well from my reading of hindus and such writings its obvious they will worship anything, including their own idealized consciousness and even cows, before worshiping the living God who created them

Not all Hindus are nihilists like Shankara. Most are theistic and reject Shankara as a buddhist rip-off.

>From whatever new points of view the Buddha's system is tested with reference to its probability, it gives way on all sides, like the walls of a well, dug in sandy soil. It has, in fact, no foundation whatever to rest upon and hence the attempts to use it as a guide in the practical concerns of life are mere folly. Moreover Buddha, by propounding the three mutually contradicting systems, teaching respectively the reality of the external world, the reality of ideas only and general nothingness, has himself made it clear that he was a man given to make incoherent assertions or else that hatred of all beings induced him to propound absurd doctrines by accepting which they would become thoroughly confused…Buddha’s doctrine has to be entirely disregarded by all those who have a regard for their own happiness."

Sri Shankaracharya (pbuh) - Brahma Sutra Bhasya 2.2.32.

How will the buddhists ever recover after Shankara vanquished their sophistry from India?

Answer: by pretending they don't exist

Shankara influenced all subsequent Hinduism and he was himself a crypto-buddhist so the impact of Buddhism on Hinduism was quite large.
