  • Question 8

    Which of the following choices is the most fundamental difference between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism?

    Solution

    Buddhism is divided into two main religious groups: Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism (also known as Theravada). These two religious groups share a lot of similarities but have a few differences. One of the differences is that Hinayana Buddhism (Theravada Buddhism) can be considered Atheistic or Pantheistic. There is no god beyond the universe in Theravada, and followers of Theravada do not worship the universe or anything else. Mahayana Buddhism is Polytheistic and has a collection of gods and goddesses called boddhisattvas.

    Hence, we find the fourth choice 'Worship of gods and goddesses' is the most fundamental difference between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism.
