Dr R Ganesh - ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ganesh R Namaskaara, I have already done my research and published my voluminous D. Litt., thesis on this before twenty years and the book has been revised and enlarged in the second edition as well. Shortly my exhaustive English book on this is going to be published. I have considered, compiled and analysed firsthand original sources of avadhaana in all languages, where it is practiced, directly and have given a detailed treatment with profuse examples as well. Here my thirty seven years of direct experience as an avadhaani having performed more than thousand avadhaana-s in various languages with very many designs a challenges have been utilized to forge authenticity into the findings and I have also consulted many illustrious avadhaani-s to get a bigger picture. Hope this would answer all inquiries of the seekers.

We are able to provide some assistance for travel. ### South Asia Graduate Student Conference XV The University of Chicago March 1st-2nd 2018 South Asia and the Limits of Humanistic Inquiry Keynote Speakers: Lorraine Daston (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science, The University of Chicago) Mahesh Rangarajan (Ashoka University) Humanistic inquiry has played an important role in shaping South Asia, and South Asia has played an important role in shaping humanistic inquiry. But how far back into the past and how far into the future does this hold true? The fifteenth annual South Asia Graduate Student Conference at the University of Chicago invites papers that address the limits?whether temporal, institutional or conceptual?of humanistic inquiry. The question we pose is a simple one: Why should scholarship on South Asia lead academic discussions that invest new agency in the environment and other non-human entities? Often unacknowledged in discussions of humanistic practices, South Asia has been the site of disciplinary regimes where distinctions of the human and non-human were instituted for the first time or at an unprecedented scale. The conference hopes to foreground South Asia as the site of a double exclusion: certain practices of knowledge were excluded from scholarly inquiry at the same time as animals, mountains, rivers and other non-human agents were written out of humanistic concerns. By bringing this double exclusion into view, we can see how the limiting of inquiry and the limitations of inquiry are distinct, yet related phenomena. Practices such as philological close-reading, the collection of big data, and ethnographic fieldwork have determined the scales and working objects of scholarship in subtle, yet powerful ways, and we solicit papers that explore the limits of such practices. How might we learn from different epistemologies of precolonial South Asia and how they divide the phenomena of the world? What can we gain by returning to moments when current divisions were not presumed to be inevitable or obvious? How have institutional changes in South Asia?whether enacted by political interests or techno-developmentalist visions?enforced disciplinary divisions and values? These questions are urgent as South Asia today also serves as a reminder that we can no longer afford to leave the agency of nonhumans out from our analyses. Catastrophes that have been put off by massive investments in engineering projects in the Global North have a much more immediate presence in South Asia. We invite contributions that are at the intersection of but not limited to literature, media studies, ecocriticism, history, religious studies, science studies, philosophy, anthropology, sound and visual studies. Please send 200 word abstracts to http://tiny.cc/SAGSC by December 31st, 2017. The conference will assist with travel and lodging for all graduate student participants.

Also, the last four verses of the Isa that begin with hiranmayena patrena etc. are Brhad-Aranyaka 5.15.1, thus the concluding portion of book 5. Note also that both belong to the White Yajurveda and that the Isa is the last chapter of the Vajasaneyi Samhita (Vajasaneya being a patronymic of Yajnavalkya).

The edition is not entirely satisfactory, nor is my translation. The k?uta? in 67.12 does however seem to suggest a bodily action, hence, sneezing. I am now not so certain about the gosa?k?uta? in 67.25 now that you raised some doubts concerning the etymology of k?ut. But maybe cows do sneeze after all! Best regards, Bill Mak -- Bill M.

I can see I should have been clearer: I was primarily interested in knowing whether ????? /k?uta /really exists in the sense 'awkward' (or similar) in Hindi or other NIA languages. Thanks to Dick Plukker for answering this in the negative (still a result). Several people have pointed out that sneezing is commonly seen as an omen. Even if it were always a bad omen, though, this sense wouldn't quite work here: in the T?jika texts where I have found the word, k?ut or k?uta (both forms occur) is used as a technical term in the specific context of planetary aspects (k?udd???i, k?utad???i). A not infrequent Sanskrit synonym is kr?rad???i. It did occur to me to wonder whether k?ut(a) might be of Persian derivation (it doesn't seem to be related to any Arabic term that I have found), but wondering is as far as I've got. Early sources gloss it in a way that might suggest that it would seem foreign to Indian readers (/tisro ?rid??a? k?ut?khy?? syu?/, etc). Lubom?r Ondra?ka helpfully suggested a look at the V?caspatyam. The entry there deals mostly with sneezing as an omen but does go on to mention the T?jika meaning briefly: > t?jakokt?y?m 2 arid???au ari?abde 355 p?? viv?ti? ?k?ut?khyad???y? na > ?ubha? tad?pi? | ?k?utad???y? ripor bhayam? n?laka? | (The reference is to the T?jikan?laka??h?.) This is the sense I'm after, but of course the V?caspatyam doesn't discuss etymology. If the sense is restricted to T?jika texts, though, that increases the likelihood of a comparatively recent foreign origin. Any further leads on this would be greatly appreciated!

This volume grew out of efforts to teach the textual criticism of Sanskrit works in theory and practice. It covers the general theory of textual criticism, its history and practice in Sanskrit studies, and tries to offer concrete examples of newly edited texts in order to show that Sanskrit editing is not so much a specialist knowledge, but a basic skill for Sanskrit readers. "To edit or not to edit" will appeal to specialists with interests in fields such as Sanskrit philology and textual criticism, history of Indology, old, medieval, and modern Sanskrit texts from Kashmir, as well as Indo-Persian studies. The book can be ordered at: http://www.bibliaimpex.com/pis http://www.adityaprakashan.com/pis With best wishes, Dragomir Dimitrov ________________________________________ Dr. habil.

The numbering system provided by Dominik would seem to explain the symbols in the example provided by Royce: ??||) would equal 45 rupees and 8 annas, and ??|||) would equal 22 rupees and 12 annas. In both cases, this is confirmed by the text added after the numerals.

Message-ID: <373FE003EA3D2949BCC16219C67CBBF77FD9CBF4@UCEXMBX04-I.canterbury.ac.nz> Dear colleagues, A collaborator and I are looking to find antecedents for the mathematical practice of using danda-like strokes to indicate fractional parts (1 danda=1/4, 2 dandas = 1/2, 3 dandas = 3/4). We have found something in the context of representing syllable length in Vedic notation. The only sources we could find concerned a discussion about unicode for "vaidika" symbols, called "vaidika apurnanka pada" (seethe bottom of p. 11 of http://unicode.org/L2/L2007/07396-vaidika.pdf) which appears, it seems, in the context of representing syllable length, to indicate1/4 and 1/2 of a matra kala for a single and double stroke respectively. (I attach a screen shot from a similar discussion about characters below). Does anyone have any further sources we could consult on this? Was this a widespread notational practise? Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

If you are not sure they'll like it, you can always download it first and have a read, it's fully Open Access: https://www.degruyter.com/viewbooktoc/product/488381?rskey=F3gieh&result=1 Indic Manuscript Cultures through the Ages Material, Textual, and Historical Investigations Ed. by Vergiani, Vincenzo / Cuneo, Daniele / Formigatti, Camillo Alessio Series: Studies in Manuscript Cultures 14 This collection of essays explores the history of the book in pre-modern South Asia looking at the production, circulation, fruition and preservation of manuscripts in different areas and across time. Edited by the team of the Cambridge-based Sanskrit Manuscripts Project and including contributions of the researchers who collaborated with it, it covers a wide range of topics related to South Asian manuscript culture: from the material dimension (palaeography, layout, decoration) and the complicated interactions of manuscripts with printing in late medieval Tibet and in modern Tamil Nadu, to reading, writing, editing and educational practices, from manuscripts as sources for the study of religious, literary and intellectual traditions, to the creation of collections in medieval India and Cambodia (one major centre of the so-called Sanskrit cosmopolis), and the formation of the Cambridge collections in the colonial period. The contributions reflect the variety of idioms, literary genres, religious movements, and social actors (intellectuals, scribes, patrons) of ancient South Asia, as well as the variety of approaches, interests and specialisms of the authors, and their impassionate engagement with manuscripts.

Begin forwarded message: *From: *Shiva Shankar *Subject: **Savitribai Phule Scholarships * *Date: *December 20, 2017 at 6:59:57 PM PST *To: *undisclosed-recipients: ; Educate! Agitate! Organise! Savitribai Phule Scholarships Empowering castes engaged in manual scavenging We are extremely priveleged to announce the Savitribai Phule Scholarships in time for Savitribai's birthdate on 3rd January. We request your help in creating a corpus, out of whose interest we will support young women from 'scavenging' castes go to college. Our wish is to contribute to the war against caste and untouchability, whose most criminal manifestation is manual scavenging, by helping them in their higher education. Our struggle will not have started in earnest till large numbers of young women from these castes are doctors, scientists, professors, and in positions of administative importance. We have made a beginning towards creating this corpus, thanks to extremely generous donations from Dr.Anandalakshmy and Mrs.Ganga-Parvathi. The scholarship scheme will be a part of Premalaya Social Development Society so that we can provide you with a reciept which you can use for income tax deduction under 80G. The scholarships will be managed by the folowing committee: R.Lakshmi (Janodayam), President Isaiah Addhanki (Premalaya), Secretary Shiva Shankar (Chennai Mathematical Institute), Member (Dr.B.Ravichandran (Dalit Camera) and G.Israel (Janodayam) will help in an advisory capacity.) Please forward this appeal to friends who might help! Thanking you, Sincerely, Shiva Shankar ----- The Savitribai Phule Scholarships - B.Ravichandran "Shudras and Ati-shudras (Dalits) now have the right to education, and through English, castesism can be destroyed and Brahminical teaching can be hurled away." - Savitribai Phule Indian society is divided into different castes. Ambedkar has observed, "Caste is not a physical object like a wall of bricks or a line of barbed wire which prevents the Hindus from co-mingling and which has therefore to be pulled down. Caste is a notion and it is a state of mind." It is in a smiliar spirit that Ambedkar has also said that in India, a person becomes a scavenger not because of his profession, but because of his birth, and this is completely irrespective of whether s/he wants to take up scavenging or not. Many Dalit writers have written the same. Omprakash Valmiki in his autobiography 'Joothan' writes: One day the headmaster Kaliram called me to his room and asked: 'Abey, what is your name?' 'Omprakash', I answered slowly and fearfully. Children used to feel scared just encountering the headmaster. The entire school was terrified of him. 'Chure ka?' Headmaster threw his second question at me. 'All right ... see the teak tree there? Go climb that tree. Break some twigs and make a broom. And sweep the whole school clean as a mirror. It is, after all, your family occupation.' It is not only the scavenging castes that face such discrimination, indeed no caste within the Dalit community can escape oppression in some form or the other. Going a little deeper, we also see various forms of discrimination amongst the Dalit castes too. In Tamil Nadu, Arunthathiyars suffer discrimination from Paraiyars and Pallars, and in turn oppress others. Therefore caste is a notion that needs to be fought across all sections of the society, Dalit or not. However, there are a few crucial differences between scavenging castes and other non-scavenging Dalit castes. These differences are hardly ever acknowledged or discussed within mainstream Dalit discourse. Scavenging is an occupation that has expanded because of governmental policies. Prasad and Wilson (2000) note in different writings that municipalities consciously recruit people from particular Dalit castes into scavenging jobs. In most states, people from scavenging castes speak a language different from the state's official language. Both these factors play a crucial role in suppressing people from these castes, and their struggles for rights and freedom. One example here is the scavenging caste in Kerala. Arunthathiyars do scavenging in Kerala, but Dalit discourse in Kerala has remained silent about them. Though scavenging castes have different histories, cultures, professions, yet these differences have been suppressed by mainstream Dalit discourse. Following Ambedkar, we say that the most important way to eradicate the idea, itself, of scavenging, and the resultant caste stigma, is to encourage the present generation to educate themselves. Education in recent years has become very expensive, hence we have come together to start a scheme that will support students who have qualified for a university education, but who lack financial resources. Although our primary focus would be women students from scavenging castes, we will also support students from other Dalit castes who face discrimination. ----- Savitribai Phule, our goddess of learning and knowledge - Savitribai was a "Vidya Jyoti" for all those who want to do something in the field of education. SAVITRI BAI PHULE - Mother of Women's Education In India http://dalitvision.blogspot.in/2013/03/savitri-bai-phule- mother-of-women.html .... Reading Paine?s famous book ?The Rights of Man? revolutionized the young mind of Jyotirao Phule and he in turn influenced the tender mind of Savitribhai, who also took an oath to help her husband in his fight for Social Revolution even at the cost of her life and comforts. They jointly opened the very first Girl?s School in 1848 against the vicious campaign launched by orthodox upper caste Hindus for such an act of the Phule couple, as education to girls was coded as unlawful in the laws of orthodox Hindus, although they claimed to possess the most knowledgeable books called ?VEDAS?, but practically treating Shudras & women worse than animals. No upper caste Hindu teacher came forward to teach in this newly opened Girl?s School in which Untouchable girls, besides Hindu girls were admitted. Therefore, Savitribai was appointed as Headmistress of this school on 1st January 1848 by Jyotirao Phule. This school was run from the house of a Brahmin in Budhwara Peth, with majority of Brahmin girl students. The orthodox Brahmins raised a great hue & cry against women's education including those of Shudra girls, which stood banned by Hindu scripture. ... they opened another school on 15th May 1848 in Untouchable?s colony and it was run by her widowed sister?in-law Smt. Suganabai. On this again the reactionaries raised objections and threatened Govinda Rao (Jyotirao ?s father) with dire consequences if he failed to dissociate himself from the activities of his son & daughter-in-law. So he asked the couple to leave his home as both of them refused to give up their missionary endeavor. ... ... She was first Indian women leader, who worked for the upliftment & dignity of women & children and was a staunch opponent of orthodox laws including Untouchability. She was mother to helpless orphans, a teacher to illiterates and solace to the suffering masses. She deserves to be honored as the ?Mother of Women Education in India? She is even now a source of inspiration for establishing a rule based on equality, justice and fraternity. Let us draw inspiration from her life & work and re-dedicate ourselves for the service of the down trodden and Dalits, besides those sections of society who are deprived of equal opportunities of life. ... Savitribai and her adopted son, Yashwant, opened a clinic to treat those affected by the worldwide Third Pandemic of the bubonic plague when it appeared in the area around Nallasopara in 1897. The clinic was established at stern outskirts of Pune, in an area free of infection. Savitribai personally took patients to the clinic where her son served them. While caring for the patients, she contracted the disease herself. She died from it on 10 March 1897 while serving a plague patient. ----- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Zysk. http://dx.doi.org/10.18732/H2ND44 Abstract This article forms a preliminary report on the work by an international group of scholars on Garga, an important early authority on astral science (jyoti?a). Reviewing past research on the texts associated with this figure, we focus especially on the earliest text, the G?rg?yajyoti?a (ca. first century CE?), a compendium of material on astral and terrestrial omens, ritual, horoscopy, and astronomy, that prefigures Var?hamihira's well-known B?hatsa?hit?. The contributions include text-critical observations based on select chapters, remarks on astral omens and their relevance to the possible dating of the text, and a discussion of the texts potential for the study of Hindu ritual. The article also begins to disambiguate the broader Garga corpus by including a chapter summary of a somewhat later Gargasa?hit?, containing mainly astronomical materials. This article concludes HSSA issue 5.1. Issue 5.2, which is in press, is a special themed issue, *Transmutations: Rejuvenation, Longevity, andImmortality Practices in South and Inner Asia, *guest-edited by Dagmar Wujastyk, Suzanne Newcombe, and Christ?le Barois.

This volume grew out of efforts to teach the textual criticism of Sanskrit works in theory and practice. It covers the general theory of textual criticism, its history and practice in Sanskrit studies, and tries to offer concrete examples of newly edited texts in order to show that Sanskrit editing is not so much a specialist knowledge, but a basic skill for Sanskrit readers. "To edit or not to edit" will appeal to specialists with interests in fields such as Sanskrit philology and textual criticism, history of Indology, old, medieval, and modern Sanskrit texts from Kashmir, as well as Indo-Persian studies.?

Shrinivas Tilak On Friday, December 29, 2017 3:39 PM, M?rcis Gas?ns via INDOLOGY wrote: Namaste, Sad news coming from Russia lately. Yesterday in Moscow?Andrey Zaliznyak?at age 83 was buried. If there is one man in XX century linguistics (who taught?Sanskrit as well in Moscow State Universityfor more than 50 years from time to time, mixing it with Old Persian, Arabic and Old Church Slavonic) whom I can compare to Panini, it is he. He learnedSanskrit from Renou in Paris. His article on classification of verbal roots (1975) is still outstanding and there is nothing of that kind written in French, German?or English - before or after. It takes Whitney and reclassifies his Sanskrit Roots in a logical way, adding meta-data, but typographically, instead of Panini's letter-anubandhas. His biggest work in field of Sanskrit, "Outline of Sanskrit Grammar" (1st. ed. 1978), reprinted 5 times, continues the structuralist approach. It's similar to Mayrhofer, Manfred.?Sanskrit-Grammatik?mit sprachvergleichenden Erl?uterungen. Series:Sammlung G?schen but goes beyond and adds classification in which exclusions become part of the rule, something I've not seen for last 2500 years in India. In 2015 I printed his "A Brief Outline of Sanskrit Grammar", that was circulating widely since 2004 as a 10-page handout. To understand it one needs to have brain an patience, a rare combination nowadays.Zaliznyak is mostly known as the man who reopened the Russian language, reading for the first time the 1000?years old birch bark letters. But for me, he remains to be my teacher of Sanskrit and it's a pity that the level reached in research of Sanskrit has not gone outside Russia. I've read tens and hundreds of manuals, textbooks and readers on Sanskrit. But only Panini is above Zaliznyak. But I never visited Pakistan, so we did not met?before. On the West only?George Cardona comes close. A month before his best colleague,?Ivanov?died. Ivanov's book "Sanskrit. Moscow: Nauka Pub. House, Central Dept. of Oriental Literature, 1968" was lately still quoted by Peter Scharf, Cardona's most talented?pupil. So in just 2 months, we have lost 2 of the most outstanding Russian Sanskrit scholars. From the old school, only Vera Kochergina (in her 93 years) remains the last keeper of fire in Moscow (and Russia). We've become deserted. Let me?quote a memory?of one of the students at that time: Then came the undergraduate courses. The first one was Sanskrit. We get a handout. Seven pages. Half a page for the writing system. The rest of it was *all* of the grammar, and a list of roots. What are we meant to do? ?Here is a stanza from the Mahabharata. Go.? And we did. Oh boy we did. It was magic, again, but now week in and week out. Did I become a Sanskritologist? Of course I didn?t. Was I able to construct, in a few hours, a data set for my phonology exam this year, more than ten years later, still using that handout? Yes I was. Photos were taken by me in 2014 and 2016:http://samskrtam.ru/zaliznyak/??Please let me know if there is a printed journal on Sanskrit where I could print my?Obituary.? I did not do it for Elizarenkova. So give me a chance to do it for Zaliznyak, if you can.?PhD.

Houben) Date: Sun, 31 Dec 17 13:47:06 +0100 Subject: =?utf-8?Q?[INDOLOGY]_Completion_of_the_first_critical_edition_of_the_Paippal=C4=81da-sa=E1=B9=81hit=C4=81,_Kolkata1997-2016?= Message-ID: Dear Indologists, I recently came in possession of vol. 4 of Dipak Bhattacharya?s edition of the Paippal?da-sa?hit? of the Atharvaveda (Kolkata : The Asiatic Society, 2016), as far as I know not yet announced on this list. It contains not only the first critical edition of the remaining k???as, 19 and 20, of the Paippal?da-sa?hit? (other k???as in vols. 1-3, Kolkata, Asiatic Society, 1997, 2008, 2011) but also a detailed, erudite introduction on the importance and implications of the Paippal?da-sa?hit? for the cultural history ? I would say, an alternative, pre-Manu or non-Manu cultural history ? of Vedism and of early Brahmanism and Hinduism. The observations of Prof. Bhattacharya, whom I felicitate with this important achievement, confirm, I believe, my statement on the emerging canonical ??kh?s of the Veda: ?The early development of the last of the major Vedic divisions to become independent, the Atharvavedic branches ? which, unlike their Yajurvedic and S?mavedic predecessors, do not get a chance to develop completely before they are almost entirely swept away by new ecological and religious developments ? lays in between these two, and shows not only evidence of a largely agricultural environment, but also of a general resource crunch: Brahmins who have given up an earlier semi-nomadic life-style in favour of a more settled one are experiencing increased difficulties to find stable niches for survival.? (p. 180 of ?From Fuzzy-Edged ?Family-Veda? to the Canonical ??khas of the Catur-Veda: Structures and Tangible Traces.? In: Vedic ??kh?s: Past, Present, Future. Proceedings of the Fifth International Vedic Workshop, Bucharest 2011, ed. by J.E.M. Houben, J. Rotaru and M. Witzel, p. 159-192. Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University, 2016.)

URL: From cchl2 at cam.ac.uk Sun Dec 31 17:56:29 2017 From: cchl2 at cam.ac.uk (Charles Li) Date: Sun, 31 Dec 17 23:26:29 +0530 Subject: [INDOLOGY] Pedantic Indic fonts Message-ID: Dear all, For the past while, I've been adding glyphs and features to the Indic fonts that I use, in order to make better manuscript transcriptions. I've now put these fonts on GitHub (https://github.com/chchch/PedanticIndic). There are currently three fonts: Pedantic Devan?gar?, Pedantic Malay?lam, and Pedantic Telugu. For more information and font samples, see https://chchch.github.io/PedanticIndic/. For all three fonts, you can input vowel signs as independent characters. This is useful for indicating when a vowel sign has been added or deleted. Some consonant conjunct forms can also be input independently. See the webpage above for details. Pedantic Devan?gar? is based on Sanskrit2003 (license unknown), with the addition of the p???ham?tr? vowel sign (U+094E), pu?pik? (U+A8F8), ?irorekha (U+A8FB), and the Jaina o?k?ra sign (U+A8FD). Pedantic Malay?lam is based on Rachana (OFL 1.1/GPLv3+), with the addition of the chillu m (U+0D54) and some conjunct forms. Pedantic Telugu is based on Pothana2000 (GPLv2+), with the addition of the valapalagilaka character. This is very much work-in-progress; feel free to leave comments and suggestions on the GitHub issues page (https://github.com/chchch/PedanticIndic/issues) or even to add your own contributions. Happy new year, Charles
