The Inquiry of Ugra (Ugrapariprccha) is one of the most influential Mahayana sutras, preserved and transmitted in both India and China over many centuries and actively quoted in treatises on the bodhisattva path. It is, nevertheless, one of the most neglected texts in Western treatments of Buddhism. The Ugra appers to be one of the earliest bodhisattva scriptures to come down to us, and as such it offers a particularly valuable window on the process by which the bodhisattva path came to be seen as a distinct vocational alternative within certain Indian Buddhist communities. The Bodhisattva Path is a study and translation of the Ugra that will fundamentally alter previous perceptions of the w...
Originating in India, Mahayana Buddhism spread across Asia, becoming the prevalent form of Buddhism in Tibet and East Asia. Over the last twenty-five years Western interest in Mahayana has increased considerably, reflected both in the quantity of scholarly material produced and in the attraction of Westerners towards Tibetan Buddhism and Zen. Paul Williams’ Mahayana Buddhism is widely regarded as the standard introduction to the field, used internationally for teaching and research and has been translated into several European and Asian languages. This new edition has been fully revised throughout in the light of the wealth of new studies and focuses on the religion’s diversity and richness. It includes much more material on China and Japan, with appropriate reference to Nepal, and for students who wish to carry their study further there is a much-expanded bibliography and extensive footnotes and cross-referencing. Everyone studying this important tradition will find Williams’ book the ideal companion to their studies.
“Buku yang memiliki 14 bab ini membahas sangkaan orang ramai terhadap perkara yang dianggap boleh menjadi penguat keimanan walhal perkara tersebut tidak memiliki sandaran dalam agama,” Dato Dr. Hj. Abdul Basit Hj. Abdul Rahman.
This book discusses the expertise, skills, and techniques needed for the development of new materials and technologies. It focuses on finite element and finite volume methods that are used for engineering simulations, and present many state-of-the-art applications and advances to highlight these methods’ importance. For example, modern joining technologies can be used to fabricate new compound or composite materials, even those formed from dissimilar component materials. These composite materials are often exposed to harsh environments, must deliver specific characteristics, and are primarily used in automotive and marine technologies, i.e., ships, amphibious vehicles, docks, offshore structures, and even robots. To achieve the desired material performance, computer-based engineering tools are widely used for simulation, data evaluation, and design processes.

Ada beberapa perkara yang menjadi persoalan: Mengapa dalam agama Islam yang dibawa oleh Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. terdapat kisah-kisah nabi terdahulu? Apa kaitan Baginda dengan nabi-nabi terdahulu? Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. adalah berbangsa Arab, namun kenapa Al-Quran harus bercakap mengenai bangsa lain terutama sekali bangsa Yahudi? Mengapa Al-Quran mengakui kitab-kitab terdahulu, malah terdapat banyak persamaan hukum di dalamnya? Bagaimana Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. tahu mengenai kisah para nabi bangsa Yahudi, sedangkan dalam sejarah hidup Baginda tidak pernah belajar mengenai agama Yahudi dan tidak pernah membaca Taurat dan Injil? Jawapan kepada empat soalan ini hanyalah satu. Islam yang dibawa oleh Nabi...

Persoalan yang paling besar dalam kehidupan seorang manusia yang berfikir adalah tentang siapakah Tuhan mereka dan apakah hakikat Tuhan itu sendiri? Selain itu, soalan seperti, “Dari mana kita wujud?”, “Mengapa kita wujud?”, dan “Ke manakah kita selepas kewujudan ini?” merupakan soalan pemikiran dan falsafah yang menjadi asas kepada pemikiran falsafah jauh sebelum Nabi Muhammad SAW menerimanya wahyunya yang pertama. Soalan-soalan tersebut tidak mampu sewenang-wenangnya dijawab hatta oleh ahli fikir yang agung sekalipun. Sehinggalah manusia mendapat petunjuk wahyu daripada Sang Pencipta mereka yang berkomunikasi dan menyampaikan watikah-watikah khas melalui pengantara untuk mengin...
