What is Buddhism?
  To sum up, the Buddha's mission was to establish a path to spiritual perfection, to full enlightenment and Nibbana, liberation from suffering. Buddhism is a path of the practice and spiritual development in the real nature for life. He did this by propounding a teaching that acknowledged our capacity for attaining spiritual perfection yet which also remained fully respectful of the intelligence and autonomy of human beings. His approach was psychological in orientation, non-dogmatic, pragmatic, and open to investigation.
Buddhism does not include the belief for worshipping a maker god. Buddhism practices for example meditation. Meditation means changing oneself into order to build on the qualities of wisdom, kindness and awareness. Above thousand years, Buddhist experience developed that has made an incomparable resource and wish to follow the path. Path means culminates into Buddha hood or Enlightenment. The fundamental tenets of the Buddhist teaching are practical and straightforward: nothing is permanent or fixed; change is a possible; actions have results. So Buddhism itself addresses to every person irrespective of the gender, nationality or race. Buddhism is teaching for practical methods.
Moral order is Dhamma

• There is an order in the physical world and proved by phenomenon, certain order in the movements and action of the starry bodies, there is certain order by which season come and go in sequence, there is certain order by which seeds goes into trees, and tress yields fruits and fruits gives seeds. In Buddhist terminology these are called Niyamas, laws which produce an orderly sequence such as Rutu Niyam, Bija Niyam.
• Similarly there is a moral order in Human society. How it is produced? How its maintained? God is the Supreme Governor of the world is the answer of this question who believe on god overcome these difficulties the thesis has been somewhat modified. Here no doubt creation took effect at the command of God, it is also true that the cosmos entered upon its life by his will and by his direction. And it is also true that God imparted to the cosmos once for all the energy which served as the driving power of a stupendous mechanism, but God leaves it to Nature to work itself out in obedience to the laws originally given by him.
• That was Buddha's answer to the question was simple. It is the Kamma Niyam and not God which maintained.
• Kamma means man's action and vipaka its effect. Speaking of the law of Kamma If the moral order is good does Khusal means good kamma. If the moral order is bad because man does Akusala means bad kamma
• Buddha wanted to convey was that the effect of the deed was bound to follow it was like Niyam or rule.

Karma Karma refers to the law of cause and effect in a person's life, reaping what one has sown. Buddhists believe that every person must go through a process of birth and rebirth Karma refers to effect and cause into a person life. Buddhist considers that all persons have to go during a procedure of the birth and rebirth cycle. For Buddhist say that next life depends on the present life of karma.
Nirvana
Nirvana means "the blowing out" of existence. Nirvana is extremely various from the Christian concept of heaven. Nirvana is no a place similar to heaven other than rather a state for being. Nirvana is a state being of everlasting. Buddha never gives an accurate description of the Nirvana, other than Buddha close reply Nirvana. There is a condition, disciples, somewhere there is earth or water, air or light, limitless space, limitless time, some type of being, ideation or non- ideation, this world or that world."
Samsara or Transmigration
Samsara or Transmigration is one of the mainly difficult and confusing concepts into Buddhism to appreciate. The Samsara law holds that all is into a birth and rebirth cycle. Buddha taught to people don't have individual souls. There is not everlasting substance of person that leaves during rebirth cycle.

Ten differences between Hinduism and Buddhism

1. Hindu religion is child of Brahman Religion; Brahman religion is Child of Vedic Religion. Buddhism is an ideology separated out in the time of Brahman religion, not from Hindu religion in the form of Buddha.
2. Any person of any religion can become Buddhist if he wants to remove suffering like Gautama Buddha. And any one who is found of Prgya and have sila with karuna can be called as Buddhist. But who called themselves Buddhist without having such qualities is not true follower of Buddha.
3. Buddha philosophy is totally against of any discrimination among people and societies, even no Gender discrimination was allowed. Whereas Vedic/ Brahman, these philosophy was fully in support of slavery and racism. Hindu philosophy was upholding the same from their fathers. However they are little liberal, yet this is an issue of fighting because of loosing their fake privilege.
4. Hindu Moxsha : Get away from rebirth Soul transfer cycle to never get in again.
   Buddha-Nirvana: A state of joy of complete silence where you are found of the highest degree of Pragya with Sila and Karuna, in favor of humanity. And that state will start continuing rebirth to never get away from this cycle among the humans in the form of knowledge transfer.
5. In Hinduism: expected magic of Faith from the God.
   Buddhism: Expected magic of Science from your own mind.
6. In Hinduism: win by violence support.
   Buddhism: win by non-violence support.
7. In Hinduism: Worshiping other's light.

8. In Hinduism Rishi: Forehead mark Tilak, hairless head with pony.
