Religions were founded after both Jesus and the Buddha. Both leaders taught the highest moral truths, but the Buddha said that he did not wish to be regarded as divine, while John's Gospel shows Jesus declaring that he was God.
Christians regard Jesus as as the Son of God and equally divine with God. However, Muslims regard both Jesus and the Buddha as prophets of Islam, but say that neither is divine.
There is a great deal of difference, Jesus only gives salvation, forgives our sins and gives us peace.Buddha does not give us this at all. Jesus is NOT the son of god
Christ was the son of a carpenter and Buddha was the son of a prince.
I know the difference between the two Buddha's but forgive me, for I do not remember the name of the type of Buddhism that uses each. (I believe one began with an M and the other a T) First off, there was a divide among the people if Buddha was a god or just a teacher. Those who thought he was a god went their own separate way to practice their religion based on Buddha (Siddartha Gautama) as a god. While the other group practiced his teachings as a great teacher and not a god. Therefore, the meditating Buddha represents the Buddhists who believed he was a teacher and Lord Buddha was a god.

There is no difference between Baby Jesus and Jesus Christ. Jesus is called Baby Jesus because He was born into this world like all of us, as a baby.

Jesus is God graciously reaching out to man. Buddha is man striving to be godlike. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. - John 14:6
A buddha is someone who has found out how to attain enlightenment for themselves. An Arahant is someone who was told how to do it by someone else.
Buddha and seniors?
Jesus is God's son
A:No. The Buddha lived centuries before Jesus, in the Axial Age, and could therefore not have known of Jesus or made any reference to him.
Buddhism started about 500 years before Christianity. In another way of looking at the question, the Buddha was about 80 years old when he died, the Christians' Jesus 30 or so.
