| Abstract: | Growth of every religion is influenced by the surrounding cultural background. No doubt, cultural legacy gets mixed with many potent elements resulting into a sort of new or modern civilization. Nothing can totally be erased or replaced and therefore, some notable fibres of the past grandeur remain. In case of Buddhism, the influencing civilization had been from the East. Therefore, in general, it would be wise to understand the prevailing traditions which could intimately come close to the ‘Ism', during its birth and also gestation period. People's civilization has a clear impact of the geographical conditions and many times the extant political regime. A country like India wherein Buddhism could find a colossal support and base, had been stuffed disproportionately with various cultures and languages. No doubt, theoretically one may emotionally proclaim unity in diversity, it had been ever subject to polarization. Most of the countries are, impartially speaking, divided into various ethnic groups, each having own territorial spirit. It is only a soothing ides to camouflage the reality and declare that all are united. In India, we have traditional divisions based on the conventionally and conveniently allotted duties. The danger has been the growing habit of imposing own ideas with an undue insistence, owing to which the very social paradigm is getting totally damaged. The dominating traditional ritualistic practices which had been in excess have weakened the true philosophical spirit, It is in this context that Stoicism and Buddhism have stood as corrective factors in a genuine format. There have been many similarities in Stoicism and Buddhism particularly with regard to the guidance for ethical living. There is a clear indication that both have an astounding intention of dispelling the human ignorance so as to lead a life with a sense of fulfilment. This paper attempts to bring forth the similarities between the two and provide a pathway or technique to live life meaningfully. |
