Theravada Buddhism is practiced in Thailand, Burma and Sri Lanka and focuses on achieving enlightenment as an Arahat. It believes the Buddha was an ordinary man who became enlightened. Mahayana Buddhism covers more teachings and believes in Bodhisattvas who reach enlightenment but stay to teach others. Tibetan Buddhism has been practiced for over 1000 years in difficult, high-altitude environments and uses chanting, mudras, mantras and visualization in its worship.

Vietnamese Buddhism has a long history of more than 2000 years. Its origin dates back to the 3rd century B.C., when numerous Buddhist missions were sent abroad by Emperor Asoka to disseminate Lord Buddha’s Teachings in such distant countries beyond the borders of India as those in Africa, West and Central Asia as well as South East Asia including Malaysia, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and North Vietnam, which was known then as Giao Chau ( modern Bac Ninh province ).
Vietnamese Buddhism can be roughly divided into 4 periods:
1. From its beginning in Ancient Times to the 10th century A.D.,
2. Its Golden Age from the 11th century to the 14th century,
3. Its Decline in the 15th century and its Restoration in later centuries,
4. Contemporary Vietnamese Buddhism and its Activities in the present situation.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
3. • Theravada Buddhists is the only Buddhist Diversity which exists from this
day on. BUT WHY IS IT THE ONLY GROUP?
• Just after the Buddha had died, the Bhikku’s (Monks) and Bikkuni’s (Nuns)
decided to separate into different groups and carry on the Buddha’s
teachings. However, they did change them slightly.
• After, all the groups disappeared because they were joining Theravada’s
guidance. So all the other groups were just left.
• Theravada Buddhism is practiced largely in Thailand, Burma and Sri
Lanka.
• Theravada’s believe a person who reaches enlightenment is called a
‘Arahat.’ It is easier to become a Arahat is you are a Bhikku's or a
Bikkuni's. Theravada Buddhism stresses the importance of life in Vihara
(Temple)
4. • Theravada Buddhism say that the Buddha was an ordinary man, the only
difference between him and a man was that he was Enlightened.
• WHAT DO BUDDHISTS CELEBRATE?
• One of the most important celebrations is Wesak. Buddhists think about the
birth, enlightenment and death of the Buddha.
• Buddhists will spend the day together in the temple, listening to
scriptures, listening, chanting and meditating.
5. • Mahayana covers everything, which enables more people to benefit.
Mahayana Buddhists agree that the Buddha was an enlightened human
being in history, but say that the important thing about him was his
enlightenment.
• This means the history is unimportant to Mahayanist.
• The Mahayana Buddhists that the most important difference is the belief in
Bodhisattvas. Somebody who has reached enlightenment but decides not to
go to heaven yet (to join the Buddha) but to be reincarnated and to teach
the others about Buddhism.

Bodhisattvas.
