Buddhism may lead one to believe that it is anti Sanatana Dharma because of its refusal to accept the Sruthi, Vedas as a tool of knowledge,Pramana. It also advocates Nihilism or Sunya Vada which states that there is no Reality. It shuns Rituals as advocated by The Vedas. It disapproves Idol worship. Incidentally Vedas do not advocate Idol worship either. But Buddhist traditions closely follow the Hindu Puranas. Hindu traditions, Puranas describe the Ten Avatars of Vishnu and one among them is the Kalki Avatar, which is yet to manifest in the present Kali Yug. It is equally interesting that the Bhavishya, Garuda and Vishnu Puranas count Buddha as an Avatar of Vishnu. Kalki Avatar is also cited in the Kalachakra tradition of Buddhism with modifications.
