Shramanism was a religious and philosophical tradition that arose in India some time between 4000 and 1200 BCE. It consisted of a several different orders. Shramanas were wandering monks that emphasized Vedic self-control rather than the Vedic yajnas.
They believed in Vedic Dharma traditions such as renunciation (Sanyass.)
Two of these orders have survived, and become full-fledged religions: Jainism and Buddhism.
