Abstract

Aim: The primary goal of this research is to examine the similarities and differences between Taoist and Theravada Buddhist approaches to sitting and walking meditation in light of their potential applications in treating mental and physical illness in modern society.Method: The primary methodological strategy used to examine the central argument of this study is historiography. This study’s content analysis relies heavily on primary sources like archival materials and documents and a wide range of scholarly arguments.Findings: People’s physical and mental well-being have been shown to improve through both sitting and working meditation, even in today’s stressful, competitive, complicated, and market-oriented society. A recent explosion in popularity shows that the highest-ranking professionals and wealthiest people are practising sitting and working meditation to improve their health and productivity. It’s not just a fad sweeping the nation; it’s a worldwide phenomenon. People in countries that don’t practise Buddhism or Taoism, like those in Europe, have been innovating by meditating for the same benefits.Implications/Novel Contribution: The increasing prevalence of non-epidemic diseases as a result of mental stress highlights the relevance of this study in several ways for the modern world. Both of these seated meditation positions have been shown to have beneficial effects on stress and physical health. In addition, this leads to the simplification of all manner of mundane, real-world tasks. The results of this study can be used by academics who plan to focus their careers on studying meditation and postures.

Abstract

Aim: Clothes are more than just a means of keeping warm; they also convey meanings about the social and cultural norms to which they belong. Since ancient times, Sri Lankans have dressed in accordance with cultural norms and traditions for Buddhist religious ceremonies. Located in Kandy, a city recognised by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, the Temple of the Tooth is the subject of this investigation into a particular type of musician’s headdress.Method: The study is ethnographic in nature, with the participation of observers serving as its conceptual foundation. Scholars attended rituals held at the Temple of the Tooth, conducted interviews with musicians who performed there and analysed the results.Findings: This vital piece of the headdress has been worn in a specific manner since ancient times. The headdress can convey various meanings, including the importance of the occasion, the wearer’s glitzy personality, the depth of their hospitality, the respect they have for the Buddha, and their level of artistic skill.Implications/Novel Contribution: This study summarises the significance of the turban in Sri Lankan culture. The research familiarises the world with Sri Lankan culture.

Abstract

Aim: This paper examines the curricula and pedagogical practices of Gujarat colleges associated with the Gujarat Technical University and the National Institute of Technology, Surat, concerning the instruction of communication skills. This encompasses the vast majority of Gujarat’s engineering schools.Method: To better understand the challenges of instructing engineering students, a qualitative study was conducted in which eight English teachers from different engineering colleges in and around Surat were interviewed. To complete the research, eight English professors at different engineering schools in and around Surat, Gujarat, were contacted. These educators were chosen to represent a range of ages, levels of experience and education, and specialisations.Findings: This paper uses the study’s findings to argue that engineering curricula should incorporate several activities aimed at improving engineers’ employability. From this, we can infer that the chalk-and-talk approach to teaching engineers communication skills is ineffective. Furthermore, industry standards have increased rapidly.Implications/Novel Contribution: This research contributes to the body of literature by providing empirical evidence for the importance of fostering employability skills in one’s communication repertoire. While generalisations from this study are obviously not possible, it is safe to assume that English instructors in India’s engineering colleges face similar difficulties to those identified in this study’s sample. Second, despite efforts to improve the situation, recent engineering graduates’ lack of employability skills continues to trouble both Indian employers and graduates alike.

Abstract

Aim: This paper seeks to address the literature gap by investigating how Pride and Prejudice translators dealt with issues of conversational implicature in the novel’s dialogue.Method: Conversations selected from Pride and Prejudice chapter 10 served as the data source. The sample size was 53 different quotes. We applied cooperative principles to the study of those statements. The research methods used in this paper combine a focus group discussion (FGD) and a comparative analysis (CA).Findings: Thirty statements were found to violate cooperative principle maxims. Modulation translation was primarily used to render this speech sounds into another language. In addition to the modulation translation method, standard equivalent, amplification, reduction, and transposition translation approaches were also utilised.Implications/Novel Contribution: If translators use this case study as a guide, they will better understand which translation strategies to employ. The case study could also be investigated from a sociolinguistic or second-language learning perspective.

Abstract

Aim: Even though the project has been declared run based on the feasibility analysis results, this study assessed the mining company’s operations as prices began to drop. The POAC approach will be used throughout observing the parameter mentioned above, from planning and organisation to actuation and control.Method: Due to the positive results of the feasibility study, the project is now considered operational, and this study examined how the mining industry operates in the face of falling prices. Starting with scheduling and moving on to coordination, actuation, and management, the POAC method was used to keep the parameter under control.Findings: The results predicted that although the project has been declared to be feasibly run, it is still possible and should to re-conduct a feasibility study or planning strategy due to the changes in parameters, both technical and economic parameters, which are assumed as the basis for making plans and its makes the plan remains relevant. To remain profitable, a mining company needs to adjust to new circumstances quickly and easily, no matter how dire they may get.Implications/Novel Contribution: Comprehensive information about mine planning has been compiled as a result of this study. The findings may aid policymakers in better comprehending the system, which may lead to greater efficacy.
