Are the "Three Turnings of the Wheel of Dharma" a Mahayana-only teaching?

Question by Mawkish on "Dharma":

What does Theravada Buddhism teach about the 'turnings of the Wheel of Dharma'?

Best Answer:

Answer by Manjushri
By "The Turnings of the Wheel of Dharma," you mean karma, or the laws of cause and effect, no? This is a basic belief straight from the Pali canon, supported by such universally-accepted texts as the Dhammapada; it is a belief common to all buddhists.

by Ron Sombilon Gallery Question by isiddhayoga on " Natural Therapy ": naturally our biological system depend on natural selection,it is darwin theory.then i suppose to say we protect our mechanism by our own habit and habitat. Best Answer: Answer by m_if_you_please Firs of all. I don't think anybody want to die, just to make the human race stronger. Second. Our intelligence are caused by natural selection. To not use our intelligence to cure disease would be unnatural. There have been attempts to make the human race better by selection.

Best Answer: Answer by huggz Stress will not affect the growth rate either way, they are there to stay. I started going grey in my mid 20s and from around 26 I had a silver stripe in my hair. I dyed it for years and then just left it to grow. I love it, its distinctive and I no longer worry about it. Got A Better Answer? Leave your own answer in the commen...
