Samsara (Buddhisme): Perbedaan antara revisi

Dalam [[Buddhisme]], '''samsara''' ([[KBBI]]; {{lang-pi|'''''saṃsāra'''''}}; {{Lang-sa|संसार}}) adalah siklus tanpa awal dari [[Punarbawa|kelahiran berulang]], keberadaan duniawi, dan kematian kembali. Samsara dianggap sebagai [[Penderitaan (Buddhisme)|penderitaan]] (''dukkha''), dan secara umum tidak memuaskan dan menyakitkan,{{sfn|Wilson|2010}} dilanggengkan oleh [[Nafsu kehausan (Buddhisme)|nafsu keinginankehausan]] (''taṇhā'') dan [[Ketidaktahuan (Buddhisme)|ketidaktahuan]] (''avijjā''), danjuga dengan [[Karma dalam Buddhisme|karma]] sertadan [[Landasan indra|pengindraan]] yang dihasilkannya.{{sfn|Juergensmeyer|Roof|2011|p=271-272}}{{sfn|McClelland|2010|p=172, 240}}{{sfn|Williams|Tribe|Wynne|2012|p=18–19, chapter 1}}

Berbeda dari keyakinan [[agama Hindu]], konsep samsara dalam Buddhisme menyatakan bahwa, meskipun makhluk-makhluk hidup mengalami siklus kelahiran kembali yang tak berujung, tidak ada jiwa atau roh (''[[atman]]'') yang tidak berubah yang berpindah dari satu kehidupan ke kehidupan lainnya.<ref>{{sfnharvnb|Trainor|2004|p=58, Quote}}: "Buddhism shares with Hinduism the doctrine of Samsara, whereby all beings pass through an unceasing cycle of birth, death and rebirth until they find a means of liberation from the cycle. However, Buddhism differs from Hinduism in rejecting the assertion that every human being possesses a changeless soul which constitutes his or her ultimate identity, and which transmigrates from one incarnation to the next.}}</ref name="naomiappleton76">{{cite booksfn|author=Naomi Appleton|year=2014|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=AhT7AgAAQBAJ|title=Narrating Karma and Rebirth: Buddhist and Jain Multi-Life Stories|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-1-139-91640-0|pagespp=76–89|access-date=2016-09-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160830191147/https://books.google.com/books?id=AhT7AgAAQBAJ|archive-date=2016-08-30|url-status=live}}</ref> Ajaran tentang [[tanpa-atma]] (tanpa-diri atau tanpa-roh) ini disebut ''anatta'' ([[Bahasa Pali|Pali]]) atau ''anātman'' ([[Bahasa Sanskerta|Sanskerta]]) dalam [[Kitab Buddhis|kitab-kitab Buddhis]].<ref group=web name="britannicaanatta">[http://www.britannica.com/topic/anatta Anatta Buddhism] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151210185046/http://www.britannica.com/topic/anatta|date=2015-12-10}}, Encyclopædia Britannica (2013)</ref><ref name="anatta3sources">[a] {{cite bookharvnb|author=Christmas Humphreys|year=2012|urlpp=https://books.google.com/books?id=V3rYtmCZEIEC|title=Exploring Buddhism|publisher=Routledge|isbn=97842-1-136-22877-3|pages=42–43|access-date=2016-09-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210413214532/https://books.google.com/books?id=V3rYtmCZEIEC|archive-date=2021-04-13|url-status=live43}}{{br}} [b] {{cite bookharvnb|author=Brian Morris|year=2006|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PguGB_uEQh4C&pg=PA51|title=Religion and Anthropology: A Critical Introduction|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=978-0-521-85241-8|pagespp=51|access-date=2016-09-25|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210414231532/https://books.google.com/books?id=PguGB_uEQh4C&pg=PA51|archive-date=2021-04-14|url-status=live}}, '''Quote:''' "(...) anatta is the doctrine of non-self, and is an extreme empiricist doctrine that holds that the notion of an unchanging permanent self is a fiction and has no reality.

Samsara dicirikan oleh ''[[dukkha]]'' ("penderitaan, tidak memuaskan, menyakitkan").
