Answer:

Hinduism, which emerged about 3,500 years ago, and Buddhism, which started around 2,800 years ago, are two of the world’s main religions both of which originated in India.

While these religions are not particularly well understood in the west, they are the third and fourth-largest religions in the world after Christianity and Islam. In fact, 15% of the world’s population is Hindu and 7% is Buddhist.
