A Buddhist Ritual Manual on Agriculture
Author: Gergely Hidas
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110620499
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
This volume is the first in-depth study of a recently discovered Sanskrit dharani spell text from around the 5th century CE surviving in two palm-leaf and three paper manuscript compendia from Nepal. This rare Buddhist scripture focuses on the ritual practice of thaumaturgic weather control for successful agriculture through overpowering mythical Nagas. Traditionally, these serpentine beings are held responsible for the amount of rainfall. The six chapters of the Vajratundasamayakalparaja present the vidyadhara spell-master as a ritualist who uses mandalas, mudras and other techniques to gain mastery over the Nagas and thus control the rains. By subjugating the Nagas, favourable weather and good crops are guaranteed. This links this incantation tradition to economic power and the securing of worldly support for the Buddhist community.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Culture of Farm Crops: A Manual of the Science of Agriculture, and a Hand-Book of Practice for American Farmers No farmer can be successful in the pursuit of his industry without a knowledge of the principles upon which the practice of it is founded. Every work of the farm has more or less of mystery attached to it. No other art, among all the industries of the human race is so intricate or has so many varying conditions and circumstances environing and affecting it. The soil, the season, the character of the plants grown, the time and manner of their cultivation; the air, water and mineral matters which furnish them with food; and many other things related to these; are all involved in an inextricable maze and mystery to the farmer who knows nothing of them or their relations to and reactions upon each other. But these mysteries are unfolded in the most beautiful and interesting manner, and the laws which relate to the growth of plants are seen to form a system which gradually developes - as the farmer progresses in this study - into form and method from which rules may be laid down for his guidance; or from which he may form his own rules and practice as any emergency may arise. When principles are known and understood, one may form his own practice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
