43. Buddhism buddhism is a practical means of spiritual growth that enablesus to develop awareness, kindness and wisdom. http://www.fwbo.org/buddhism.html

Who was the Buddha What does Buddhism Teach Buddhist Festivals Articles on Buddhism and ... Buddhism in the West Buddhism is a path of practice and spiritual development leading to Insight into the true nature of life. Buddhist practices such as meditation are means of changing oneself in order to develop the qualities of awareness, kindness, and wisdom. The experience developed within the Buddhist tradition over thousands of years has created an incomparable resource for all those who wish to follow a path - a path which ultimately culminates in Enlightenment or Buddhahood. Because Buddhism does not include the idea of worshipping a creator God, some people do not see it as a religion in the normal, Western sense. The basic tenets of Buddhist teaching are straightforward and practical: nothing is fixed or permanent; actions have consequences; change is possible. Thus Buddhism addresses itself to all people irrespective of race, nationality, or gender. It teaches practical methods (such as meditation) which enable people to realise and utilise its teachings in order to transform their experience, to be fully responsible for their lives and to develop the qualities of Wisdom and Compassion. There are around 350 million Buddhists and a growing number of them are Westerners. They follow many different forms of Buddhism, but all traditions are characterised by non-violence, lack of dogma, tolerance of differences, and, usually, by the practice of meditation.

Caution! This area is under construction. BUDDHISM A TO Z A Publication of the Buddhist Text Translation Society Compiler and Editor: Ron Epstein Reviewed by: Dharma Master Heng Shun et. al. Proofreading by: Lin Chia-hui, Rita Lu, et. al. epstein@sfsu.edu Editor's note: I have made the following unfinished work available despite some misgivings. I have done so for two main reasons: 1) I think that much of the material may be of value, particularly to students and to others who are not familiar with basic Buddhist teachings; and 2) it has been many years since I have had time to work on this project, so perhaps by making it known, others can consider helping to bring it to completion. Colleagues in the Buddhist Text Translation Society are working on bringing the work to publication, and I am sure that they would welcome assistance. When the print version is published, which hopefully will be in 2002, I shall also try to make that revised version available online. Sanskrit diacritical marks are still missing, as are many of the Chinese characters. For the characters that are present, a Chinese internet viewer program is needed. (Otherwise the characters appear as unintelligible symbols.)

50. Buddhism THAILAND buddhism. The three greatest religions in the world is buddhism, Christianityand Mohammedanism. buddhism, however, is the oldest of the three. http://thaibuddhism.hypermart.net/

Like other Indian Princes, Siddhattha married Princess Yasohara Bimba, also a daughter of the King of a neighboring state, who had soon afterwards born him a son named Rahula. But unlike them, instead of allowing himself to be chained all his life to his wife and son, Siddythatha broke up all these worldly fetters. At the age of twenty-nine, he stole out of his palace one night, set out on a long solitary journey, and left all his possessions behind. The Indian king who did most in patronizing Buddhism and spreading it into foreign lands was King Asoka. Thanks to this great king, Buddhism came to be established in Suwannadhumi, where it was finally embraced by the Thai people, and under the benevolent rule of King Ramkhamhaeng of Sukhothai, Buddhism became the Thai state religion. Ever since the foundation of the Kingdom of Sukhothai, Thailand has been a stronghold of Buddhism, which has, no doubt, a great influence over the Thai people. Under its good influence, the Thais have become peace- loving nation, with unrivalled tolerance and hospitality to the people of different races and creeds. It is not too much to say that, in the past, this admirable characteristic of our nation helped a great deal in preserving our national independence while the neighboring countries all around us were losing theirs.

please direct any complaints about this site's content to the webmaster established by ben walter updated march 12, 1999 by adam fuller Lightning flashes, Sparks shower, In one blink of your eyes, You have missed seeing. If you've wandered here wanting to know what Zen is, then more than likely you will come away disappointed. This is a question that is easily asked but not easily answered. A Hindu story tells of a fish who asked of another fish: "I have always heard about the sea, but what is it? Where is it?" The other fish replied: "You live, move and have your being in the sea. The sea is within you and without you, and you are made of sea, and you will end in sea. The sea surrounds you as your own being." The only true answer is the one that you find for youself. This page on Zen was created while I was searching for a home for an on-line version of The Gateless Gate , a famous collection of koans (a koan is a short story, often a dialog between a student and a teacher, that points towards some essence of the spirit of Zen). I don't claim to be an expert on koans or on Zen, but I fell in love with the spirit of the Zen teachings and wanted to be able to share some of the koans with the Net at large. Read a koan picked at random from the text.
