Did Buddhism Judaism and Sikhism grow out of Hinduism?
Jewish answer:I'll let the others speak for themselves. As for Judaism, it did not grow out of Hinduism. The two religions were geographically very far apart and had little or no contact. Also, Judaism is completely different from Hinduism.Concerning Buddhism and Sikhism:Both Buddhism and Sikhism are often considered Dharmic Faiths, along with Hinduism, as opposed to Abrahamic Faiths because they deal with a different pantheon and emphasis of worship than do the Abrahamic Faiths. As a result, unlike the Abrahamic Faiths which seem to build on one another (i.e. Judaism is Abrahamic 1.0, Christianity is Abrahamic 2.0, and Islam is Abrahamic 3.0), the Dharmic faiths are based on analyses and questions of each other.The Buddha (Siddharta Gautama) and the First Sikh Guru (Nanak) were both born as Hindus, but they questioned their upbringings and meditated to achieve forms of enlightenment. For the Buddha, he was to find that the world is imperfect and unsatisfactory and therefore must be shed to achieve enlightenment. This is epitomized by his famous quote: "All life is suffering." For the Guru Nanak it was the revelation that all humans were of the same spiritual nature regardless of what faith they followed. This is epitomized by his famous quote: "There is no Hindu; there is no Muslim."Buddhism and Sikhism did not carry with them the Hindu holy texts, like the Vedas or the Upanishads. They also were far more concentrated on meditation and mysticism than Hinduism which is more about spiritual rites. So, while it is fair to say that they owe Hinduism for some theological concepts and ideals, they did not directly succeed or "grow out of" Hinduism.
