What role does the individual conscious mind play in the transition from life to death to life again in the Buddhist Scriptures, andhow does the portrayal of the transition offered there differ from Arjuna’svision of Krishna’s totality in the Bhagavad Gita?

Are there any major differences in the character of the gods in the Buddhist Scriptures and in the Bhagavad Gita, and do the two works differ on the question of the type and degree of devotion that humans owe gods?

How, if at all, do the Buddhist Scriptures and the Bhagavad Gita differ on the role of detachment and discipline (yoga) in achieving release from suffering, and are there any major differences in their respective understandings of the nature of this release?

You have now posted 3 homework or quiz questions. Brief explanation-We don't do them for you. What's the purpose of studying the course?

You ask some good provoking questions, which look very much like homework.

I would be glad to really discuss some issues, if you wish, but we do not do, homework questions. Which this appears.

Also, please understand, Buddhist beliefs can also differ by location. India or China do have some difference practice also.
