After an enlightenment Buddha has delivered his first discorse to five Ascetics at Deer park, Sarnath near Varanasi, INDIA. Therefore this place is called as Birthplace of Buddhism.

The Naladiyaar, a Tamil poetic work, was written by Jain ascetics in ancient Tamil Nadu. It consists of 400 poems discussing moral values and ethical conduct.

Ascetics. There are different ways to understand asceticism. Ascetics come from different philosophical and religious backgrounds. Perhaps the best way is to focus on desire. We all constantly are awash in desires. We may want pleasure, wealth, popularity, power, health, serenity, or any number of such goods. The usual strategy people use with respect to desire is to try to obtain whatever they want and to avoid whatever they do not want. This strategy does not work well. Even if we obtain what we desire, we soon want something else. It's like being on a treadmill and going nowhere. It's really being a slave to our desires. Ascetics reverse the normal position. Instead of seeking what they desire, they instead seek its opposite! Obviously, this has never been a popular position. Because the usual strategy doesn't work well, ascetics adopt its opposite. The problem is that it's too extreme a reaction. If, for example, you never eat when you are hungry, it's true that you will soon be free from your hunger--but only because you are dead! Therefore, a middle path is the most likely route to take to achieve freedom.

what he did was that he left to the forest and changed all of his clothes for a old orange rag and sit under a tree! then he had went to the village of all the other ascetics! he had also changed his name to buddha gautama!

All Buddhists agree that the original turning of the wheel occurred when the Buddha taught the five ascetics who became his first disciples at the Deer Park in Sarnath.

Herman Hesse's novel "Siddhartha' is a fictional account of a young man as he travels to join a group of ascetics during the time of Siddhartha Gautama .

If you are asking about general people, their clothing will depend on regional and cultural aspects and hence vary a lot. It's also a matter of personal choice. However, priests, ascetics have a prescribed dress code which again may vary from region to region.

I am mimicking the lifestyle of ascetics or individuals who practice severe self-discipline and abstention from worldly pleasures. This can vary depending on the cultural or religious context, but generally involves simple living, meditation, and spiritual practices to detach oneself from material desires.

dervish The Sufi are the mystics of Islam. They follow an ascetic lifestyle in search of the truth and some believe in the possibility of obtaining a mystical union with God through ritual dancing, music, or meditation. Sufis believe that Allah reveals himself to individuals on a personal level.

An ascetic usually:

Is not married (they usually believe that this interferes with their connection with religion)

Is a hermit (in olden times, they lived in caves and in oases)

Takes their religion to the extreme (ascetics usually do what is called "appeasing", which means they do normally-weird things like fasting, vigiling, etc. to get closer to their god(s)

The father of hermit monasticism is often considered to be Saint Anthony of Egypt, also known as Saint Anthony the Great. He is credited with being one of the first known ascetics to live a solitary and contemplative life in the desert, inspiring many others to follow his path.

An Arahant (or Arahat as it is more commonly known) is someone who has become enlightened, but through the help of someone else, i.e. they could not achieve enlightenment on their own.

For example, after the Buddha first became enlightened, he taught the five ascetics that followed him about how he himself had become enlightened, and after hearing these teachings, the ascetics in turn became enlightened, but they had not done so through their own meditation etc.

it is the wheel of law and the buddist symbol The dhammachakka or 'wheel of law' symbolises Buddha's first public discourse on his doctrine and was given to five ascetics in a deer park. In iconography this is sometimes represented by the presence of his five disciples or panjawakkie (fig.) or, as in this picture, by five pedestals. Usually made from stone or sandstone (fig.). dhammachakka

Strictly speaking, St. Columba didn't take Christianity anywhere (in the sense of

introducing it). What he did do though, is leave his native Ireland to begin a revival of monasticism in western Scotland. His ministry was centred on Iona Island,

a settlement that stands today as a popular mecca for religious ascetics.

Nothing at all, just the dyes used. Also, it depends ont tradtion, since it comes from ascetics in India wearing "saffron" which is actually a spice that gives off a yellow color. Depending on how long the fabric remains dyed, it can be light yellow to a very dark orange.

When Orthodox Christians cross themselves, they use the first three fingers, representing the Holy Trinity, and the other two fingers are placed against the palm, representing the dual nature of Christ (God and Man). They begin at the forehead then go to the right shoulder, the left shoulder, and then to the abdomen. (An extended version used mainly by ascetics touches the ground after touching the left shoulder.)

The term mendicant (Latin mendicans, begging) refers to begging or relying on charitable donations, and is most widely used for religious followers or ascetics who rely exclusively on charity to survive.

The Sadducees were another Jewish sect that rejected the oral tradition, denying the resurrection of the dead and the existence of angels.

There is no definitive historical evidence to confirm whether Aryabhatta, the ancient Indian mathematician and astronomer, was a vegetarian. Historical texts and records from his time do not explicitly mention his dietary preferences. However, given the cultural context of ancient India, where many scholars and ascetics adhered to vegetarianism for philosophical or religious reasons, it is possible that he may have followed a vegetarian diet. Ultimately, his dietary habits remain speculative.

The father of western monasticism is considered to be St Anthony of Egypt, who was born in the 3rd century. He was the son of wealthy parents and inherited their money when he was only 20 years of age. However, he did not care for possessions and for 15 years went to live with various ascetics who lived on the outskirts of towns. At the age of 35 he went to live a solitary life in the desert near the present day Der el Memum. He gained a reputation for wisdom and holiness, attracting several people who wanted him to form a community of ascetics. In 305AD, the group formed what may be called the first Christian monastery with Anthony as its first leader (abbot - a derivation of the word 'abba' meaning 'father', or more accurately 'daddy'). In around 340AD, 2 of Anthony's disciples brought monasticism to Europe. Check out these websites: http://newadvent.org/cathen/01553d.htm http://newadvent.org/cathen/10459a.htm

A monk can be associated with both Hinduism and Buddhism. In Hinduism, monks may follow specific paths like sannyasa or take up vows as ascetics, while in Buddhism, monks follow the monastic code and teachings of the Buddha. Ultimately, the designation of a monk as Hindu or Buddhist depends on their religious affiliation and the tradition they follow.

Unlike monkeys and parrots, cats aren't actually known for imitative behavior, but the term is somewhat logical since "cat" has been an insult since the medieval period. Cats were associated with all sorts of evil and mischief. In an early-13th-century monastic guidebook for female monks called Ancrene Riwle, for instance, the anonymous author warns ascetics against becoming "cats of hell."

His enlightenment came from his own inner searching.
