During 1961 Census, on the initiative of my illustrious predecessor Shri A. Mitra, a study of more than 500 villages was taken up. As far as possible these villages were chosen to represent adequately geographical, occupational and ethnic diversity. The brief account of the test of selection is furnished here. (a) The first group of villages was so selected that each of them would contain one dominant community with one predominating occupation; for instance, fisher­ men, forest workers, jhum cultivators, potters, weavers, salt-makers, quarry workers, etc. A village should have a minimum population of 400, the optimum being 500 and 700. (b) The second group of villages was to be of numerically prominent Scheduled Tribes of the State. Each village would represent a particular tribe. The minimum population should be 400, the optimum being 500 and 700. (c) The third group of villages should each be of fair size, of an old and settleo character and contain variegated occupations and be, if possible, multi-ethnic in composition. By fair size was meant a population of 500 and 700 persons or more. The village should mainly depend on agriculture and be su.fficiently away from the major sources of modern communication such as the pistrict administrative head­ quarters and business centres. It should be roughly a dais journey from the above places. The villages were to be selected with an eye to variation in terms 9f size, proximity to city and other means of modern communication, nearness to hills jungles and major rivers. Thus there was to be a regional distribution throughout the State of this category of villages. If, however, a particular district contained significant ecological variations within its area, more than one village in the district might be selected to study the special adjustments to them. While the surveys in most of the villages were undertaken by the qualified personnel appointed by the Census Organization, in some cases reputed scholars were invited to take up projects in collaboration with the Census Organisation. I am glad that Prof. (Miss) Duttag~pta offered to take up a village in West Bengal for intensive socio-economic survey. viii For the purpose of the survey a schedule "drawn up by the Census Organization was made available to Prof. (Miss) Duttagupta. It was. however, entirely left to her discretion to make necessary modifications in the schedule. The Social Studies Unit in the Office of the Superintendent of Census Operations, West Bengal, under the guidance of Shri S. Sinha collaborated with her in this project to a considerable extent. This report is a testimony to a useful collaboration between a government organization and private research. My thanks to Prof. (Miss) Duttagupta and the colleagues in the Census Organization who have collaborated with her in the pre­ paration of tlus monograph. A. Chandra Sekhar Registmr GeneraL, India. PREFACE During my stay abroad, I was constantly made to feel at different seminars on Indian Sociology held at the School of Oriental & African Studies and the London School of Economics & Political Science, that I had not seen 'village India' from within. It is indeed true; I spent mostly in towns in Bengal and in the city of Calcutta and had visited a village in East Bengal only once. My knowledge of the Indian social institutions, particularly in the village level, was thus never primary. So, on my return home in 1961, I wrote a personal letter to Sri Asok Mitra, then Registrar General, Government of India, expressing my desire to undertake a village survey w.ithin the competence of the Census department of the Government of India. Mr. Mitra was extremely kind to concede to my wishes. The present monograph is the outcome of a near-adventure request to the Registrar General in 1961. My full-time teaching assignment at the University of Calcutta stood in the way of doing the field-work in the traditional way, i.e., in one long and single spell. Instead, I had to spread it over a period of time, doing the field-work at interval~. I started doing it during the summer holidays, May-June in 1962. I could not be at it again till January 1964 as I was taken seriously ill for months together in 1963. Since January 1964, I visited the village quite a number of times, during short holidays and week-ends. By my repeated visits I was able to develop an informal relationship with the members of the village and it helped me in establishing a rapport with the villagers. Without this rapport it is not easy to see village India from within. My work at Chandrabhag (the village under survey) had really been a pleasure, an experience too. But for this field study in the village my knowledge and conception of Indian social realities would have remained incomplete and absolutely half-done. I sincerely thank all the people of Chandrabhag for their kind and the most ungrudging co-operation with me in my work. lowe my debt of affection specially to Sri Nishit Ghosal, Sri Deepak Banerjee and Sm. Arati Banerjee for their constant help throughout the period of survey. I will be failing in my duties if I do not offer my sincerest thanks to the authorities of the Sreekrishna Girls' Higher Secondary School for providing me with accommodation in the School quarters during the period of my survey. Last but not least, lowe my debt of gratitude to the Census department, West Bengal, in general, and to Sri S. Sinha, in particular, for helping me in different ways. Though my investigation in the village was done primarily according to the schedules supplied by the Census department, I took occasional liberty in inserting extra-schedule information whenever possible. I hope this has not marred the scientific rigour of the village study. Bela Duttagupta CONTENTS vii FOREWORD ix PREFACE xi CONTENTS 1 CHAPTER I 3 The Village The setting-3. Physical aspect-3. So:1-3.

    Sample Checking Of Dise Data Of 2009-10 In Madhya Pradesh REPORT Submitted to The Commissioner Rajya Shiksha Kendra BHOPAL – 462001 Submitted by Dr. Sandeep Joshi Professor Madhya Pradesh Institute of Social Science Research (An ICSSR Institute) 6, Bharatpuri Administrative Zone, Ujjain – 456010 Acknowledgement The data collected through DISE is very important as it is used for policy formulation and programme implementation right from the grassroots level to the national level. Hence, the reliability and accuracy of the data is also of paramount importance. The present study of random sample checking of DISE Data of 2009-10 of Madhya Pradesh is an effort in that direction. It seeks to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of DISE data collection and the variations in the two sets of data, viz., DISE and Post Enumeration Survey (PES) using a structured schedule. I take this opportunity to thank Shri Manoj Jhalani IAS, Commissioner, Rajya Shiksha Kendra, Bhopal for instituting this study and extending financial support to carry out this fruitful academic endeavour in the State of Madhya Pradesh. I am also thankful to Shri Deepak Varma, State DISE In- charge, Rajya Shiksha Kendra, Bhopal for extending all possible support for successfully conducting the PES in four districts of Madhya Pradesh. The dedicated work of my research team (Ms. Preeti Kathuria, Mr. G.K. Rathore, Mr. Ashok Yadav, Mr. Neelesh Ambedkar, Mr. Praveen Gyani and Mr. Rajkumar Gyani) made it possible to complete the work within the stipulated time. I thank them all. I am also thankful to the Headmasters, BRCCs and CRCCs concerned along with district officials for their cooperation during the course of the field work in their respective districts.

  • A Work and Its Shapers the Most High Scripture of the Rectifying Methods
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by ASU Digital Repository A Work and its Shapers The Most High Scripture of the Rectifying Methods of the Three Heavens in Early Medieval China by Timothy Charles Swanger A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved January 2019 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee Stephen Bokenkamp, Chair Robert Ford Campany Huaiyu Chen Young Oh Stephen West ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2019 ABSTRACT Religions, following Max Müller, have often been seen by scholars in religious studies as uniform collections of beliefs and practices encoded in stable “sacred books” that direct the conduct of religious actors. These texts were the chief focus of academic students of religion through much of the 20th century, and this approach remains strong in the 21st. However, a growing chorus of dissidents has begun to focus on the lived experience of practitioners and the material objects that structure that experience, and some textual scholars have begun extending this materialist framework to the study of texts. This dissertation is a contribution in that vein from the field of Daoist studies. Now split between two separate texts, the Most High Scripture of the Rectifying Methods of the Three Heavens began as a 4th-century collection of apocalyptic predictions and apotropaic devices designed to deliver a select group of Chinese literati to the heavens of Highest Clarity. Later editors during the early medieval period (ca. 220-589 CE) took one of two paths: for their own reasons, they altered the Rectifying Methods to emphasize either the world’s end or its continuation.
