Hinduism and Buddhism Explained | What is the difference between Hinduism and Buddhism?

In this video we compare 5 characteristics between the 3rd and 4th largest religions in the world, Hinduism and Buddhism.

Hinduism is considered one of the oldest religions in the world, with roots dating back over 4,000 years. It is a complex and diverse religious tradition that evolved over time in the Indian subcontinent. Hinduism does not have a single founder but emerged from the religious and cultural practices of ancient India.

Buddhism was founded in the 5th century BCE by Siddhartha Gautama, also known as the Buddha. Siddhartha was a prince who renounced his luxurious life to seek enlightenment. After attaining enlightenment, he taught his insights and principles, forming the foundation of Buddhism.

I am seeing some people writing that Sanatan dharma (Hinduism) has CASTE SYSTEM which is wrong Hinduism has Varna system which based on karma but it became caste system which was based upon HINDU TEXT PROMOTES INEQUALITY AMONG PEOPLE'S FAULT

[YogiTheBear-slgu]

It was very nice, I can't wait to learn more about Hinduism!!...

[Mr.CarryM]

I, am froudfull but I am Hindu from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

[soulman.]

As a once wester Christian I have taking something from both without knowing about them. One God, service to others, meditation, KARMA, reincarnation and so on. I have my own path. I believe to follow any religion is restrictive.

So Buddha learned about other religions first, maybe Hinduism too since it's oldest religion in the world, before he realized they were wrong path (not leading to nirvana, enlightenment, peaceful lasting state), so he went out on his own; and after 6 long years of starving and hunger (almost killed himself), he followed the middle path, middle way which eventually led him to enlightment and of course nirvana after he passed, forever left earth. No one no being is quite like Buddha 😊

3:18 "buddhists don't have a caste system" well look into Sri Lanka they did have(Govigamas etc.) and that's considered the "most buddhist" country

[Parallax-ecik]

I'm having a test on this tomorrow morning. Thanks.

[adityaeditzz]

Sir, I have a question, is the Japanese religion Shintoism also a part of Hinduism because Shinto Gods are very similar to Hindu Gods?

[choephak]

Hinduism is totally different from Buddhism. Hinduism has no particular one origin. There are many devas in Hindu. Where as Buddhism emerged only from Gautama Buddha thats why its called Buddhism.

Some info guys..

SANATAN DHARMA (Hinduism) is a pluralistic religion and a way of life which accepts one god ( formless, cannot be described) with many forms ( shiva, vishnu, brahma,shakti etc ) and god also decended on earth (ram and krishna) to give us the message and importance of and agnostics can also practice the religion as we have many philosophies what matters and unites every sect of hinduism is *that we should follow our dharma
*Respect every scripture and vedas are most divine scripture of hindus....
Many more things like dualism, non dualism, nature worship

I wouldn't say that meditation is central to Buddhism, but just one integrated part of the Eightfold Path. Most Buddhists worldwide don't even have a meditation practice. It's something that became amplified to the point of being synonymous with Buddhism only when Zen, which _is_ heavily focused on meditation, came to the West, and people took Zen to be what _all_ Buddhism looks like.

[krisc]

Buddhism is to ascetic for most ppl, thats also why Indian Kings and the masses chose Hinduism with it's devotional path, in favor of Buddhism. Also Hindu concepts and practises are increasing in the West whereas ppl in the West only have icon of Buddha at home but dont really practise the religion.

[jaypeve]

Good video, do one on Unitarian Universalist, Baha’i, Zen, Confucianism, Tao, Shinto, Jewish religion, Jainism, Christadelphians, Gnostics

[summa]

Wow, you are drawing a mosque instead of temple. And Indian map is not a correct one

[aryaahpatel]

The four Dharmic religions (Hindu-Buddhist-Jain-Sikhism) native to the land of Bharat share ideas of Karma, Dharma, Samsara, Moksha, and Yoga.

These religions share many similarities in core beliefs, modes of worship, and associated practices with 'Om' being the highest energy source. Ek Omkar.
In Buddhism Dhamma is the Prakrit word for the Sanskrit word Dharma and in Jainism, the word "Dharma" is termed as 'dharmastikaay' and In Sikhism called 'Dharman'.

Respect all the 4 🙏

It’s important to note that Buddhism is extremely diverse. There is a multitude of different schools/traditions of Buddhism present today. It has an exceptional ability to be accepted and transformed by each new culture it encounters. That’s why there’s so many “Flavors” of Buddhism so if you’re interested do some research and find a tradition that resonates most with you.

[vondoromal]

Very interesting! A conversation starter at the least..

[elesvazul]

Basically Buddhism is Hinduism without the Vedas. I chant Hindu and Buddhist mantras often. They both help me a lot! Namaste 🙏
