Dvinal [7]1 year ago

The greatest branch of Buddhism, known as Mahayana, is what most non-followers today refer to as "Buddhism" because of its practices and beliefs. Though that assertion has been contested,

Conventional dates for the historical Buddha's life are 566-486 B.C.E.  it emerged as a school of thought some time after 383 BCE, possibly from the earlier Mahasanghika school. After the Second Buddhist Council in 383 BCE, when the Sthaviravada school also known as the "Sect of the Elders" or "Teaching of the Elders" split from the Buddhist community due to doctrinal disagreements, the Mahasanghika ("Great Congregation") emerged. The Mahasanghika school of Buddhism was just one of many various Buddhist schisms that resulted from this first split. According to its  name, Mahasanghika claimed to speak for the majority of Buddhists.

What purpose do the Obelisk of Senusret and other obelisks serve
pickupchik [31]
Typically, obelisks were created to represent and honor Ra, the Egyptian god of the sun. In addition, people believed that gods actually inhabited the obelisks. The Obelisk of Senusret, in particular, was created to honor Senusret I of the Twelfth Dynasty of Egypt. It is the earliest obelisk still standing and intact. Hope this helps.
