Hana is an epitome of a loving, dedicated and caring wife. She always has love and affection in her heart for Sadao. In spite of being married for so many years, she is still the same loving wife. She often assists Sadao in her medical operations as she helped him with anesthetics while operating Tom. She loves her family. She gets scared when a man in uniform appears at the gate. She is also a good-hearted woman as she also wished Tom to be saved. She is quite hardworking. When Yumi, the nurse refuses to wash Tom, she does it herself.

 Flow Variables. A flow is a quantity which is measured with reference to a period of time. Thus flows are defined with reference to a specific period (length of time), e.g., hours, days, weeks, months or years. It has time dimension. National income is a flow. It describes and measures flow of goods and services which become available to a country during a year. Similarly all other economic variables which have time dimension, i.e., whose magnitude can be measured over a period of time are called flow variables. For instance, income of a person is a flow which is earned during a week or a month or any other period. Likewise investment (i.e., addition to the stock of capital) is a flow as it pertains to a period of time. Other examples of flows are : expenditure, savings, depreciation, interest, exports, imports, change in inventories (not mere inventories), change in money supply, lending, borrowing, rent, profit, etc. because magnitude (size) of all these are measured over a period of time.

Question 
Draw the fixtures of 7 teams on knock-out basis.
Answer:
Total number of matches = N -1 = 7 -1 = 6

Number of teams in upper half
=N+1 / 2 = 7+1 / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4 teams
Number of teams in lower half
=N−1 / 2 = 7 − 1 / 2 = 6 / 2 =3 teams
Total number of byes = Next power of two – Total teams = 8 – 7 = 1 bye

Following are the factors that led to the rise of Jainism and Buddhism in India:

1. Reaction against Ritualism - Religious ceremonies and rituals had become very expensive and were performed according to the whims and fancies of the priestly class. Hence, a need was felt for a simple and inexpensive faith.
2. Corruption in Religion - Corruption had crept into religion and the priests often extracted money out of common citizens through different rituals. This was resented by another powerful community, i.e., the Kshatriyas.
3. Rigid Caste System - The caste divisions had become extremely rigid and there was absolutely no social mobility left in the society. There were restrictions on the basis of caste, on food, drinks and marriage.
4. Difficult language - The Vedas were written in Sanskrit and the Brahmans gave religious discourse in only that language. It was not understood or spoken by the common people and hence a need was felt for a religion which would be accessible for people at large.
5. Political situation - In the sixth century BC, Magadha was ruled by Bimbisara and later by Ajatashatru. Both had definitive opinions about religion and philosophy. Later on, both patronised Jainism and Buddhism.
6. Agricultural economy - Killing animals did not bore well for the farmers in the Gangetic valley as the increasing use of iron had made animal drawn ploughing popular. As a result, they were in a position to embrace a religion that supported non violence and was against the custom of animal sacrifice.

Derry is a young boy of fourteen years. One side of his face is badly burnt due to falling of the acid. He thinks it ‘the ugliest thing” in the world. When he sees his face in the mirror, he gets afraid of himself. He has heard ladies saying ‘What a terrible face!’. None will like him except his mother. People are afraid of him. He becomes dejected, withdrawn and defiant. He is unable to face the world. He avoids the general public. All these facts turn Derry a victim of his own inferiority complex and negative attitude.

By chance he sneaks into the garden of Mr. Lamb thinking it to be a secluded place. But Mr. Lamb interrupts him and tells that his door is always open. People can come and he has got so many friends. Consequently a surge of relief starts flowing in the mind of Derry. He is drawn towards him. Mr. Lamb tells that children tease and call him ‘Lamey-Lamb’ but he never minds. He plays with them and gives them toffees. His viewpoint brings a great change in Derry. He becomes free from inferiority complex and decides to face the realities of life.

Buddhist literature helps understanding the sculpture at Sanchi in the following ways :

1. A scene at the northern gateway at its first sight seems to depict a rural scene, with thatched huts and trees. However, the historians after studying the sculpture carefully, identify it as a scene from the Vessantara Jataka. It is a story about a generous prince who gave away everything to a Brahmana, and went to live in the forest with his wife and children.
2. The art historians acquire familiarity with biographies of the Buddha in order to understand Buddhist sculpture. According to Buddha’s biographies, Buddha attained enlightenment while meditating under a tree. Many early sculptures showed Buddha’s presence through symbols such as empty seat, stupa and the wheel. Such symbols can be understood only with the traditions of those who produced these works of art.
3. It may be mentioned that one of the earliest modem art historians, James Ferguson, considered Sanchi to be a centre of tree and serpent worship because he was not familiar with Buddhist literature – most of which had not yet been translated. He, therefore, arrived at his conclusion by studying only the images on their own.

There were certain distinction when it came to ideas of upanishadic thinkers form those of the fatalists and the materialists. There difference lies not in the question but rather in the solutions. Because the questions are same, meaning of life, death, rebirth etc.

However the interesting aspect is the answers, upanishadic thinkers believed in life after death, and the theory of karma but they also believed that karma could be rid or gained. Now when we look at the Fatalist thinkers from the Ajivikas we find that their believes are very different, they believed that everything is predetermined and it is foolish to try to get rid of karma or gaining karma.

On the other hand Lokayatas had very distinct answers to the above questions, they are known as materialist as they believed that human were made of four elements and when they die these elements goes back to where it came from. Thus they believed that there is no world as next believed by other schools.
