Answer:

believe that Hinduism and Buddhism are more different than they are similar. Although they both started in ancient India, Buddhism has a clear founder, the Buddha, while Hinduism does not. The two religions also differ in their manner of worship: Hinduism is a polytheistic religion, while Buddhism does not involve worship of a deity. One small similarity between the two religions is the shared belief in reincarnation. Otherwise, the two religions are quite different.

Answer:

Buddhism and Hinduism agree on karma, dharma, moksha and reincarnation. They are different in that Buddhism rejects the priests of Hinduism, the formal rituals, and the caste system. Buddha urged people to seek enlightenment through meditation
