Religion
There is no universally accepted definition of religion, only various attempts at definition. Roughly, substantialist and functionalist approaches can be distinguished. Substantialist definitions try to determine the essence of religion, for example, in its relation to the sacred, the transcendent or the absolute; according to Rüdiger Vaas and Scott Atran, for example, the relation to the transcendent represents the central difference to the non-religious.
Functionalist concepts of religion attempt to define religion on the basis of its community-creating social role. In many cases, the definition is made from the perspective of a particular religion, for example, Christianity. One of the most famous and often quoted definitions of religion comes from Friedrich Schleiermacher and reads: Religion is "the feeling of the schlechthinnige dependence on God". The definition from the point of view of a Jesuit is: "Worship of spiritual personal beings, standing apart from and above the visible world, on whom one believes oneself to be dependent and whom one somehow seeks to tune favorably."
A substantialist definition, for example, according to the Protestant theologian Gustav Mensching, reads: "Religion is an experiential encounter with the sacred and a responding action of the human being determined by the sacred. "According to the religious scholar Peter Antes, religion is understood to mean "all ideas, attitudes and actions toward that reality which people accept and name as powers or might, as spirits or also demons, as gods or God, as the sacred or absolute, or finally also only as transcendence."
Michael Bergunder divides the term into Religion 1 and Religion 2. Religion 1 can be understood as the attempts of religious studies to define the term precisely. Religion 2, on the other hand, refers to the everyday understanding of religion. However, there are interactions between these two definitions, so that a clear distinction cannot be made. Bergunder historicizes the concept of religion and therefore criticizes it at the same time. Thus, there is a difference in the understanding of religion on the meta-level (true philosophically) and in the experience (anthropologically)
Buddha Siddhartha Gautama Awakened One
Siddhartha Gautama (in Sanskrit: Siddhārtha Gautama (सिद्धार्थ गौतम) or in Pali Siddhattha Gotama, formerly in German Gotamo Buddho; according to the corrected long chronology born 563 BC. BC in Lumbini; died 483 BC in Kushinagar) taught the Dharma (literally the teaching) as the Buddha (literally the Awakened One) and as such became the founder of Buddhism. He is generally referred to as "the historical Buddha." Buddha (Sanskrit, m., बुद्ध, buddha, literally: "the awakened one," Chinese: pinyin fó, Japanese: butsu, Vietnamese: phật or bụt) in Buddhism refers to a person who has experienced bodhi (literally: "awakening") and is the honorific name of the Indian religious founder Siddhartha Gautama, whose teachings founded the world religion of Buddhism.In Buddhism, a Buddha is understood to be a being who has achieved purity and perfection of his mind by his own strength and has thus attained a boundless development of all potentials existing in him: perfect wisdom (Prajna) and infinite, but at the same time also desireless, compassion (Karuna) with all living things. He has already realized Nirvana during his lifetime and is therefore, according to Buddhist conviction, no longer bound to the cycle of reincarnation (Samsara). The awakening is of transcendent nature, cannot be grasped with the mind, is "deep and unfathomable like the ocean", which is why this experience defies description with linguistic terms. Its quality cannot be comprehended by people who have not had this experience themselves.A Buddha experience occurs very rarely according to the Buddhist tradition; therefore, an age in which a Buddha appears is a "fortunate age." This is because there are very many "dark" ages in which no Buddha appears and therefore no teaching of final liberation can be followed. The Buddha of the next age is said to be Maitreya, while Kashyapa, Kanakamuni and Dipamkara were three Buddhas of the past. Tantric Buddhism (Vajrayana) in particular knows a plethora of Buddhas, also called transcendent Buddhas, Adibuddhas (five Dhyani Buddhas) or Tathagatas.Product Number: N07318Product Name:

Elephant Ornament
Elephants (Elephantidae) are a family from the order of proboscideans. The family represents the largest currently living land animals and also includes the only representatives of the order group still living today. Three recent species are distinguished: the African elephant, which inhabits the largely open landscapes of sub-Saharan Africa; the forest elephant, also native to Africa but largely restricted to tropical rainforests; and the Asian elephant, found in southern and southeastern Asia, which uses a variety of landscapes. All elephants are distinguished by their trunk, a muscular organ formed by the fusion of the nose with the upper lip, and by their tusks formed from the upper incisors. Other striking features are found in the massive physique with columnar legs and the gray, sparsely hairy skin. Elephants are social animals, living in family groups of female individuals and their offspring. They roam more or less large action areas in search of food. The size of the action areas and the extent of the migratory movements depend on local conditions such as the landscape used and the resulting food supply. Males, on the other hand, either live solitary lives or form into bachelor groups. Communication among themselves, both within and between the various family groups, takes place in several ways. These include odors, which are conveyed via feces, urine, and glandular secretions, tactile contacts with the proboscis, among other things, various body gestures, and a rich vocalization, in which variable rumbling sounds in the low frequency range are to be emphasized. Elephants played a significant role in human social development and history. They were initially hunted or used as a food resource and source of raw materials, found their way into art and culture more than 30,000 years ago, and also gained great importance in later times with the settling down and the emergence of various advanced civilizations. Only the Asian elephant entered as a tamed animal permanently in the service of man. It functioned at first as a beast of burden and work animal, later it was used in wars and was regarded as a sign of extraordinary size and power.Product Number: N07272Product Name: ElephantOrnamentThis design comes with the following sizes:Size: 7.39"(w) X 4.85"(h) (187.8mm X 123.2mm)Size: 7.43"(w) X 4.87"(h) (188.8mm X 123.8mm)Size: 7.47"(w) X 4.91"(h) (189.8mm X 124.6mm)Size: 7.55"(w) X 4.95"(h) (191.8mm X 125.8mm)Size: 7.79"(w) X 5.11"(h) (197.8mm X 129.8mm)Size: 7.91"(w) X 5.19"(h) (200.8mm X 131.8mm)Size: 7.94"(w) X 5.21"(h) (201.8mm X 132.4mm)Size: 8.06"(w) X 5.29"(h) (204.8mm X 134.4mm)Size: 8.22"(w) X 5.39"(h) (208.8mm X 137.0mm)Size: 8.26"(w) X 5.42"(h) (209.8mm X 137.6mm)Size: 8.30"(w) X 5.45"(h) (210.8mm X 138.4mm)Size: 8.34"(w) X 5.47"(h) (211.8mm X 139.0mm)Size: 8.50"(w) X 5.57"(h) (215.8mm X 141.6mm)Size: 8.57"(w) X 5.62"(h) (217.8mm X 142.8mm)Size: 8.61"(w) X 5.65"(h) (218.8mm X 143.6mm)Size: 8.77"(w) X 5.76"(h) (222.8mm X 146.2mm)Size: 8.85"(w) X 5.80"(h) (224.8mm X 147.4mm)Size: 8.89"(w) X 5.83"(h) (225.8mm X 148.2mm)Size: 9.05"(w) X 5.94"(h) (229.8mm X 150.8mm)Size: 9.13"(w) X 5.98"(h) (231.8mm X 152.0mm)Size: 9.28"(w) X 6.09"(h) (235.8mm X 154.8mm)Size: 9.36"(w) X 6.14"(h) (237.8mm X 156.0mm)Size: 9.40"(w) X 6.17"(h) (238.8mm X 156.6mm)Size: 9.56"(w) X 6.28"(h) (242.8mm X 159.4mm)Size: 9.76"(w) X 6.40"(h) (247.8mm X 162.6mm)Size: 9.83"(w) X 6.46"(h) (249.8mm X 164.0mm)Size: 9.95"(w) X 6.53"(h) (252.8mm X 165.8mm)Size: 10.11"(w) X 6.63"(h) (256.8mm X 168.4mm)Size: 10.15"(w) X 6.66"(h) (257.8mm X 169.2mm)Size: 10.23"(w) X 6.71"(h) (259.8mm X 170.4mm)Size: 10.27"(w) X 6.74"(h) (260.8mm X 171.2mm)Size: 10.35"(w) X 6.79"(h) (262.8mm X 172.4mm)Size: 10.50"(w) X 6.89"(h) (266.8mm X 175.0mm)Size: 10.62"(w) X 6.97"(h) (269.8mm X 177.0mm)Size: 10.74"(w) X 7.05"(h) (272.8mm X 179.0mm)Size: 10.82"(w) X 7.10"(h) (274.8mm X 180.4mm)Size: 11.02"(w) X 7.23"(h) (279.8mm X 183.6mm)Size: 11.80"(w) X 7.75"(h) (299.8mm X 196.8mm)Size: 12.31"(w) X 8.08"(h) (312.8mm X 205.2mm)Size: 14.17"(w) X 9.30"(h) (359.8mm X 236.2mm)Size: 14.76"(w) X 9.69"(h) (374.8mm X 246.0mm)The following formats are included in the file you will receive: .DST .EXP .JEF .PES .VP3 .XXX .PEC .U01You MUST have an embroidery machine and the software needed to transfer it from your computer to the machine to use this file.
