HOW DOES THE TEACHING OF BUDDHA AFFECT THE FOLLOWERS OF HIS PHILOSOPY

How does the teaching of Buddha affects the followers of his Philosophy ? But first let me tell you who is Buddha and what is Buddhism. Buddha was who we called Sidharta Gautama or the enlighten one. While Buddhism is a religion that was originated in India by Buddha. And Buddhism includes the eight fold path and also the 4 noble truth.

Then , it affects very much , because the followers of this follow all the things in that. They believe that Sidharta Gautama is the enlighten one , and they also believe and follow the eight fold path and the four noble truth. And they follow and use this in their daily living. And the practices of that , the follower of this will follow and also do that. But some other terms , to follow this was good because people did good things , and they work on their own.

MY PERSPECTIVE OF THE 5 PILLARS OF ISLAM

MY PERSPECTIVE OF THE 5 PILLARS OF ISLAM .. Before anything else the 5 pillars of islam are

1. Shahada , which says that "There is no god but Allah , there is no prophet but Muhammad",
or the testimony of the Islam faith.

2. Salat or prayer . They pray five times a day. These prayers are only performed after ritual bathing and take place before sunrise, at noon, in the mid-afternoon, immediately after sunset, and before midnight.

3. Zakat or charity this includes that they must give some of their income to the orphanage. And the obligation to give a percentage of one's income and of the value of some property.

4. Saum or fasting , they do this in the month-long celebration of Ramadan. The saum is a fast prescribed only for healthy adult Muslim during 30 days of Ramadan.

5. Hajj or pilgrimage
. Once in a lifetime, every Muslim must make the journey to Mecca.

My perspective here , I am amazed that the Islam follower(muslim) was willing to give their income just to help the poor once , and they do and practices the FASTING , and they are so healthy because the toxins inside their body was cleanse. And they memorize what they say and what they pray. But that's the one thing , You can pray without memorizing but it was their culture to memorize prayers. And I also said to my mind , that it is cool to be a Islam follower , because you can do good things and it is in their culture but I am happy that I am a Christian because ONLY GOD CAN SAVES US , NOT IN OUR GOOD DEEDS ..

HINDUISM Vs. CHRISTIANITY

Hinduism vs. Christianity ??



Hinduism was the oldest religion in India. It has claimed 330 million gos. And Hinduism believes in many god and goddesses. They believed the gods Vishnu, Shiva or the goddess Shakti.And also Shiva(destroyer), Vishnu(sustainer), Brahman(creator),and Krishna(avatar of Vishnu). And they serves to the cults of Rama and Krishna. And they also believed in Samsara , or what we called the chain of repeated birth and death. And also the Karma , or in other term , the principle of action and consequences. And also Hinduism includes the Atman(soul) and Anatman(no soul). And Hinduism includes the caste system , and it has 4 classes , the Brahmins(priest), Kshatriyas(political leaders), Vaisyas(businesspeople) and the Sudras(slaves).



While Christianity , it is the relationship between God and you. And in Christianity they believed in ONE GOD , and they believed that JESUS CHRIST is the only way , the truth and the life. And only Jesus Christ is the only way for them to be saved. And with this , they don't serves with many cults. They only praise and worship God . And they don't memorize prayers , they can pray anytime they want. Because prayer is the way you talk to our God.




What's my point is .. In Christianity they believed in ONE God and they don't serves and praise many cults but in Hinduism they do .

Comparison of Christianity with Chinese Philosophies




The Christianity is our relations with our Lord God. And we who believes that Jesus Christ is our personal Lord and Savior , is called Christians. And we the Filipinos under the country of Philippines ,is the only Christian nation in Asia. And most of Filipinos are believers of God. And we the Christians believe in HELL and in HEAVEN .And what we call ETERNAL DEATH(the one will be granted to be go to hell, because the one who doesn't believe God) and EVERLASTING LIFE(the one will be granted to live with God , because the one who believe God). And because God love's us .. even if we committed a sin HE is willing to forgive us on what we have done .







The Chinese Philosophies are the TAOISM , CONFUCIANISM and LEGALISM. The Taoism it talks about the saying "GO WITH THE FLOW". While the Confucianism it talks about the chivalry , moderation and the golden rule(do unto others what you want them do unto you). And the Legalism it is the mixture of Confucianism and Taoism. It talks about the methods and patterns.

THE KING AND I

*personal document*





We watched the story King and I because it is our project in social studies. there was a girl named Anna and his son Louis. who went to the Siam . and lets get start the story..


Mrs. Anna Leonowens(a widowed woman) and her son Louis arrive in Siam,after the death of her husband, Anna Eeonowens moves from England to Siam with her son Louis to become a teacher for the children of the king of Siam. She finds Siamese customs to be quite different from English ones, which brings her often in conflict with the king. However, after some time they find themselves getting along much better where she has contracted to teach English to the children of the royal household. She threatens to leave when the house she had been promised is not available, but falls in love with the children. A new slave, a gift of a vassal king, translates "Uncle Tom's Cabin" into a Siamese ballet, expressing her unhappiness at being with the King. She attempts to escape with her lover. Anna and the King fall in love, but her British upbringing inhibits her from joining his harem. She is just about to leave Siam when she hears of the King's immediate death, and returns to help his son, her favorite pupil, rule his people.


>The characters and the role the portrayed<

*Deborah Kerr=as Anna Leonowens
*Yul Brynner=King Mongkut of Siam
*Rita Moreno=Tuptim
*Martin Benson=Kralahome
*Terry Saunders=Lady Thiang
*Rex Thompson=Louis Leonowens(son of Anna)
*Carlos Rivas=Lun Tha
*Patrick Adiarte=Prince Chulalongkorn
*Alan Mowbray=Sir John Hay
*Geoffrey Toone=Sir Edward Ramsay
*Dennis Bonilla=Mongkut's Twin Son
*Thomas Bonilla=Mongkut's Twin Son
*Leona Gordon=Tuptim
*Charles Irwin=Captain Orton
*William Yip=High Priest
*Yuriko=Eliza(in the play)


The Historical Significance of the film , i learned in the film is that no matter how you and others not knowing each other learn to help them to be able to understand them and to meet other persons . And love others like you love yourself.

The social relevance of the film in our country is that in the past years , we have a ruler that was called a DATU while in the film they called the Ruler a KING . and the teachers go to other places just to teach children who want to learn. And the king of Siam and Philippines have the same because they are free to have many wifes. and their kindness to other people .
