What is Difference Between Mahayana and Hinayana about?

Mahayana and Hinayana are the two major branches of Buddhism that emerged after the death of Gautama Buddha, differing in their philosophical teachings and practices. Mahayana emphasizes the divinity of Buddha and encourages idol worship, while Hinayana focuses on individual salvation through self-discipline and meditation. Both branches aim for enlightenment but interpret the path and practices differently, with Mahayana allowing for greater lay participation and a focus on the Bodhisattva ideal.
