You Chinese are disgusting can't even accept basic , all dharmic religions are based on the similar core principles. Just like all Abrahamic religions are based on similar principles.

Similarities
Basic vocabularyEdit
The Buddha approved many of the terms already used in philosophical discussions of his era; however, many of these terms carry a different meaning in the Buddhist tradition. 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 (these are not noble truths[
clarification needed]).
[15] 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.
[16]
KarmaEdit
Karma (
Sanskrit: कर्म from the root kṛ, "to do") is a word meaning
action or
activity and often implies its subsequent
results (also called karma-phala, "the fruits of action"). It is commonly understood as a term to denote the entire cycle of
cause and effect as described in the philosophies of a number of cosmologies, including those of Buddhism and Hinduism.
Karma is a central part of Buddhist teachings. In Buddha's teaching, karma is a direct intentional
[17] result of a person's word, thought and/or action in life. In pre-Buddhist Vedic culture, karma has to do with whether or not the ritualistic actions are correctly performed. Little emphasis is placed on moral conduct in the early Vedic conception.[
neutrality is disputed] In Buddhism, by contrast, a person's words, thoughts and/or actions form the basis for good and bad karma:
sila (moral conduct) goes hand in hand with the development of meditation and wisdom. Buddhist teachings carry a markedly different meaning from pre-Buddhist conceptions of karma.
[18]
DharmaEdit
Dharma (
Sanskrit,
Devanagari: धर्म or
PāliDhamma, Devanagari: धम्म) means
Natural Law,
Reality or
Duty, and with respect to its significance for
spirituality and
religion might be considered
the Way of the Higher Truths. A Hindu appellation for
Hinduism itself is
Sanātana Dharma, which translates as "the eternal dharma." Similarly,
Buddhadharma is an appellation for
Buddhism. The general concept of dharma forms a basis for philosophies, beliefs and practices originating in
India. The four main ones are
Hinduism,
Buddhism,
Jainism (Jaina Dharma), and
Sikhism (Sikha Dharma), all of whom retain the centrality of dharma in their teachings. In these traditions, beings that live in harmony with dharma proceed more quickly toward, according to the tradition,
Dharma Yukam,
Moksha, or
Nirvana (personal liberation). Dharma can refer generally to religious
duty, and also mean social order, right conduct, or simply virtue.
BuddhaEdit
The term "Buddha" too has appeared in Hindu scriptures before the birth of
Gautama Buddha. In the
Vayu Purana,
sage Dakshacalls Lord Shiva as Buddha.
[19]
Similar symbolismEdit
- Mudra: This is a symbolic hand-gesture expressing an emotion. Images of the Buddha almost always depict him performing some mudra.
- Dharma Chakra: The Dharma Chakra, which appears on the national flag of India and the flag of the Thai royal family, is a Buddhist symbol that is used by members of both religions.
- Rudraksha: These are beads that devotees, usually monks, use for praying.
- Tilak: Many Hindu devotees mark their heads with a tilak, which is interpreted as a third eye. A similar mark is one of the characteristic physical characteristics of the Buddha.
- Swastika and Sauwastika: both are sacred symbols. It can be either clockwise or counter-clockwise and both are seen in Hinduism and Buddhism. The Buddha is sometimes depicted with a sauwastika on his chest or the palms of his hands.[20]
Similar practicesEdit
MantraEdit
In
Tibet, many
Buddhists carve mantras into rocks as a form of
devotion.
A
mantra (मन्त्र) is a
religious syllable or
poem, typically from the
Sanskrit language. Their use varies according to the school and philosophy associated with the mantra. They are primarily used as
spiritual conduits, words or vibrations that instill one-pointed
concentration in the devotee. Other purposes have included religious ceremonies to accumulate wealth, avoid danger, or eliminate enemies. Mantras existed in the
historical Vedic religion,
Zoroastrianism[21] and the Shramanic traditions, and thus they remain important in Buddhism and
Jainism as well as other faiths of Indian origin such as
Sikhism.
YogaEdit
practice of
Yoga is intimately connected to the religious beliefs and practices of both Hinduism and Buddhism.
[22] However, there are distinct variations in the usage of yoga terminology in the two religions.
In Hinduism, the term "Yoga" commonly refers to the eight limbs of yoga as defined in the
Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, written some time after 100 BCE, and means "yoke", with the idea that one's individual
atman, or soul, would yoke or bind with the monistic entity that underlies everything (
brahman). Yoga in Hinduism also known as being 'complex', based on yoking (integrating). Yoga defines a specific process, it has an emphasis on knowledge and practice, as well as being known to be 'mature' and difficult.
[23] The most basic meaning of this Sanskrit term is with technique. The technique of the different forms of yoga is what makes the practice meaningful. Yoga is not an easy or simple practice, viyoga is what is described as simple. Yoga is difficult in the fact of displaying the faith and meaning of Hinduism. Many Hindus tend to pick and choose between the five forms of yoga because of the way they live their life and how they want to practice it in the form they are most connected to.
[24]
In the
Vajrayana Buddhism of Tibet, however, the term "Yoga" is simply used to refer to any type of spiritual practice; from the various types of tantra (like
Kriyayoga or
Charyayoga) to '
Deity yoga' and '
guru yoga'. In the early translation phase of the
Sutrayana and
Tantrayana from India, China and other regions to Tibet, along with the practice lineages of
sadhana, codified in the
Nyingmapa canon, the most subtle 'conveyance' (Sanskrit:
yana) is
Adi Yoga(Sanskrit). A contemporary scholar with a focus on
Tibetan Buddhism,
Robert Thurmanwrites that Patanjali was influenced by the success of the
Buddhist monastic system to formulate his own matrix for the version of thought he considered orthodox.
[25]
MeditationEdit
There is a range of common terminology and common descriptions of the meditative states that are seen as the foundation of meditation practice in both Hindu Yoga and Buddhism. Many scholars have noted that the concepts of
dhyana and
samādhi - technical terms describing stages of meditative absorption – are common to meditative practices in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Most notable in this context is the relationship between the system of four Buddhist
dhyana states (
Pali:
jhana) and the
samprajnata samadhi states of Classical Yoga.
[26] Also, many (Tibetan) Vajrayana practices of the
generation stageand
completion stage work with the
chakras, inner energy channels (
nadis) and
kundalini, called
tummo in Tibetan.
