Sallekhana means:_______

Social Studies

Licemer1 [7]2 years ago
5 0

Sallekhana means <u>Holy death.</u>

According to Tattvrthastra 7.22 from the second century, "vow of willing pious dying" is what Sallekhan alludes to.

The householder then "courts voluntarily pious-death at the conclusion of his life." It involves progressively removing the physical body's and the interior passions' sources of strength as death draws near.

Death is the loss of senses and vitality at the conclusion of a person's life span as determined by their own wills.

When a tragedy, severe old age, or incurable illness affects the body and makes it difficult for the affected person to keep their vows (vrata), one should begin "courting voluntary pious-death" in order to at least preserve their vows.

Hence, option B is correct.

What did the Supreme Court say in the case of Abington School District v. Schempp? The Bible is worthy of study. Public schools
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

School District of Abington Township v. Schempp, legal case in which the U.S. Supreme Court on June 17, 1963, ruled (8–1) that legally or officially mandated Bible reading or prayer in public schools is unconstitutional. Whether required by state laws or by rules adopted by local school boards, such practices, the court held, violate the establishment clause of the First Amendment, which prohibits Congress from making any law “respecting an establishment of religion.” (The various provisions of the First Amendment, including the establishment clause, were gradually incorporated, or made binding on the states, by the Supreme Court in the first half of the 20th century through the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.)

In the passage Thomas Jefferson wrote in 1776 Do you think the statement, “All men are created equal,” meant the same thing then
rewona [7]

Answer: No

Explanation: 1779 was a very different time than it is now. People have evolved, and with that, have become smarter. In 1776 man were thought of as "surpierior to woman." In 1776 Thomas Jefferson most likely mean "men," just men. Now, we refer to the human race as "men" in an "all gender" term. Lets take Thomas Jeffersons wrighting for example, he states, "All men are created equal" meaning all <u>men</u> are created equal. But in the modern world the statment "All men are created equal" means men and woman, or "All humans are created equal."
