The following is the content of the email that I wrote to Warner Bros. If I get a contact no. I will contact them. Will let ya'all know.


"This is in regard to the new flick called "Chandani Chowk to China' where the filmmakes made a huge mistake. Buddha is a Nepali not an Indian. He did get his enlightenment in the jungles of India but by origin and ethinicity, he is a full blooded Nepali. Whom should we address this mistake to?????"


If you are a true nepali, then join the band wagon. You can find the email link in their website.


A TRUE NEPALI BY HEART AND ORIGIN - ARE YOU????

Sometimes some of the Sajhites really surprise me. You call yourselves Nepalese but still get confused about Buddha. He was born in 563 BC to King Suddhodana and Queen Maya in the royal grove of Lumbini between Devadaha and Kapilvastu. At birth he was blessed with the royal name of Prince Siddharta. The Royal Family belonged to the Gautama Gothra of the Sakhya clan of the Solar race. Their kingdom Kapilvastu was between the Nepalese foothills and the river Raptu. The Sakhyas were priestly-warriors, wealthy knights and landowners. He attained nirvana under the Bodhi tree in Bodhgaya. From that day he was called the Buddha or Sakhyamuni. The first sermon of Buddha was held in the deer garden in Banaras. He attained Parinirbana when he was eighty.


The point I'm making is does it take a Historian to find out about Buddha? All you need to do is go into the hundreds of websites and get your facts right. Surely even a science guy can do that. No where is it indicated that the Sakhyas are Nepalese. 

So, what's the big problem here? Like Namastae said..."Get a life!"

Heartbeat...
Who says that Buddha was born in Nepal? May be you are based upon your text books, you read in you school levels..... thats not enough evidence...  there are a lot of historians ( not just the indian ones) who say Buddha was born in India???

I know Buddha was born in Nepal,,, beacuse that is what i am taught and told since I was born.... I also went to Lumbini.... there is a place where it says... excat place where Buddha was born.... So I can believe.....

Now,,, you go 14 miles south from that place.... into India..... You will see the same there as well.. all written in Hindi and English... Birth Place of Buddha... aand many tourist also come there to see the birth place of buddha...

This is something the government should be aware about... Your and Mine effort is not sufficient... I wont be pelting stone at ASCOL/TC saying that the movie humiliated my country... as I did in Hritik Roshan Kanda.... it will be a plain foolishness.....


Jaya Nepal

Historians (Nepali, Indian or otherwise) claim that he was born in Lumbini. They may be right, they may be wrong. Perhaps we should check the Nepal/India boundary in the year 563 BC. We all know that boundaries have changed due to forces of war & politics. As far as I'm concerned what is significantly important is where He attained nirvana i.e. Bodhgaya because that's when He became enlightened and know as the Buddha. Prior to that he was very much a royal prince.


Buddha belongs to the world. Not to Nepal or India. Prince Siddharta has royal status. Buddha doesn't have a citizenship status. So, why are we being so petty over this insignificant matter? Does it make any difference? Will you become a better Buddhist just because he was born in Nepal? Instead of practising his teachings, all of you keep squabbling like spoilt children over a chocolate bar.


If you are so sure that Buddha is a Nepali, than PRACTICE WHAT HE PREACHED.

namaste,


so u will accept that mt.everest belongs to India and buddha is a nepali? i just wish there are very few who thinks like u who thinks buddha is not a shakya but a shrivastav. but not me. when i said, use resource that means, use the freedom of speech based on ur rights. and every nepali has the right to claim that buddha is a nepali. and and most of the time u will get answer. i have done it few times. recently, i talked to the governer's office in NY in order to stop the budget cut for Bronx Zoos and aquarium. even u can call them and voice against it but u have to be a member. i am a member of WCS and WWF. i emailed a senator for similar situations and they have responded promptly.


as far as nepal situation goes, we have not reached to that stage where we can email them or talk to them directly. if it was, i would in the first in line but still i am doing my part, are u? u have to have channels to reach them. which i do not currently. hopefully, one day i will have and u will be the first one to know so keep in touch.


heartbeat,


thanks for the info about shakya is not a nepali and buddha is not a nepali. i am waiting for more responses cause i know there are some knowledgeable sajha visitors. yes, i know u have wealth of info at ur fingertips i.e. google etc but sometimes, u gotta have a in depth info before u speak out.


oops, i thought i had a wonderful life but i may be wrong. thanks to both of you. i will get one now.


gyanguru,


thanks for ur input but somebody has to do it, right?? but i need enough info first.


oblivion,


u will be the first one to know if i am punished or not, okay bro. till then enjoy.

I am tired of all this protest or complaining for such small things, i am sure there will be a bandh for this for sure. Technically Speaking Siddhartha Gautam was born in Lumbini and got enlightened in india where he became Buddha.

Can't complain about everything you know!

Buddha taught how to kill your ego... and yet nothing was learned from him.. India and Nepal are still fighting over his birthplace, simply feeding to their egos instead.

Earth is a speck in the whole universe.. and people are fighting about birthplace on earth.

I think people have missed the message of Buddha altogether.

If Indians had a single strong evidence, they would have probably protested when UNESCO announced Lumbini, Nepal as the birth place of Buddha in 1997. Erecting replica of Ashoka 's pillar and digging a pond won't make any place Budhha's birth place. I am sure UNESCO did enough homework before annoucing Lumbini, Nepal as Buddha's birth place.

Guyanguru,



Nobody is asking you to pelt
stone or fight, healthy discussion is always good. Let me add something more
about Buddha birthplace,



After the birth Buddha the infant was cleaned in nearby pond in Kapilvastu,
Buddha  was put on the foot stone of the walk way of that pond, since Buddha
was a special child  indicated by the  circumstances of his birth as
written in Buddhist book. ppl paid special attention to that stone. When king
Ashok visited the place ppl told him that Buddha first put his feet on that stone
so the King Ashok also paid worship (?) to that stone. It is written in
the History. In order to settle the debate where Buddha was born Nepal govt
requested UNESCO to find some scientific evidence, UNESCO ppl went through the
history and try to locate the stone in order to perform some scientific analysis
When the Archeologist excavate the pond the stone was there and they wanted to
make sure that it is the same stone as mentioned in the history so UNESCO
scientist did carbon dating analysis of the stone and guess what?? The stone
was found to be from Buddha’s time, UNESCO said it. UNESCO also did excavating
of Maya devi temple (the spot where Buddha was thought to be born) and did
carbon dating analysis, they found that it matches the Buddha’s time and
resembles the stone at the pond. Scientists from Japan
were also involved in the UNESCO team because they really wanted to find the
real birth place. Finallly UNESCO was satisfied


Now regarding the Indian site, Buddha’s mamaghar lies in present day India.
Budhha also spent some time there after being Budhha.  These two were neighboring Kingdoms so they
had similar way of Houses/Ponds, like you can fined in  Ktm, Patan and
Bhaktapur they all have mostly similar temple, places etc etc, so this thing
played a trick to give a false believe, and also Indians bureaucrats are more
nationalists then Nepali Bureaucrats the archeologists who did excavation on Indian
site may have been influenced by Nationalist thoughts rather than
professionalism. I got this impression from an Indian guy who worked in central
govt. He was asking me that why Nepal
worship Indian language speaking god? At first I thought he was joking and I
just laughed off, but he repeated that question and he seems to be very
serious. He was around 40 yrs old and had a degree in engineering so this type
of mentality may have played in saying Buddha was born in India.
Another is tourist dollar in early 60s, India
was a close economy they were dying for dollar because of their war with pak
and China. They
needed dollar to keep their economy floating so this situation may have
triggered to claim the Buddha was born in India
so that they can attract lots of dollar tourists.

Indians were unable to prove by scientific
means that those places bear the mark form Buddha’s birth time, you can
duplicate but those duplication lacks the marking of time, and also I have
heard that to cheat here too, Indians are trying to steal some of the artifacts
from Kapilvastu may be true or may not be but who knows.

Wow we nepalese are so good and so generous. We have our own life. Why do we  have to care of anything? Whether Buddha was borned in India or not, whether Mount Everest is in India. It does not stop me from living my life. This is really cool guys, now we can proudly say Nepal as the new state of India in near future as well.


God bless Nepal and Nepalese.

i just recalled similar derogatory remarks over an indian radio station. i forgot what was the thing and if  remember i will write it down here.


anyway, they made some remarks and i heard it. i listen to NPR 90.1 and their station frequently. i called the radio host and told her. she told me to talk to the administration and i did. and he acted promptly and said he look into the issue.


so guys, it is not a crime to tell the facts. sometimes people are not just aware of. and it is true nobody knows everything, right??

There are always going to be people, on the other end. If we know our origins, and the origins of those who we follow, what difference does it really make? Does it automatically make us a country, with outspread wisdom? What knowledge have we gained from him? This has been an ongoing debate, and from what I've seen, it's been gaining momentum over the past few months/years. As a country, we should defend him - his birthplace. Many people I've seen, take it rather personally more so than, other reasons.

thta's the whole point - defending a nation. this why i invited anyone to join the bandwagon but skeptism and cynisim never leave some nepalese.


if anyone wants, they can contact them. it is not about personal vendetta. it is crying about our rights to preserve our heritage. that's all.

like gyanguru said, we need some solid evidence. UNESCO could be a effective source. i will check around while i wait for their response.

I am quite surprized to know about these nepali dude ( i dont wanna mention name) who r prodly saying that Buddha was born in India or he is Inidan. I am refering to the old post in this thread.


I would like to wish them a luck to those nepalese to wear dhoti and worship Inidan people.


And about Buddha's birthplace, I think it is very clear that he was born in Lumbini which is part of Nepal. I feel so sorry for my self and Nepalese people that we r arguing with each other about Buddha's birth place. Were we not supposed to keep our argument to Inidan people or government. But instead we r arguing with each other about the Buddha's birthplace. Those so called nepali guys needs to understand that it has been scientifically, archelogacially, historially proved that he was born in Lumbini.


By the way, let me make u all clear that there was no country named India and Nepal when Buddha was born. Basically he was born when both of these country didnt existed. Because of war, politics, British colonization of India, 1814  Nepal- East India war, war between differnt countries from Hindustan region 1000-1500 years ago and many other factors were involved which drew a new border line between new country Inida and Nepal. Fortunately, Lumbini where Buddha was born came under Nepalese land.


I think I made my case clear to those freaking Nepali who r arguing with us by telling Buddha was Born in India. Shame on u guys.... Why dont u just tell Nepal is a part of India and we r Indians so that u dont have to argue with us abt Buddha's birrthplace.


Peace.............................
