  • Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal
    Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal Buddhist Pilgrimage Tour in Nepal with Nepal Environmental Buddhist For Buddhist tourists around the world, a pilgrimage to a holy Buddhist destination is perhaps, the one that gives the most satisfaction. It is a journey that brings them closer to their religion by enhancing their appreciation for its principles, beliefs and philosophies. Nepal is home to two of the most holy of places connected with Buddhism. These places are directly related with Lord Gautam Buddha. Lumbini, the first and most important of the two, is the birth place of Gautam Buddha while Kapilavastu is the place where he grew up, witnessed pain and sorrow of life and ultimately decided to give up everything in search of enlightenment. Hindu From ancient times, Nepal has been the place of origin for the Hindu religion and the holy place of Lord Pashupatinath. For centuries, mythology and mystique has swept the land and there are numerous temples, mosques and monasteries. Hindu pilgrimage tours or 'Tirtha Yatras' are considered an important way of attaining salvation. However, people of all faiths and religions have dreams of visiting these revered spots as a pilgrim to invoke the blessings of their Gods and obtain forgiveness for all their sins and escape the divine wrath. Hindu pilgrimage tour in Nepal Nepal is not only known for its natural beauty but also as a cultural melting pot where two of the oldest religions of the world co-exist in perfect harmony- Hinduism and Buddhism. Dating back thousands of years, some of the oldest religious sites in Nepal are revered as the holiest places for salvation by Hindus and Buddhists.

  • The New Business of Buddhism Yuko Nakamura
    THE NEW BUSINESS OF BUDDHISM YUKO NAKAMURA TOKYO CITY UNIVERSITY This paper examines the recent phenomenon of Japanese Buddhist organizations engaging in economic ventures such as restaurant businesses. Although most people in Japan still practice some religious activities, their level of engagement has declined, and Japan’s population is shrinking As a result, traditional Buddhist temples face an existential crisis. This article shows how this crisis has forced those institutions to turn to new economic strategies. While these businesses have been fairly unsuccessful economically, they have helped the organizations invent new ways to engage with people, exposing them to the principles of Buddhism and nurturing a new generation of patrons. Keywords : religion, Buddhism, Buddhist restaurants, Otera Café, Japan Introduction Buddhism in Japan is in a state of flux, and it has been so for some time. The evidence is easily findable online: you can do a “Buddhist temple stay”, experience a “dating event at a Buddhist temple”, practice “yoga at a Buddhist temple”, and so on. These are all new business ventures that temples have established alongside their traditional religious and ceremonial activities. Why are they doing this? Because unless they do, they may cease to exist, as demographic and cultural forces line up against them. This article will focus on a new type of restaurant business that some Buddhist temples have lately started, describing them as a typical instance of the ways these organizations attempt to break out of a cycle driven by evolving religious practices and a declining population. This study first sketches the background of this phenomenon in the context of Buddhism’s history in Japan, and provides some current data based on observational 68 The New Business of Buddhism research in four Buddhist-owned cafés and bars in several locations.

The Conference Committee The Classroom and Beyond 3 KOTESOL International Conference 2001, Seoul A Message from the Co-chair It is my greatest honour, duty, and privilege to welcome you all to the 9th Korea TESOL International Conference, being held at Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, on October 13th and 14th. As we head into autumn, with all the sights, sounds, scents, and colours that surround us, we take the time to meet together, as a group of teachers and scholars, under the theme "The Learning Environ- ment: the Classroom and Beyond." The Conference cannot come together without the hard work and effort of many people - the Conference Committee, members of the National Executive Council (both of whom are made of teachers and professors, like you), and our student volunteers (who are just like the students you teach in your schools, colleges, and universities). When you have the chance, stop one of them and thank them for their work! As we join together for this Conference, to listen to papers, to take part in workshops and discus- sions, to discuss issues of importance over lunch boxes, dinner tables, and beer glasses, we would do well to think about things like: · What is the learning environment, for our students and us? · Do we use that environment as fully and productively as we should, or could? · How can we maximize learning opportunities for our students and ourselves? · What changes can we (or should we) make to "the learning environment"? The last ten years have seen momentous change.

According to David Harvey's theory that in the postmodern era, time and space are highly compressed by advanced technologies. Under this situation, the temple stay program has already become a popular ac- tivity in contemporary Chinese society. It tries to solve the problems of time and space compression, and at the same time, it also reveals the unsolvable problems. In fact, just as the tendency of time and space compression and the development of globalization have many contradictions, short-term monastic life reveals similar contradictions. From the case study of Bailin Temple, short-term monastic life as a brand of Chinese Buddhism can be understood as an accommodation to current trends.

  • The Acquisition of Progressive Morphology by Korean Learners of English: Ll Transfer and Learnability
    105 English Teaching, Vol. 68, No. 2, Summer 2013 The Acquisition of Progressive Morphology by Korean Learners of English: Ll Transfer and Learnability Hye-ryeong Hahn (Seowon University) Hahn, Hye-ryeong. (2013). The acquisition of progressive morphology by Korean learners of English: L1 transfer and learnability. English Teaching, 68(2), 105-130. The present study addresses a learnability problem in the acquisition of English progressive aspect by Korean learners of English. As Korean and English differ in the way that the lexical aspect of verbs interacts with progressive morphology, we predicted that Korean learners of Engli sh would be affected by their LI aspectual system, accepting non-targetlike combinations of lexical aspect and aspectual morphology. Sixty Korean university students were presented with sentences containing different aspectual classes of verbs in two conditions- the progressive and the simple present-and were asked to judge the naturalness of the sentences. The results showed that the majority of the learners erroneously accepted progressive sentences containing stative verbs. It also showed that the learners accepted simple present constructions containing eventitive verbs for an ongoing interpretation, indicating the pervasiveness of L 1 transfer. The findings strongly suggest that Korean EFL learners have difficulty ruling out erroneous form-meaning associations based on their LI progressive morphology. Key words: progressive aspect, simple present, lexical aspect, learnability, transfer 1. INTRODUCTION Acquiring L2 morpho-syntactic features is one of the lasting problems in L2 acquisition. English verbal morphology such as third person singular and present perfect poses difficulties even for highly proficient learners (Birdsong & Molis, 2001; DeKeyser, 2000; Johnson & Newport, 1989: Lardiere, 1998).
