Somebody already used the word "parallels" so I am gonna say similarities between Buddhism and Hinduism

The video about the Buddha brought back so much nostalgia from Mr. Spray's class. I still remember the music from freshmen Ancient World History. So after refreshing up on my Buddhist history, I started picking up on the many parallels that my peers also noticed. First off, the founding location of both religions is in the similar region of Northern India. Second, both religions believe that reincarnation exists and existence is suffering. Both religions believe that there is a way to stop the cycle of reincarnation, however both religions take a different direction in achieving enlightenment. Hindus believe that one must accept their position in life and be a good person in order until on can move up the social ladder and achieve enlightenment. Buddhist on the other hand believe that through an eightfold path one can achieve nirvana. Personally, I believe that Buddhism budded off from Hinduism, similar to how Christianity formed from Judaism. Hinduism existed in Northern India for 1000 years before Buddhism appeared, so it would make sense that Gautama Buddha's beliefs to incorporate many Hindu beliefs.
