Jainism and Hinduism are two ancient Indian religions. There are some similarities and differences between the two religions. Temples, gods, rituals, fasts and other religious components of Jainism are different from those of Hinduism.

"Jain" is derived from the word Jina, referring to a human being who has conquered all inner passions and possesses Kaivalyagyana. Followers of the path shown by the Jinas are called Jains. Followers of Hinduism are called Hindus.
