...Sir Mohan Lal Karma is a short story written by the well-known Indian writer Khushwant Singh. The story was published in 1950; however the setting takes place during the 1920-30’s, when India was colonized by the British Empire. The heart of the story is the main character Sir Mohan Lal. He is a middle-aged Native Indian, and belongs to the upper class. He is a very arrogant and complacent man, yet extremely conscious about the image he wants to transmit towards the public and the kind of people he wants to appeal (the British). He worships the British culture deeply. In every fashion he tries to emulate them by wearing their clothes, speaking their language, reading their newspaper and using their products. He hungers for the verification on his manners and English-like demeanor. For example, long before getting on the train he had strategically planned out, how to gain the Englishmen’s attention. His job as a vizier and barrister also entails him to convene with a lot of Englishmen and follow the certain manners he acquired from his five years abroad. On the contrary to Sir Lal’s adoration for the British culture, he abhors his own origin and wants to distance himself as far from it as possible. He has a contemptuous attitude towards all Indians and their culture. He absolutely loathes everything about them and strongly believes that all of them are “inefficient”, “dirty”, and “indifferent”. Unfortunately Sir Lal is married to Lachmi who is the complete opposite of him....

...The most widely known English translation of the Kama Sutra was privately printed in 1883. It is usually attributed to renowned orientalist and author Sir Richard Francis Burton, but the chief work was done by the pioneering Indian archaeologist, Bhagwanlal Indraji, under the guidance of Burton's friend, the Indian civil servant Forster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot, and with the assistance of a student, Shivaram Parshuram Bhide.[16] Burton acted as publisher, while also furnishing the edition with footnotes whose tone ranges from the jocular to the scholarly. Burton says the following in its introduction: It may be interesting to some persons to learn how it came about that Vatsyayana was first brought to light and translated into the English language. It happened thus. While translating with the pundits the 'Anunga Runga, or the stage of love', reference was frequently found to be made to one Vatsya. The sage Vatsya was of this opinion, or of that opinion. The sage Vatsya said this, and so on. Naturally questions were asked who the sage was, and the pundits replied that Vatsya was the author of the standard work on love in Sanscrit[sic] literature, that no Sanscrit library was complete without his work, and that it was most difficult now to obtain in its entire state. The copy of the manuscript obtained in Bombay was defective, and so the pundits wrote to Benares, Calcutta and Jaipur for copies of the manuscript from Sanscrit libraries in those places. Copies having been obtained...

...Aphrodite: goddess of love I am a big fan of the movie Troy and so many more movies around the 13th BC. I also can’t deny that Brat Pitt is another factor why I like that movie so much. I know the very basic details about the tragic story of Troy. I didn’t know that one of the famous goddess was also involved in this historical event. I only know about this piece of information while researching about all the goddesses in the Greek Mythology. Who was it that helped Paris in kidnapping Helen? In this short paper, I will talk about Aphrodite, goddess or beauty, love, and fertility. Frist of all, most of gods and goddesses had multiple incredible stories about how they were born. Aphrodite is no different. The most popular version of her birth is how she were form from the sea-foam after the genital of the sky-god Ouranos got castrated and fell into the ocean. "Out of the sea was rising lovely-crowned Kypris, foam-blossoms still upon her hair; and round her hovered smiling witchingly Himeros (Desire), and danced the Kharites (Graces) lovely-tressed"( Quintus Smyrnaeus, Fall of Troy 5. 72 ff (trans. Way) (Greek epic C4th A.D.), "STORIES OF APHRODITE 1 : Greek Mythology." STORIES OF APHRODITE 1: Greek Mythology. Web. 21 Mar. 2015. .) Another version is Aphrodite is the daughter of Zeus and Okeanis Titanis Dione. We all love the first version of her story much better because it sounded a lot more unbelievable and almost impossible. It is mythology after all, the more...

...Identity1 In the Hindu religion they treat all living beings from animals to the tiniest creatures with great respect. “According to Hinduism animals are not inferior creatures, but manifestations of God on the lower scale of evolution compared to man, each containing a spark of divine, capable of becoming human and achieving salvation like the rest of us.” In the Biblical worldview humans are more important than animals and one reason is that we use them for food and clothing. Question of Meaning/Purpose. The purpose of life in the Hindu worldview is to perform the proper sacrifices to the Gods. The Hindu religion has four universal goals or purusharthas that shape the meaning of life which are dharma, artha, kama, and moksha. Dharma is harmony, Artha is wealth and power, Kama is pleasure, and Moksha is liberation. Our purpose in the Biblical worldview is to know God and have a relationship with him through Jesus Christ. 263 words...

...good and evil, existence of one or multiple Gods, conceptions of God, the soul, and the afterlife. Relating to religion, life means to know and understand the mystery of God; to love and glorify God by enjoying Him forever, be at the heart of the Divine; to have a pure soul and know oneself, others and the will of heaven. Hinduism In hinduism, life's meanings are defined four goals (aims) of human life which are called the four purusharthas. The four purusharthas are: Dharma, Artha, Kāma and Moksha. In Sanskrit, ‘Dharma’ means one's destiny or purpose. In general, it refers to one's vocation or career. Dharma also means righteousness, duty-conscious, being virtual, living morally and ethically at all times. Artha is prosperity, wealth, money or success in worldly pursuits. In addition to leading a virtuous life that meets specific social and personal obligations, a Hindu should strive for success, in any given activity through lawful means within the bounds of dharma. Kama means the physical, emotional, and intellectual desires of a person. As stated in bhagavad gita, “he who performs his prescribed duties out of desire in the right manner will obtain the fulfilment of all the desires and reach the deathless state”. Moksha, the ultimate end of every Hindu's life, can be understood in a variety of ways: liberation from rebirth, enlightenment, Self-realization, or union with God. This is considered to be the highest purpose of life. A person who overcomes desires...

...The Baldwin-Wallace College Journal of Research and Creative Studies, Fall 2007, 1(1):12-24 Performance of the South Korean Automobile Industry in the Domestic and United States Markets Robert R. Ebert1 and Mariel Montoney2 1 2 Department of Economics, Baldwin-Wallace College, 275 Eastland Rd., Berea, OH 44017; Economics Program, Baldwin-Wallace College, 275 Eastland Rd., Berea, OH 44017 The South Korean automobile industry has undergone considerable growth since its inception in the 1960s. That growth was initially driven by domestic demand. Since the Asian financial crisis of 1997, however, production increases for the South Korean automobile industry have been primarily a function of export sales. The research presented here explores changes in the structure of demand in its two principal marketsdomestic South Korean market and the United States market. Two models of demand are developed- one for each of the markets. Several macro economic variables are identified that have a statistically significant relationship with the demand for automobiles in each of the markets. An interesting finding of the research is that the factors apparently driving demand are different in the two markets suggesting the structure of automobile demand in South Korea differs significantly from the demand for that country’s vehicles in the United States. A major challenge facing the South Korean automobile industry is how to utilize its capacity when confronted with...
