The Path to Sainthood: Celibacy in Catholicism and Pabbajita in Buddhism
Full text linkCelibacy is a spiritual act of worship that can be found in Catholicism and Buddhism. Some cases show an inability to continue the spiritual journey of celibacy. This research was conducted to describe the concept of celibacy in Catholicism and Buddhism and its comparison. The explanation and analysis of the central concept of celibacy are based on studies conducted through literature studies. The results of this study indicate: First, celibacy in Catholicism is a choice made by someone not to enter into marriage ties as a form of devotion to God. Meanwhile, in Buddhism, celibacy is one way to achieve peace. Second, the basis for practicing celibacy for Catholics comes from the prohibition of marriage in the Letter of Matthew in a message from Jesus. Whereas in Buddhism, celibacy is a way of life from Pabbajita, what the Buddha taught. Third, the controversy over celibacy in Catholicism began when Peter, the Pope at that time, was married, as well as cases of sexual harassment by priests. Whereas in Buddhism, especially Theravada, the debate is not big because it is a moral code of Pattimokkha given directly from Buddha Siddharta Gautama for those who wish to attain Nibbana. This article argues that celibacy in Catholicism and Buddhism is dynamic and controversial.
Selibat adalah tindakan ibadah spiritual yang dapat ditemukan dalam agama Katolik dan Budha. Beberapa kasus menunjukkan ketidakmampuan untuk melanjutkan perjalanan spiritual selibat. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mendeskripsikan konsep selibat dalam agama Katolik dan Buddha serta perbandingannya. Penjelasan dan analisis konsep sentral selibat didasarkan pada studi yang dilakukan melalui studi literatur. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan: Pertama, selibat dalam agama Katolik adalah pilihan yang dilakukan oleh seseorang untuk tidak melangsungkan ikatan perkawinan sebagai bentuk pengabdian kepada Tuhan. Sedangkan dalam agama Buddha, selibat adalah salah satu cara untuk mencapai kedamaian. Kedua, dasar untuk mempraktikkan selibat bagi umat Katolik berasal dari larangan pernikahan dalam Surat Matius dalam pesan dari Yesus. Sedangkan dalam Buddhisme, selibat adalah cara hidup dan Pabbajita apa yang diajarkan Sang Buddha. Ketiga, kontroversi selibat dalam Katolik dimulai ketika Petrus Paus yang menikah, serta kasus pelecehan seksual oleh para pendeta. Sedangkan dalam agama Buddha, khususnya Theravada, perdebatannya tidak besar karena merupakan kode moral Patimokkha yang diberikan langsung dari Buddha Siddharta Gautama bagi yang ingin pencapaian Nibbana. Artikel ini berpendapat bahwa selibat dalam agama Katolik dan Buddha bersifat dinamis dan kontroversial
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Kearifan Ekologi Masyarakat Adat Karampuang dalam Menjaga Kelestarian Hutan
No full textThe paradigm of world religions strongly influences insights about religion in Indonesia. The world's religious paradigm has placed indigenous people in discrimination, and they have difficulty carrying out the religious practices they have been doing for generations. This paper is a critical study of previous studies on the Karampuang Indigenous people, who still view traditions, community and nature relations, and local wisdom through the paradigms of world religions. This article will be examined through a traditional religious approach. This article aims to explain the relationship between the Karampuang Indigenous people and nature, the ecological wisdom of the Karampuang Indigenous people in preserving nature, and the traditions of the Indigenous people in maintaining this ecological wisdom. This study used a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques through interviews with key informants supported by the literature. First, it was found that the Karampuang Indigenous people see nature as a subject or person. This relationship is interpreted as Mapakalebbi Ale Hanua (respect for nature. Relationships are built because of the awareness that humans are integral to the forest itself. Second, ecological wisdom in the Karampuang community is passed down from generation to generation through Paseng (messages) of indigenous through Lontara and oral speech such as Makkamase Ale (loving the forest), Mappakatuo Ale (humanizing the forest) and Tuo Kamase-mase (living equal and in harmony with nature). Rituals of the Mappogau Sihanua are a reminder of the importance of preserving nature.Paradigma agama-agama dunia sangat mempengaruhi wawasan tentang agama di Indonesia. Paradigma keagamaan dunia telah menempatkan masyarakat adat dalam diskriminasi, dan mereka kesulitan menjalankan praktik keagamaan yang telah mereka lakukan secara turun-temurun. Tulisan ini merupakan kajian kritis terhadap kajian-kajian sebelumnya terhadap masyarakat Adat Karampuang yang masih memandang tradisi, hubungan masyarakat dan alam, serta kearifan lokal melalui paradigma agama-agama dunia. Artikel ini ditelaah melalui pendekatan religi tradisional. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan hubungan antara Masyarakat Adat Karampuang dengan alam, kearifan ekologi Masyarakat Adat Karampuang dalam melestarikan alam, dan tradisi Masyarakat Adat dalam menjaga kearifan ekologi tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kualitatif dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui wawancara dengan informan kunci yang didukung dengan literatur. Pertama, ditemukan bahwa Masyarakat Adat Karampuang melihat alam sebagai subyek atau pribadi. Hubungan ini dimaknai sebagai Mapakalebbi Ale Hanua (penghormatan terhadap alam. Hubungan dibangun karena kesadaran bahwa manusia adalah bagian integral dari hutan itu sendiri. Kedua, kearifan ekologis masyarakat Karampuang diturunkan dari generasi ke generasi melalui Paseng (pesan-pesan) dari adat melalui Lontara dan tuturan lisan seperti Makkamase Ale (mencintai hutan), Mappakatuo Ale (memanusiakan hutan) dan Tuo Kamase-mase (hidup setara dan selaras dengan alam) dalam melestarikan alam
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
