Yes, Hinduism and Buddhism are both religions.

Hinduism is the 3rd largest religion. It has a number of sects, similar to that of Christianity. It has a central deity called Brahman. He is seen as the eternal, unchanging, infinite, immanent, and transcendent reality which is the Divine Ground of all matter, energy, time, space, being, and everything beyond in this Universe. He has a number of aspects(similar to the trinity in Christianity) which are Brahma, Vishnu, and Siva. These are also called Avatars.

Buddhism is a non-theistic religion (we have no gods or immortal deities). We are the 4th largest religion. We believe that the Buddha discovered the truth of how things actually exist (became enlightened) and brought us teachings on how we can achieve the same state of enlightenment as he did. In this enlightened state suffering ceases and you become happier.

and more at ease in the world.
