UKT 140427: There are Bur-Myan words derived from Pal-Myan in def. given by UMK-USL. You can spot them by their viram aka
{a.þût}-sign which was not present in Pal-Myan. Bur-Myan & Pal-Myan are highly integrated, which I take to be because both are Tib-Bur languages. I dispute that Pali spoken in Myanmarpré (which is now mixed up with Lankan-Pali) was Indo-European. The mother tongue (L1) of Gautama Buddha was the Pali spoken in Myanmarpré.
«kāyānugata»

inconveniences such as [UKT additions

01. thīta - cold [low ambient
temperature due to weather],
02. uṇha - heat [high ambient
temperature due to weather] ,
03. jighacchā - hunger [requirement
of the physical body],
04. pipāsā - thirst [requirement

which no amount of past meritorious deeds
can prevent from their occurrence and which
even Buddhas, Silent Buddhas and saintly
persons are not immune to.
- MK-PED014-2
UKT 140426: You will note that the above 10 inconveniences are simply natural processes that happens to any living organisms recognized by modern science. Immortality, and other unnatural processes are just fiction. It shows that Gautama Buddha was a normal human being who came to possess a very high intellect or wisdom. He lived a normal life-span of 80 years, and when he died he was cremated just like everyone else leaving nothing but bits of un-burnt bones.
UKT 140427: This word is a compound of 2 large words which are themselves compounds. In the def. by UMK-USL, there are Bur-Myan words derived from Pal-Myan. You can spot them by their viram aka
{a.þût}-sign which was not present in Pal-Myan.

- MK-PED016-1
UKT 140427: UMK-USL definition of
{ka-la.wi.pût~ti.} involves "human life span". I have heard, since childhood, of fear-mongering accounts of various Epochs (Ages) when human life span becomes shortened. Instead of making me afraid, these accounts have left me feeling disgusted. Leaving aside the religious reasons of personal mis-deeds in previous lives (which has no scientific basis), we should know something of the modern science of Ecology, and theories of Life Span and Life Expectancy.

From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuga 140427
Yuga युग
{yu.ga.} aka
{yoag} in Hindu philosophy is the
name of an epoch or era within a four age
cycle. According to Hindu cosmology,
life in the universe is created and
destroyed once every 4.1 to 8.2 billion years,
[1]
[2]
which is one full day (day and night) for
Brahma. The lifetime of a Brahma
himself may be between 40 billion and 311
trillion years.
[1]
[UKT ¶]
The cycles are said to repeat like the seasons, waxing and waning within a greater time-cycle of the creation and destruction of the universe. Like Summer, Spring, Winter and Autumn, each yuga involves stages or gradual changes which the earth and the consciousness of mankind goes through as a whole. A complete yuga cycle from a high Golden Age, called the Satya Yuga to a Dark Age, Kali Yuga and back again is said to be caused by the solar system's motion around another star. [3]
