Supriya Sarthavaha jataka of Bhadrakalapavadana-Asiatic Society of Bangladesh
| Supriya
Sarthavaha Jataka is the 32'd chapter of the Bhadrakalpavadana, a Sanskrit
Buddhist avadana text, presumed as belonging to in-between the 3rd and 6th
cent. A.D. This volume endeavours to present in a critically edited form the text which has the essence of religion-moral teaching of Buddhism in all its significance. A close study of the text brings to light the various significant and interesting social customs and practices, religious beliefs of the people, family tradition, life style of the common people like artisans, cultivators, traders, thieves, and others; performance of rituals for appeasing evil situations, worship of gods and goddesses who came in rescue to those who seek divine help and, last but not least, the most important one, the disposal of the dead by burning. i.e. agnisamskara. |
