  • Folklore, Orality and Tradition
    Chapter-1 Introduction: Folklore, Orality and Tradition The study of folklore is inclusive of many different disciplines that overlap and intermingle with each other. Disciplines like anthropology, psychology, sociology, literary studies and women’s studies, linguistics, all come together to study the folklore in wider terms. It becomes essential to understand and analyse folk literature in the light of above disciplines to get a better understanding of the culture and history behind the given oral literature. Folklore surpasses boundaries of time in a way that it brings the culture and civilization of the past and merges it with the future for a better understanding. It continuously flows with the civilization by adopting different forms on the course of its journey. That way, it never gets struck in one time. It is not a static thing to be stored and preserved in any one form which struts itself as the ‘original. It is continuously and spontaneously being produced by the people who are blissfully ignorant of its various facets and its profound effect on the modern civilization. It is no more a thing of the rural or semi-urban masses but it is very much a part of the modern world. Many attempts have been made to define, categorize and theorize the term ‘folklore’ through words that can give it a concrete meaning. Folklore does not only include what is passed orally from one generation to another rather it encompasses everything including the cultural norms, behavioral codes, individual identities, feelings and emotions, religious beliefs, and experiences of not only a particular race or nationality but also of each individual living through it.

Most nath yogis claim adherence to the teachings of the early yogi, gorakִsanātha (in Hindi gorakhnath). the school of yoga most closely associated with the naths is the well-known one of hatִha yoga. in more general terms, the combined religious and yogic teachings of the naths are called the Nāth- mārga (the Path of the naths), the Yoga-mārga (the Path of yoga), or the Siddha- mata (the doctrine of the siddhas). the term siddha means “someone perfected or who has attained [spiritual] per- fection.” a siddha (from the sanskrit root SIDh, “to succeed, to perfect”) is an ascetic who has gained different perfections or “successes” (siddhis), the most famous being the eight magical siddhis achieved through intense yogic practice. the word nāth or nātha literally means “lord, master; protector, shelter,” and in the pres- ent context designates, on the one hand, a follower of the sect founded by or associ- ated with gorakhnath and, on the other hand, someone who has controlled the ix © 2011 State University of New York Press, Albany Lorenzen_Yogi:SUNY 6 x 9 9/8/11 3:47 PM Page x x daVid n.

    explorations Vol. 4 (1), April 2020 E-journal of the Indian Sociological Society Research in Progress: Radical-Pragmatic Debate over Reservation: A Study of the Naths of West Bengal and Assam Author(s): Kunal Debnath Source: Explorations, ISS e-journal, Vol. 4 (1), April 2020, pp. 135-148 Published by: Indian Sociological Society 135 explorations Vol. 4 (1), April 2020 E-journal of the Indian Sociological Society Radical-Pragmatic Debate over Reservation: A Study of the Naths of West Bengal and Assami --- Kunal Debnath Abstract The Nath sampradaya (community), one of the ancient communities in India, comprises of two groups – the ascetics Yogis and the householders. The householders later formed an endogamous caste known as Yogi or Jogi in West Bengal and Assam and they commonly use their surname ‘Nath’ or ‘Debnath’. The Naths of these two states believe that they are the descendants of a priestly community, but, later degraded by the then king of medieval Bengal. The Naths have been showing their resistance against the brahmanical society since the late 20th century CE and projecting themselves as the Rudraja Brahmana having every right to be a priest. Inclusion of this caste in the OBC list led to an intra- community identity conflict and contention over the reservation. The ‘radical’ Naths want to forsake the OBC status, whereas the ‘pragmatic’ Naths want to retain the OBC status. Key words: Caste association, Nath sampradaya, OBC, Rudraja Brahmana, Yogi Introduction The Nath sampradaya has been an age-old community of the Indian subcontinent. The householder Naths of West Bengal and Assam formed an endogamous caste known as Yogi or Jogiii.

  • Sanskrit, Related Languages of Hindi, Bengali, and Nepali
    GLOSSARY The chapters in this volume contain words from several languages: Bengali, Hindi, Nepali, Sanskrit, and Tibetan. Many Sanskrit and Sanskrit-related words are used in Bengali, Hindi and Nepali, so there is much overlap in the vocabulary related to renunciation in these Sanskrit-related languages. Acknowledging this overlap, we include Hindi, Bengali, and Nepali terms in a single list for Sanskrit-related languages. Because Tibetan and Sanskrit belong to different language families, we list Tibetan terms in a separate list. Where alternative Sanskritized spellings appear in different chapters, we indicate both variants (samsar I a; jnan I a; tapas I ya; vairag I ya). Three Arabic-derived words (khilaphat, majzub, mazar) are included in the first list, as they are used by Bengali-speaking Bauls.

  • Outspoken Women: Representations of Female Voices in a Rajasthani Folklore Community
    Oral Tradition, 12/1 (1997): 103-133 Outspoken Women: Representations of Female Voices in a Rajasthani Folklore Community Ann Grodzins Gold Gender Roles in Oral Performances The most superficial hearing of women’s speech in Rajasthani oral performance traditions counters some prevailing gender stereotypes.1 In these traditions we find neither the modesty and “embarrassment” (lj, arm) prescribed as appropriate, ornamental female behavior within the culture, nor the voicelessness and submissiveness depicted in many outsider views of South Asian women from orientalist to feminist.2 I lived in a single village in Rajasthan, North India, for almost two years, and I recorded Rajasthani women’s songs on many and varied 1 Many heartfelt thanks to Joyce Flueckiger, Peter Hook, and Jyotsna Kapur for especially helpful and thoughtful readings of this essay in earlier drafts. Once again I must express my substantial debts and enormous gratitude to Joseph C. Miller, Jr., Bhoju Ram Gujar, and the women of Ghatiyali for generosities beyond reckoning. 2 See Chandra Mohanty’s original, acute critique of Western feminist authors who construct “third world women” as a “homogeneous ‘powerless’ group often located as implicit victims of particular socioeconomic systems” (Mohanty 1991:57). See also Stephens 1989 and Visweswaran 1994 for further insights into problems and limitations within the prevailing scholarship on Indian women’s powers and voices. For testimony to South Asian women’s expressive oral performances as commentary, subversion, and resistance, see, among others: Narayana Rao 1991; Ramanujan 1991; Mukta 1994; Raheja and Gold 1994; Skinner, Holland, and Adhikari 1994; Raheja 1995; Holland and Skinner 1995; Narayan 1996.
