Merge from Heliodorus is not nessesary as both articles potentially are quite large. Wikidās ॐ 20:11, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
This is an interesting article, but it needs references to establish its notability. Prsaucer1958 ( talk) 23:11, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
Not sure why there was a change in the quote from the 1983 book. Presumably the old quote was wrong or the new quote is... AnonMoos ( talk) 11:30, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

In this section of the article it uses the term like cult to define the Vaishnava religion. It is highly disrespectful and offensive. We can say Islam and Christianity are cults not Vaishnava religion. So this word must be removed and instead proper word Vaishnavite religion be used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.42.159.36 ( talk) 17:34, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
"Cult" has a different meaning in the academic study of religious history -- it basically just means "manner of worship"... AnonMoos ( talk) 04:28, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
@ पाटलिपुत्र: Where do you see Heliodorus in the D'Ancona paper? Ms Sarah Welch ( talk) 17:03, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
Allan Dalquist book : Megasthenes and Indian Religion: A Study in Motives and Type is cited for alternative interpretation. In this work author seeks to establish the influence of Christianity on Krishnaism. Hence author goes after all pre-christian references to Krishna like 1. Panini's Vasudeva Sutra, 2. Megasthenes 3.Patanjali and 4.Inscriptions 5.Buddhist references.
His polemics against Heliodorus pillar inscriptions are plain wrong.(refer page 167 of the book). He claims this temple to be Buddhist Indra temple without a shred of evidence.
The book is religiously motivated and this section is best dropped if it is based on this book. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.207.143.16 ( talk) 17:48, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
