Everything - they're three completely different religions with vastly different histories, beliefs, and mythologies.

Hinduism doesn't give a sh!t, Taoism is the sh!t, and Buddhism is what will send you into the sh!t.

Hinduism is Deism. They believe in a God and have the main God or Godhead split into many smaller pieces.
Kind of like the Christian Trinity but even more so. Hinduism also believes in an afterlife with reincarnation until a person is pure enough to join up as part of the Godhead.
Buddhism is not directly deistic but Theistic instead.
Buddhism still believes in an afterlife, reincarnation and a sort of universal spirit or mind that we are all supposed to be part of. However Buddhism tells you to walk your own path to realizing yourself through overcoming your desires. You can overcome you desires in several ways (fulfill them or forget them basically) but the idea is still that you suffer because of desires and get peace by having no desires.

Taoism. This one is odd. The idea is that there is an empty and void shape which is nature. If we kind of go with the flow and let things happen the world should become easy. Taoism doesn't posit any spirits but it doesn't explicitly reject them either.
Taoism resembles early forms of Stoicism.
