No. Hinduism believes that life is a great suffering is connected to one's Karma or Fate while Buddhism believes that a person's mind and body are connected so if a person follows the 8 fold path of Tathagata he/she will have no suffering at all. Life is a bliss in buddhism. Suffering occurs only when you fall out of the 8 fold path.

Buddhism believes in the middle way. Before Lord Buddha attained Buddhahood (supreme enlightenment) He was a prince, where life was in total pleasure. He left this endless joy-filled life (as a prince) to seek the meaning of suffering of mankind. For 6 years He underwent physical and mental torture to seek answer of human suffering. In the end He realise that the answer was not at both end of the extreme; one end was the fun-filled life as a prince and the other extreme was the self inflicted physical and mental torture.

The bottom line of His Teaching is that we must not be attach to the near and dear as well as we must not reject the far and the dejected; we must be equal and treat everyone as one.

What are the special events in Hinduism?
Hinduism can be described to have passed through three phases, which are as follows: 1) There was a time when there was no trinity, there was no Vishnu or Siva. The God of the religion was called Brahman. Devas filled up anciliary positions in the hierarchy. 2) This was the time when the Saptarshis took over the religion - trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Siva took shape. This was the period when Vedas were extensively used by Saptarshis to control the religion. A deity could be considered as a Hindu God only and only if he is part of the Vedas. If a new tribe entered into India and if they wanted their God to be considered as Vedic, they had to declare their God as the visual manifestation of one of the gods mentioned in the Vedas. This phase of Hinduism died with the drought of 2200 BC, when Buddhism took over India and when Hinduism was almost wiped out. 3) This phase, which is the current phase, started with decline of Buddhism and rejuvenation of Hinduism. In this phase, there are no Saptarshis and Vedas do not have any control. A God can be considered as a Hindu God even if he is not Vedic. Take the case of 19th century saint Sai Baba who has a large number of tempes all over India today. He has nothing to do with Vedas, yet he is considered as a Hindu God. For more on Hinduism: #1
