Buddhist Values in the Pli Jtakas, with Particular Reference to the Theme Of Buddhist values in the P!li J!takas, with particular reference to the theme of renunciation Justin Meiland Linacre College Oxford University Thesis submitted for Doctor of Philosophy (D.Phil) Trinity term 2003 Acknowledgements I am extremely thankful for the encouragement and advice given to me by my supervisor, Richard Gombrich, who has always urged me to have conviction in my work and allowed me the freedom to follow my interests. I am enormously grateful to Louise Nelstrop for her immeasurable support over the last four years and her tireless help with proofreading. Her generosity and kindness has been overwhelming. Thanks must also go to William Pruitt for his generous help with proofreading. I would especially like to thank my parents for their support throughout my education and these last four years of research. Without their love, this thesis would never have been written. Finally, I would like to thank the Arts and Humanities Research Board for funding my research. i Abbreviations All P!li texts cited are P!li Text Society editions, unless otherwise stated. For the J!takas, I use the P!li Text Society edition by Fausbøll (1877-1896), although I also refer to the Cha""hasa#g!yana for variant readings. For the Mah!bh!rata and R!m!ya$a, I use the Poona and Baroda critical editions respectively, unless otherwise stated. All translations of the J!takas are my own, except for the Vessantara J!taka, for which I use Margaret Cone’s translation in Cone and Gombrich 1977. I also cite (with occasional alterations) the Princeton translations of the R!m!ya$a by Goldman (1984), Goldman and Goldman (1996), Lefeber (1994) and Pollock (1986, 1991).

[…] In the study of Buddhism, however, this suggestion might still appear to be something new. Steven Collins 1998:121. 1.1 Aims of the thesis This thesis sets out to explore the theme of renunciation in the Jåtakas, or in Påli the Jåtaka††hava!!anå, one of the largest and most important collections of story literature in Theravåda Buddhism. Literally meaning ‘birth stories’, jåtakas are narratives that depict the past lives of the Buddha when he was still a Bodhisatta (‘one who aspires to awakening’) or Mahåsatta (‘great being’).1 Despite the vast popularity of the Jåtakas in Theravåda Buddhism, as well as the quantity and diversity of their material, the thematic content of this corpus of texts has largely been neglected. Indeed, the paucity of thematically based research on the Jåtakas reflects a general tendency in academia to overlook the importance of narrative texts as sources on Buddhist values. The present thesis hopes to contribute towards redressing this academic lacuna. The focus of the thesis is on the theme of renunciation in the Jåtakas and, in particular, on how renunciate values relate to the conventional world. Scholars have often noted that Buddhist renunciates have an ambiguous relationship with the society that they renounce, one that involves both conflict and unity. This thesis aims to explore that relationship 1 Bodhi-satta is the same as Sanskrit bodhi-sakta. Buddhist Sanskrit texts, however, use the term bodhi- sattva (‘enlightenment being’), which appears to be a wrong back formation from the Prakrit.

  • Early Buddhist Metaphysics: the Making of a Philosophical Tradition
    EARLY BUDDHIST METAPHYSICS This book provides a philosophical account of the major doctrinal shift in the history of early Theravada tradition in India: the transition from the earliest stratum of Buddhist thought to the systematic and allegedly scholastic philosophy of the Pali Abhidhamma movement. Conceptual investigation into the development of Buddhist ideas is pursued, thus rendering the Buddha’s philosophical position more explicit and showing how and why his successors changed it. Entwining comparative philosophy and Buddhology, the author probes the Abhidhamma’s shift from an epistemologically oriented conceptual scheme to a metaphysical worldview that is based on the concept of dhamma. She does so in terms of the Aristotelian tradition and vis-à-vis modern philosophy, exploiting Western philo- sophical literature from Plato to contemporary texts in the fields of philosophy of mind and cultural criticism. This book not only demonstrates that a philosophical inquiry into the conceptual foundations of early Buddhism can enhance our understanding of what philosophy and religion are qua thought and religion; it also shows the value of fresh perspectives for traditional Buddhology. Combining philosophically rigorous investigation and Buddhological research criteria, Early Buddhist Metaphysics fills a significant gap in Buddhist scholar- ship’s treatment of the conceptual development of the Abhidhamma. Noa Ronkin received her PhD from the University of Oxford. She is currently a lecturer in the Introduction to the Humanities Programme and a Research Fellow at the Center for Buddhist Studies, Stanford University. Her research interests include a range of issues associated with Indian Theravada Buddhist philosophy and psychology, the Abhidhamma tradition and comparative Indian philosophy.

  • The Teaching of Buddha”
    THE TEACHING OF BUDDHA WHEEL OF DHARMA The Wheel of Dharma is the translation of the Sanskrit word, “Dharmacakra.” Similar to the wheel of a cart that keeps revolving, it symbolizes the Buddha’s teaching as it continues to be spread widely and endlessly. The eight spokes of the wheel represent the Noble Eightfold Path of Buddhism, the most important Way of Practice. The Noble Eightfold Path refers to right view, right thought, right speech, right behavior, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right meditation. In the olden days before statues and other images of the Buddha were made, this Wheel of Dharma served as the object of worship. At the present time, the Wheel is used internationally as the common symbol of Buddhism. Copyright © 1962, 1972, 2005 by BUKKYO DENDO KYOKAI Any part of this book may be quoted without permission.

    Early Buddhist and Confucian Concepts of Filial Piety: A Comparative Study * Guang Xing [email protected] ere are only a few modern scholars who have made comparative stud- ies on Buddhist and Confucian concepts of lial piety. Michihata Ryoshu and Zhong Yulian have done so, but they both discuss the lial concepts of the two schools separately, one aer the other. erefore, in a real sense, theirs are not comparative studies, because they neither discuss the simi- larities and differences nor analyze the causes behind them. In this paper, I mainly conne myself to the early texts of both schools of thought, in which we can only nd the basic denition of the concept of lial piety and how the concept has been developed and changed in later writings. Aer sum- marizing and analyzing the concepts of lial piety in both Buddhism and Confucianism, I have found that there are ve similarities and three differ- ences between the two schools; furthermore, Confucianism has two aspects which are not shared by Buddhism. e reasons behind these are that lial piety is the foundation as well as the highest norm in Confucian ethics and all morality and civilization come from it. By contrast, lial piety in Bud- dhism is not the foundation of its ethics, although it is an important ethical teaching of the Buddha. Instead, the concepts of karma and samsāra. are the bases of Buddhist ethics. *e Chinese version has been published in the Universal Gate Buddhist Journal, No. (), -. is English translation is a revised and expanded version with additions and corrections.
