Until contact with European influence, some cultures would build renewable buildings. For example, in Japan, the temples of Kyoto and Nara might be over 1,000 years old in style, but be completely rebuilt, in the same style, every few generations or so. The primary reason for this was that the materials might be wood and thatch rather than stone and tile. Other cultures might build from stone, but the jungles and forests might overgrow the buildings, as in Angkor Wat. ...

Shestov was born Lev Issakovich Schwarzmann in Kiev into a Jewish family. He obtained an education at various places, due to fractious clashes with authority. He went on to study law and mathematics at the Moscow State University but after a clash with the Inspector of Students he was told to return to Kiev, wherein he completed his studies there. Shestov's dissertation prevented him from becoming a doctor of law as it was dismissed as being too revolutionary. In 1898 he entered a circle of prominent of Russian intellectuals and artis ...

The word Dharma (Sanskrit; "धर्म" in the Devanagari script) or dhamma (Pali) is used in most or all philosophies and religions of Indian origin, the dharmic faiths, namely Hinduism (Sanatana Dharma), Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Dharma also is practiced in the Surat Shabda Yoga traditions. In its oldest form, dharman, it first appears in the Vedas. It is difficult to provide a single concise definition for Dharma (life fails to convey its connoted complexity). The word has a long and ...

According to Jain beliefs, the universe was never created, nor will it ever cease to exist. It is eternal but not unchangeable, because it passes through an endless series of cycles. Each of these upward or downward cycles is divided into six world ages (yugas). The present world age is the fifth age of one of these "cycles", which is in a downward movement. These ages are known as "Aaro" as in "Pehela Aara" or First Age, "Doosra Aara" or Second Age and so on. The last one is the "Chhatha Aara" or Sixth Age. ...

The philosophic and theological diversity of Hinduism is limitless, being nurtured by the fundamentally eclectic and liberal universalism that is its defining characteristic. It is impossible to summarize all the schools of thought and inquiry produced or harboured over the millennia by the peoples of India.

After this comes two units of three verses each, in which the process of experiencing that Reality Ultimate is discussed in a complicated paradoxical language. The first unit says: “They who worship Ignorance go into a blinding darkness; they who worship Knowledge go into an even greater darkness. There are other things which have been said for Knowledge. Others say something else about Ignorance. This is how we have heard from great people (dhiras) who have talked about these things after good counsel and enquiry.

“The Self pervades all. Radiant is He, bodiless, without scar of imperfection, without bone or flesh, pure, untouched by evil. The Seer, the Thinker, the One who is above all, the Self-Existent – he it is that has established perfect order among objects and beings from beginningless time”. This is Verse #8. But the English translation does not do justice to the original. Each word in this verse is a profound commentary on the Ultimate. The very first word paryagaat has in it two words pari, indicating omnipresence ...

Lev Shestov - The Philosophy of Despair. Shestov's philosophy is, at first sight, not a philosophy at all: it offers no systematic unity, no coherent set of propositions, no theoretical explanation of philosophical problems. Most of Shestov's work is fragmentary: with regard to the form (he often used aphorisms), the style (which is more web-like than linear, and more explosive than argumentative) as well as to the content. He seems to contradict himself on every page, and even seeks the paradox. This is b ...
