Generally speaking the term Prophets may not be suitable for usage in the religions like Sikhism, Buddhism or Jainism because of what the term represent . But in Sikh usage the equivalent would be "Guru", which is the same as for Buddhism and Jainism. In Hinduism both Prophets and Guru are present.
For the same reason that Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Jainism, Hinduism, and every other religion out there is not the same as it was when it was first created. Religion, as an aspect of culture, is not static. It grows and changes along with the people who believe in it.
Jainism spread in India whereas Buddhism spread in other countries because Jain monks aren't allowed to travel overseas.
Hinduism is like Buddhism because Buddhism was actually born of Hinduism; they are yogas meaning they both practice an unity of god through the mind, body, and spirit. Jainism is very much similar to Buddhism . The concepts of karma, dharma & moksha are the same in both religions. Jains also do not believe in any one great god or creator . It says that good deeds and non-violence, truth are the key to happiness.
No. Hinduism is a religion while Tamil is a language
Though Hinduism and Jainism are not exactly the same - they both share some similarities.Both have the concept of idol worship.Both believe in Salvation.Both strongly believe in Ahimsa (Non-violence)
no, Hinduism is a religion, where as hindu is the person who follows Hinduism. it is like christian and christianity.
Jainism is an ancient religion which emphasies that every soul is divine and has the potential to become God (Tirthankar). They believe that one must go through many cycles of rebirth to shed their "karmas" and achieve Liberation. Once a divine soul has achieved Liberation, it lives in Moksha forever and experiences divine bliss, knowledge, and power. Jainism believes in many gods. Jains are also vegetarian, so they don't kill animals that could have a soul that is in the process of rebirth within it.Jainism is believed to be an eternal religion without any particular founder.Presently, Jainism is mostly practiced in India.Jainism (also called "Jain Dharma") Is a religion that arose on the Indian subcontinent.Founder of the religion was "Mahavira" (-"Great hero", real name Vardhamana), Jainism has got its name from the honorific of Mahavira, "Jina" (Sansk. "winner") and came into being at the same time as Buddhism. Jainism has got its origin in Brahmanism (a predecessor of Hinduism).Followers of Jainism are called "Jaina" (sing.).The main principles of Jainism are:Ahimsa; absolute nonviolence against every living creature.Aparigraha; independence of all useless possession.Satya; veracity.
Hinduism originated from god himself, so there is no founder of Hinduism. Hinduism is also called the religion of No man for the same reason.
advaitins,meaning,those who believe in NOT TWO or absolute entity, a part of hinduism,believe in this.

Both Hinduism AND Brahmanism are almost same. Hinduism is said to be found from Brahmanism.
