there are apparent historical, astronomical

and archaeological evidences that Lord Buddha was on the earth in 1887- 1807 B.

C. (idem. part 5 14.)
