Download or read book The Sacred Books of the East Vol 48 Classic Reprint written by F. Max Müller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 828 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sacred Books of the East, Vol. 48 The present translation of the Sribhashya claims to be faithful on the whole, although I must acknowledge that I have aimed rather at making it intelligible and, in a certain sense, readable than scrupulously accurate. If I had to rewrite it, I should feel inclined to go even further in the same direction. Indian Philosophy would, in my Opinion, be more readily and widely appreciated than it is at present, if the translators of philosophical works had been somewhat more concerned to throw their versions into a form less strange and repellent to the western reader than literal renderings from technical Sanskrit must needs be in many passages. I am not unaware of the peculiar dangers of the plan now advocated - among which the most obvious is the temptation it offers to the translator of deviating from the text more widely than regard for clearness would absolutely require. And I am conscious of having failed in this respect in more than one instance. In other cases I have no doubt gone astray through an imperfect understanding of the author's meaning. The fact is, that as yet the time has hardly come for fully adequate translations of comprehensive works of the type of the Sribhashya, the authors of which wrote with reference in many cases tacit - to an immense and highly technical philosophical literature which is only just beginning to be studied, and comprehended in part, by European scholars.

Of Nepal are always negligently transcribed and abound with corrupt passages, which it is often very difficult to detect and restore. My printed text leaves many obscure lines which will have to be cleared up hereafter by more skilful emendations. I have given in the notes to the translation some further emendations of my own, and I have also added several happy conjectures which continental scholars have kindly suggested tf me by letter; and I gladly take this opportunity of adding in a foot-note some which I received too late to insert in their proper places 1.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sacred Books of the East, Vol. 23: Translated by Various Oriental Scholars For a satisfactory translation of these texts, the etymo logical and comparative method is generally considered as the best or as the only possible one, on account of the entire absence of any traditional interpretation. I have tried, however, to reduce the sphere of etymological guess work to its narrowest limits, with the help of different Pahlavi, Persian, and Sanskrit translations, which are as yet unpublished, and have been neglected by former trans lators. I found such translations for the Sirozahs for Vasts I, VI, VII, XI, XXIII, XXIV, and for the Nyayis1 (besides the already published translations of Vasts XXI and XXII).

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sacred Books and Early Literature of the East, Vol. 10: India and Buddhism It has been pointed out by our Western thinkers that in such a system there is very little use for God; there is per haps no room for him. Hence Buddhism has been frequently accused of being a form of atheism. Its believers deny this; they are willing to accept any number of deities. Only their thought centers not on gods, but on man, on man's progress rising or falling through many transmigrations of body, but always capable of attaining superiority to and thus escape from the wheel of life. Man, the immaterial spirit, may rise above both the material and the immaterial world, and thereby reach Nirvana.

Download or read book The Sacred Book of the East Vol 41 written by F. Max Muller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sacred Book of the East, Vol. 41: Translated by Various Oriental Scholars The first of the three Kand'as contained in the present volume continues the dogmatic discussion of the different forms of Soma-sacrifice, in connection with which two important ceremonies, the Vagapeya and Ragasfiya, are considered. From a ritualistic point of View, there is a radical difference between these two ceremonies. The Ragasuya, or 'inauguration of a king, ' strictly Speaking, is not a Soma-sacrifice, but rather a complex religious cere mony which includes, amongst other rites, the performance of a number of Soma-sacrifices of different kinds. The Vagapeya, or drink of strength' (or, perhaps, 'the race on the other hand, is recognised as one of the different forms (samstha) which a single Soma-sacrifice may take. As a matter of fact, however, this form hardly ever occurs, as most of the others constantly do, in connection with, and as a constituent element of, other ceremonies, but is almost exclusively performed as an independent sacrifice. The reason why this sacrifice has received a special treatment in the Brahmana, between the Agni shtoma and the Régasfiya, doubtless is that, unlike the other forms of Soma-sacrifice, it has some striking features of its own which stamp it, like the Ragasfiya, as a political ceremony. According to certain ritualistic authorities 1, indeed, the performance of the Vagapeya Should be arranged in much the same way as that of the Ragasuya; that is, just as the central ceremony of the Ragasuya, Viz. The Abhishekaniya or consecration, is preceded and followed by certain other Soma-days, so the Vagapeya should be preceded and followed by exactly corresponding cere monies.
