one God, Who is Three „ersons

God's revelation.

á The Buddha was an ordinary man, who 2,@00
years ago saw clearly into the true nature of
reality. As such, Buddhaƞs teachings are not set
rules to follow, nor the only wisdom in the
world. Rather, they should be seen as advice to
consider, from someone who has Ɲgone beyondƞ
everyday views, ideas, and conceptions. Many
have also become Ɲenlightenedƞ before Buddha,
have since the Buddha, and will in the future.

Spain and expanded all over the world with the help of its
famous explorers like Vasco da Gama and „rince Henry the
avigator. (Good thing Henry became a navigator . . .
could you imagine if a guy named "„rince Henry the
avigator" became a florist?) Because „ortugal got in so
early on the exploring game, the language established
itself all over the world, especially in Brazil (where it's the
national language), Macau, Angola, Venezuela, and
Mozambique.

á Hindustani is the primary language of India's crowded
population, and it encompasses a huge number of dialects
(of which the most commonly spoken is Hindi). While
many predict that the population of India will soon surpass
that of China, the prominence of English in India prevents
Hindustani from surpassing the most popular language in
the world. If you're interested in learning a little Hindi,
there's a very easy way: rent an Indian movie. The film
industry in India is the most prolific in the world, making
thousands of action/romance/musicals every year.

planet is based in the most populated country on the
planet. Beating second-
second-place English by a 2 to 1 ratio, but
don't let that lull you into thinking that Mandarin is easy to
learn. Speaking Mandarin can be really tough, because
each word can be pronounced in four ways (or "tones"),
and a beginner will invariably have trouble distinguishing
one tone from another. But if over a billion people could do
it, so could you. Try saying hello!
á To say "hello" in Mandarin, say "i hao" (ee HaOW).
("Hao" is pronounced as one syllable, but the tone requires
that you let your voice drop midway, and then raise it
again at the end.)

á For many generations the Yupƞik people of Alaska
have created beautifully expressive masks for their
traditional dances and ceremonies. Over the long

face peering through a triangular shield, painted
red, white, and black. Ten feathers are bent
through holes in the upper rim and sewn in place.

á Carnivals are of ancient origin and virtually all peoples in all
eras have organized carnivals to mark or celebrate
different events. Carnivals can be magical, political,
satirical, or purely entertaining; some even poke fun at
death. In much of „uerto Rico and other parts of the world
with a strong Roman Catholic presence, Carnaval has a
special meaning. It refers to the last days before the
beginning of Lent. In „uerto Rico, Carnaval begins on
February 2 and lasts until Ash Wednesday, which is forty
days before Easter.
á In many carnivals, masks are key ingredients of the public
spectacle. Some elements of carnival in „once, including
the use of papier-
papier-maché masks, probably came to the
island from Spain. Other customs may have come from
African and ative American traditions
