    Moksha And Nirvana

    • 1055 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Moksha and Nirvana Both Hindu and Buddhist beliefs of reincarnation end with the ultimate goal of ending that cycle. Moksha is a final resting place that is attained by living a good life through the five caste levels. Moksha is basically the ending of the cycle of birth and rebirth while the soul lives on. Nirvana is the highest level of enlightenment a Buddhist can receive. Adhering to the various phases of the Noble eight Fold Path to eliminate suffering, one will reach the final phase, nirvana. Nirvana is also the end of the cycle of birth and rebirth but you become "extinct." The idea of nirvana is difficult for any American to fully understand or even try to explain. We are a society that has maybe too much emphasis on the present day and material possessions and this makes it so hard to understand that this goal is compared to a flame flickering out. Nirvana is the ultimate goal of the Buddhist and it is perfect liberation, freedom, peace, and tranquility (Rahula, p.43). It is also the end of the thoughts of lust, anger, and delusion. In contrast to Hinduism, one does not have to wait until death to reach this goal. Nirvana can be realized in the present life based on ones intuitive knowledge. It is realized by understanding the teaching of Siddhartha Guatama and practicing it carefully, consistently and completely through the Noble Eight Fold Path. The Noble Eight Fold Path is Right Understanding, Thought, Speech, Action, Livelihood, Effort, Mindfulness, and Concentration (Rahula, p.45). Nirvana has to be realized by people within themselves. You are not blessed with nirvana but you bless yourself with nirvana. When Buddhists achieve nirvana it does not mean they are entering into a heaven but simply breaking the cycle of incarnation by becoming enlightened on what it really is. Thinking as an American you could say nirvana is nothing because you cannot see, hear, smell, taste, or touch it with your senses. You have to realize it with your mind.…

    In the previous section of reading, the idea of moksha was introduced. moksha is achieved when release from the cycle of rebirth occurs. The ability to reach moksha is dependent on the individuals ability to be impelled by the law of karma. According to the Hindu scripture, there are three ways to Liberation. The primary path is the way of action. The way of action is associated with yoga, more specifically karma yoga. The way of action is dependent on the idea of truly selfless duty without reservation. In contrast, some may argue that the accumulation of any karma is not good. You may ask, how is it that devotion to others has negative connotations. The explanations is that when you receive karma you must be reborn to experience it. This idea explains the transition that Hindu’s make in their old age. They stop engaging in activities that would yield any form of karma. Their hope is that there lack of action will help them become one…

    Hinduism and Buddhism both came into existence from India. According to S. Rahdhakrishnan, “Buddhism, in its origin is an offshoot of Hinduism.” (Buddhism & Hinduism, 2007) This is due to the fact that Buddhism was started around 2,500 years ago by Siddhartha Gautama who was originally brought up in a Hindu family and was later called “the Buddha” by his followers. (Teece, 2003) Hinduism has been around for well over 5,000 years and was not started by a single historical figure. Hinduism and Buddhism appear to be two different religions that share an interesting relationship leading them to have many similarities and differences.…

    I attended the Indian Hindu Sikh Religious, there is a teacher there that agreed to meet with me and my friend. According to my friends, friend temples are formed so Hindus can have social time and gather together. I have put in the report questions that I asked the practicing priests and the answers that I received from them. I have learned alot from the temple and the priests who were available when we went there. I do love the way they look to nature and see God. Because I honestly feel that way myself I feel that God is everywhere and when I say that in my mind I beleive he is within every living thing we are all just gifts from God. I understand more of the statues and the 300 million Gods that make up the Hinduism religion that I at one time did not understand at all. They believe that the statue is just a statue that a man made but it helps them focus. When I heard them talking about making their mind focus by consentrating on a statue it made me think of having a baby. During the labor part of birth they often will tell you to bring something or look at something to keep your mind focused to concentrate on the pushing and birthing and not the pain. So, this was easier for me to associate this with the statue and mind focusing and understanding how that works. I loved how they wanted to be clean and keep away unclean things it is interesting especially in my religion it talks about cleaniness is next to godliness. I enjoyed my time with the people at the temple and enjoyed learning more about the this religion and the culture that surrounds it. Below you will see the questions I asked when I visited the Temple I tried to write as close to the answers they gave me.…
