In the Buddha intruction or any principle, there is no decription about human right directly but he knew that people always get pain or hurt if any one make him hurt so it mean that evryone must hurt. The meaning is stated to protect human hights, human interest though she or he stay on any level.sithanayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09701816948825681681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922161292779305181.post-43052374764960350102007-07-26T05:36:00.000-07:002007-07-26T05:36:00.000-07:00good everning sir i am happy to get your explainan...good everning sir i am happy to get your explainantion but i still not clearly about human righ tand buddhism ! for me i think human right it is universal law for man but i think it is form part buddhism ! but for your view you said human right as a concept fairly modern western creation , for my view i think even it is modern western creation it still as a form part of buddhism because it though western concept also part of buddhism! the buddhism is first doctrine that buddha enlignment forst then concept western maybe born in next time so i believe it also cop0y from buddhism theory ! for in view it is right or wrong ? i am happy to get your advice and waiting for more explaine from you.ravys2https://www.blogger.com/profile/06615710555508806563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6922161292779305181.post-61555398432300143502007-07-26T03:29:00.000-07:002007-07-26T03:29:00.000-07:00Hi Andy, Welcome.

It's a pleasure to have you. <BR/><BR/>Just quickly on the questions you posed and assertions made here: <BR/><BR/>-- yes, when we speak about human rights here we are referring to universal human rights embedded in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) and other instruments that have sprung out of it in the past 6 decades. <BR/><BR/>-- i told the students that questions solely pertaining to Buddhist theology were admissible, as most of them never studied Buddhism prior to this, and therefore, likely will need to clear out what they have heard about the Buddhist doctrine living their entire lives in a Buddhist society, and which part of it is compliant with the teachings of Theravada Buddhism and which are mere concoctions of "popular Buddhism" spread by the word of mouth. <BR/><BR/>StanStan Staryginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00960159815221006813noreply@blogger.com
