[...] that area around Peshawar, where [...] there is most reason to believe was the original home of Niya Prakrit. That conclusion, which was reached for other reasons, is thus confirmed by the distribution of the modern dialects. (Burrow 1936) Under this name I propose to include those inscriptions of Aśoka which are recorded at Shahbazgaṛhi and Mansehra in the Kharoṣṭhī script, the vehicle for the remains of much of this dialect. To be included also are the following sources: the Buddhist literary text, the Dharmapada found in Khotan, written likewise in Kharoṣṭhī [...]; the Kharoṣṭhī documents on wood, leather, and silk from Caḍ́ota (the Niya site) on the border of the ancient kingdom of Khotan, which represented the official language of the capital Krorayina [...].

  • An Introduction to Indic Scripts
    An Introduction to Indic Scripts Richard Ishida W3C [email protected] HTML version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.html PDF version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.pdf Introduction This paper provides an introduction to the major Indic scripts used on the Indian mainland. Those addressed in this paper include specifically Bengali, Devanagari, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil, and Telugu. I have used XHTML encoded in UTF-8 for the base version of this paper. Most of the XHTML file can be viewed if you are running Windows XP with all associated Indic font and rendering support, and the Arial Unicode MS font. For examples that require complex rendering in scripts not yet supported by this configuration, such as Bengali, Oriya, and Malayalam, I have used non- Unicode fonts supplied with Gamma's Unitype. To view all fonts as intended without the above you can view the PDF file whose URL is given above. Although the Indic scripts are often described as similar, there is a large amount of variation at the detailed implementation level. To provide a detailed account of how each Indic script implements particular features on a letter by letter basis would require too much time and space for the task at hand. Nevertheless, despite the detail variations, the basic mechanisms are to a large extent the same, and at the general level there is a great deal of similarity between these scripts. It is certainly possible to structure a discussion of the relevant features along the same lines for each of the scripts in the set.

  • Origin of the Numerals Al-Biruni's Testimony
    Origin of the numerals Al-Biruni’s testimony Ahmed Boucenna Laboratoire DAC, Department of Physics, Faculty of Sciences, Ferhat Abbas University 19000 Stif, Algeria [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The origin of the numerals that we inherited from the arabo-Islamic civilization remained one enigma. The hypothesis of the Indian origin remained, with controversies, without serious rival. It was the dominant hypothesis since more of one century. Its partisans found to it and constructed a lot of arguments. The testimonies of the medieval authors have been interpreted to its advantage. The opposite opinions have been dismissed and ignored. An amalgam between the history of our modern numerals and the Indian mathematics history is made. Rational contradictions often passed under silence. A meticulous observation of the numerals permits to affirm that our numerals are in fact more or less modified Arabic letters. The "Ghubari" shape of the numerals shows that the symbol of a numeral corresponds to the Arabic letter whose numerical value is equal to this numeral. The numerals don't have a simple resemblance with some Arabic letters, but every number looks like the Arabic letter whose numerical value is equal to this numeral. The elements of the ''Abjadi'' calculation gives us a theoretical support, independent of the letters and numerals, witch explains our observation. Besides a re-lecture of the testimonies of the medieval authors, particularly the testimony of Al-Biruni, that is probably at the origin of all others testimonies speaking of the Indian origin of the numerals, is in agreement with the fact that our numerals are Arabic letters.

Introduction Kharosthi was one of the major scripts of the Indian subcontinent in the early period. In the list of 64 scripts occurring in the Lalitavistara (3rd century CE), a text in Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit, Kharosthi comes second after Brahmi. Thus both of them were considered to be two major scripts of the Indian subcontinent. Both Kharosthi and Brahmi are first encountered in the edicts of Asoka in the 3rd century BCE. 2. Discovery of the script and its Decipherment The script was first discovered on one side of a large number of coins bearing Greek legends on the other side from the north western part of the Indian subcontinent in the first quarter of the 19th century. Later in 1830 to 1834 two full inscriptions of the time of Kanishka bearing the same script were found at Manikiyala in Pakistan. After this discovery James Prinsep named the script as ‘Bactrian Pehelevi’ since it occurred on a number of so called ‘Bactrian’ coins. To James Prinsep the characters first looked similar to Pahlavi (Semitic) characters.

  • The Formal Kharoṣṭhī Script from the Northern Tarim Basin in Northwest
    Acta Orientalia Hung. 73 (2020) 3, 335–373 DOI: 10.1556/062.2020.00015 Th e Formal Kharoṣṭhī script from the Northern Tarim Basin in Northwest China may write an Iranian language1 FEDERICO DRAGONI, NIELS SCHOUBBEN and MICHAËL PEYROT* L eiden University Centre for Linguistics, Universiteit Leiden, Postbus 9515, 2300 RA Leiden, Th e Netherlands E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; *Corr esponding Author: [email protected] Received: February 13, 2020 •Accepted: May 25, 2020 © 2020 The Authors ABSTRACT Building on collaborative work with Stefan Baums, Ching Chao-jung, Hannes Fellner and Georges-Jean Pinault during a workshop at Leiden University in September 2019, tentative readings are presented from a manuscript folio (T II T 48) from the Northern Tarim Basin in Northwest China written in the thus far undeciphered Formal Kharoṣṭhī script. Unlike earlier scholarly proposals, the language of this folio can- not be Tocharian, nor can it be Sanskrit or Middle Indic (Gāndhārī). Instead, it is proposed that the folio is written in an Iranian language of the Khotanese-Tumšuqese type. Several readings are proposed, but a full transcription, let alone a full translation, is not possible at this point, and the results must consequently remain provisional. KEYWORDS Kharoṣṭhī, Formal Kharoṣṭhī, Khotanese, Tumšuqese, Iranian, Tarim Basin 1 We are grateful to Stefan Baums, Chams Bernard, Ching Chao-jung, Doug Hitch, Georges-Jean Pinault and Nicholas Sims-Williams for very helpful discussions and comments on an earlier draft. We also thank the two peer-reviewers of the manuscript. One of them, Richard Salomon, did not wish to remain anonymous, and espe- cially his observation on the possible relevance of Khotan Kharoṣṭhī has proved very useful.

  • The Spread of Hindu-Arabic Numerals in the European Tradition of Practical Mathematics (13 Th -16 Th Centuries)
    Figuring Out: The Spread of Hindu-Arabic Numerals in the European Tradition of Practical Mathematics (13 th -16 th centuries) Raffaele Danna PhD Candidate Faculty of History, University of Cambridge [email protected] CWPESH no. 35 1 Abstract: The paper contributes to the literature focusing on the role of ideas, practices and human capital in pre-modern European economic development. It argues that studying the spread of Hindu- Arabic numerals among European practitioners allows to open up a perspective on a progressive transmission of useful knowledge from the commercial revolution to the early modern period. The analysis is based on an original database recording detailed information on over 1200 texts, both manuscript and printed. This database provides the most detailed reconstruction available of the European tradition of practical arithmetic from the late 13 th to the end of the 16 th century. It can be argued that this is the tradition which drove the adoption of Hindu-Arabic numerals in Europe. The dataset is analysed with statistical and spatial tools. Since the spread of these texts is grounded on inland patterns, the evidence suggests that a continuous transmission of useful knowledge may have played a role during the shift of the core of European trade from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic. 2 Introduction Given their almost universal diffusion, Hindu-Arabic numerals can easily be taken for granted. Nevertheless, for a long stretch of European history numbers have been represented using Roman numerals, as the positional numeral system reached western Europe at a relatively late stage. This paper provides new evidence to reconstruct the transition of European practitioners from Roman to Hindu-Arabic numerals.

At that time your energy becomes the Guru’s. Your lips do the same movement which Guru Nanak’s did, or Guru Ram Das’ lips did. You are exactly saying it the same way they said it. At that time you are they and they are you. There is no difference, there’s no gap.” - Siri Singh Sahib Harbhajan Singh Yogiji. 11/20/73 EK ONG KAR SAT NAM SIRI WAH GURU Guru Liv Singh, 1975 Edited in 2010 by Siri Sevak Kaur and Ravi Nam Kaur 1 FOREWORD In the beginning was the word and the word was God, and the word was with God. The Sikh Gurus spoke the Word of God, the infinite sound current. This vibration changes men’s destiny as it reaches into their hearts. This vibration, this spirit, this direct communication between man and God is our living Guru: SIRI GURU GRANTH SAHIB. Guru Angad Dev, the second Guru, created the Gurmukhi script to transmit this vibration and perpetuate it for mankind. For this reason he called it Gurmukhi, literally, “from the mouth of the Guru”. It is a bridge to reach the sound current of the Gurus. It is much simpler than the Sanskrit or the Arabic script; it is phonetic, logical and consistent.
