I've seen Vedantic ascetics hate on him because well, all ascetics in general believe in the Brahmin heresy of living like a dirty lunatic hippie as the path to enlightenment, all ascetics are metaphysically detestable scum, which is really the stance Gotama the Buddha made against the Jain ejects that converted to Brahmayana by association and not because they understood what Gotama was saying but that's a whole other topic. Everything Shankara (or Advaita Vedantists borrowing his name to refute sectarian Buddhism) said about Buddhism doesn't apply to presectarian Buddhism. Vedantists usually hate on Gotama because he was "Sramanic" as in your social caste doesn't affect if you can be liberated or not, but Gotama didn't deny that people weren't born into a caste, rather, what they do determines if they move up or down the caste and none of that has anything to do with transcendence. It's also wrong to say that Buddhas are against "Sanatana Dharma", Ananda Buddha had made Dharma the successor. I'm not going to bother posting this in the Indian threads, they're all inferior to Greek monism when it comes to knowing the metaphysics of physics anyways.
