  • The Founding of Buddhism
    IV The Founding of Buddhism 1. THE LIFE OF THE BUDDHA Siddhartha of the Gautama clan, later called the Buddha, or “the enlightened one,” began life in the foothills of the Himalayas, where his people, the Sakyas, were primarily rice farmers. The Sakyas formed the small city-state of Kapilavastu with an oligarchic republican constitution, under the hegemony of the powerful Magadha and Kosala Kingdoms to the south.1 Siddhartha traveled south to study, and so, after his Enlightenment, he first spread his doctrines in Northeastern India, south of the Ganges, west of Bhagalpur, and east of the Son River—South Bihar, nowadays. The people of this provincial area had been only partially assimilated to the Aryan culture and its Brahminic religion. Brahminism focused in the region of Northwestern India between the Ganges and Jumma Rivers, the older center of Indian civilization. Indeed, despite Buddhism’s anti-Brahmin cast, its chief rival in the early days may have been not Brahminism, but Jainism. Though Gautama was probably a Kshatriya, the rigidities of the Caste system were not yet established in the region, and Kapilavastu was oligarchic, so his father was not, as legend has it, a king.2 He left home in his youth against the will of his parents to become a wandering ascetic,3 an odd and irresponsible thing to do 1The location of Gautama’s homeland is confirmed in the Nikayas, which give the names of the places where each discourse was delivered. See Sutta Nipata 422, Digha Nikaya I 87 ff. 2The earliest scriptures do not provide an account of the life of the founder after the fashion of the Christian Gospels, but concentrate on preserving his words.

  • Political Economy of Idenity Formation, 1890- 1910: Class and Community in Colonial Punjab
    Political Economy of Idenity Formation, 1890- 1910: Class and Community in Colonial Punjab * Haider Ali Agha Abstract This paper analyses the rise of Muslim communal consciousness from the perspective of class conflict between different religious communities of this region. Punjab, being a Muslim majority province of British India, had agricultural and pastoral economy, notwithstanding the fact that colonial projects such as building of railways and canal colonies later radically altered pre-capitalist economic structure. British political and legal institutions along with these projects played a role in shaping and formation of group identity although it could not transform the consciousness which was distinctive of agrarian-pastoral society. The kind of nationalism which originated and developed on soil of the Punjab was professedly of religious nature. In the social milieu, rival religious communities vied for political and economic dominance. This paper seeks to explore the relation between class interest of landed elites and Muslim nationalist consciousness. The idea of religious nationalism, both among Hindus and Muslims, was developed and exploited by powerful elites representing economic interests of different classes to strengthen their political position in the Punjab. The paper also analyses how economic structure built by colonial state sharpened the antagonism between social classes of Muslim and non-Muslim 106 Pakistan Vision Vol. 17 No. 2 communities which eventually led to idea of Muslim separatism in the Punjab. Introduction This rise and growth of consciousness of Muslims as a distinct community in the Punjab has been a focus of researches by eminent native and foreign historians. Most of those, who conducted the research on this area, have either studied this phenomenon as the product of pre-existing communal fault lines or from a perspective of colonial policy of divide et impera.

Wilson), EBSCOHOST, Google Scholar, WorldCat etc. Exploring Tourism Opportunities: Documentation of the Use of Spaces of the Pre- Partitioned Temples and Gurudwaras in Punjab, Pakistan Zahida Rehman Jatt University of Sindh, Jamshoro (Pakistan) Abstract: This research study deals with documentation of the use of spaces of the Hindu and Jain temples and Sikh gurudwars in Gujranwala and Narowal districts of Punjab province. These worship places that once served as the religious centers before partition of the subcontinent have now been inhabited by refugee families that came to Pakistan from east Punjab in 1947. The spaces are now been converted into domestic ones and their utilization from places of worship has been altered in order to fulfill the domestic needs. So, this study would highlight how the present inhabitants perceive those spaces and how they deal with them. It will also be explored whether the people have any information of the historical significance and importance of these structures or not and how they treat various sections of these buildings. The paper finally explores how preservation of heritage can contribute to tourism development and boost up the economy of the people. Keywords: Sacred spaces, Significance, Temples and Gurudwaras, Domestic, Tourism Development 1. Introduction: Partition of subcontinent was one of those few events in human history that profoundly affected the lives of millions of individuals in a variety of ways.
