Shahnameh and Inferno Suffering is an ever-present human steady, yet the best part is that it is dynamic and impalpable. Dante’s Inferno and the lessons of the Buddha offer many considerations on torment. Since the entirety of Dante’s compositions about Hell is enlivened by the Catholic Church’s and Jesus’ teaching, certain references will point straightforwardly to the Church and Jesus rather than Dante. The Buddha encourages that all people experience physical and mental dukkha and that even the rich are not insusceptible from enduring’s grip. Contrast this with the Inferno, which additionally instructs that there is enduring, the entire book is in reality about only anguish, and Hell fills in as its intermediary. While it may not be a groundbreaking disclosure that various methods of reasoning perceive the presence of affliction, it is significant what every way of thinking says causes suffering. Suffering is the condition of experiencing agony, pain, or hardship. Both Dante’s Inferno and the Shahnameh are based on the matters of human torment and mortality. Often individuals, from all societies and timeframes, do not consider the…
Aging Student Name Institution Date Aging The first person I interviewed was Mrs. K, an 87 years old Caucasian female. I asked her a general question on what he could say about aging, and the response he gave was: “People misconceive aging as a complex process in life to understand, but to me, I do not find it that way. However, there are certain things that I have seen a change in my life as I continue aging. First, I have noticed that my muscles have been losing their strength, endurance as well as flexibility.

Furthermore, I find it difficult to focus on objects that are close up, and I have a problem with glare. Lastly, my skin has become thin, less elastic,…
NON-TRADITIONAL STUDENTS Name Course Professor’s Name Institution Location Date Non-traditional Students The authors make several assumptions, which highlight why non-traditional students find it hard to transition to university. In the developing of the article, they significantly employ Bourdieu’s theory of the field. The theory states that individuals position in a new field (university for this case) is determined by habitus (individual’s general constitution) and capital (social, economic and cultural factors) (Wacquant, 2004). The authors claim that the student struggle is exacerbated due to that their habitus and capital – which they have developed from schools and family – mismatch in the new field. The mismatch includes unaware of the university’s rules and norms; unable to identify sporting or leisure activities; and finding it hard to form social connections. They, therefore, generalize that to facilitate a smooth transitioning of non-traditional students to the university, cultural change is a prerequisite in the institutions. These facilities should move away from their cultural notion that; students need to adapt to university. Instead, the facilities…

Health Law Part I: The Role of the Joint Commission in Accreditation Facilities to be accredited The Joint Commission (JC) can accredit many kinds of health care organizations (HCOs) through on-site evaluation to assess compliance with the standards and verify improvement activities. The HCOs include hospitals, nursing homes, behavioral health treatment facilities, doctor’s offices, office-based surgery centers, and home care service providers (The Joint Commission, 2020).

Abortion has been defined as the termination of pregnancy that involves doing away with an embryo or fetus before it is in a position to be able to survive outside the uterus. We have different types of abortion depending on the manner that it happens. One may choose to end the pregnancy willingly or deliberately due to medical or individual reasons. In such a scenario, the abortion is termed as induced abortion or, in other terms, induced miscarriage. We also have cases where abortion occurs in a way that one does not necessarily decide to end the pregnancy, but it just happens without any intervention. With this kind of a scenario, abortion is referred to as a miscarriage. In other cases also, it occurs that abortion occurs at a time that the fetus has developed and can survive outside the uterus. In such a situation, the abortion is said to be late termination of pregnancy or late-term abortion In most developing countries, abortion has been the main reason for the high level of maternal death. In most of these deaths,…
