Answer:

Both Buddhism and Hinduism share a strong belief in reincarnation; an endless cycle of births and deaths that must be broken.

Attachment to people, places, things, or even ideas can lead to suffering; therefore, it’s best to practice non-attachment in the sense that you’re more anchored in your center than in outer circumstances.

Meditation is highly regarded in both religions, because they believe real truth and spirituality is inward, not outward.

Both believe that everything on the planet will eventually achieve enlightenment and liberation.

Both believe in Samsara and Karma

Both believe desire is the root cause of suffering

Both emphasize compassion and peace to all living beings (no violence to humans and animals)

Both believe in several heavens and hells (layers of heavens and hells)

Both religions started in India

Both believe in the spiritual practices of meditation, concentration, and cultivation of certain states of mind.
