Achar (Buddhism)
An achar ( km, អាចារ្យ, ) or achar wat ( km, អាចារ្យវត្ត, link=no, ) is a lay Buddhist ''upāsaka'' who becomes a ritual specialist and takes on the role of master of ceremonies in various religious rites in Cambodia. Etymology The term ''achar'' comes from ''acharya'' (Sanskrit: आचार्य, IAST: ; Pali: ''acariya''): in Indian religions and society, the ''acharya'' is a preceptor and expert instructor in matters such as religion, or any other subject. Prominent ''acharya'' figures in India include Madhvacharya or Vallabhacharya. The equivalent in Thai, ''ajahn'', which comes from the same root, is used as an honorific title of address for high-school and university teachers, and for Buddhist monks who have passed ten ''vassa'' years in the ''vihāra'' monastery considered as "Venerable" (''phra ajahn'' ( th, พระอาจารย์,"venerable monk"). The latter is similar in meaning to the Japanese ''sensei''. His ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Acar
Acar is a type of vegetable pickle of Maritime Southeast Asia, most prevalent in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei. It is a localised version of Indian '' achar''. It is known as atjar in Dutch cuisine, derived from Indonesian ''acar''. ''Acar'' is usually prepared in bulk as it may easily be stored in a well-sealed glass jar in refrigerator for a week, and served as the condiment for any meals. History Pickling originated in India around 2400 BCE, and with expansion of Indian cultural influence on Greater India, through transmission of Hinduism leading to Indianisation, and the formation of native Southeast Asian kingdoms which adopted many Indian cultural elements, including food processing technique. Through examining the etymology, the similar sounding name strongly suggests that indeed acar was derived from Indian achar pickle. Indian achar was transmitted in antiquity to the maritime realm of Southeast Asia, which today recognized as acar in Indonesia, Mal ...

Achar People
The Adjarians ( ka, აჭარლები, Ačarlebi) are an ethnographic group of Georgians living mainly in Adjara in south-western Georgia and speaking the Adjarian dialect of the Georgian language. The Adjarians had their own territorial entity, the Autonomous Republic of Adjara, founded on 16 July 1921 as the Adjara ASSR. After years of post-Soviet stalemate, the region was brought closer within the framework of the Georgian state in 2004, retaining its autonomous status. Adjarian settlements are also found in the Georgian provinces of Guria, Kvemo Kartli, and Kakheti, as well as in several areas of neighbouring Turkey. History and Religion Many Adjarians converted to Islam in the 16th and 17th centuries when the Ottomans ruled over southwestern Georgian lands. The Georgian population of Adjara had been generally known as Muslim Georgians until the 1926 Soviet census listed them as ''Adjarians'', separate from the rest of Georgians, counting 71,426 of them.

Achan (biblical Figure)
Achan (; he, עכן), the son of Carmi, a descendant of Zimri, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, is a figure who appears in the Book of Joshua in the Hebrew Bible in connection with the fall of Jericho and conquest of Ai. His name is given as Achar in . Account in the Book of Joshua According to the narrative of Joshua chapter 7, Achan pillaged an ingot of gold, a quantity of silver, and a "beautiful Babylonian garment" from Jericho, in contravention of Joshua's directive that "all the silver, and gold, and vessels of brass and iron, are consecrated unto the Lord: they shall come into the treasury of the Lord" (). The Book of Joshua claims that this act resulted in the Israelites being collectively punished by God, in that they failed in their first attempt to capture Ai, with about 36 Israelites lost (). The Israelites used cleromancy (the sacred Lots Urim and Thummim) to decide who was to blame, and having identified Achan, they sacrificed him to Yaweh as well as ...
