We are living in 21st Century, about several thousand years have since passed in this Yugh popularly known as Kaliyug as per Hindu Sanathana Darmic / Vedic Principles and Teachings.
1) 2015 years since Christian Era started
2) 1436 years since the advent of Muhammad, (PBUH) (Prophet Peace Be Upon Him), purportedly the last known messenger on Earth as is claimed thus far. The Islamic Calendar that's popularly known as Hijri.
3) 1393 years since the advent of Imam Al Hussain, the great grandson of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), whose prophecy has been followed in Persia (Iraq/Iran/Syria and part of Kurd Region)
3) 1937 years since Salivagana Sahapth dating anecdotes
4) 5116 years since known Kali Purush commenced his earthly overtures
5) 1425 years, as per Pasali Calendar, just little short of Islamic Hijri Calendar cited above
6) 1190-91 years, as per Collam (Kollam) Keralite Calendar, whose prophecy it is God knows!!
7) 2541 years since or 2071 yeas since either way based on two theologies followed by Jains. Vir Samwat 2541 Vikram Samwat 2071 is running as per Jain Calendar. The prophecies followed by the followers of one of the greatest Saints of India, Shri Mahaveer (Samana Dynasty that follows suit thus!!)
8) 2558 years since Lord Buddha came up with his prophecies

As per certain Theory goes around, Jesus Christ, he himself is supposed to have followed and spread the teachings of Buddha as he has purportedly visited Himalayas and Indo-Tibet-Region and had reportedly breathed his last near Kashmir valley and/or present day Afghanistan region. That's a mystery. That's far far away from his Crucification days @ Jerusalem or Nazaret or wherever on earth in the Deserts of present day Israel / Gaza / Palestine.
As per that Theory, Jesus Christ just preached Buddha's teachings, with the help of his 12 followers in Simon (Peter), Andrew, Paul, Peter, James (son of Zebedee), John (brother of James), Bartholomew, Thomas, Mathew, Thaddaeus (Jude), Simon (the Cananean), Judas (Iscariot). There are others who do not form part of the 12 Apostles above, in Joseph and so on. There are umpteen number of writeups, articles and researches done by many that's available on Google and Wikipedia archives stating 'Christianity just borrowed ideas and principles from Hindu Sanathanic verses as well as Buddhist teachings and they have just relabeled it in their 'western' names using methodologies and procedures that are 'best known' to them just only to profess to the outside world as if it is 'theirs'.
Between the Abrahamic Religions in terms of analogies, anecdotes and thoeries that are followed by billions of people around the world, they are just less than 2000 years old.
Let's compare few common names in Sanathanic Hindu mythology as against Islam or Christian Prophecies.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_(name)
The name Jesus used in the English New Testament comes from the Latin form of the Greek name Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous), a rendition of the Hebrew Yeshua (ישוע), related to the name Joshua.[1][2] The name is thus related to the Hebrew verb root √yšʿ "rescue, deliver" and one of its noun forms, yešuaʿ "deliverance".[3] There have been various proposals as to how the literal etymological meaning of the name should be translated, including YHWH saves, (is) salvation, (is) a saving-cry, (is) a cry-for-saving, (is) a cry-for-help, (is) my help.[4][5][6][7][8]
When it comes to a Religion or its prophecies, who is real here? None.
Every King all over the world under any dynasty in Africa, Europe, UK, former Soviet Union, Americas, South American Nations, Far East, West Asia, South Asia, Central Asia, Australia and New Zealand, Koreas, China, Tibet, and the ASEAN regions including Japans, everywhere, it has been a widely accepted practice by Rulers, Kingdoms and Empires or Colonial Masters all over (in modern etymology), it is just go around and fight with the opponents and acquire Land after Land, kingdom after kingdom, empire after empire and get them under one Ruler's roof to build the greatest Empire on Earth.
Napolean Bonapat, great Alexander, British Monarche, Spanish, Romans, Greeks, Turkish, Meditarenean Nations, nobody is an exception to this. So was our very own Indus Valley rulers from Raja Harsh Vardhan, Krishna Deva Rayar, Vijayanagar empire, Samrat Ashoka, Kalingas, Chalukyas, Kings of the North in Himalaya region, present day Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Assam (Kamaroopam), and far Eastern India.
Come to the west, there were Rajputs, Maharashtrian Origin popular one being Chatrapathi Shivaji and so on.
Come to the south, Cholas, Pandyas, Cheras, Udayars, and so on.
Mid 15th or 15th Century the arrival of Persian or Moghul rulers right from Gajini Mohamed, Allahuddin Gilji, Sher Shaw Suri, later Babbar, and his hierarchy in Humayun, Jehangir, Samrat Akbar, Shah Jahan, Aurangazeeb the last in the league of Moghul Empire, before they succumbed to Colonial Masters from the British Land plus here and there Portugal, Dutch and other invaders who ruled over this Land far until Malayan territories.
Our very own Cholas have been known to conquer foreign lands as far as Bali, Indonesia, Cambodia, VietNam and so on.
Raja Vikram (not the Vikaramaditya) managed to go West towards Persia and Arab region; somehow managed to go until Saud region (present day Saudi Arabia and Kuwait). Wherever such conquers occur, eventually each King manages to take his followers, set of Priests and religious anchors, Cooks and a big Sena of Warriors (Elephants, Horses and Donkeys, Dogs etc.).
Thus formed the idol-worship patronage in Middle East and/or West Asia. We have thus been told of several Upanishads, Upanyasas by famous anchors as late as 2015, since 100 years now at least, that the famous Rama Rajya was vehemently present NOT just in India, but also covered from Pacific in the West to Pacific in the East, Arctic in the North and deep down South in Indian Ocean, even near Maldives, Mauritious and so on. Not to forget the Dhanuskoti, Lamorian continental theories.
Lord Ganesha's idols were found as recent as 5-10 years near Turkish Kurdistan region by archaeological surveys; use of certain Herbs as in Indian sub-continent, was equally popular in Egyptian civilization, Chinese methods and theologies were almost similar to India too.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and his followers vehemently opposed Idol Worship quoting Quranic verses where there is a mysterial anology or theory goes around by historical analysts world over as to state 'what's inside Kaaba, in Makkah?

Shri Ramanan, a retired public servant or so (no clue!!) he has done enormous research on wordly matters, including science, religion, spiritualism across world's most practiced religions, and he has his analogy of factual facts that nobody can give a counter-debate.
Look at the topics of his interest in his blog, one would be amazed on his wealth of research for more than 6 years, he has been contributing and published articles after articles on a continuous research I would say.

All of these as a unified Rama Rajya (Lord Rama's Kingdom) was there cohesively for ages and Yugha Yughas, where a certain catastrophic tsunami like mega event occurred breaking the ice whereby the Indian civilization got bifurcated to Africas in the West, and Australias or Australasias in the East, Maldives and Mauritius in the South and present day German, Norway, Finland as well as the present Baltic nations in former Soviet Unions, not to forget the CIS region of the modern era,
If you read certain chapters of Sundara Kandam in Ramayana epic, specially those leading to the narration and illustration of Lord Rama's Crowning event as Emperor of Ayodhya - the so-called birthplace of Rama - the Ikshavagu Kula dynasty - where RamRajya was popularly known to be centered around - read those chapters in native Valmiki's narration and/or any other authors like Tulsidas, Tamil Poet Kambar, you will find mentions about Artic to the North, Indian Ocean to the south and so on. That would prove the length, width and breadth of Ram Rajya that was there historically.
Sanskrit as a language has some parlance in German language; visualize Swastika of Nazis and our very own Swastika symbol in our Hindu mythology, just the shape and pattern is different.
The popular Enterprise Resource Planning Application called SAP is basically written in programming codes called ABAP, but it is in German basically; experts say if you know German and Sanskrit, you can easily crack the code vehemently.
The native Badhus or Saud Arabs, Kurds, Turks, Persians in the west have just picked up idol worship, perhaps who knows, via Raja Vikram's conquered regions as taught by his Priests and so is Shiva worship in the form of Linga is known popularly in Russia, Turkey, Makkah or Madina region and even in Mexico, Africa and some of the Australian and Latin American tribes world over.

Let's compare few common names in Sanathanic Hindu mythology as against Islam or Christian Prophecies.
- Rama is Amar (just read from right to left, as simple as that!!)
- Krishna is Christ (converted form of Krish to Kris to Chris and so he is Jesus Christ)
- Jesus himself is the form of name derived from Yeshua (Hebrew) or Jesous (Greek) see the details below.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_(name)
The name Jesus used in the English New Testament comes from the Latin form of the Greek name Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous), a rendition of the Hebrew Yeshua (ישוע), related to the name Joshua.[1][2] The name is thus related to the Hebrew verb root √yšʿ "rescue, deliver" and one of its noun forms, yešuaʿ "deliverance".[3] There have been various proposals as to how the literal etymological meaning of the name should be translated, including YHWH saves, (is) salvation, (is) a saving-cry, (is) a cry-for-saving, (is) a cry-for-help, (is) my help.[4][5][6][7][8]
- Brahma is Abraham the equivalent in Islam is Ibrahim
- Mariamma(n) is nothing but Mother Mary (the mother of Jesus Christ)
- Easan (Easwaran in Vedic etymology) is Easa in Islam (in Sufi, it is Sayee, the very same given to Shirdi Sayee Baba, who himself is known to have been found as 6 or 7 year old boy, whose ancestral hierarchies or birth origins are unknown as yet.
- Sayee or Sai (popularly known in India) - He seems to have been planted in India via Sufi or Persian or Abrahamic Religious hegemony by the British or Colonial Masters of India. If you dig deep into this, one will wonder who is the authentic here?
- Buddha was a Hindu who found his own way to eternal path via his learning from the Bodhi tree (Gaya or whatever).
- Jesus Christ was popularly ascribed to be a Buddhist Monarche en masse?
- Allah is the one and only God as depicted in the Phrase 'Allah Uh Akbar' (implying none above Him!!), as per Islamic Etymology or Quranic Verses.
- Guru Nanak, the author or prophecy named Guru Grand Saheb, was a Hindu converted to as a Sikh etymology.
