Answer:
Questions as to what ancient Mesopotamian civilization did and did not accomplish, how it influenced its neighbors and successors, and what its legacy has transmitted are posed from the standpoint of modern civilization and are in part colored by ethical overtones, so that the answers can only be relative. Modern scholars assume the ability to assess the sum total of an “ancient Mesopotamian civilization”; but, since the publication of an article by the Assyriologist Benno Landsberger on “Die Eigenbegrifflichkeit der babylonischen Welt” (1926; “The Distinctive Conceptuality of the Babylonian World”), it has become almost a commonplace to call attention to the necessity of viewing ancient Mesopotamia and its civilization as an independent entity.
Ancient Mesopotamia had many languages and cultures; its history is broken up into many periods and eras; it had no real geographic unity, and above all no permanent capital city, so that by its very variety it stands out from other civilizations with greater uniformity, particularly that of Egypt. The script and the pantheon constitute the unifying factors, but in these also Mesopotamia shows its predilection for multiplicity and variety. Written documents were turned out in quantities, and there are often many copies of a single text. The pantheon consisted of more than 1,000 deities, even though many divine names may apply to different manifestations of a single god. During 3,000 years of Mesopotamian civilization, each century gave birth to the next. Thus classical Sumerian civilization influenced that of the Akkadians, and the Ur III empire, which itself represented a Sumero-Akkadian synthesis, exercised its influence on the first quarter of the 2nd millennium BCE. With the Hittites, large areas of Anatolia were infused with the culture of Mesopotamia from 1700 BCE onward. Contacts, via Mari, with Ebla in Syria, some 30 miles south of Aleppo, go back to the 24th century BCE, so that links between Syrian and Palestinian scribal schoolsand Babylonian civilization during the Amarna period (14th century BCE) may have had much older predecessors. At any rate, the similarity of certain themes in cuneiform literature and the Hebrew Bible, such as the story of the Flood or the motif of the righteous sufferer, is due to such early contacts and not to direct borrowing.
Explanation:
Hindus believe in <span>polytheism, it is a worship of many gods. It is considered wrong when god and his deities are ignored and when we live a life in which we only benefit ourselves and are greedy, and do other negative actions then consequences of those actions would have to be faced. In Hinduism the soul can get reincarnated a lot of times, in which the soul would get a new body each time, the only way to break the chain of reincarnation is to attain perfection and become one with the divine creator.
In buddhism, there is not such a great relationship with a creator.
The founder of the religion was Siddhartha Gautama who was a prince, and then put himself under a process of understanding the true nature of things and self-relization. He sat under the bodhi tree and began meditation for some time and became the enlightened one (Buddha). The ultimate goal for any buddhist is to be enlightend and achieve a state of mind that can overcome the pain of our struggles (such as death etc.). When buddhists pass away they believe that their actions determine which of the 6 realms they will be born in
