Talk:Mahaparinirvana

message: * Hallo Nat: yes, I think it would be a good idea to merge "Parinirvana" with "Mahaparinirvana", as long as we make a few adjustments (and keep that nice Gandharan picture). There are a couple of points in the "Parinirvana" entry that I would take issue with (small points, though), viz: the claim that Parinirvana entails the destruction of the skandhas (there are actually Buddha-skandhas, which are indestructible, so this distinction from the mundane skandhas needs to be spelt out), and the reference to "form" ("rupa") as a "mental skandha" (it is of course the physical skandha). I would suggest the following entry for "Parinirvana/Mahaparinirvana":
In Buddhism, parinirvana (Sanskrit -- Pali: Parinibbana -- Chinese: 般涅槃; Pinyin: bō niè pán) is the final nirvana, usually understood to be within reach only upon the death of someone who has attained complete Awakening. It is the ultimate goal of Buddhist practice and implies a release from the cycle of deaths and rebirths as well as the dissolution of all worldly physical and mental aggregates or skandhas (form, feeling, perception, mental fabrications and consciousness).
The parinirvana of Gautama Buddha is depicted in the Mahaparinibbana Sutta and the Mahaparinirvana Sutra.
The Buddhist term, "Mahaparinirvana", meaning "great, complete Nirvana" is also encountered. The word "Mahaparinirvana" usually refers to the ultimate state of Nirvana (everlasting, highest peace and happiness) entered by an Awakened Being (Buddha) or "arhat" at the moment of physical death, when the mundane skandhas (constituent elements of the ordinary body and mind) are shed and only the Buddhic skandhas remain (this in Mahayana Buddhism). However, it can also refer (in the Mahayana) to the same inner spiritual state reached during a Buddha's physical lifetime too. In the Mahayana Buddhist scripture entitled the "Mahayana Mahaparinirvana Sutra", the Buddha teaches that unlike "ordinary" Nirvana, "Mahaparinirvana" is the highest state or realm realised by a perfect Buddha, a state in which that Buddhic being awakens to "the Eternal, Bliss, the Self, and the Pure". Only in Mahaparinirvana is this True Self ("atman") of the Buddha said to be fully discernible.

message: Hardouin, again, I heavily disagree on the removal of the family name.  The family name was not used the same way that we do now -- but if you do that, you might as well remove "Xiang" from "Xiang Yu" and "Liu" from "Liu Bang."  Please try to come up with some convincing arguments otherwise.
Also, "Elizabeth I" would be an anachronism by your standard, since she would never have been referred to by anything other than Queen Elizabeth or Elizabeth R. during her reign (and as Lady Elizabeth or Princess Elizabeth before her reign).  In fact, it wouldn't be until the 20th century that she would ever be referred to as Elizabeth I, and yet we use Elizabeth I as a "modern convention."  I don't see how using the Qin royal family's family name is any different.  Are you proposing that the article Elizabeth I be moved to Elizabeth, R. or Elizabeth Tudor?
