What inspires warriors to make a such personal sacrifices?
bija089 [108]

It deppends on the type of warrior but I will try to explain using the Samurai. I think with them the value of the moral is of high importance and determined their lives:

The samurai considered death as something they had to be always prepared for and thus, whenever it was needed, they would sacrifice their life "for a greater good" they knew it was something it might happen anyway. The idea of trascendence is something we have to be also aware of; They thought that what you do in this life will affect how you start the next one (reincarnation).

Let's also talk about a "negative" way of sacrifice; The seppuku, where they took their own life by cutting their stomach with a sword when they considered they didn't follow properly one of the eight most important values as we can see in any of the samurai codes or books like Hagakure or the Bushido code. these eight codes are: Justice, courage, mercy, politeness, honesty, honor, loyalty and self-control.

Not only life they would sacrifice but also money, food, social life because these things might be a distraction or a cause of desire whic leads to suffering.

Which word correctly completes the sentence? In these tournaments, one can't always be sure when __________ next match will be A
Veronika [31]
Out of your 3 possible answers, B. ones' is the correct one and I will explain why. Answer A is a contraction of one and is. When you put "one is" into the blank space you can tell that it is not right. Answer C is incorrect because when you place an apostrophe after an s it is implied that there should be another s that follows and so you do not need to put it there. This means that answer B is correct since it doesn't have the extra s.

Answer:

This story revolves around two step brothers and their mother. One of the brother Alexis lives with his father and other brother is Aaron who lives with his mother. Both of the brothers have never seen each other.

Alexis returns to meet his mother since his father is going to India for some religious matters. When Alexis reaches the airport he meets his step brother Aaron for the first time.

During their journey from airport to home Alexis shows off his seventeen scars to Aaron and tells a story for each scar. Aaron is not interested in these stories and does not believes in the stories narrated by Alexis.

Alexis has a habit of using abusive language but his mother interrupts and forbade him to use these type of words but he continues using this language without letting his mother know as he then speaks in lower tone so that his mother doesn't notices his abusive language.

They stop their car at Burger King for dinner but Alexis does not eat anything except for fries since he is vegan. When they return to car due to some issue his mother starts crying and worrying about the problem but Alexis helps his mother in fixing the issue.

He eats 2 pills and has it with coke and also offers these pills to Aaron and he has 1 of it. When they go to dining table suddenly everything seems slow to Aaron and he feels that his mother is talking in underwater. Aaron and Alexis both look at each other and laugh loudly.
