Book Synopsis Karma, Nirvana and Reincarnation in Buddhism and Hinduism. by : L. de L. de la Vallée Poussin
Download or read book Karma, Nirvana and Reincarnation in Buddhism and Hinduism. written by L. de L. de la Vallée Poussin and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primitive meaning of this celebrated word, Nirvana, seems to be twofold: on the one hand, 'becoming cool, cooling'; on the other hand, 'blowing out, ' 'extinguishing.' There is a nirvana of a man who is thirsty as well as of a candle. Hence two directions in the evolution of the religious or philosophical meaning of the word. Cooling, refreshment, the refreshment of a man who is suffering, the cooling of a man who is hot with desire, comfort, peace, serenity, bliss. Also extinction, detachment or extinction of the fire of the passions, negative bliss or extinction of suffering, annihilation or extinction of individual existence. Each metaphor is apt to convey two distinct ideas. On the one hand, Nirvana is Sanctity (arhattva). For a Saint (arhat) has become cold (sitibhuta), as he is no more burned by the fire of passions, and he has extinguished this fire. On the other hand, Nirvana is the ultimate end of a man, the state of a Saint after death. For Nirvana may be cooling of suffering-an eternal refreshment-or extinction of existence.

Download or read book The Power & Intelligence of Karma & Reincarnation written by Dharma and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the distant past, life was pretty harsh - most work was manual labor, medicine was primitive and there was little law & order - the perfect opening to religions that promised an easy afterlife. Life was mocked as sin, "up there" awaited a magical land of plenty. These religions kept us weak, God made in the image of the local King reduced followers down to slaves/servants, down on their knees begging for mercy and seeking pity. This book asks for a paradigm change - are we still weak? Do we still think we can just run away from problems? This book is for the Strong, the Warrior, for those who see Life as a Great Gift from God, God as our Teacher, as we build the paradise right here on Earth and make Her Proud of us! Create & build a great Future for all life on earth. Only Reincarnation gives us such an opportunity.
