Answer:

Siddharta Gautama left his princely life to solve the problem of human pain and suffering. He gave us the eightfold noble path as a way to find nirvana.

Explanation:

Siddharta studied the nature of the disease, old age, pain and death. On one occasion he met a "sadhu" (Hindu ascetic saint) and was very impressed by his calm and peace. As a result of this encounter, Siddharta Gautama decided to leave the opulent life behind and left the palace in the hope of being able to seek the truth about human existence. Siddhartha walked for approximately six years, meditating and learning from spiritual guides in northern India.

"Nirvana" is the moment in which one can escape the cycle of rebirth since birth, life and death are considered to be suffering. Nirvana cannot be achieved in this world, but if people stop worrying about the "self", a person can run away from the pain of life.

In his first sermon, Siddharta Gautama spoke of the path that will lead to the end of pain and called it the "Eightfold Path":

  • Straight vision
  • Straight intention
  • Straight speech
  • Straight action
  • Straight occupation
  • Straight effort
  • Straight attention
  • Straight concentration

Which of the following was a major advantage to the Byzantine Empire's geographic location?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer : It was on a major trade route between Europe and Asia. Constantinople, the Empire's capital, was one of the main hubs of the Silk Road (a major trade route spanning much of Asia), as well as being located on the Bosporus, the only sea route between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean.

Explanation:As for the other options:

1) It was not on an island, the empire mostly spanned Greece and Turkey. Its location was not unknown by its enemies either, the Byzantines were frequently attacked by Muslim emirates and kingdoms in modern-day Bulgaria and Serbia.

2) It was not surrounded by many friendly nations, the empire was at war with enemies on both sides of its frontier for much of its history - the main religion was Greek Orthodoxy, so neighbouring Catholic and Islamic states wanted to conquer it.

3) It did not control almost all the area of the former Roman Empire, it only controlled parts of the eastern section of the Roman Empire. The only exception to this was during the reign of the Emperor Justinian, who succeeded on conquering a large chunk of the western half. However, these territories were soon lost after his death.

alina1380 [7]

A regional approach to the Vietnam War is important because U.S.-Vietnam relations and the Vietnam War did not occur in a vacuum. The global context is also important because Cold War tensions between the U.S., the Soviet Union, and China also shaped events related to the Vietnam War.
