<h3><u>Who was Buddha?</u></h3>
  • Ancient Indian monk and spiritual guide Gautama Buddha lived in the sixth or fifth century BCE.
  • Buddhists venerate him as the creator of Buddhism and a fully enlightened man who revealed the way to Nirvana—the escape from ignorance, craving, rebirth, and misery.
  • According to Buddhist legend, the Buddha was born to wealthy Shakya clan members in Lumbini, Nepal, but left home early to live a nomadic monastic life.
  • He spent his life begging, practising asceticism, and practising meditation before becoming enlightened in Bodh Gaya. After that, the Buddha travelled the lower Gangetic plain, teaching and establishing monastic orders.

Buddha advocated for a moderate path between indulgent sensuality and extreme asceticism, one that involved ethical instruction and contemplative techniques like effort, attention, and jhana.

In Kushinagar, he passed away and attained nirvana. Since then, many Asian communities and religions have honoured the Buddha.

kakasveta [241]

Pedro is a Keynesian economist and argues that in a downturn, state intervention is the key for economic recovery.

Keynesians believe that GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is positively influenced by aggregate demand. Hence, in order to boost GDP growth after a downturn,  the state should step in the economy by increasing public expenditure. This will help to create job positions, increase the disposable income of households and therefore increase overall demand for goods and services.

If more goods and services are demanded, the same cycle restarts as firms would hire more staff in order to increase production to a greater extent to meet the new necesities. The more people who is employed, the more income avilable to continue increasing private expenditure and investments, which in turn GDP and bring economic growth.

<em><u>To make it clearer, the following is the GDP formula for a certain time period</u></em>

<em>GDP = Private Consumption + Private investment + Public expenditure + Exports - Imports </em>
