What about the new livestyle of our religion, here are some clues to help you out: In the latter half of the 1800s century, Buddhism (along with many other of the world's religions and philosophies) came to the attention of Western intellectuals in a fast way. They also encourage work of a religious nature among prisoners, distributing tracts and holding services. Such activities are especially appreciated by those who are to suffer the death penalty. Perhaps their most far-reaching advance has been made because of the realization that leaders are needed and that they must be trained. Several schools for this purpose have sprung into existence. These included the a very pessimistic German philosopher Schopenhauer and the also pesimistic American philosopher Henry David Thoreau, who translated a Buddhist sutra from French into English.
