  • Lineage (genetic)

    A genetic lineage is a series of mutations which connect an ancestral genetic type (allele, haplotype, or haplogroup) to derivative type. In cases where the genetic tree is very bushy the order of mutations in the lineage is mostly known, examples are the order of mutations between E1b1b and E1b1b1a1a for the human Y-chromosome. In other instances the order of mutations may not be known, an example is the sequence of mutations between the L0/L1 split for human mitochondrial DNA and the basal L0 or L1 nodes.

    A genetic lineage can be contrasted with an evolutionary lineage in that a genetic lineage applies to a locus. An example of the difference is that ancient African ape evolved into proto-gorilla and a chimpanzee-human ancestor, which further evolved into chimps and humans. While most human lineages coalesce with chimpanzee lineages, which then converge with gorilla lineages, a few human lineages coalesce with gorilla lineages and then converge with chimpanzee lineages (or chimpanzee lineages that coalesce with gorilla lineages and then converge with human lineages). This occurs because the speciation that marks evolutionary lineages occur as non-discrete events that are composed of 10s to 10000s of individuals in each developing taxa. This allows many variant lineages to be passed millions of years (See 2N-rule; 2 * 20 year/generations * 10,000 inds * ploidy) allows multiple deeply rooted lineages to be passed millions of years, over 2 or more speciation events. Such lineages may randomly undergo fixation at any time.

    Lineage (Buddhism)

    A lineage in Buddhism is a line of transmission of the Buddhist teaching that is "theoretically traced back to the Buddha himself." The acknowledgement of the transmission can be oral, or certified in documents. Several branches of Buddhism, including Zen and Tibetan Buddhism maintain records of their historical teachers. These records serve as a validation for the living exponents of the tradition.

    The historical authenticity of Buddhist lineage is questionable. Stephen Batchelor has claimed, speaking about specifically Japanese Zen lineage, "the historicity of this “lineage” simply does not withstand critical scrutiny." Erik Storlie has noted that transmission "is simply false on historical grounds."Edward Conze said "much of the traditions about the early history of Ch’an are the inventions of a later age."

    Vinaya

    In the lineage of the vinaya, the requirements for ordination as a monk or a nun include the presence of at least five other monks, one of whom must be a fully ordained preceptor, and another an acharya (teacher). This lineage for ordaining nuns became extinct in many Buddhist countries. When Ani Tenzin Palmo wanted full ordination for example, she had to travel to Hong Kong to receive it.

    Lineage

    Always remember, story uh, laughter, remember your family
    I was six years old when I fell down on Spencer Ave.
    It was my aunt suzy’s house and I still can see the bruise
    I remember grand daddy even though I never sat on his knee
    He taught me life was culture baby
    My uncle David they call him Jello the only man that could say hello
    And it sound like angels singing in your ear
    And even though they all passed away I still long for their company
    And I wonder God why couldn’t they stay
    So I gotta remember though I’m young that my time will surely come
    And now I gotta try to keep it together as I watch my family pass me by
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember your family
    I was twelve years old when my uncle Andrew had got sick
    And Jaundice turn to HIV and then his body quit
    It was strange the numbness I felt, watching him all dressed in black
    Wasn’t thinking about what he gave up but about all I lacked
    So I gotta believe, that if I give I can live through eternity
    And I gotta know, if I don’t share myself know one will ever know
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember
    So remember, so remember, so remember your family
    Repeat
    I always yeah remember what my mama told me
    I always yeah, always take the bitter with the sweet
    I always yeah, remember what auntie told me
    I always yeah, even when it’s hard be a lady baby
    I always yeah, remember what grand daddy said
    I always yeah, you got to lay in the bed you make
    I always yeah, remember what my uncle taught me
    I always yeah, don’t give up when it gets hard keep pushing baby
    And you got to, remember everything they taught you
    And you got to, hold on to what is true
    And you got to, never forget where you coming from
    And you got to, and you got to, and remember
    Remember, I said one more time, remember oh
    Remember, so remember, so remember (repeat)
