Buddhism Myths Ability
332 words
The study of Zen, it seems, became a main
preoccupation of the Japanese, something never
seen elsewhere. Embracing it with gusto, allowing
it to mingle with old tales and myths, the
Japanese raised Buddhism to a new height. Students
of the ways of Buddhism found they could, if
diligent, attain a measure of spiritual freedom or
self-fulfillment, which may well be lacking in
other forms of thinking, certainly in religions.
Though I doubt very seriously that any become
deities (or powerful in the w...

Voltaire's Candide: "All is Not for the Best"
Voltaire's Candide is the story of an innocent
man's experiences in a mad and evil world, his
struggle to survive in that world, and his need to
ultimately come to terms with it. All people
experience the turmoil of life and must overcome
obstacles, both natural and man-made, in order to
eventually achieve happiness. In life, "man must

anxiety" and the "let...

American Advertising everyone in America wants to
attain the American dream. I ask myself, however,
is this a dream of equality, or rather a bettering
of ones self to become a greater individual who
may rise above the crowd. Whatever the case,
advertisers manipulate each person into desiring
this infamous dream. They do this by giving value
to our insecurities and by giving us a sense of

Eating Disorders Feel Comfortable

Throughout history and through a cross-section of
cultures, women have transformed their appearance
to conform to a beauty ideal. Ancient Chinese
aristocrats bound their feet as a show of
femininity; American and European women in the
1800 s cinched in their waists so tightly, some
suffered internal damage; in some African cultures
women continue to wear plates in their lower lips,
continually stretching the skin to receive plates
of larger size. The North American ideal of beauty

F Scott Fitzgerald American Dream

Man dreams of living the life of the elite social
class and of the power and admiration inherent
within. F. Scott Fitzgerald comes to terms with
this American dream in The Great Gatsby, a novel
about social life in the 1920 s. The social
hierarchy of the times plays a very important role
in this novel. Here Fitzgerald illustrates three
specific social classes: old money, new money, and
lower class, with old money and new money taking
center stage. Gatsby himself personifies new
money; he made hi...

Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Israel

Laissez Faire Progressive Era
893 words
Assuming that the burden of proof is ultimately on
the writer, I contend that the period from
approximately 1900 until the United States'
intervention in the war, labeled the "progressive"
era by virtually all historians, was really an era
of conservatism. Moreover, the triumph of
conservatism that I will describe in detail
throughout this book was the result not of any
impersonal, mechanistic necessity but of the
conscious needs and decisions of specific men and
institutions. There were any num...

Sikhism is the world's fifth largest religion.
Sikhism is one of the younger faiths of the world,
as compared with religions like Hinduism,
Buddhism, Judaism, Christianity or Islam. It is a
monotheistic faith, preaching the existence of
only one God, and teaching ideals that may be
universally accepted today and in the future:
honesty, compassion, humility, piety, social
commitment, and most of all tolerance for other
religions. Sikhism is free from any claims and
dogmas. To attain salvation, Si...

Length Of Time Domestic Violence

As observed in the courtroom I have found myself
with many mixed emotions on what I have witnessed.
These mixed emotions involve the operations of the
justice system and how it affects the accused and
the victim. It also makes a person wonder how the
legal system operates on a basis of repeated
domestic violence acts. I appeared in court to
observe a domestic violence hearing. It involved a
young individual who has a lot of physical
violence patterns and who has repeatedly disobeyed
his probatio...

Fear And Pity True Reason

Oedipus fulfills the function of a tragedy, and
arouses fear and pity in the highest degree. But
unfortunately a modern reader, coming to the
classic drama not entirely for the purpose of
enjoyment, will not always surrender himself to
the emotional effect. He is correct to worry about
Greek fatalism and the justice of the downfall of
Oedipus, and, finding no satisfactory solution for
these difficulties, loses half the pleasure that
the drama was intended to produce. Aristotle finds
the end of h...

control that failed the Jews. The Jews did not
realize the Nazis ultimate goal. Without that
information, the Jews did not understand the need
to fight back. Why then, did the Jews not
understand that they were to be killed? First,
they felt, as all people do, that it is not normal
for people to be killed for no reason. They had
done nothing wrong, so why should they worry about
being killed? Secon...

Child Who Left His Family Child Who Left Conditioned

The behavioral perspective, pioneered by Ivan
Pavlov and B. F. Skinner, contends that
reinforcers, both positive and negative, determine
the actions of an animal or individual. Since
cultural values at least partly define what is
perceived as a reward and to have value, culture
must have a large effect on behavior, and, of
course, its differences. Pavlov, famous for his
experiments with dogs, found that dogs could be
classically conditioned to salivate at the sound
of a bell. An unconditioned re...

Achieve This Goal Values Of Society

Robert Merton strongly believes that the problem
of deviants is created by a social structure that
presents the same goals to all its members without
giving them equal access to achieve them.
According to Merton it is this lack of integration
between what the culture expects and what the
structure permits that causes deviant behaviour
(Robert Merton Website). Merton points out that
there are particular goals which are strongly
emphasised by society. Society puts a strong
emphasis on the correct ...
