Is that a problem for you? Why it is necessary fro you to say this?

Hinduism and Buddism is inseparable.....no matter how much neo-Buddhists try to present it in a separate way...nobody can separate mother from a child...understand?

Holy Dalai Lama.......

(((.....Instead of highlighting the philosophical differences between the Buddhism and Hinduism, the Dalai Lama illustrated the essential unity of spiritual traditions by taking the hands of two Hindu swamis sitting next to him, and said, “Leave the problem of anatma (hypothesis of nonexistence of the soul) to me, and leave the problem of atma (the existence of soul) to these teachers. Focus instead on what is good for you, what makes you happy, and what helps you overcome your pain and misery. Let me remind you that Lord Buddha was born here (in India). It is from this country that Tibet received knowledge. This revered land and the masters of this land are our teachers and we are the disciples.”........................)))

buddhism as a religion is clearly different from hinduism. the melding of the two hapens in hinduism only.

hindus believe in buddha and his teachigns and worship him as an avatar of vishnu.

but the atheistic standpoint of buddhism is a clear indication that the two religions are not ONE.
