aren’t real and an illusion, then why are we here? Are we here to realize the reality, purify our jivas, or something completely different. Another idea of Hinduism that I think is really interesting is that are all jivas are connected and essentially Brahman. Because of this, traditional Hindus cannot eat meat. This is where I kind of disagree. If we are all connected, why would the creator, Brahma, make us and other animals able to eat meat? Isn’t this our natural tendencies to hunt for meat…

In a world full of various religions, Hinduism and Buddhism are known to share a similar connection, yet carry oddly different roots. Both faiths originated from Asia, particularly in India. Since both originated from the same location, they are quite related due to the fact Buddhism evolved from Hinduism. Unlike most religions, Hinduism worships thousands of gods which come from Atman. Indians believe The Three Deity’s created this magnificent universe. The Three Deity’s consist of Dharma the…

Confucianism, Buddhism, & Hinduism Confucianism, Buddhism, and Hinduism are all religions based on ethics: the universal human assumption that peace and happiness can be gained when all people are wise and do well.

Two other religions of the Far East include Confucianism and Buddhism. These ethical religions have no gods, but advocate ethical and…

Introduction As is common in other livestock species, social organization of cattle relies on relationships of dominance throughout the herd. Dominance in a herd is attributed to several factors including animal age, body weight, body size and/or height, presence of horns, territoriality breed (if in a multi-breed herd) and physiological state (i.e. pre- or postpartum/ lactating). Social organization of herd dominant and subordinate animals have been observed as a major factor effecting several…

On the surface, every hero seems to have a unique and completely original story. The rise to stardom and difficulties that they experience on the way there seem unprecedented; however, every hero goes through the same stages of a cycle called the monomyth. From literary heroes to political or athletic figures, all heroes follow the same pattern. An important leg of this cycle that isolates the heroes from the failures is the belly of the whale. In this stage the hero separates from their old…

hopes of salvation. For the devotee, “Release from rebirth is important, but not if it means merging with the impersonal Brahman in the manner of the Upanishadic way of knowledge” . Devotion in Hinduism should not be done just for the sake of salvation. Devotion should be done through a deity that the devotee personally connects to and wishes to merge with to achieve union with Brahman. Hindus are in a constant cycle of death and re-birth, known as Moksha, until they are released into eternal…

As I go back and research native religions again, I will attempt to describe some defining characteristics, and relate how they relate to contemporary spiritual paths. When I think of native religions, I may not quite get their relationship to our everyday life. I believe this is due to our lives being more interconnected with the free flow of information technology versus the simple word of mouth that was utilized in prior times. There are numerous characteristics that we associate with…

Being at the top of the caste meant you were closer to reaching Brahman than the bottom group of people. If you do not reach Moksha, or life with Brahman, when you die, you will reincarnate back into the caste system. To move up the caste you can carry out your Dharma, or your moral duty. The tally of the good and bad you…
