Hinduism and how it affect existing laws

patriot [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

El hinduismo es una religión (dharma) ampliamente practicada en el Sur de Asia. Los hinduistas creen que la suya es la religión más antigua del mundo, y se refieren a ella como «sanatana dharma» (‘religión eterna’). Los eruditos consideran al hinduismo como una fusión o síntesis de varias culturas y tradiciones indias, con diversas raíces y sin ningún fundador. Este sincretismo hinduista comenzó a desarrollarse entre el año 500 y el 300 antes de nuestra era, siguiendo las pautas de la religión védica (que existió entre el 1500 y el 700 a. C.).

El hinduismo contiene muy diversas doctrinas pero mantiene raíces comunes: rituales reconocidos, cosmología y peregrinación a lugares sagrados. Los textos hinduistas están clasificados en śruti (‘oído’ directamente de los dioses) y smriti (‘recordado’, fruto de la tradición). Estos textos discuten temas tales como teología, mitología, yoga, rituales del āgama y matemática básica para la construcción de templos y de altares, entre otros. Las principales escrituras incluyen los cuatro Vedas, los Upanishads, la Bhagavad-gītā, y las Āgama. Las fuentes de estos textos juegan un papel importante en esta religión, pero hay una fuerte tradición hinduista que cuestiona su autoridad con la finalidad de profundizar en el entendimiento de estos textos y también para desarrollar más ampliamente las tradiciones.

Temas prominentes en las creencias hinduistas incluyen el karma (acciones y consecuencias de las acciones), el samsara (la reencarnación o ciclo de nacimientos y muertes), varios tipos de yoga (prácticas para lograr moksha), y los cuatro objetivos del hombre («purusharthas», de púrusha: ‘varón’, y artha: ‘objetivos’):

dharma (religión, ética y obligaciones),

artha (prosperidad y trabajo),

kama (satisfacción de los deseos y las pasiones),

moksha (salvación espiritual),

Las prácticas hinduistas incluyen rituales como la recitación de oraciones, la meditación, las ceremonias para distintos momentos importantes en la vida de una persona (como el paso a la pubertad), festivales anuales y peregrinaciones ocasionales. Algunos hinduistas abandonan su vida social y pertenencias materiales para dedicarse a las prácticas monásticas (sanniasin).

The Battle of Brandywine, also known as the Battle of Brandywine Creek, was fought between the American Continental Army of General George Washington and the British Army of General Sir William Howe on September 11, 1777, as part of the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783). The forces met near Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. More troops fought at Brandywine than any other battle of the American Revolution.[5] It was also the second single-day battle of the war, after the Battle of Monmouth, with continuous fighting for 11 hours.[5] As Howe moved to take Philadelphia, then the American capital, the British forces routed the Continental Army and forced them to withdraw, first, to the City of Chester, Pennsylvania, and then northeast toward Philadelphia.Howe's army departed from Sandy Hook, New Jersey, across New York Bay from the occupied town of New York City on the southern tip of Manhattan Island, on July 23, 1777, and landed near present-day Elkton, Maryland, at the point of the "Head of Elk" by the Elk River at the northern end of the Chesapeake Bay, at the southern mouth of the Susquehanna River.[6] Marching north, the British Army brushed aside American light forces in a few skirmishes. General Washington offered battle with his army posted behind Brandywine Creek, off the Christina River. While part of his army demonstrated in front of Chadds Ford, Howe took the bulk of his troops on a long march that crossed the Brandywine far beyond Washington's right flank. Due to poor scouting, the Americans did not detect Howe's column until it reached a position in rear of their right flank. Belatedly, three divisions were shifted to block the British flanking force at Birmingham Friends Meetinghouse and School, a Quaker meeting house.
The Battles of Saratoga (September 19 and October 7, 1777) marked the climax of the Saratoga campaign, giving a decisive victory to the Americans over the British in the American Revolutionary War. British General John Burgoyne led a large invasion army southward from Canada in the Champlain Valley, hoping to meet a similar British force marching northward from New York City and another British force marching eastward from Lake Ontario; the goal was to take Albany, New York. The southern and western forces never arrived, and Burgoyne was surrounded by American forces in upstate New York 15 miles short of his goal. He fought two battles which took place 18 days apart on the same ground, 9 miles (14 km) south of Saratoga, New York. They both failed. Burgoyne found himself trapped by superior American forces with no relief, so he retreated to Saratoga (now Schuylerville) and surrendered his entire army there on October 17. His surrender, says historian Edmund Morgan, "was a great turning point of the war because it won for Americans the foreign assistance which was the last element needed for victory."[8]Burgoyne's strategy to divide New England from the southern colonies had started well but slowed due to logistical problems. He won a small tactical victory over General Horatio Gates and the Continental Army in the September 19 Battle of Freeman's Farm at the cost of significant casualties. His gains were erased when he again attacked the Americans in the October 7 Battle of Bemis Heights and the Americans captured a portion of the British defenses. Burgoyne was therefore compelled to retreat, and his army was surrounded by the much larger American force at Saratoga, forcing him to surrender on October 17. News of Burgoyne's surrender was instrumental in formally bringing France into the war as an American ally, although it had previously given supplies, ammunition, and guns, notably the de Valliere cannon which played an important role in Saratoga.[9]
