Excellent videos. Thanks for sharing the link. The bit of history I had researched seemed to lead to a guy that was very active trying to defeat a strict caste system and get people to treat each other better. Somewhere along the way he got all this religious meaning assigned to him and it seems it would be something that flew in the face of what he was trying to get people to understand.
So interesting how symbolism in language gets twisted and turned and ultimately becomes dogma. My biggest gripe with any organized religions is when people fail to recognize that it's all passed along from HUMAN generation to human generation and is subject to all the frailties of human ego along the way. What's left this far down the line... how close to any original message can it possibly be?
