Good deeds (good karmas) lead to good karmic results (Sanskrit: karma-phala, the fruits of karma) which can include the circumstances of one's future reincarnation. In Buddhism and in Hinduism, a person's words, thoughts and actions form the basis for good and bad karma. Karma theory is commonly applied to the ethical realm of cause and effect in both Buddhism and Hinduism.
Karma is a word meaning action or activity and often implies its subsequent results (also called karma-phala, "the fruits of action"). Karma is a central part of Hindu and Buddhist teachings. The true "three knowledges" are said to be constituted by the process of achieving enlightenment, which is what the Buddha is said to have achieved in the three watches of the night of his enlightenment. For example, in the Samaññaphala Sutta, the Buddha is depicted presenting a notion of the "three knowledges" ( tevijja) – a term also used in the Vedic tradition to describe knowledge of the Vedas – as being not texts, but things that he had experienced. Many terms which Buddhism shares with Hinduism carry a different meaning in the Buddhist tradition. The Buddha used numerous religious terms which are also used in Hinduism, though he often used them in different and novel ways. Sanskrit terminology remains important for both Buddhists and Hindus. Indian Buddhists and Hindus also used the Sanskrit language as a religious and scholarly language. Examples include: dharma, karma, samadhi, samsara, dhyana, jñana, klesha, nirodha, samskāra, brahmin, brahmacarya, nirvana. purusha or pure awarenessīuddhism and Hinduism share numerous terms and ideas. Study, contemplation, investigation of reality ( dhammavicaya), vipassana. (which leads to prajñā), self study ( svadhyaya) Samadhi and the Four Dhyanas (meditations) The following chart compares these two basic religious systems: Aspects Yoga scholar Stephen Cope argues that Buddhism and Hindu traditions like Patanjali's Yoga (a system which is very influential on modern Hinduism) are strikingly similar in numerous key ways, having shared a long period of interchange up to about 500 CE.
Instead, Buddhism teaches not-self (anatman) and dependent arising as fundamental metaphysical theories. However, Buddhism notably rejects fundamental Hindu doctrines such as atman (substantial self or soul), Brahman (a universal eternal source of everything) and the existence of a creator God ( Ishvara). Both religions also share many deities (though their nature is understood differently), including Saraswati, Vishnu ( Upulvan), Mahakala, Indra, Ganesh and Brahma. īoth religions share belief in karma and rebirth (or reincarnation), they both accept the idea of spiritual liberation ( moksha, nirvana) from the cycle of reincarnation and they both promote similar religious practices (such as dhyana, samadhi, mantra, and devotion).
Both religions have many shared beliefs and practices, but also pronounced differences that have led to much debate. Hinduism developed out of the ancient Vedic religion, adopting numerous practices and ideas from other Indian traditions over time (in what has been called the Hindu synthesis). Buddhism arose in the eastern Ganges culture of northern India during the "second urbanisation" around 500 BCE. Hinduism and Buddhism have common origins in the culture of Ancient India.
