Tapas in the Rg Veda
TAPAS IN THE ---RG VEDA TAPAS IN THE RG VEDA By ANTHONY L. MURUOCK, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster University April 1983 MASTER OF ARTS (1983) McMaster University (Religious Studies) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Tapas in the fuL Veda AUTHOR: Anthony L. Murdock, B.A. (York University) SUPERVISORS: Professor D. Kinsley Professor P. Younger Professor P. Granoff NUMBER OF PAGES: v, 95 ii ABSTRACT It is my contention in this thesis that the term tapas means heat, and heat only, in the Bi[ Veda. Many reputable scholars have suggested that tapas refers to asceticism in several instances in the RV. I propose that these suggestions are in fact unnecessary. To determine the exact meaning of tapas in its many occurrences in the RV, I have given primary attention to those contexts (i.e. hymns) in which the meaning of tapas is absolutely unambiguous. I then proceed with this meaning in mind to more ambiguous instances. In those instances where the meaning of tapas is unambiguous it always refers to some kind of heat, and never to asceticism. Since there are unambiguous cases where ~apas means heat in the RV, and there are no unambiguous instances in the RV where tapas means asceticism, it only seems natural to assume that tapas means heat in all instances. The various occurrences of tapas as heat are organized in a new system of contextual classifications to demonstrate that tapas as heat still has a variety of functions and usages in the RV. -

A STUDY OF THE EARLY VEDIC AGE IN ANCIENT INDIA FASALE M.K.* Department of Histroy, Abasaheb Kakade Arts College, Bodhegaon, Shevgaon- 414 502, MS, India *Corresponding Author: Email- [email protected] Received: December 04, 2012; Accepted: December 20, 2012 Abstract- The Vedic period (or Vedic age) was a period in history during which the Vedas, the oldest scriptures of Hinduism, were composed. The time span of the period is uncertain. Philological and linguistic evidence indicates that the Rigveda, the oldest of the Vedas, was com- posed roughly between 1700 and 1100 BCE, also referred to as the early Vedic period. The end of the period is commonly estimated to have occurred about 500 BCE, and 150 BCE has been suggested as a terminus ante quem for all Vedic Sanskrit literature. Transmission of texts in the Vedic period was by oral tradition alone, and a literary tradition set in only in post-Vedic times. Despite the difficulties in dating the period, the Vedas can safely be assumed to be several thousands of years old. The associated culture, sometimes referred to as Vedic civilization, was probably centred early on in the northern and northwestern parts of the Indian subcontinent, but has now spread and constitutes the basis of contemporary Indian culture. After the end of the Vedic period, the Mahajanapadas period in turn gave way to the Maurya Empire (from ca. -

Bhaktapur Card Article
The Town of Bhaktapur - A Study of Structural Changes over Time - Prof. Sudarshan Raj Tiwari Department of Architecture Introduction: Why a study of Bhaktapur ? The presence of non-Sanskrit speaking and possibly non-Vedic Kirats in the Kathmandu Valley since long before its Lichchhavi takeover around the first century AD is now generally recognized. However little or no physical remains of this period have been discerned from archaeological explorations. Kirat funerary mounds are strewn all over the valley. Few of them, like the 'thudos' of Patan have been meekly recognized by some authors including Mary Slusser. Many road side stone, quite a few 'Kuldevata' stones and some 'Kumaries' on mounds near rivers or just out of towns are possibly also Kirat funerary sites1. Existence of several non-Sanskrit place names, administrative office titles, river names in Lichchhavi inscription is generally cited as proof of developed state of the valley during the Kirat rule. Particularly as some settlements continued to go by their non-Lichchhavi name even after long period of Sanskritization, it would be logical to assume that socially closely knit original settlers and their settlements continued strongly in their original sites even after the change of ruling houses. This paper looks into the structure of the town of Bhaktapur, the first capital town of the Malla with an objective to establish its link to its structure in Kirat and Lichchhavi days. Bhaktapur should provide a possibility of discerning Kirat structure of town, since Lichchhavis do not seem to have materially intervened in the general area. It is also logical to assume that since the Mallas chose to make their capital in Bhaktapur, that their social costoms were close to the original settlers and possibly Malla modifications to the structure of Bhaktapur was sympathetic to the existing structure. -
