Following are some of the differences we can see in the principles and practice of these two religions:
Buddhism is a monotheistic religion, often described as more like a philosophy than a religious faith. There are no gods in Buddhism. Hinduism is a polytheistic religion in which there are multiple gods.
The primary one is that Buddhists, while mostly following Hindu rules of conduct, read and study the transcribed speeches made by Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha), and do not worship any of the Hindu gods. As such, Buddhism is far more compatible with other religions, and is not strictly considered to be a religion.
1. Hindu teachings are mainly based on how to divide the people. Such as Caste System where you are a Brahmin, Kshetriya, Vaishas and Sudras. There is still one caste that is called out-caste. And they are the ab-origins of India. They are called scheduled castes by the Government. For hundreds of years, they are ones who became converted into Buddhism, Christianity and Islam.
2. Buddhism combines the whole of Asia except India into one religious group. No distinction and no discrimination.
3. That's the basic difference
At this point of time, the stark difference between Hinduism and Buddhism is the confusion in Buddhism that there is no God, that there is no Soul, and this is only a confusion. In reality, the original difference between what the Buddha believed in, the founder of Buddhism, and Hinduism was that the Buddha did not believe in the caste system, he did not believe in the rituals and superstitions of Hinduism. He believed in going on a quest, going within and self-realization. He did not accept or deny God, because at that point of time in Hinduism, God was a statue and a saint and Buddha disagreed with that. Therefore, Buddhism and Hinduism are very similar in their roots. Both believe in Karma, both believe in rebirth, both believe in living a life as per Dharma. The difference is only in perspective.
Hindus believe in literal reincarnation, whereas Buddhists do not.
