Merriam-Webster’s dictionary defines human nature as “the nature of humans; especially : the fundamental dispositions and traits of humans”. Though this may be true in that of a more vague and superficial nature, not all humans are the same. So, how is human nature really defined and how are people reflected on by their overall nature? Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare and Sherman Alexie's The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian are two narratives combined to portray a strong…

Our world has many different religions but we are only concentrating on Christianity and Hinduism. They have man differences and little to none similarities from different views to leaders. Many think they are more similar but I’m here to prove them wrong. The obvious difference is they are from a different worldview.

In other words, Himmler though he could escape his wrongdoings, but karma caught him regardless of where he went. On the other hand, I knew a student from my high school who has ameliorated her school progress and she felt compelled to try hookah due to peer pressure and I received an invention text to a hookah party…

similarities Hinduism and Buddhism share. Reaching Nirvana and therefore attaining freedom at last from the cycle of rebirth seems to be an utmost objective for both groups. And that the belief-that whether or not deaths and rebirths take place counts on the karmas one performed during its lifetime-is apparent in both as well. Therefore Hindu and Buddhist congregations can work their way up to reaching enlightenment, which is achieved by attaining correct knowledge and real truth.…

population control and with that comes a way that in order for a child to be born somebody must die, and a person is supposed to volunteer for that. In this story it's not about the volunteering part it is about what people think about it and the ¨karma¨ came back and they all died. In this story a claim that I could make was that society shouldn't kill in order to live.

Vaisyas, and they were herders, farmers, merchants, and craftspeople; and the lowest caste contained Sudras, or untouchables, and these were servants, slaves, and laborers. Karma was the sum of a person's actions in all of their lives, and it was what determined the caste that people were reincarnated into. In order to get good Karma, one had to follow their Dharma as closely as possible. Dharma was defined by a person’s caste, and dharma for each individual differs. For example, if you were a…

Regina (who had psychological issues), and sent three men to attack me (outside of my job at Colonial Penn Insurance Computer Department--5 Penn Center/16th Market Street). Hugh was one of the first people who introduced me to the meaning of the word—KARMA. Guess what? His no-good and no-count self (as some old Black Folks would say) was incarcerated for thinking that he could swindle nearly a million dollars from White banking institutions that loaned money for the development and…

reincarnation. If you did something bad in your lifetime, it would eventually come back to you, or you would be born again to live out your punishment.
