Am c&#x103;utat ajutor pe internet &#x219;i a&#x219;a am dat peste aceast&#x103; carte scris&#x103; de o cercet&#x103;toare lankez&#x103; ce tr&#x103;ie&#x219;te acum &#xEE;n America &#x219;i pred&#x103; pe la universit&#x103;&#x21B;i de-acolo. M-a atras pentru c&#x103; are ambi&#x21B;ia de a descrie practici, concep&#x21B;ii, credin&#x21B;e religioase, a&#x219;a cum le-a deprins ea din familie &#x219;i le-a practicat de-a lungul vie&#x21B;ii. Am putut afla astfel p&#x103;rerea unei persoane aflat&#x103; &#xEE;n interiorul unei religii pe care nu o cunosc mai deloc. A fost interesant, a mai f&#x103;cut pu&#x21B;in&#x103; lumin&#x103; &#x219;i &#xEE;n capul meu. To be a Buddhist one has to take refuge in the Buddha, the dharma, and the Sangha, and take pansil (Five Precepts), commit oneself to observe them, thereby becoming a Buddhist layman. Five Precepts should be recited daily and kept always. In addition one takes part in simple ceremonies, goes to the temple on poya (full moon) days, and makes ritual offerings of food from time to time to monks, a practice that is called &#x201E;dana.&#x201D; Above all one lives a spiritual life conscious of the need to be compassionate and generous. &#x2743;&#x2743;&#x2743; Temples in Sri Lanka are not only places of worship but serve multiple purposes. poses. They are also repositories of knowledge, schools imparting knowledge, sanctuaries for the ill, both in mind and body and serve a host of other functions. &#x2743;&#x2743;&#x2743; Then again, in popular Buddhist belief, women are born to the unfortunate nate state of being women presumptively because of bad karma from past lives. &#x2026;&#xA0;It is also lyrically expressed in a popular song that Bhrahmathe the god of creation, created the woman by mixing together the most venomous omous poison of every variety of poisonous snake and added honey and milk to it. So beware; the mix may appear sweet as honey, but it may also contains deadly poison! &#x2743;&#x2743;&#x2743; Buddhists kneel before an image of the Buddha, a Bodhi tree, or some object that represents sents the Buddha, and reflect on the virtues of the Buddha. Offerings are made to the Buddha, the dharma, and the Sangha, for the purpose of ending suffering and gathering merit, for rewards in this life and in the next. Swarna Wickremeratne.
