Best Answer

Buddhism began in India as a part of Hinduism in about the 6th century b.c.. For many centuries Buddhism was a movement within Hinduism. When Buddhist missionaries went to the surrounding areas they did not take Hinduism with them. In India the two movements gradually separated. The separation began about the third century a.d. and was complete about the 9th century.
