Why Did Huns Destroy Takshashila University? 

Taxila is a British mind set Takshashila is a pride

Taxila what's Taxila it's Takshashila. Abhijit Sir is such a great sigma male.

Takshashila Unviersity situated in Takshashila City and Takshashila city was founded by Bharata ( brother of Rama) , he established this city as per his son's name ( Taksha ). In mahabharat Takshashila has mentioned when Bhima visited to this city.

We had such great warriors who throughout their lives kept fighting the invaders and some Mr Gandhi taught us to throw weapons and let the enemy beat the shit out of us.

Those White Hun's ( Toramaan ) Were Defeated By Yashodharman Kalchuri Son Of Prakashdharman. He is called the Adhiraj .......!!!

Every branch of orthodox Hinduism allowed this open inquiry, and allowed debate within various sects. Buddha’s debates with the orthodox Sanātana Brahmins are the best example of this approach. Buddha was every inch a Hindu, but he differed from the orthodox view on the question of existence of the Ātman (loosely translated as the eternal soul). Hindus and the followers of Buddha debated the question for over a millennia till Hinduism won a final victory led by the Ādi Shankar.

After watching this video, I went straight to Wikipedia, surprised!!! Now the info is corrected

British started translating names in Hindu religion which contrary to basic grammatical rules. Ganga is translated as Ganges.

Mihirkula was decisively defeated by king yashovarman of magadh twice. He let him go once (indians and their non violence) and but in the 2nd battle he was killed. After that the remaining huns started to completely assimilate in indian culture.

"It's in North-West Indi- ... Pakistan."

It's indeed Takshshila. Wow i didn't know that Mihir Kula was an atheist. Edit:Guys I've made a video on The Muslim Caste System please check that out.

As per our eminent historians Ramayan & mahabharat written in Gupta period, but we found c.2200 years old Heliodorus pillar ( Attribute to Lord Krishna), c.2200 old Agathocle's Vasudeva coin, we found 3000 years old rock edict of lord vishnu's 7th incarnation at inside Ayodhya Demolished Babri Masjid.

We have 1200 universities in ancient india. Some of them were wOrld famous and center study and research.

Sir, thank you for enlightening us with real history and inspiring us with your presentation of facts.

Thanks Mr Chavda for your dedication and devotion carrying out your research and finally sharing your findings.

I could listen to you all day, you are a fountain of knowledge, thank you xxx

most huns were defeated by yashodharman

Takshila was not a Buddhist governed university like nalanda. It is known that there was many Hindu professors and students. So the very theory of mihirkula destroying it because he was shivite, (which he was not) and he destroy it due hate for Buddhism is a ridiculous and laughable. The left wing historians to normalize baktiyar khilji, the destryoer of nalanda university. 😂😂😂 This is very old tactics. The very Aryan invasion is also result of that tactics.

I learned something new. Thank you for enlightening us.

Modern historians have identified the Hunas to be the tribe of Hephthalites and/or the tribe of Xionites of central Asia close to the western parts of China. According to them, these Hunas crossed Khyber Pass and entered India during the reign of Gupta dynasty. Evidently, historians have concocted that the Hunas belonged to a foreign tribe that invaded India during the time of Gupta dynasty. But there are numerous references of Hunas in Mahabharata and Puranas which unambiguously indicate the existence of Hunas in north-western region of India since Mahabharata era. Hunas and Hārahunas were Indian tribes of North-western region Hunas are mentioned as “Mlechchas” in Mahabharata and Purana. Mahabharata also refers to another tribe named “Hārahuna”. Sabhāparva records that Nakula subdued Hunas, Harahunas, Chinas, Sakas, Ramathas etc. in the west. Hunas and Hārahunas alongwith other western tribes were forced to pay tribute to Yudhishthira when he performed Rajasuya Yajna in Indraprastha. रमठान हारहूणाांश च परतीच्याश चैव ये नृपााः तान सवाान स वशे चक्रे शासनाद एव पाण्डवाः | 2.29.11 चीनान हूनाञ शकान ओडू न पवातान्तरवाससनाः वार्ष्णेयान हारहूणाांश च कृ र्ष्णान हैमवताांस तथा | 2.47.19 पसिमासन च राज्यासन शतशाः सागरान्तन्तकान पह्लवान दरदान सवाान सकरातान यवनाञ शकान | 3.48.20 हारहूणाांश च चीनाांश च तुखारान सैन्धवाांस तथा जागुडान रमठान मुण्डान सत्री राज्यान अथ तङ्गणान | 3.48.21 यवनाश च स काम्बॊजा दारुणा मलेच्छ जातयाः सक्षद् रुहाः कु न्तलाश च हूणााः पारतकै ाः सह | 6.10.64 There is no reference of Hunas or Harahunas in Ramayana. Kalidasa’s Raghuvamsa mentions that King Raghu defeated Hunas who probably reside on the banks of Sindhu river. Historians ridiculously distorted the meaning of “ससन्धुतीर” and concocted that Hunas lived in the valley of Oxus River. Mallinatha, the commentator of Raghuvamsa, clearly identifies the place in the northwestern Kashmir. Mahabharata also indirectly indicates the place of the kingdom of Hunas to be close to Uttara Jyotisha. सवनीताध्वश्रमास्तस्य सिन्धुतीरसवचेष्टनैाः | दुधुवुवाासजनाः स्कन्धाम्ल्लग्नकु ङ् कु मके सरान्॥ 4-67 तत्र हूणावरोधानाां भतृाषु व्यक्तसवक्रमम् | कपोलपाटलादेसश बभूव रघुचेसष्टतम् ॥ 4-68 काम्बोजााः समरे सोढुां तस्य वीयामनीश्वरााः | गजालानपररन्तिष्टैरक्षोटैाः साधामानतााः॥ 4-69 Hunas were dominating in the west during the lifetime of Kalidasa. It is possible that Kalidasa mistakenly speculated them to be Hunas whom King Raghu subdued. In all probability, Hunas were a clan of Kambojas because the Huna King Toramana calls himself “Shahi” in his coins. Kalidasa also indicates Hunas to be a clan of Kambojas. Since Ramayana does mention Hunas or Harahunas, it is possible that these clans of Kambojas evolved in post-Ramayana era. Kalhana’s Rajatarangini and King Mihirakula Kalhana gives the historical account of a Kashmir king Mihirakula. According to Kalhana, Kashmir King Mihirakula subdued many kingdoms of India including Chola, Karnata, Lata and also Simhala. Historians have wrongly identified Kashmir King Mihirakula to be a Huna King of Gupta era. First of all, Kashmir King Mihirakula reigned around 1185-1135 BCE and secondly, he was the son of Vasula of Gonanda III dynasty. Therefore, it is totally absurd to identify Kashmir King Mihirakula to be a Huna King. Moreover, Kalhana never referred to Mihirakula as a Huna king. Huna Invasion during the reign of Gupta dynasty Gupta dynasty reigned around 335-92 BCE. Western Kshatrapas were ruling in Ujjain and Gujarat during the 3rd century BCE. Chandragupta II (278-242 BCE) killed a Saka kshtrapa of Ujjain to free his elder brother Ramagupta around 279 BCE. Chandragupta II was regularly in conflict with Saka kshatrapas and finally drove them away from Ujjain and Gujarat around 246 BCE. Saka Kshatrapas of Ujjain and Hunas of north-western India had good political relations because both tribes originally belonged to north-western India. In all probability, Hunas invaded on Gupta kingdom for the first time during the reign of Kumaragupta (241-199 BCE) with an objective to recover the lost kingdom of Saka kshatrapas but Yuvaraja Skandagupta (199-177 BCE) successfully encountered the Huna invasion and forced them to retreat. The Bhitari inscription eulogizes Skandagupta and records his victory over Hunas. Though Hunas had failed in their military objective but this invasion created a deep animosity between Hunas and Guptas.

Informative video as always

Thank you so much. I have Hun ancestry and have friends I love very much in the Punjab. Now I know we are distantly related, I just couldn't put my finger on it for a long time. 🥰

Great information in video as well as in comments

Buddhism and Hinduism is one and the same thing 💯

Very good insights Abhijit ji

All Religions that believe in the concept of Reincarnation and Moksha are Dharmic "Religions" or I may say Dharma/Dharmic way of Life Jains Buddhists and Hindus Believe in Moksha to be the priority in our cycles of life and to get rid of the Maya and Worldly Things.... And so do Sikhs..... (They call it "Mukti" Instead of Moksha) Communists will make us think we're different and divided but in reality our core concept and belief is the same Buddhists=Hindus=Jains=Sikhs

A University doesn't mean only building. A university is important because of books collections. When books were burnt, what would you do with ruined building

Great knowledge ❤

#AskAbhijit We know ancient India had so many great universities, so much wealth, such great thinkers, great technology etc etc etc. With so much of resources why couldn't we defend ourselves from multiple foreign invasions?? Why couldn't we build defensive capabilities against those foreign invaders??

Mihirkula was no exception . The behaviour of the Huns against the Roman Empire was no different . Essentially , they lacked the dharmic restraints and respect for dharmic injunctions , which all the major ancient civilizations adhered to . Influence of Ram and Krishna Avatar was everywhere . Even Socrates spoke about the benevolent king , a derivative of Ram Rajya . The huns who attacked elements of Roman Empire repeatedly are very accurately presented in the documentary on Attila The Hun . (There is also a movie on Attila the hun , but documentary is very well made). The huns were never interested in administration , only in loot , rape , plunder , arson , in terrorizing. Extremely good horse riders , speed and surprise was their forte . They were physically were strong and energetic , there was one big handicap , they were loathe to face determined and prepared enemies . Which is what they encountered in India . The Kshatriya dharma , spelt out so explicitly in Bhagwat Gita by the Supreme Lord himself , forbade showing your back to any challenger . These characteristics , built into the Kshatriya DNA over generations and generations of selection , turned the tide rather early against the huns . Since the huns had no respect for dharma , it soon turned into a weeding out process . Today , the huns have Rajput gotras , which shows their is good proportion of Rajput blood in their veins . Some of them escaped into sand dunes of Thar , still show the original pure white complexion light eyes of Hepthalites. A princeling of the last king was smuggled out and nurtured secretly at a place known as Sinsini .

Takshashila is the name. Taxila is the colonial mindset. Mumbai is the name, Bombay is the brown coolie mindset.

turth is we are dharmic people.. ( either sikh, jain, budh, hindu(opposed by others), etc..) we all are one.. child of our bharat mata

Last hun king name was Yudhishtira, Even many saka/Scythians kings name was Bhimarjuna, Arjuna, Rudrasena. It means in very ancient times they were connected with Vedic culture or their ancestor kings were well known of Arjun/Bhima, even in Mahabharat the Sakas are mentioned along Bahlikas/Bactria, kambojas/Badakshan, Tusharas/Tokharistan, China kshatriya/xingiang part people , Daradas/Dardic , Yavana/greeks but in mahabharat vedvyas ji designated them as mlecchas. There must be a cultural connection between hunas and Sakas with vedic period. If turks had connections with Vedic cutures then they wont destroyed Afg or various temples or they wont do forced conversion.

Great information 👍

Most appropriate topic.

Yes, Wikipedia did mention him as follower of Shaiva Sect who destroyed Buddhist Shrines. It's also mentioned that Chinese pilgrims noticed that he was an atheist and barbaric and even the Brahmins consider him a Mlechh.

Sir how pyramids were made ? It's just so fascinating.. I would love if u'll put some light over it 🙂

Sorry, can the reason for the destruction also be because during Alexander's invasion many gurus stood against him and so the destroyer of Takshashila also understood that and as strategy destroyed it so that no intellectual counter can come up against it.

Buddhists have their roots in Hinduism. But Dharma isn’t a ism which is monotheistic concept. For us Buddhist Jambhuvipa or Arya bumi is the holy land of India.

I am very inspired by you and Want you to become my Guru (maarg darshak) 😇🙏

Informative

Taxi la 😂😂

In the quest for Parabrahm and Moksha (to enlighten oneself and attain nirvan) our population became highly selfcentred and introverted. I & ME were important then the society and country hence our kings never looked outwards and were always defensive and not offensive. This is the primary reason why very few kings crossed the borders and attacked enemy/foreign land. That's why it's said over religious is harmful.

Apologies Sir it's not among the world's oldest university but its world's first university. It existed before Nalanda University also. Around 500 BC

Know first time Taxila destroyed by Huns ! Thanks 🙏

Sir which book would you prefer to start reading Indian history?

There is an Engineering University in Taxila aka Takshashila. It's called UET Taxila. Taxila is approximately 30 km away from Islamabad at the border of Punjab and KPK province of Pakistan

You have the good art of debunking.

#ASKABHIJIT Can you please talk about the geopolitical angle of Vikram Lander failure? Watched your latest podcast and I am really curious to know more on this

Takshashila rules!! Thank you for your video sir!!

It is TAKSHASHEELA VISHWAVIDYALAY, 'Taxilla' is an Anglicized mispronunciation ,and doesn't make any sense.

1:04 🥶🥶

I'm confused please clear this , in ancient India the warriors like in Mahabharata or Ramayan period there average height is above 6.5 or even 7feet I hear it from many peoples so I asked 🙏.

Sir Can you share more lIght on the topic Builderberg Group..

Sir can you please give some information about samrat samprati (grandson of samrat ashok) and I heard a rumor that he was one of the reason that Chinese kings built great wall of china and many more than you.

#AskAbhijit Sir can you plz tell exactly how do you find original (unedited) writings of people (like gandhi Sarojini naidu etc). Online Or how to find reliable untampered orignal historical texts etc

#AskAbhijit Sir the answer to this question is supposed to be known by many but i have no idea how is the timeline of years divided Like AD,CE,BC and who came up with this idea and what was the thought process behind that

Sir plz make video on mahapadmananda

#AskAbhijit Sir, the current government is very vocal about retaking POK, and our defense minister also mentioned it in a speech on Kargil Vijay Diwas. Do you think India is preparing for war with pakistan, if so then is this the best time to wage a war with pakistan?

Sir, please share what you know about CIA and IB's collaboration on Nanda Devi nuclear device which caused chamoli flood and is a threat to massive amount of Indian citizens.

#AskAbhijit sir I watched whole seties of prateek mohan on angkor wat and he said that it was first a hindu temple but then Buddhist people destroyed it and converted it into buddhist temple. Please tell us about it.

Abhijit: I would like know about Huns, not only the ones invaded and assimilated in India, also the branch led by Aattilla who taught Europeans few lesson.

#AskAbhijit Sir, what according to you should be the best way to mark time apart from the BC/AD and BCE/CE? Don't you think this is slightly or gravely giving a false perception of time and the events that took place during such time?

Huns also destroyed Nalandha and was later restored by Skandagupta. I may be wrong but this is was that I learnt somewhere

I loved when he said MAINLAND INDIA

#askabijith sir, my mind blown away when i read about shunga's persecution of buddhists. Can u spot some light on this topic.

Taxila...what's Taxila..that tone😁

Takshashila University existed even during Mahabharat times but sri krishna and sri balram went to ujjaini to study where they met sudama . this could mean it had not achieved great eminence .panini had taught there prior to chanakya during which time it had grown to be the elite gurukul .

Thats an uppercut

#AskAbhijit Is it possible for the dark energy to run out eventually? And if it was to happen the universe should start contracting but where would the energy go afterall our universe is a closed system, i mean by that is the energy which was used in expanding in the universe must go somewhere if the universe starts contracting because of law of conservation of energy, would it create dark energy again and thus create a physical equilibrium and maintain the size of universe for indefinite time.

Mihirkula was belived to be ardent devotee of lord shiva

❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

#AskAbhijit Sir today I read in a Bengali newspaper that the women skeleton discovered in rakhigari has steppe ancestry. What is your opinion on this.

🙏

Least we expect from Abhijit is that he pronounce words correctly, तोरमाण and मिहिरकुल.

#AskAbhijit are there any great engineering marvels in South India built after the 14th century when Islamic invasions occured, until the domination of British Raj?

#AskAbhijit Could please throw some light on the French diplomat Charles Maurice de Talleyrand

#Askabhijit Hi Sir.. can you please put some light on why Armenia and Azerbaijan war is not covered by west or world like Russia war on Ukraine.

This is my city now in taxila

#AskAbijith Sir, can you recommend some books to truly understand the modern history of INDIA?

✌️🙏🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳

Takshashila was destroyed by Hindu kings at the time of shunga and Gupta dynasty by the command of Brahmins at that time...

Ok

Taxila is indeed propagated in our history books as anglicised version of Takshashila!

Sir please write our history books.

#AskAbhijit Do Indians (Hindus) have a disadvantage vis-à-vis the archaeological method, as they cremate their dead?

Sir.... Both Taxila or Takshshila is same.

Tora mann destroyed, razed varanasi and mathura as well mlecchas couldn't never be part of fold and never will

#AskAbhijit Can u explain Iran vs Pakistan war ?

Why is trishul on mihirkula's coins?

Abhijit, While it may be true that huns were atheist or shamanism, Let's not forget that rajatarangini of kashmir praises him as great kashmiri ruler. Due to this mordern scholars call him great shaivite or patron Kashmir shaivism.

These Huns ruled over the NW corner of India, not India in whole. Maybe this could be clarified.

any suggestion on books regarding wallachian history

Takht means seat of authority

AND IT IS TIME FOR ALL THE INDO-ARIAN LANGUAGES SPEAKING NATIONS/COUNTRIES UNITE AND RESTORE THE SANCRIT/AVESTO LANGUAGE AS THE COMMON LANGUAGE FOR ALL THE INDO-ARIAN LANGUAGES SPEAKING NATIONS/COUNTRIES. IT IS TIME TO CREATE "THE UNION OF INDO-ARIAN LANGUAGES NATIONS/COUNTRIES" EU HAS IT IS OWN UNION, WE SHOULD CREATE OUR UNION AS WELL.

Hunic means HUNZA? Please mention from where the huns came from.

The White Huns (svetahuna), in incredibly barbaric nation born from a mix between mongolians and white Tokharians, imitated the Kushanas, excepted that they hated Buddhism. This religion had then been encouraged for centuries, starting with the Greek-Bactrian Kingdom.... Why ? They wanted soft Indians who spend their time meditating. The Hephtalites were massacred by similar people : the Turks.
