Well, well well, what I think in this is, Gautam Buddha himself was a Hindu before is a great belief and the fact that Lumbini was a hindu kingdom supports this. I consider hinduism and buddhism as parts of each other. I mean they are not so much different religion as hinduism and christianity is or hinduism and islam is. What I also think is Buddhism is not a religion but a pholosophy and the theory where as hinduism is a religions which has been followed for thousands of years. I might be wrong but, it helps me to believe in both. mystery man said 93 % both but, that percent is dominated by hindus, u can check that again. Since nepal dude also talked about sprituality and scientific, I not only think but also believe that hinduism also has all the spirituality that we are looking for. It is fully scientific and in some cases even more than science has thought. If it was not scientific, do you think all these goras who chant hare krishna and hare rama would be chanting that, no way. Might be some of them are doing it for fashion and fun but most of them believe in that and are following hare krishna............. Hinduism is a huge topic to talk about. We have to decide on what part we want to follow. What we are doing now is just followint a religion, not a specific path of that religion, this shows that we are going without any kind of destination but if u follow a certain path to reach your destination, hinduism is not less than others.
