almost 60% of delhi is hindu. Rest is muslim & other Religion.
It is the other way around. Buddhism was started by a born Hindu prince. Many Gods and Goddesses from Hinduism are used in Buddhism.
No. It was the other way around. Buddha was Hindu. Hinduism came before Buddhism.
It differs in a way
Hinduism is a tolerant way of life that believes in dignity and welfare of humans. Hinduism has evolved through the Vedic ages and the root of many divergent religions like Jainism,Buddhism,Sikkism etc.
Nancy Wilson Ross has written: 'Buddhism : a way of life and thought' -- subject(s): Buddhism 'Hinduism, Buddhism, Zen' -- subject(s): Art, Buddhist, Art, Hindu, Buddhism, Buddhist Art, Hindu Art, Hinduism
Well in class I learns that Buddhism and Hinduism both believe in reincarnation and they both believe in dharma and they also believe in karma,samsara,and moksha
No,Buddhism is a way of life. It shows how to end sufferings by ourselves.It answers to all questions of life.It is not a religion to believe,it is a path to follow.Buddhism does not force any thing. It shows,if you do this,this happens.It is a science
No. Hinduism believes that life is a great suffering is connected to one's Karma or Fate while Buddhism believes that a person's mind and body are connected so if a person follows the 8 fold path of Tathagata he/she will have no suffering at all. Life is a bliss in buddhism. Suffering occurs only when you fall out of the 8 fold path.
Buddhism is a part of Hinduism in the sense that Christianity is a part of Judaism. "Buddha", or, Prince Siddhartha Gauthama was of the Sakya clan, a Hindu clan in present day Nepal. He was raised an orthodox Hindu and eventually went off to pursue enlightenment which was not an unusual option of that era for a man of his station and religion. One of the problems that Buddha had with Hinduism was the caste system and later when he was teaching he stressed the equality of human beings from a spiritual or karmic perspective. Buddha was a Hindu reformer and taught essentially Hindu teachings and practices. Much of what is called Buddhist practice is common to Hinduism. In this way Hinduism and Buddhism are related in much the same way that Judaism and Christianity are related, Christ being a Jew reformer. But no, to specifically answer the question: Buddhism is not formally a "part" of Hinduism. Then again, there is no such thing as "Buddhism" outside of the west any more than there is a such thing as Christism. In "Buddhist" countries the practice is referred to as "Dharma".
Buddha was a Hindu in the same way that Jesus was a Jew
India introduced China to Hinduism and Catholicism.
Hinduism and Buddhism both focus on attaining Moksha (liberation) or nirvana and force Non violence upon followers. they both Believe that there is only one true god and only way to achieve him is through meditation.
