1. Buddhims had emphasis on middle path in order to reach salvation whereas Brahminsm had very strict rules. It relied on someone who has exclusive rights to read the scriptures and rituals. This was absent in Buddhism.
2. Brahmnism accepted mostly men. Women were not allowed to read rituals. Whereas on other hand, Buddhism accepted women as Bikkhunis in their Sangha. Only condition was that they had to follow sangha rules. So this also created a gulf in the society, opposed to each other.
3. Brahmanism relied on Sanskrit , in which majority of scriptures were written. Buddhism adopted common mass language. So people were attracted towards Buddhism.
4. However both forms did not lay emphasis on sacrifices of animals. On that front, both were accepted by the society.
