Jatakas are stories about the former lives of Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha about which you have read in Chapter Two. These stories originated in ancient India, between roughly 300 BCE and 400 CE, and were collected together in Buddhist canons and writings. In these stories, the Buddha appears in various roles, such as an animal or king, and through his words and deeds offers a moral lesson. In this regard, the tales are not unlike Aesop’s Fables. Scholars have noted, however, that most of these tales were not necessarily Buddhist in origin, but rather adopted a Buddhist setting to convey a moral allegory and social commentary. Also, historians find that these tales offer insight into ancient India’s societies and popular culture.For this discussion, in 2-3 substantial paragraphs, please explain the lesson or lessons the story is trying to convey. Furthermore, examine the author’s social commentary. For instance, what we can learn about the author’s (or authors’) opinion of Brahmins, gender roles, and the signs of society in decline? [Note: In the document, the Buddha is referred to as the "Chief Brahmin".]You will also need to post a response to at least two of your classmates' posts, considering the validity of their insights.Also, make sure that your response(s) consist of a substantial paragraph.

Some students frequently interpret the chapter from the book by McGrath and Spear as either recommending that community college faculty simply get "tougher" with wayward and obnoxious students, or as a kind of handbook for wayward students that might advise them to "straighten up and fly right." Do either of those understandings of their chapter appear right to you? How would someone move from the details of community college students presented by M&S to one or the other of those two positions?Needs to be atleast 400 words
