It is believed that Pushamitra Sunga was a Saivite Brahmin Commander-in-chief of Bruhadratha who was encouraging Buddhism and even punishing those who do not follow the principles of Buddhists. At the same time, the Buddhism also had experienced internal squabbles. There were two branches one is called Hinayana and the other Mahayana. In spite of that, both were experiencing the Royal patronage and it was Hinduism which was in a delicate position for its survival though possessing vast scriptures of Vedas, Brahmanas, Suktas, Great Epics. As it was losing the patronage and the cruelties were growing more and more on non-Buddhists a timely massacre of Brihadratha put an end to the dynasty of Mauryas and subsequently drugged the grave for Buddhism which was by that time became almost similar to Hinduism. |
