Which statement best illustrates Siddhartha Gautama’s view toward wealth?

History
1 answer:
34kurt2 years ago
3 0

The BEST answer is:

d. Gautama believed that he could best help others by giving up his wealth.

While there certainly is truth to answer C (as selected by the other respondent), Siddhartha Gautama's view toward wealth was more than a passive realization that it did not bring happiness. Even more so it was an active view that translated into action, giving up one's wealth to benefit others. He said of wealth, "A kind man who makes good use of wealth is rightly said to possess a great treasure; but the miser who hoards up his riches will have no profit."

Siddhartha Gautama is known as "The Buddha" (the "Enlightened One"). The details about his life history are debated by scholars, but we know the historical personage of Siddhartha Gautama as a teacher in ancient India around the 5th or 6th century BC. Buddhism is patterned after his teachings.

What negative effects did East Germany experience after reunification? Check all that apply.
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The East German economy has struggled with anger at reunification costs ; growth in unemployment ; many business closings ; and slow economic growth since reunification.  West Germany still subsidizes many services and social programs for East Germany. There was a rapid deindustrialization that caused a high level of unemployment especially among women in East Germany in the years after reunification and 1.3 people apparently migrated West, while less than 400000 people migrated to East Germany (Fleischhacker, 1995).

Explanation:

Many analysts from East Germany say that their economy has suffered because of the way that privatization was implemented at the moment of reunification. The government used a shock-therapy style of economic measures which gave many East German enterprises little time to adapt. Scholars say that alternatives like a slow transition would have made it easier for some enterprises to better adapt  (Roesler, 2010). There continues to be a lot of wealth and income inequality between residents of the former East and West Germany.  Even now three decades after reunification there is a notable disparity between the assets of East and West Germans. The average adult in what was formerly West Germany has assets valued at 94,000 euros while the average for their adult counterpart in what was formerly East Germany is just over 40,000 euros in assets according to a study by Germany’s DIW think tank published in 2014.

Arisa [49]
1) Europeans rediscovered works from ancient Greece & Rome and worked from those ideals

2) Secular curiosity emerges (not religious oriented, especially in art)

3) The printing press allows ideas to spread easily; Humanism could also be a key contributing factor to the start of the Renaissance

When the amount of output produced by a given amount of inputs increases, the MOST LIKELY result is A) overall productivity rise
Roman55 [17]

Answer: A) overall productivity rises.

Productivity refers to the measure of efficiency in production. It is a crucial factor in measuring the performance of firms and nations.

Productivity is expressed as <em>the ratio of output to input in a production process</em> (output per unit of input). This means that if the amount of output that is produced increases while the input is maintained at the same level, the overall productivity increases as well.
