Romuva

{{Main article|Romuva (religion)}}

The Romova religion in Lithuania share similarities with ancient Hinduism.For example,in Lithuanian, the word darna means harmony and coherence, and for Lithuanian pagans, that’s a religious tenet as well — the balance of the world. It also superficially resembles the word dharma, Hinduism’s cosmic order.[5]

Some believes that Lithuania was a "Hindu-Buddhist" society until Christianization in the 15th century. In this view, Lithuanian paganism was a dharmic religion related to Hinduism and Buddhism. It is derived from certain similarities between the Lithuanian language and Sanskrit.[6]
