Indian Culture (Journal of the Indian Research Institute) January 1939

1939

The excellent character of this new Journal and the high standard of articles published in it and the enterprise and devotion of the group of the Bengali scholars seem to make Indian Culture rightly and completely fill the great void created by the unfortunate discontinuance of the great epoch making journal the Indian Antiquary. [...] And just as the Sainkhya view of the self (and the world) is condemned as eternalism ' (sassata-viida) in the Brahmajfila-Sutta (see above) so we may equally refer to the Sitnkhya (and the Vedanta) the strong condemnation in the 38th Sutta of the Majjhima-Nikiya and elsewhere of the view of an immutable persistent We may then take it I believe that the Absolute as thought of (rather than [...] For instance the Prithivi-sfikta of the Atharva-Veda contains the Hindu's earliest hymns to the mother-land each of whose features receives its due share of recognition for its contribution in the making of the country : ' The seas protecting the land ; the fertilizing rivers hills and snows forests and herbs ; its agriculture flora and fauna ; and lastly its peoples " of different speech [...] Thus very soon the home of the Hindus evolves into a larger aggregate known as (3) Madhyade$a of which the limits are defined to be the Himalayas in the north the Vindhyas in the south Prayaga in the east and Vinagana in the west [` the region where the Sarasvati disappears in the sands ']. [...] When the thera had put the vessel with the relics on the Cetiymountain he took the collar-bone relic and went with his company of disciples to the appointed place.' It is plain enough that this account did not mean primitively to convey the thought of three relics : the collar-bone the (unspecified) catitu's and the patta but of two only : the collar-bone and the bowlful of dhitu's.
