Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The Muslim invasion of India nearly wiped out Buddhism. From 712 A.D. onwards, their invasions of India became more frequent and recurrent. As a result of these invasions, Buddhist monks have sought refuge in Nepal and Tibet. In the end, Vajrayana Buddhism faded out in India, its birthplace.
Detailed explanation-2: -After 49 consecutive days of meditation, Gautama became the Buddha, or “enlightened one”. He made this announcement in public at about 528 BCE and gained a group of disciples who became Buddhist monks and traveled throughout northern India spreading his teachings.
