Jain and Buddhist concept of Ahimsa (or non-violence) had actually a great effect on Hinduism.

Many Jains and Buddhists condemned caste-system, which is believed by some historians to have prevailed in the society at that time.

Jain and Buddhist doctrine of Karma, essentially shaped the Hindu belief of death and rebirth.
