How do we know we understand these religions accurately? There's so much variety and so many sects for Hindu religion that their own members often don't treat them as a familial group of sects, and they have many strange pagan beliefs like cow dung is purifying, hence the dung throwing festivals. Hinduism and Buddhism have both been marketed and politicized in the West for easy financial gains by sect leaders. It doesn't help that Western "intellectuals" (including image board fringe pseuds and the occasional smart poster), who only half understand these religions with thousands of years of texts and commentaries, gatekeep and filter our knowledge of them.

Imagine spending thousands of pages to communicate the idea that you should make yourself an NPC. Siri is the most enlightened being for its mind is clear and without desire and works for the liberation of all beings (by telling them what day their dentist appointment is and thus creates knowledge of self.)

That my friends, is Hinduism and Buddhism (with very insignificant differences)
