Historical view of Buddhism
The Three Jewels:
The Sanskrit term "triratna"
(or tiratna in Pāli) literally means "Three Jewels". In Buddhism the
Three Jewels (or Three Treasures) refer to the Buddha, The Dharma (the Buddha's
teachings) and the Sangha (the community of monks and nuns, or more generally
the community of Buddhist practitioners). The name of this domain
"triratna.info" reflects the contents of this website, information
about Buddhism, not just one of the yānas (see below) but all of Buddhism. At
present this website presents information about one aspect of Buddhism which
everyone can understand and relate to - historical facts, people and their
interconnections...
Teaching mediation to prison to the prisoner or guard
In the mid-1970s Vipassana was first tried within
a prison environment with two 10 day courses being conducted for jail officials
and inmates of a prison in Jaipur in the Indian state of Rajasthan. Despite the
success of those courses, no further jail courses were conducted in India for
almost 20 years. In 1993 a new Inspector General of Indian prisons, Kiran Bedi,
was appointed and in the process of trying to reform the harsh Indian penal
system, learned of the earlier Vipassana courses. She requested that additional
courses be conducted in the largest prison in India, Tihar Jail outside of New
Delhi. The results were dramatically sucessful....
What is Neuronlogy ? How does work? Compare with Buddhism
Neurology is not only a brain-related specialty.
As well as migraines, epilepsy and headaches, behavioral and cognitive
disorders, brain cancer and traumatic brain injury, neurological disorders
include progressive diseases such as Huntington’s and Lou Gehrig’s disease, and
demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
Being top in the hierarchy of any system is not
an easy job always. The organizational abilities at this level will be highly
demanding, challenging, and daunting to say the least. Our nervous system,
especially the central nervous system (brain & spinal cod) occupying such a
position is expected to deliver...
Socrates (what does mean philosophy)
The word Philosophy is Greek for
"love/pursuit of knowledge", but for Socrates philosophy is so much
more than that. Socrates does not merely love knowledge. For Socrates knowledge
is a way of life, in fact, the only way. When faced with the opportunity to
escape death on the condition that Socrates quit "philosophizing",
Socrates would rather die. Socrates also mentions that people should not fear
death since they don't know what it will be like. This shows that Socrates mind
is always open to new possibilities. In Socrates time, many people simply
believed what they were told, but Socrates did not just accept any answe...

Who Am I?’
I am pure Awareness. This Awareness is by its very nature
Being-Consciousness-Bliss (Sat-Chit-Ananda).
'Who am I?'
The physical body, composed of the seven dhatus, is not 'I'. The five sense
organs… and the five types of perception known through the senses… are not 'I'.
The five parts of the body which act… and their functions… are not 'I'. The
five vital airs such as prana, which perform...

Difference between Religion & Philosophy
Difference between Religion & Philosophy
Vamsapala
1D; 5301201125
Generally,
we can say Religion and philosophy are one and
the same.
Religion and philosophy are
interrelated. Religion is a set of principles, morals, ethics, and rules set up
to lead one's life. Philosophy is a discipline which deals with life,
metaphysics, knowledge, and the ultimate truth. Both religion and philosophy
have their own similarities and differences....
Criticize the concept of Theism & Atheism
Criticize the concept of Theism
& Atheism
The
meaning of Theism believes in God it is simply. More ever, theism is a belief
in the existence of at least one god - nothing more, nothing less. Theism does
not depend upon how many gods one believes in. Theism does not depend upon how
the term 'god' is defined. Theism does not depend upon how one arrives at their
belief. Theism does not depend upon how one defends their belief....

Self" or "Great Self" of the nirvanic realm is said to be
sovereign, to be attained on the morning of Buddhahhood, and to pervade all places
like space.

JAINISM
JAINISM
Vamsapala: 5301201125
Jainas
believe that there have been twentythree religious teachers prior to Mahavira
who have contributed to the foundation and development of jaina religion. These
religious teachers are known in Jainism as tirthankara ( perfect soul) or jin (
conqueor or victor of passions). Mahavira like a buddha, was a kshtriya by
birth and was an elder contemporary of the latter. mahavira prached a
non-theistic religion of moral purity and excellence in which man was at the
centre and the main aim was to liberate man out of the chain of karma and
rebirth in which he was fallen....

HINDUSIM (Brief )
Hinduism
is perhaps the oldest religions of the world. According to Veda scripture ,
Hinduism is more like a tree that has
grown gradually than like a building that has been erected by some great
architect at some definite point in time. It contains within itself the
influences of many cultures and the body of Hindu thought thus offers as much
variety as the indian nation itself....

Buddhism
is indisputably a separate religion and philosophy, which has excreted immense
influence over the religious and philosophical thinking of the world. Buddhism
has a definite origin in a definite founder , Gotama who was born in a royal
hindu family. Buddhism is thus, at least in its original form, a practical
religion of pure ethical discipline, it does not believe in any god and
therefore no ritualistic acts find any place in it. Although Buddhism does not believe in any god
until later on Buddha himself was begun to be venerated like god Buddhists form
the very beginning have...

Sati Sutta summary
Vamsapala
5301201125
The
term sati has two meanings which, although apparently opposed are actually
related: awareness, attention, mindfulness, fact of being clearly conscious. It
is one of the seven bojjhaṅgas, said to be the most important because the other
six are to be developed along with it. The standard defintion of sammā·sati. Sati is one of the five spiritual indriyas
and the five balas.
These
