Hinduism vs Buddhism - The Core Differences Simply Explained By A Buddhist Monk

As we all know, caste system in Hinduism is birth based and not based on the profession acquired by the individual, that's not the case in Buddhism. *Apastamba Dharma Shastra 1.1.1.4-5* [There are] four castes Brahmana, Kshatriyas, Vaishya, and Shudra. Among these, each preceding (caste) is superior by birth to the one following.

I'm an American who was raised Christian. There is much to cherish about that faith. Yet it was the words of the Buddha that truly awakened my mind. Buddhism has been the guiding light in my life for nearly 20 years. All faiths offer wisdom but Buddhism is the only one that transcends attachment, which truly is the ultimate source of suffering. I find immeasurable wisdom in the suttas and in the zen traditiom. How blessed I know the words of the Tathāgata who lived so far away so long ago. ☸️🧘‍♂️

"Hinduism" is a western label as it was applied by people entering the Indian sub-continent via the INDUS Valley to denote a philosophy practiced by those residing in the Indus region, whereas the ethos was prevalent all over the sub-continent and in other parts of the world in different shapes and forms. A more accepted name is "Sanatana Dharma" meaning "eternal philosophy" and this name feels more apt because it transcends time, space/geography. A good read is "PERENNIAL PHILOSOPHY" by the British philosopher Aldous Huxley which finds a common thread among all of the religions of the world. The concept of the divine in Sanatana philosophy is like the number 0 manifesting itself as infinite numbers (as positive & negative, creation & destruction - so called "good" and "evil", as things/attributes, and their opposites - matter, anti-matter etc.), and remaining in an unperturbed, non-judgmental equilibrium state (moksha). Like Einstein's equation E = M (divine energy manifesting as all that is - "Yahweh" in Aramaic/Hebrew means "I am" or "I am that which is", and in Sanskrit, "Tat Tvam Asi" means "Thou Art That"). Baruch Spinoza's interpretation of Judaism is similar to Sanatana philosophy. An underlying homogeneous consciousness/energy field manifested as the heterogeneous/diverse cosmos that is observed. making it simultaneously monotheistic and polytheistic. Zero is both NOTHING & EVERYTHING simultaneously, as it encompasses infinity. It's not an absolute/true void or nothingness. By manifesting as infinity it ceases to be a true void and hence acquires the dual properties (manifest (as numbers), unmanifest (as zero) etc.). Like in the poem IF by Rudyard Kipling, the divine transcends the notions of good, evil, pleasure, pain, triumph, disaster, by manifesting as all outcomes and experiencing all of these - experiencing the full gamut of expressions associated with existence. It is both the hunter and the hunted, both the victor and the vanquished, and therefore is able to remain unperturbed, in a non-judgmental state. Both sides of the equation (E = M) are equally valid - one is not lesser than the other and not to be escaped, i.e. everyone and everything is enlightened along all points in time. There is no enlightenment to chase in some future state and there's no permanent escape into some oblivious nothingness (there's always re-emergence). The grass always appears to be greener on the other side. Existing in the Relative, we think of returning to the Absolute, while the Absolute continuously manifests as the Relative. Carl Sagan said "we are a way for the cosmos to know itself".

​@@joea6234Buddha like Jesus? Really. Please read and talk to someone with some experience. Jesus was a person who claimed to be the Prophetic King's of the Jewish nation. The entire Old Testament is adopted from the Torah. The Jews however rejected his claim and crucified him. Later Jesus's cult escaped Judea and went to Byzantium where they compiled their book. Its no surprise that the first Bible is in Greek. Also the New Testament is a compilation of the teachings of the apostles written down much after Jesus's death. Finally the modern Christian sects are heavily reliant upon the directive agreed upon by the Creed of Nicea. Buddhism on the other hand is the exposition of a non-vedic Indian faith tradition. Sakhyamuni Gautama is the foremost individual in this tradition.

​@@adityanastik8098No, it is not! It is the greatest mess up in Indian history! And of course when the country was reeling in poverty and slavery for several centuries, those who were in an advantageous position in terms of intellectuality, wealth, and power used it to their advantage. Add to it the invaders, and politicians till date. At the time when people were confused bout their karma and role in the society. Shri krishn created the Varna system in which occupations are divided into four groups Brahmans: those who live by begging for food for their stomachs. They are responsible for teaching and maintaining sacred knowledge. They play a crucial role in performing religious rituals, preserving and transmitting knowledge, and providing spiritual guidance to society. Kshatriya: Kshatriyas are the warrior or military caste in Hindu society, traditionally responsible for protecting the country and its people. Their role historically included governing and administering the state, defending the kingdom, and upholding justice and righteousness. Vaishya: In the Varna system, Vaishyas are the third varna, traditionally associated with commerce, agriculture, and trade. Their role includes business, agriculture, and trading goods. They are considered the merchant and artisan class, responsible for economic activities in society. Shudras: In the Varna system, Shudras are the fourth varna, traditionally associated with service and labor. Their role is to serve the other three varnas-Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and Vaishyas-by performing various tasks necessary for society, such as manual labor, agriculture, and other service-oriented work. This is the divine caste system. Krishna states in the Bhagavad-gita that these divisions are based on one's qualities and activities. He does not state that they are based on birth, as in the demoniac caste System. In the divine caste system everyone is encouraged, trained, and facilitated, in whatever occupation best suits their nature. In this way there is full employment in the society. There are no frustrated, unemployed people. Everyone is employed in an occupation which is according to their nature.Thus everyone is encouraged and enthused. The modern day demoniac caste system, which is still going on today in India, is based on one's birth. One is forced into a certain caste by his birth. This exploitative system was introduced by the unqualified sons of those who were actually qualified brahmanas to forcefully make themselves the leaders of the society.A real brahmana is someone who knows the Absolute Truth and freely distributes it to everyone to elevate them also to the position of brahmana. Please clear your confusion about this and in Hinduism we are taught that every person and animals and whoever have lives are one by the same source and energy. That's why we sanatanis are vegetarian amd what about plants? We are taught that if we have to cut a tree we have to ask for forgiveness from that tree and promise that ' I will plant 5 of your same kind' and not to cause harm to any anyone because we are part of this nature and it will make us pay for it.

Dimensions of Time and Space as discussed in Indian Vedism were converted into persons called Devtas in Hinduism. Brahma Vishnu Mahesh in Vedism are dimensions of Time and Space, relating to Creativity of Mind Vishnu is energy of Universe holding matter together. Mahesh is energy causing electronic motion of electrons resulting in chemical reactions that break down molecules into smaller one's and Brahma Force rejoins these molecules to re create new molecules. Conscious in Vedism is omnipresent. The President of each function of Universe managing these reactions are personal devtas of that dimensions and are like Factory managers In Vedism the Force is worshipped In Hinduism the Managers controlling these forces are worshipped, that's major difference.

And they did this with the help of India (which is the only hindu majority country on this planet). Do you know why ? Because Sinhalese resembles Sanskrit more than Tamil, and Indian hindus consider Buddhists in Srilanka as descendents of Ram, and Hindus in Srilanka as descendents of Raavan. The buddhist monks in Srilanka have destroyed countless Shiva and Karthikeya temples in Srilanka. Ultimately everything boils down to language and ethnicity. Religion is just a superficial coating.

Buddha studied Sankhya Philosophy from Kapila Muni, one of Ancient Indian Schools of philosophy which is basically Upanishad's teaching of Sanatan philosophy. Vajrayana came much later when it got heavily influenced by Tantric philosophy of Sanatan philosophy & idol worship which is good in some sense. Initially I used to be against Idol worship, but later understood why it is important, Upnishad philosophy which talks about the oneness of God - the dance of a common vibrating energy among all animate & inanimate being while Vedantic philosophy stresses Idols as personification of Nature forces. It is the same part of one thing, while not everybody could easily understand Upnishad philosophy which is highly philosophical & complex, if common people will not understand the philosophy behind it their mind will become rigid that's why personification of Nature forces becomes necessary. Rituals, some bad & some good comes & go according to the local culture & time because Santana philosophy doesn't destroy the local culture & sentiments of people it accommodates them and reforms it with slow ingress of Upnishad philosophy.

[@vajrainsights]

I think the difference he speaks of is the motivation being a CORE teaching in Buddhism that is incorporated into EVERY practice, Sadhana, or yoga that we do. It’s not to say that Hinduism isn’t a compassionate path - we all know it is. In buddhism however, the distinction is that it is a well known view that there is no true “practice” on the Buddhist path without first establishing the motivation of whatever act, or prayer also benefitting all sentient beings. It’s a subtle difference, but it trains the mind to move beyond self-centered liberations and to completely lose one’s “self” in the liberation of others until the self is no more and compassionate/enlightened service is all that is left. This would explain why there are no enlightened persons, only enlightened activity. Because an enlightened being is just a vessel for enlightened activity, which ultimately aims to serve the whole. This is how I understand it to be based on my learnings as a practitioner.

Dictators only care about themselves - all they care about is whether you believe & support them, be loyal only to them? If you do, you get the good life! If you don't, you might get tortured, raped or even killed! And we see that these are their Gods! Putin is their God! Fools think all they have to do is believe, sing his praises, be loyal to him and him only and this Putin God will nicely reward them with eternal pleasures of the flesh! Heaven is Fools Gold! And that is the counter to such foolishness! Reincarnation says there is only One World! This one! Thinking if we kiss this butt or that, we will be rewarded with eternal pleasures of the flesh is crazy! It won't work! These people who run after Heaven will end up as Dogs or other lower life forms, like Trees As Dogs they will get the good life - free food, shelter, protection and care - no work, no worries!

Mahayana Buddhism is based on Advaita Vedanta philosophy of Hinduism. While Mahayana Buddhism teachings center on the idea of the bodhisattva, an enlightened being who seeks to help others attain enlightenment. Advaita Vedanta, on the other hand, emphasizes the non-dual nature of reality, the goal of Advaita Vedanta is to realize one's identity with Brahman through a process of self-inquiry and meditation. I am a Vipassana Meditation student, and have also learnt the teaching of Lord Buddha through excerpts of the Tipitaka. Based on what I am able to deduce the observation I have mentioned. Upanishads also mostly emphasize on Enlightenment, "तत त्वम असि। ", "अप दीपो भव। " and "अहं ब्रह्मासमी। " Convey the same message.

Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism) and Buddha’s teachings (Buddhism) share some common roots but diverge significantly in their philosophies, practices, and ultimate goals. Below is a comparison of the two: 1. Foundational Beliefs • Sanatana Dharma (Hinduism): • “Sanatana Dharma” means “eternal duty” and refers to the broader framework of Hindu philosophy and practice. It emphasizes the authority of the Vedas, the eternal nature of the soul (Atman), and its unity with the universal spirit (Brahman). • It includes diverse schools of thought, from monism (Advaita) to theism (worship of gods like Vishnu, Shiva, or Devi). • Core concepts include dharma (duty/righteousness), karma (action and its consequences), moksha (liberation), and bhakti (devotion). • Buddhism (Buddha’s Teachings): • Buddhism rejects the authority of the Vedas and focuses on the Buddha’s teachings, particularly the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. • It denies the existence of an eternal soul (Atman) and instead teaches the concept of anatman (no-self). • The ultimate goal is nirvana, a state of liberation from suffering and the cycle of rebirth (samsara). 2. Concept of God • Sanatana Dharma: • The idea of God varies widely. It can be monotheistic (belief in one God), polytheistic (many gods), or even non-theistic (Advaita Vedanta’s Brahman is impersonal). • Gods like Vishnu, Shiva, and Brahma are central in many traditions. They are seen as creators, sustainers, and destroyers of the universe. • Buddhism: • Buddhism does not rely on a creator god. While gods (devas) exist in Buddhist cosmology, they are seen as impermanent beings within samsara, subject to karma and rebirth. • The focus is on self-effort and wisdom rather than divine intervention. 3. Karma and Rebirth • Sanatana Dharma: • Karma determines one’s future births and experiences. Liberation (moksha) is achieved by realizing the unity of Atman and Brahman, transcending karma. • Buddhism: • Karma also governs rebirth, but there is no eternal soul being reborn-what continues is a process of causes and conditions. • Liberation (nirvana) is attained by extinguishing desire, ignorance, and attachment, which fuel the cycle of rebirth. 4. Path to Liberation • Sanatana Dharma: • Liberation can be achieved through various paths: • Jnana Yoga (knowledge and wisdom), • Bhakti Yoga (devotion to a deity), • Karma Yoga (selfless action), • Raja Yoga (meditative practices). • Rituals, worship (puja), and adherence to one’s dharma play important roles. • Buddhism: • The path to liberation is the Noble Eightfold Path, which includes ethical conduct (sila), mental discipline (samadhi), and wisdom (prajna). • It emphasizes meditation, mindfulness, and insight rather than rituals or worship. 5. View on the Self • Sanatana Dharma: • The self (Atman) is eternal and ultimately identical with Brahman, the universal reality. Realizing this unity is the key to liberation. • Buddhism: • There is no eternal self (anatman). The belief in a permanent self is seen as a source of suffering. Understanding the impermanence and interdependence of all things leads to liberation. 6. Rituals and Practices • Sanatana Dharma: • Rituals, temple worship, festivals, and sacrifices (yajnas) are central. The Vedas and other scriptures prescribe detailed rites for various stages of life. • Worship often involves devotion to personal deities (e.g., Krishna, Shiva). • Buddhism: • Early Buddhism avoided elaborate rituals and focused on meditation, mindfulness, and ethical living. • Later forms (e.g., Mahayana and Vajrayana) incorporated more ritualistic elements, but these are seen as skillful means rather than ends in themselves. 7. Scriptures • Sanatana Dharma: • Foundational texts include the Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, and Puranas. • Buddhism: • Buddhist scriptures include the Tripitaka (Pali Canon), Mahayana sutras (e.g., the Heart Sutra), and Vajrayana texts. Key Similarities: 1. Both acknowledge karma and rebirth. 2. Both aim to transcend suffering and the cycle of samsara. 3. Both traditions emphasize meditation and ethical living. Key Differences: 1. Hinduism accepts an eternal soul (Atman) and a divine essence (Brahman), while Buddhism denies the existence of a permanent self (anatman) or a creator god. 2. Hinduism often relies on devotion to deities, whereas Buddhism emphasizes self-reliance and insight. 3. The ultimate goals differ: moksha (union with Brahman) in Hinduism versus nirvana (freedom from samsara) in Buddhism. Both systems offer profound spiritual insights, but they cater to different metaphysical perspectives and paths to liberation.

@@swagsuga2081 I have been to 10-15 Buddhist monastery and bihar, I haven't seen any single without Buddha idol and people prayed infront of the idol just like Hindus do infront of God. I don't know where is your reference and what kinda buddhism you are referring to.

[@Mr.Silverclone]

@@swagsuga2081 dear brother you known what, despite of being the birth place of Siddharth Gautam , Buddhism could not grown in Bharat coz it's only limited to one darshan called SAMKHYA which is only one among the six darshan ..and also it opposed ved upashana like agnihotra , yagna, yajana etc. That's why it went to the catagory of Nastik vad like it's preceding Jainism and charbak catagory.. But if you want to know what is sanatan Hinduism in real essence, it's only and only ADVAITA starting from lord Narayana or you may say Sadashiv, propagated by Sri Adi Shankaracharya.. Trust me bro, I've spent 3 years to understand the real scriptures which is called prasthanatraya consisting of UPANISHADS, different types of Gitas ( starting from Iswara gita, Shiv gita, yam gita, sri Ram gita, Ashtavakra gita, Avdhoot gita to bhagwat gita and Ribhu gita) and Finally the BRAHMASUTRA.. Believe me brother,You will found Buddhism sounds great but not even correct upto mark in front of our vaidik sanatan dharm..

[@Mr.Silverclone]

@@ranabanik1354Dear brother, many of Hindus think that Buddhism is a part of Hinduism. Although It's correct but it's not a part of vaidik sanatan dharma.. it's one among the 3 Nastik vad ( charbak, Jainism, Buddhism) people just have wrong concept in their mind like they think we Hindus are polytheist..🤣🤣

I don’t know but everything he said is applied to Hinduism as well. In my opinion there is no difference between these two religions. As buddhism is branch of Hinduism may be that’s why.

[@zarnavanrajsinhchavda6983]

Exactly what I was thinking, this is exactly ditto what Sanatan Dharm is about, these were rather the similarities than differences.

[@copelofficial493]

May be hinduism is a brach of buddhism. Shankracharay and ramanajunacharay spread hinduism after buddhism was at its peak.

Hinduism or sanatan dharma in larger terms contains many schools of thought . It is simple yet the most complicated one ,for even sanatanis . Everything that Buddhism incorporate belongs to sanatan (eternity). There are no differences between the two . How can be ? When the goal or destiny is same(samsara or brahman ) and the beginning is same(human form) , does path matters? Both are beutiful , and pure , only if one can understand them . Om namo budhhay , jay mahakal

[@tenzinchoekey1100]

[@kalyantpv]

Exactly. The term moksha wasn't coined post Buddhism. If these pseudo intellectuals are right, why did the term even exist in Much older scriptures in Sanskrit?

[@shyam_10836]

Detachment from Anatma ( Mind Maya Samsara) takes closer to Atma (Reality, Liberation everlasting happiness,Truth). In Bhagavad-Gita Krishna said दुःखालयम अशाश्वतम ( Full of Suffering and Impermanent) . Buddha's teachings are fragment of Bhagavad-Gita. Generally People's idea of Hinduism is Idolatry, chanting Mantra's, Yagya, Pooja etc. This is Hinduism but core of Hinduism is linking individual consciousness with universal consciousness aka Yoga.

[@napoleonaugustecesarbonapa3926]

To be fair, if you consider Buddha as an avatar of Maha Vishnu, it's logical that the core teaching are the same. I don't know how far is your knowledge of Buddhism is, but they are some sutras, that are praising hindu gods like in the Nilakhanta dharani. In reality, Buddhism is Advaita Vedanta but axed more about meditation.

After growing up a Hindu and very confused about religion, I chose to follow Buddhism for its basic philosophical teachings and practises that are doable with simple language across all humankind so being a lazy agnostic practitioner alongside yoga at times.

Thanks to you both. It would be great if you can cover frameworks such as The Dependant Origination, the Three Marks of Existence, and The Four Noble Truths. The real crux of Buddha's teaching comes out then. Appreciate if you can try some interviews on these lines. In terms of practice, it is Satipatthana Sutta that systematically captures all these aspects. The beauty of Buddha's teaching is that it doesn't require the need for an agent/self. It's just those conditioned, selfless phenomenon raising and falling all the time. Essentially that's the nature of reality. BeerBiceps brother - really appreciate your efforts in bringing out several disciplines under spirituality. Wish you all the best.
