Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Protestant Reformation was similar to the Hindu Upanishad movement in that both movements' religious leaders exploited their power.
Key Takeaway: The religious leaders of the Upanishad movement began focusing on ritual, rather than substance. Protestant leaders, on the other hand, abused their power by selling indulgences. Although both movements were started by religious leaders who were abusing their powers, they were more popular with lower classes who could either not afford to purchase their salvation (in the case of Protestantism) or who wanted a more individual approach to their religion (Upanishad).
