  • Asoka's Dhamma
    / ASORA'S DIIAMMA - Ninnal C. Sinha A soka's place is second in the history of Dhamma, second only to ~he founder, Gautama Siddhartha the Buddha. Both Theravada (Southern Buddhist) and Mahayana (Northern Buddhist) traditions agree on this point that Asoka is second to Buddha. Nigrodha or Upagupta, Nagasena or Nagatjuna, both Theravada and Mahayana traditions agree, rank after Asoka. Brahmanical (Hindu) literary works extant bear testimony to Asoka being a great Buddhist. Kalhana in Rajatarangini (12th Cent. A.D.) records Asoka as having adopted the creed of Jina (= Buddha) and as the builder of numerous Stupas and Chaityas. Modem scholars, mostly European, however question the authenticity or purity of Asoka's Dhamma. Critics of Asoka notice the absence of Four Noble Truths, Eight Fold Path and Nirvana from Asoka's Edicts and point to Asoka's mention of Svaga (Svarga) or Heaven in the Edicts. Some scholars hint that Asoka's toleration policy was to accommodate Brahmanical faith while others label Asoka's Dhamma as his invention. In my submission Asoka was a Buddhist first and a Buddhist last. Asoka's own words, that is, Asoka's Edicts substantiate this finding. Inscriptions of Asoka were read and translated by pioneer scholars like Senart, Hultzsch, Bhandarkar, Barua and Woolner. I 5 cannot claim competence to improve on their work and extract mainly from the literal translation of Hultzsch (Corpus Inscriptionum Indicarum: Volume I, London 1925). This ensures that I do not read my own meaning into any word of Asoka. For the same reason I use already done English translation ofPali/Sanskrit texts.

  • Buddhist Community Views on Objects in the Collection
    Buddhist Community Views on Objects in the Collection From April to September 2006, seven advisory groups were held with members of different faith community groups. The aims of these were to consult with the communities that the V&A collections were relevant to and see what reactions they had about the V&A collections. The participants were asked to select from groups of pictures of V&A objects and prioritise what items struck them most. These could be for personal reasons or how important they were from a cultural or faith point of view, artistically or whether they still had relevance to their lives today. A Buddhist Stupa in Manikiala 'I chose this stupa for more personal reasons because when I was in India on pilgrimage I saw some similar brick stupas to house the relics of the Buddha. Nowadays they don't look very much like stupas, you have to be told they are stupas. They look more like mole hills because, over time, I think the villagers took the stones away to build their own houses. They have a strangely peaceful impression on me and the mind goes into a kind of emptiness which is what these stupas are about really, to come to this place of contained emptiness.' Sister Cittapala ( Amaraviti Monastry) Majestic Calm of The Great Buddha 'We don't have many old big Buddha statues left and so I think it is very important. When they see Buddha statues it brings peacefulness in their minds.' Lelung Tulku (Tibetan Monk) 'I chose the Great Buddha at Kamakura in Japan and I found it particularly moving to look at this image.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 29, 2013 Accepted: May 18, 2013 Online Published: June 28, 2013 doi:10.5539/ass.v9n9p64 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v9n9p64 Abstract Buddhism is an intrinsic feature of Thai culture. With a ninety percent Buddhist population, Thailand has been built around the principles of Dharma. These principles have traditionally been taught to the local community by temples, through a variety of different activities. Recently, however, Thai society has adopted an increasing number of Western cultural features that have caused the importance of traditional Buddhist activities to decline. This research tries to understand the reasons for the decline of community interest in local Buddhist activities in Bangkok, so to propose a model for the organization of such activities and ensure that they are not lost to future generations. Keywords: Buddhism, temple, activity, culture, society, organization, development 1. Introduction Buddhism originated in India two thousand five hundred years ago at a time of many religions and doctrines. Each of these religions and doctrines had ancient foundations of belief, making it extremely difficult for Buddhism to occur.
