Being a Hindu and practicing meditation, non violence, self-realization, believing in reincarnation, connected to nature, vegetarianism etc etc I see so much similarity with Jainism.

One rectification in your video needed .. jainism is not just 2500+ years old it's but rather it's eternal .. for instance Rishabhadeva (adinath) was the first tirthankar in jainism and so Mahavira was not the founder of jainism but just the 24th ford-maker of this cycle.

why people still say that jainism is 2500 years old while it has been a proven fact that jainism is at least 5000 years old. this is just ignorance.

Very similar to Buddhism. Can you explain what is the difference between Buddhism and Jainism?

Breathing is something everyone does and the mindset is something everyone has. What makes the difference between a Buddhist and a Christian is connection God. Prayer is not just a coping mechanism it is something which is supposed to draw us closer to God and create divine essence and nature within us as we pray. This is a Christian concept.

Great!
Good information...!!!

You are depicting Gautama the Buddha in your video, but not Mahaveera.
The Mahaveera is always shown in a naked position...
Please correct.
I am the follower of the Buddha... 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤

Mam Jainism is not just 2500+ years ago actually we have 24 gods and there is misinformation pn Google and in society that our Jainism is started by last(24th) god but it was started by 1st god Rishabnath who is 5000+ years ago....
