So when our very own National Service Training Department changes the description of the M16 assault rifle training that some of our trainees are undergoing from "shooting lessons" to "light-arms usage training", we know that a euphemism is being used in our very own backyard.
One also hopes the objectives of National Service will be used to judge if this firearm training for our young should be continued.
See, the objectives of National Service in Malaysia, as spelt out in the website (http://www.khidmatnegara.gov.my), are threefold:

 Brain fingerprinting update : SF Indymedia
According to an October, 2001, report to the U.S. Senate from the General Accounting Office, these agencies were avoiding brain fingerprinting because "the research expenses, equipment and training costs were perceived to exceed benefits." But that report was written before the War on Terrorism and the federal government's threefold spending increase for security technologies.
A computer analyzes the brain's response to determine whether the subject recognizes the relevant pictures-an Al Qaeda training manual or a terrorist recruiter, for example.
The Laboratory has developed "brain fingerprinting," a technology that measures a suspect's brain waves-and, says Farwell, can tip off investigators to the man who knows too much.

 The Noble Eightfold Path
The sequence of the path factors, however, is not the result of a careless slip, but is determined by an important logistical consideration, namely, that right view and right intention of a preliminary type are called for at the outset as the spur for entering the threefold training.
Since the final goal to which the path leads, liberation from suffering, depends ultimately on uprooting ignorance, the climax of the path must be the training directly opposed to ignorance.
To his own disciples he was pre-eminently "the arouser of the path unarisen before, the producer of the path not produced before, the declarer of the path not declared before, the knower of the path, the seer of the path, the guide along the path" (MN 108).

The path of liberation that the Buddha points to is the threefold training in moral discipline (//sila//), concentration (//samadhi//), and wisdom (//panna//).
But if we isolate them, sila as inner virtue can be called the aim of the training in moral discipline, sila as purified actions of body and speech the manifestation of that aim, and sila as rules of conduct the systematic means of actualizing the aim.
The Benefits of Sila ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The benefits sila brings to the one who undertakes it can be divided into three classes: (1) the benefits pertaining to the present life; (2) the benefits pertaining to future lives; and (3) the benefit of the ultimate good.

 Measuring Farmers' Agroecological Resistance to Hurricane Mitch in Central America
The primary motivations for participating in the study were threefold: First, farmer-promoters and NGOs in the Campesino a Campesino Movement were eager to compare their farms to conventional farms because demonstrating a higher level of agroecological resistance would imply a higher level of sustainability.
The presence of Campesino a Campesino, made up of farmers and technicians experienced in farm experimentation and farmer to farmer training, also provided the opportunity to carry out an extensive, participatory, action research project in the low, medium and high impact areas of Hurricane Mitch.
While farmer-promoters within the Campesino a Campesino Movement have carried out on-farm experiments and have shared their knowledge across borders for thirty years, this was the first time farmers had ever collaborated on a regional research project.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2001.08.41
Epictetus calls this "holding the correct dogmata," inculcating "training in perception." Proper ethical action rests on having the right attitudes and opinions toward our own well-being (happiness); we must recognize the nature of evil as a moral response and not a condition of the world.
Although one might expect a discussion of Epictetus' theory of action, based on the threefold topoi [orexis, hormê, sunkatathesis], B instead examines the role of theory in Epictetus' ethics.
In short B concludes that Epictetus agrees with the tone and message of the early Stoic telos formulae but cannot be pinned down to any one formula.

 The Buddhist Conception of an Ecological Self
We shall consider here the threefold training and the seven factors of enlightenment, both central teachings particularly stressed by the Buddha during the final months before his death.
Enlightenment is not just freedom from suffering; it is freedom to act in a creative, compassionate manner, unlimited by the constraints of prior delusion in the form of conditioned reactivity linked to a false and overly self-referential conception of personal identity.
Through this praxis of cultivating the perfections of the enlightened being, the arhat or buddha, the human Buddhist is moving well beyond what it is simply to be human, just as he or she began that process well short of what it is to be human.

Cosmosis is a revolutionary duplicatible system of experiential learning which combines the ingestion of vibrationally coded potentised essences and the assimilation of transmitted coded frequencies, coupled with the sensory integration of alchemically coded information keys.
