What were three major issues of reconstruction?

the phoenicians, based on a narrow coastal strip of the levant, put their excellent seafaring skills to good use and created a network of colonies and trade centres across the ancient mediterranean. their major trade routes were by sea to the greek islands, across southern europe, down the atlantic coast of africa, and up to ancient britain. in addition, arabia and india were reached via the red sea, and vast areas of western asia were connected to the homeland via land routes where goods were transported by caravan. by the 9th century bce, the phoenicians had established themselves as one of the greatest trading powers in the ancient world.

atman means 'eternal self'. the atman refers to the real self beyond ego or false self. it is often referred to as 'spirit' or 'soul' and indicates our true self or essence which underlies our existence.

there are many interesting perspectives on the self in hinduism ranging from the self as eternal servant of god to the self as being identified with god. the understanding of the self as eternal supports the idea of reincarnation in that the same eternal being can inhabit temporary bodies.

the idea of atman entails the idea of the self as a spiritual rather than material being and thus there is a strong dimension of hinduism which emphasises detachment from the material world and promotes practices such as asceticism. thus it could be said that in this world, a spiritual being, the atman, has a human experience rather than a human being having a spiritual experience.
