Hinduism grew from which of the following preclassical religions? A.Buddhism B.Islam C.The Vedic religion D.Christianity

Respuesta :

Answer:    C. The Vedic

Explanation:  Hinduism is a polytheistic religion, it is considered to be one of the oldest religions in the world, and it has been in existence since 5000 years ago and perhaps more, of course not in today's form.  In Hinduism, there are customs of worship of sacred flora and fauna, which is considered to be a pre-Vedic tradition, also known as the Dravidian tradition. With the arrival of Aryans to the Indian peninsula from Persia, the tradition of Veda (or Vedic), somewhere between 2000 and 1200 BC has arrived. Scientists say that today's Hinduism is a fusion of pre-Vedic tradition, that is, the Dravidian tradition and traditions of the Aryans-the Vedic, as well as some other influences.

Buddhism originated from Hinduism in the fifth century BC, while Christianity was created approximately, after 33 AC, and Islam in the seventh century AC, which means that these three religions can not be the root from which Hinduism grew.
