It is experiencing tremendous changes in the socio-cultural and institutional structures. These changes have been well confirmed and rapid during the last few decades. Particularly in recent times, the shift in the ideologies at the national level, on the one hand, and the expansion of the global market, on the other hand, created a crisis in all the developing countries in the world. In India, the shift is much more rapid and profound. This „new normal‟ is not only influencing the local economies but also the innate cultures and traditions. The impact is at two levels, the new narrative of nationalism is overshadowing the regional identities, and the windows opened by the market economy created access to the western lifestyle, including food, fashions, and culture as a whole. It is not to say that such social change in India is a sudden and recent phenomenon; it is a continuous process. However, the current phase is the most power full and strategic because it substantially alters the social structure and culture. Pambala, a Dalit priestly community representing the local tradition of Hinduism in Telangana State of South India, is one of such communities pushed into a crisis. This paper examines the status of a small community representing the local tradition in the modern nationalist and global discourse. The reportprimarily attempts to locate the Pambala community in Telangana society, culture, and their historical importance in the village ritual life. The second part examines the continuity and change in the caste, culture, and tradition; the paper is based on a focused study of a traditional community in Modern Hinduism.","PeriodicalId":157126,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of History and Cultural Studies","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125707470","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its medical aspect includes pre-natal (ante-natal) and postpartum (post-natal) services as well as paediatric care in infancy, childhood and adolescence. Health and welfare services of MCH on the other hand comprise provision of health education to parents for taking care of children, family planning and provision of such nutritional substances as milk and orange juice for children. The targets for MCH are all women in their reproductive age group (15-45 years of age), infants (0-2 years), children (2-12 years) and even adolescents (12-16 years) (EPHTI, 2003: 1 and Mishra, nd). Generally, modern health care services were first introduced in southern Nigeria when a hospital was established in Lagos in 1863 (Schram, 1971: 103). With regard to MCH, the services were a later development in the whole British Empire. They began to be in 1920s when the high mortality rate of mothers and babies especially during childbirth became a predominant concern in the Empire. Efforts to promote obstetric and paediatric medical services in Nigeria commenced firstly in southern Nigeria in 1922 and the services were extended to the northern Nigeria in 1929 (Von Tol, 2007: 110-113). Precisely, modern MCH services began in the area of Sokoto in northern Nigeria in 1930 and thus, this paper begins from that period.","PeriodicalId":157126,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of History and Cultural Studies","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133637084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper argues that, though so far under-researched by economic historians, the palm wine sector has had an impact on the economic and socio-cultural life of the people of Ndu Sub-Division. In the same vein, this article also examines the production and sale of palm wine in the Ndu Sub-Division with much focus on the contribution of this sector to the development of the area. To attain the goals of the research, chronological and thematic methods were employed in collecting, analyzing and synthesizing data obtained from primary and secondary sources. The research findings show that since 1950, the palm wine sector was very vital in the socio-economic development of the Ndu Sub-Division despite the hurdles encountered. The study reveals that the palm wine sector greatly improved the living standards of three key stakeholders including the tappers, transporters/middlemen and the retailers who had direct contacts with consumers in the market. The tappers comprised more of older men, youths were mostly middlemen and mostly women were retailers at various palm wine joints. Women were not involved in tapping as it was perceived as a taboo to the culture of the people but women could visit tappers and assist in other functions aside from the art of tapping. The sector significantly reduced unemployment in that area as it created jobs for the people, acted as a key source of livelihoods and income-generating activities for many families .","PeriodicalId":157126,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of History and Cultural Studies","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131447848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The succinct, poignant formulation of an idea has commonly achieved its purpose very effectively in many different life situations, and this in all cultures. Those texts, whether proverbs, aphorisms, epigrams, riddles, memorial verses, and the like are still with us today, but in recent years the interest in and familiarity with them seems to have faded, at least in the public. Only a few decades ago, it was very normal for students or other individuals to have memorized many of such short statements and to know how to apply them to their own lives. Many of them were regarded so highly that they populated the back pages of ordinary kitchen calendars and other publications for easy and public consumption. In foreign language classes, it was standard practice to work with some of those short texts, but today they often seem to be too conservative, naive, meaningless, and hence to be virtually irrelevant because of their putatively overly traditional, perhaps outdated values. 1 In fact, they seem to be belittled today and hardly enjoy the respect they really deserve.","PeriodicalId":157126,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of History and Cultural Studies","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116055482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bodhidharma, the founder of Chinese Chan Buddhism, brought the teachings of Buddha from India to China and unfolded those teachings in a way that was fitting to the character of the Chinese people. Dharma gained the heart of unbreakable diamond (金剛不壞心) through wall-gazing (壁觀), taught the way of satori by entering one‟s nature through non-attachment to words and writings/special transmission outside the scriptures/mind-to-mind transmission, and established Chan Buddhism in China by this means. Ultimately, Chan is a way to gain sudden enlightenment by eliminating unenlightenment, which is the root of suffering, and considers the core of asceticism to entail learning to „exceed the form (相) of the boundary on the outside, and be silent without confusion on the inside‟ 1 .
