bagaimana menerjemahkan istilah bahasa Inggris?

[Hendra Susanto]

the four planes of existence of niriya ==

[Sumedho]

kasarnya, 4 alam neraka

[Indra]

dan sepertinya tidak ada yg lebih halus lagi

[Hendra Susanto]

thx,

Thus, one could be reborn as a human being, or get to the spiritual planes of devas or ascend the higher planes of existence and obtain the benefits of a higher state of existence.

spiritual planes of devas = alam dewa??

higher planes of existence = alam yang lebih baik??

[Lex Chan]

kalo konteks matematika, plane = bidang = dimensi..
kalo konteks teknik, (aero)plane = pesawat terbang..
kalo konteks di atas, plane = alam..

[Mr. Wei]

Unselfish joy...

[Hendra Susanto]

thx again... hope u wont mind for such silly question

[Sumedho]

Unselfish joy...

kenikmatan yang tidak egois?

[Sumedho]

thx again... hope u wont mind for such silly question

where is silly ? emang ada si silly?

[Hendra Susanto]

kesenangan yang tidak mementingkan diri sendiri *panjang bener

[Indra]

"unselfish joy" mungkin adalah terjemahan dari Pali "Mudita", istilah lain dalam bahasa inggris adalah "sympathetic joy", biasanya saya terjemahkan jadi "kegembiraan simpatik", sekedar untuk menggampangkan aja, karena gak tau padanan yg lebih tepat.

atau,
secara harafiah, "unselfish joy"="kegembiraan yang tidak egois" seperti saran Bos Sumedho

[Hendra Susanto]

this day is the fifteenth day of the month, a Sabbath day,

what is the proper translation? (general translation/buddhism)

Ps:

Oxford advance learner

Sabbath: (in Judaism n Christianity) the holy day of the week that is used for resting and worshiping god.

[Indra]

Sabbath day=hari Uposatha

[Hendra Susanto]

uhh... mantep baru tau... hari sabat versi buddhis
