Compare Hindu and Buddhist beliefs about reincarnation and how one should live.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Hindus believe in polytheism, it is a worship of many gods. It is considered wrong when god and his deities are ignored and when we live a life in which we only benefit ourselves and are greedy, and do other negative actions then consequences of those actions would have to be faced. In Hinduism the soul can get reincarnated a lot of times, in which the soul would get a new body each time, the only way to break the chain of reincarnation is to attain perfection and become one with the divine creator.

In buddhism, there is not such a great relationship with a creator. 
The founder of the religion was Siddhartha Gautama who was a prince, and then put himself under a process of understanding the true nature of things and self-relization. He sat under the bodhi tree and began meditation for some time and became the enlightened one (Buddha). The ultimate goal for any buddhist is to be enlightend and achieve a state of mind that can overcome the pain of our struggles (such as death etc.). When buddhists pass away they believe that their actions determine which of the 6 realms they will be born in

What was an important outcome of the age of reason in the 17th and 18th centuries?

Answers

Answer:

When Europe entered the dark ages after the decline of the Roman Empire, most of the historic roman and Greek knowledge was lost and the religious institutions (church) began to held sway over the people, their thinking and even the political control. Religion almost controlled all aspects of the society and demanded the unquestioned loyalty and obedience.

However, during the age of enlightenment in 17th and 18th centuries, many philosophers and scholars started to think out side of the religious boundaries and the long lost roman and Greek knowledge was finally found.

This gave rise to free thinking, democracy, scientific innovation, political and economic freedom and eventually separated the church from the state and gave birth to powerful national states.
