Namaste Directives,
I think as Srivijaya that Buddha did not believe or teach of union with Brahm.
I am sure that Buddha taught, silently and with words, to reveal the swarupa. One does not unite with swarupa but one strips all rupa, to let the swarupa be. I am sure that Swarupa and Brahman are not two.
Swarupa does not come and descend but Soma (Lord) only flows and assumes swarupa. I believe of Vaisnava teaching that Buddha is Vishnu -- the all pervading, not fragmented in objects. And ironically,this is the teaching of Gaudapada -- a vedantist.
Om Namah Shivaya

That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.
