Here are my beliefs:
There is one Supreme God called Waheguru
There are 6 demi-Gods: Brahma (creation), Saraswati (knowledge), Vishnu (preservation), Lakshmi (wealth), Shiva (destruction) and Parvati/Durga (love and courage)
Waheguru and Dattatreya are the same as Dattatreya has the 3 aspects of the 6 demi-Gods
Vishnu and Shiva have avatars; Shiva has Ganesh and Hanuman while Vishnu has 24 including Rama, Krishna and Buddha
Rama had human descendants in the form of Guru Nanak and Guru Gobind Singh. There are 12 Gurus- the 10 Gurus plus Guru Ravidass and Guru Banda Singh. Gurus were not Gods
There are 29 Buddhas but only Siddharta Gautama is an incarnation of Vishnu so only he is a God-Buddha
Shirdi Sai Baba is a human but a great sage capable of miracles
Kalki Avatar is the second coming of Jesus
Am I a true Hindu? I'm not the only one who believes in figures from non-Hindu religions being part of Hinduism; plenty of Hindus do (especially in Punjab, Rajasthan, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Maharastra). A sizeable portion of Buddhists, Sikhs and Jains in India also believe this so are they technically Hindus?
Maybe i'm overanalysing
