“One of the strangest controversies in the history of Orientalism turned upon the “origin of bhakti”, as if devotion had at some given moment been a new idea and thenceforth a fashionable one. It would have been simpler to observe that the word bhakti means primarily a given share, and therefore also the devotion or love that all liberality presupposes; and so that inasmuch as one “gives God his share” (bhagam), i.e. sacrifces, one is his bhakta. Thus in the hymn, “If thou givest me my share” amounts to saying “If thou lovest me”. It has often been pointed out that the Sacrifice was thought of as a commerce between Gods and men: but not often realised that by introducing into traditional conceptions of trade notions derived from our own internecine commercial transactions, we have falsified our understanding of the original sense of such a commerce, which was actually more of the potlatsh type, a competition in giving, than like our competitions in taking.

Rufina [12.5K]

The correct answer is B) Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.

<em>The movement toward independence in India differs from that in Korea in that Korea achieve independence because Japan lost the war.</em>

The Japanese had invaded Korea and annexed it in 1910. The Korean independence leaders had to leave Korea and went to China, under the support of the Nationalist Government of China.

China became an Allied during World War II, so with the Declaration of El Cairo in 1943, Korea should be an independent nation, but the Soviet-Japanese War did not allow that to happen. The result of that confrontation divided Korea into North Korea, controlled by the Soviet Union, and South Korea, under the influence of the United States.

What scandals were Abraham Lincoln involved in?
lilavasa [31]
But for Lincoln’s death, there might have been some postwar investigations of the profiteers who supplied the Union Army with lousy war materiel. Soldiers in the field complained about leaky boots, spoiled meat, and biscuits that, when unpacked from their barrels, were crawling with maggots.

Again, but for his death, the biggest scandal of Lincoln’s career might have been the Sultana disaster.

Lincoln’s role in the explosion and sinking of the Sultana: the ship was dangerously overcrowded because Lt. Col. Reuben Hatch, quartermaster at Vicksburg, was taking kickbacks to cram as many Union soldiers as possible aboard it. Hatch already had a record of corruption when he was appointed quartermaster at Vicksburg—by none other than Lincoln. Some historians believe that Lincoln did so as a favor to Ozias Hatch, an old friend and political ally from Illinois and Reuben’s father.

But because the Sultana disaster happened so soon after Lincoln’s assassination, Congress had other priorities and little stomach for an investigation which might sully the memory of the martyred president. Besides, even if Reuben Hatch had been found responsible, he had already left the Army as quickly as possible after the disaster. So there was no possibility of his being court-martialed, and civilian courts had no jurisdiction.
