  • Stages of the Path: Stream Entry and Beyond by Bodhiketu
    Stages of the Path: Stream Entry and Beyond by Bodhiketu For many years I have thought that the traditional Nikāya scheme of Stream Entrant, Once- Returner, Non-Returner and Arahant was unclear. The category of Once-Returner seems particularly strange, even bizarre. What does it mean to have a 'stage' in which the fourth and fifth fetters (that is, craving and hatred) are merely weakened? How ‘weak’ is enough to qualify? How could that be measured or attained? This appeared to be nothing other than an example of scholastic foolishness, but the scheme was not easy to dismiss because it is asserted as a very real category in the Pali Canon and commentaries. Moreover, there is an apparent contradiction within the Pali Canon itself about the ethical criteria that are indicative of Stream Entry. I have for some time thought that these ethical criteria were often set too high, both within the Western Buddhist Order and within the contemporary Theravāda, within parts of which it seems that Stream Entry has even come to be regarded as beyond the reach of practitioners in this current age. Why does any of this matter? Ultimately, I believe, it makes a great difference to the confidence that we have in our traditions – our institutions, practices and practitioners. In addition, it seems to me that being clear about the doctrine is of critical practical importance. Sangharakshita, the founder of the Western Buddhist Order, is often quoted as saying that Stream Entry is well within the reach of members of the Western Buddhist Order who have practised wholeheartedly for 20-30 years.

    Burmese Buddhist Imagery of the Early Bagan Period (1044 – 1113) 2 Volumes By Charlotte Kendrick Galloway A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University November 2006 ii Declaration I declare that to the best of my knowledge, unless where cited, this thesis is my own original work. Signed: Date: Charlotte Kendrick Galloway iii Acknowledgments There are a number of people whose assistance, advice and general support, has enabled me to complete my research: Dr Alexandra Green, Dr Bob Hudson, Dr Pamela Gutman, Dick Richards, Dr Tilman Frasch, Sylvia Fraser- Lu, Dr Royce Wiles, Dr Don Stadtner, Dr Catherine Raymond, Prof Michael Greenhalgh, Ma Khin Mar Mar Kyi, U Aung Kyaing, Dr Than Tun, Sao Htun Hmat Win, U Sai Aung Tun and Dr Thant Thaw Kaung. I thank them all, whether for their direct assistance in matters relating to Burma, for their ability to inspire me, or for simply providing encouragement. I thank my colleagues, past and present, at the National Gallery of Australia and staff at ANU who have also provided support during my thesis candidature, in particular: Ben Divall, Carol Cains, Christine Dixon, Jane Kinsman, Mark Henshaw, Lyn Conybeare, Margaret Brown and Chaitanya Sambrani. I give special mention to U Thaw Kaung, whose personal generosity and encouragement of those of us worldwide who express a keen interest in the study of Burma's rich cultural history, has ensured that I was able to achieve my own personal goals. There is no doubt that without his assistance and interest in my work, my ability to undertake the research required would have been severely compromised – thank you.

  • Buddhism As a Pragmatic Religious Tradition
    CHAPTER 1 Introduction: Buddhism as a Pragmatic Religious Tradition Our approach to Religion can be called “vernacular” . [It is] concerned with the kinds of data that may, even- tually, be able to give us some substantial insight into how religions have played their part in history, affect- ing people’s ability to respond to environmental crises; to earthquakes, floods, famines, pandemics; as well as to social ills and civil wars. Besides these evils, there are the everyday difficulties and personal disasters we all face from time to time. Religions have played their part in keeping people sane and stable....We thus see religions as an integral part of vernacular history, as a strand woven into lives of individuals, families, social groups, and whole societies. Religions are like technol- ogy in that respect: ever present and influential to peo- ple’s ability to solve life’s problems day by day. Vernon Reynolds and Ralph Tanner, The Social Ecology of Religion The Buddhist faith expresses itself most authentically in the processions of statues through towns, the noc- turnal illuminations in the streets and countryside. It is on such occasions that communion between the reli- gious and laity takes place . without which the religion could be no more than an exercise of recluse monks. Jacques Gernet, Buddhism in Chinese Society: An Economic History from the Fifth to the Tenth Centuries 1 2 Popular Buddhist Texts from Nepal Whosoever maintains that it is karma that injures beings, and besides it there is no other reason for pain, his proposition is false.... Milindapañha IV.I.62 Health, good luck, peace, and progeny have been the near- universal wishes of humanity.

  • Holidays and Observances, 2020
    Holidays and Observances, 2020 For Use By New Jersey Libraries Made by Allison Massey and Jeff Cupo Table of Contents A Note on the Compilation…………………………………………………………………….2 Calendar, Chronological……………….…………………………………………………..…..6 Calendar, By Group…………………………………………………………………………...17 Ancestries……………………………………………………....……………………..17 Religion……………………………………………………………………………….19 Socio-economic……………………………………………………………………….21 Library……………………………………...…………………………………….…...22 Sources………………………………………………………………………………....……..24 1 A Note on the Compilation This listing of holidays and observances is intended to represent New Jersey’s diverse population, yet not have so much information that it’s unwieldy. It needed to be inclusive, yet practical. As such, determinations needed to be made on whose holidays and observances were put on the calendar, and whose were not. With regards to people’s ancestry, groups that made up 0.85% of the New Jersey population (approximately 75,000 people) and higher, according to Census data, were chosen. Ultimately, the cut-off needed to be made somewhere, and while a round 1.0% seemed a good fit at first, there were too many ancestries with slightly less than that. 0.85% was significantly higher than any of the next population percentages, and so it made a satisfactory threshold. There are 20 ancestries with populations above 75,000, and in total they make up 58.6% of the New Jersey population. In terms of New Jersey’s religious landscape, the population is 67% Christian, 18% Unaffiliated (“Nones”), and 12% Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu. These six religious affiliations, which add up to 97% of the NJ population, were chosen for the calendar. 2% of the state is made up of other religions and faiths, but good data on those is lacking.

Seri Penerbitan 019 Disusun dan diterjemahkan oleh, Saṅgha Theravada Indonesia bekerja sama dengan Mapanbudhi PENGANTAR Dalam kehidupan di dunia yang fana ini manusia umumnya tidak dapat terlepas dari pengalaman suka dan duka. Yang dimaksud dengan suka di sini adalah pengalaman-pengalaman yang mengarah pada kesejahteraan dan kebahagiaan dalam kehidupan; sedangkan duka adalah pengalaman-pengalaman yang berupa tidak tercapainya, terhalangnya atau hilangnya kesejahteraan dan kebahagiaan itu. Dalam tiap-tiap kejadian, manusia senantiasa membutuhkan suatu kekuatan moril yang merupakan dorongan untuk mencapai kesejahteraan dan kebahagiaan, atau untuk mengatasi kedukaan yang diderita. Untuk keperluan tersebut, paritta-paritta yang tertera dalam kitab ini telah digunakan turun-temurun oleh umat Buddha dan telah dirasakan kemanfaatannya. Dalam kehidupan masyarakat ini kita mengalami peristiwa- peristiwa seperti: pernikahan, kelahiran, ulang tahun, menginjak kedewasaan, sakit, meninggal dunia atau kematian, dan peristiwa- peristiwa lain. Di samping itu ada pula pengharapan agar usaha-usaha dalam hidup memperoleh kemajuan; seperti: mendirikan/menghuni rumah baru, usaha baru dan sebagainya. Paritta-paritta dalam kitab ini dibagi-bagi sesuai dengan tujuan agar dapat dibaca pada peristiwa-peristiwa yang dimaksud di atas. Ada pun paritta-paritta yang sesuai dengan maksud tersebut jumlahnya amat banyak, maka oleh karenanya, sesuai dengan keperluan dan keadaan waktu yang tersedia, dapat dipilih paritta-paritta tertentu di samping yang wajib digunakan.
