Indians are not sure in which part of India they
should claim as birth place of Buddha, some even say that he was born in Bhubaneswar,
southern India for example visit the site

Please read what was published in The Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland

February, 1897. pp. 429-433 in site

The site  http://www.lumkap.org.uk/Lumbini%20On%20Trial.htm, Challenges the Buddha birth place in Nepal. But its challenges mainly based on the distances

between different places but then the questions arises

1)      Is the conversion factor unit of distance to mile is correct. What if the conversion is not correct

2)      The distance mentioned is air to air distance or distance by foot road, and if it is foot road how the present day researched track the same road as traveled by those Chinese visitors.

3)      Finding similar stupas ponds temple doesn’t prove the birthplace unless otherwise proven scientifically.

4)      Even the similar name doesn’t prove, you need to have scientific evidence. For example “Authya” is the capitol of Thailand and lots of Thai kings bear the name “rama” it doesn’t prove that Ram’s       “Audhya” was in Thailand.

5)      Creation of duplicate of famous places/structures can be seen from time to time in human history like coliseums and Pyramids, so the ppl at that time after the kapilvastu area was destroyed by the war just before the death of Buddha may have created similar structures just to remind the old glory of their town I don’t have evidence. This I said because if the ppl believed the site they claim is the original one then they should conduct the scientific analysis of the artifacts. You can’t just talk the talk and say it is the proof.

6)      At present in Dhaka there is live size duplication of “Taj Mahal” if something happened to this sub continent and get ruined. What if an archeologist after 2000 yrs excavating the “Taj Mahal” in Dhaka is the original one and that found during the excavation of Agra is not. This is the perfect example of how dangerous is considering similar thing as evidence. In that case only the scientific analysis can prove it.

7)      If you carefully read the article then you will realize and you can apply the same level doubt on his points as he is applying about the Lumbini.What we have about the Lumbini? Proof from

UNESCO. If they are so sure about their research why don’t they ask UNESCO to
examine their evidence and challenge our claim? That can be very intellectual
things to do. Or why doesn’t Govt. of India do that? They know they are just
talking the talk just for the sake of research.

Indians and Japanese also excavated the site. Japanese will never agree to
fund if they haven’t found any evidence site: http://www.snowlionpub.com/pages/appeals10.html

1.The evidence regarding UNESCO excavation, there were lots of news published in "Gorkhapatra " and "Rising Nepal", from 1999 to 2004.  I goggled but I found only some news regarding the rebuilding of excavated site in 2005. May be those papers were not online in that time. But anyway the site address posted by Comcast is good evidence.2.

2.Regarding my opinion about mentality of most of the Indian bureaucrats is my personal experience I don’t think these things can be recorded as evidence.

3. Regarding the lack of dollar in India there were lots of report (published later in late 90s) how Indian economy was suffering from this problem at that time, I forgot
the paper but you can get impression by reading http://books.google.com/books?id=SUC_viYXYmIC&pg=PA117&lpg=PA117&dq=dollar+reserve+in+india+during+1960&source=web&ots=xBNng2JBWk&sig=RjHU9lBY_ADBb7jk8HDfp9XxZcE&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=7&ct=result#PPA119,M1

Darlagdo manche,

You protest to Warner bros is good but in this type of situation one should ask the question like “ On what basis you portrayed/indicated/mentioned India as birth place of Buddha as far as my understanding Lord Buddha was born in Nepal” so that the burden of proof is on their shoulder not yours
