Answer:

First, we have to understand that the concept of "spiritual" is different from culture to culture and especially, time after time. Anyway, the "spiritual quest" in Gilgamesh can be sum up into three stages:

  • The identity of the character - Who am I?
  • The purpose of his life - What should I do?
  • The meaning of life or happiness - What fulfill me?

Gilgamesh's quest involve answer these questions, and find a way to explain himself. That's why we can describe his journey as a spiritual quest. The journey he undertakes, if separated into the Stages of Soul, then we have:

  1. Call - Gilgamesh fells that must seek the plant of immortality
  2. Search - He and Enkidu undertake an adventure to find the plant
  3. Struggle - several monsters and obstacles, but also, Enkidu's murder by the envy gods. Gilgamesh must continue the quest without his friend.
  4. Breakthrough is painful, and Gilgamesh loses the plant.
  5. He returns home with the conviction of his mortality.

Maybe the better answer to the message of this tale is that life is precious, and you must live plenty. You see, Gilgamesh was a futile and lazy king, but also vicious and violent. He was wasting his life, so he finally realizes it's importance, but also learn that loneliness is painful. He never care about anyone but him. When Enkidu dies, he understands the value of a friend.

Explanation:

The Epic of Gilgamesh is a classic tale of return carrying a message that was obtained through terrible grief and struggle. But also, a personal point of view of the human soul.

How are instrument families created?This is for music
jekas [21]

Answer:

When an Instrument is created, It gets put into a musical family based on how it is played. If you wanted to make a rubber band an instrument it would most likely be in the string family. If you were to create a new instrument that doesn't use strings, air, force, buzzing air or anything that is used in existing instruments, you would have made a new family.

Explanation:

There are five main instrument families: strings, woodwind, brass, keyboards, and percussion. Musical instruments are grouped into families based on how they make sounds. In an orchestra, musicians sit together in these family groupings. But not every instrument fits neatly into a group. For example, the piano has strings that vibrate, and hammers that strike.

In this unit, it is mentioned that in order to enter into the field of photography, most jobs require at least a high school deg
wariber [46]

Answer: Some people get a degree of some sort because it helps them get a job over someone who has only finished high school. It gives them more experience in the field, which would lead them to more success. If you compare a person who only did high school and someone with a degree in photography, the person with the degree is likely to have a better understanding of the job and know what it entails, they have experience rather than just rushing into a job, and it's not always the case that you can get the job with just a high school diploma.
