1 answer:

8 0

Hinduism and Buddhism are firmly related. Buddha was a Hindu sovereign before establishing his own way to edification. For westerners, I'll frequently say that the connection between the two resembles the connection amongst Judaism and Christianity in some ways. Christianity was enlivened by the life of a Jew and Buddhism was roused by the life of a Hindu.
