You obviously don't read. Like I said, nobody practices vedic hinduism anymore. It wasn't displaced by "Modern" practices. The vedic teachings were displaced because the culture itself changed. Philosophies change over time, sister moon dumbass. After buddha came along, buddhism became the most popular religion because layman could practice it. Hinduism changed to adopt to this standard by becoming more accessible to people who weren't born into the Brahmanic religion.
Secondly, even vedic hinduism is an amalgamation of Dravidic, Harrapan and Aryan belief systems.

All Indian Philosophies have fairly similar teachings, just slightly different. The biggest difference between Hinduism and Buddhism is that buddhism doesn't believe in gods. Other than that, buddha was essentially a hindu.
You see, the difference between my argument and your argument is that you don't understand philosophy or the meaning of the underlying teachings. I, however, do, because I have both a brain and "College credits represent yo".
