Why did Alexander go back to eygept after invading India?

When Alexander The Great was invading India, he came to the Indus river. He camped at the bank of the river. While strolling along the river he noticed a man lying naked in the sands and having a blissfull smile on his face. After getting back to his camp he sent his men to bring that naked fellow back. When Alexander's men asked the fellow to come, he refused even when he was told that Alexander The Great was calling him. Alexander himself went to see him. Alexander asked him, "Why don't you follow my instructions?" The man asked Alexander who he was . Alexander answered "I'm Alexander the great,the conquerer of more than half of the world". The man again asked, "What are you doing now?" Alexander answered Conquering the world". The man asked him what he what do after that. Alexander answered "I will relax". The man said "That is wat I'm doing now, relaxing". This struck Alexander's mind and he left his intentions to conquer the world.

Did Alexander the great discover India?

I am not quite sure exactly what is meant by that question but I believe it is a no. India was already discovered and known of. Alexander, after conquering Persia, set out to conquer India. He arrived in the plains of northwestern India, fought a brutal battle, and conquered that part of India. He planned on marching on to conquer more of India to the east, but his army refused to go on since they were fought year after year non-stop. So Alexander had to turn back and didn't go any further into India.
