HIGHER EDUCATION AND RESEARCH
in PRAKRITS & JAINOLOGY
in the Universities of India DR. GOKUL CHANDRA JÁIN
Introductory
Higher Studics and research in Prākrits and Jaiñology are acting scholars and students gradually. The occurrence is a natural process, and is quite consistent to the changing trends in the development of human knowledge, civilization and culture. During about last two centuries studious efforts of a band of scholars, Western and Eastern both, have brought to light the hidden treasures of Prakrits and Jainology, the cultural heritage of immense importance.
Survey reports of ancient manuscripts, epigraphic records, archaeolo. gical excavations, philological researches of old, middle and new IndoAryan langu.iges, compartive and cultural studies of religion, Philosophy and allied disciplines in humanities and social sciences, historical survey and many other esforis have brought to light abundant material, informations and plentiful literature written in various Prakrits viz Sauraseni, Māgadhi, Ardhamāgadhi, Mahārāştri, etc., and also in Sanskrit, Apabhramsa, Old Kannada, Tamil, Gujarati, Rūjasthani and so on. Pubicaltion of cpigraphical records, archacological reports, as also those on art, sculp: tures, architecture etc. have widened the scope. Scholars found a broad area of learning absolutely unexplored.
The first regular notice of Jainism to Western scholars appcars to be the one published by Lieut. Wilfred in the Asiatic Researches in 1799, and the contemporary existence of monuments, literature and adherent of Jainism was first brought to light by Col. Colin Mackenzie and Dr. Buchanan Hamilton in 1807, followed by H. T. Colcbrooke's 'Observation on the Jainas'.
A host of savants worked in the field, most notable among them are Albrecht Weber, Leumann, Rice, Fleet, Guerinot Wilson, Pischel, Jacobi,

Buhler, Hoernle, Hertel, Burgess, Jarl Charpentier, Vincent Smith, F., W. Thomas, Schubring, Zimmer etc,
When researches started in India many earnest scholars worked in different branches of Jainology, edited many ancient texts in various Prakrits, Sanskrit, Apabhramsa, Kannada, Tamil, Gujarati, Rajasthani etc.
The monumental work of Prof. Maurice Winternitz, A History of Indian Literature in two volumes, was published in the first quarter of present century. In the 2nd volume he writes, "The Jainas bave extended their activities beyond the sphere of their own religious literature to a far greater extent than the Buddhists have done, and they have memorable achievements in the secular science to their credit, in philosophy, grammar, lexicography, poetics, mathematics, astronomy and astrology and even in the science of politics. In one way or the other there is always some connection even of these 'profane' works with religion. In southern India the Jainas bave also rendered services in developing the Dravidian languages, Tamil and Telugu and specially the Kanarese literary languages. They have, besides, written a considerable amount in Gujarati, Hindi and Marwari. Thus we see that they occupy no mean position in the history of Indian literature and Indian thought." pp. 594-95).
This observation comes from one of the greatest historians of Indian literature, and has special significance.
A landmark in the History of Prakrit Grammar and study of Indian Literature as a whole 'Grammatic der Prakrit-Sprachen' by Dr. Richard Pischel appeared in 1900. Critical editions of a number of Prakrit texts. including Prakrit Grammar and other important Sanskrit and Apabhramsa works, had already been published by that time. Manuscripts became accessible to scholars.
Studies of Prakrits and Jainology in the universities of India were introduced with the establishment of Departments of Indology or the Departments of Classical languages which included the study of Sanskrit, Pāli, Prakrit and Apaohramsa. Even professors of Hindi became wellversed in these languages and introduced Apabhramša in the Department of Hindi knowing its importance for the study of modern Indo-Aryan Languages. A good deal of work in Päli, Prakrit and Apabhramsa had been done by the professors of Sanskrit. Unfortunately the spirit and

Page #7

(B)
scholarship of studying classical languages as a whole decreased, and as a result the study of Pali and Prakrit suffered a great setback.
Now when the scope of higher studies and research in many other areas of Indology has almost exhausted for free hand work, the attention of scholars and students is again diverted towards Prakrits and Jainological studies. They find a milch-cow in it. Even a little effort in any branch of these studies is found sufficient for a doctoral dissertation. A scholar working on any branch of Prakrits or Jainology earns a feather to his cap without taking much pain for intensive study.
Survey of Jainological Studies
The first survey of Jainological studies as an independent faculty appears to be the one by A. Guerinot 'Essai De Bibliography Jaina' (Paris 1906). C. L. Jain's 'Jaina Bibliography' was published in 1945 (first edition Calcutta, revised edition Delhi, 1982).
From the bibliographical point of Jainological Manuscripts Jinaratna-koś' by H. D. Velankar (Poona 1944) has proved to be of immense importance. A good number of catalogues have appeared in years following.
Information regarding published Jaina literature is not confined to the books on the History of Jaina Literature. In addition, many booklets, brochures and literary studies also provide important related materials.
With the increasing interest in the studies of Prakrits and Jainology, particularly for doctoral dissertations, the need of above bibliographies increased. Along with that a list of bibliographical informations of doctoral dissertations already approved and in progress was badly felt. My association with academicians on one side and with students on the other brought for me many such information. Finally when I found it difficult to attend to individual enquiry, I tried to make some survey for the purpose and gradually published the reports.
During last three 'Five-years Plans', I have made more than three surveys of Prakrit and Jainalogical studies, publications and some other aspects related to it. The reports have been published as per details given below,

Developments
With the incrcasing interest in higher cducation and rescarch in Prākrits and Jainology many new developments have been made during later half of the present century. Some areas of higher studies and research have been clearly located. It has been realised that Prākrits and Jainology havc vast scope for interdisciplinary studies in many branches of Humanitics and Social Sciences. As already stated above, scholars have detected materials of high importance relating to natural sciences and life-sciences 100. Works on Physics, Mathematics, Astronomy, Astrology have been done. A brief account of the development will be helpful for perspective planning, and to the rescarcher interested in this Faculty of learning.
The role of Seminars, Confernces, Summer-schools, Workshops etc in focussing the importance of Prākrits and Jainology proved to be of great signficance. Sessions of All-India Oriental Conference and introduction of an independent section of Prakrit and Jainism' in it, is of historical importance. Right down from the Kashmir valley session (1961) to the Gauhati session in Assam and the Silver Jubilee Session (1969) at Jadavpur, West Bengal, wc can see the increase in the number of participants in the Section of Prakrit and Jainism. To my pleasure, I had the opportunity to attend all these sessions. Further incrcase could be seen in the latest session at Jaipur (1982).
U. G. C. Seminars' organ:scd at the Shivaji University, Kolhapur (1968), University of Poona (1969), Magadh University, Bodhgaya, University of Udaipur (1973), Gujarat University, Ahemdabad (1973) and Sampurnanand Sanskrit Vishwavidalaya, Varanasi (1981) proved to be of greater values. Seminars at Ujjain, Mysore and Patiala also deserve mention.
Among other academic organisations the role of Jainological Research Sociсty deserves special mention. The first Summer School at Saugor (M. P.) in 1969 and the first National Conference at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi in 1973, were most significant. Sessions of Jaina Darshan Parishad and some other academic societies helped in bringing together scholars, ascetics and house-holders who could work for these studies.
The recommendations of the U. G. C. Seminars mentioned ahove drew attention of the commission, and the universities were asked if they

were interested in undertaking any of the programmes, research projects recommended by the Seminars. On the part of the universities, it was very unfortunate that very little could be achieved.
Endowment Chairs
Endowment chairs for Jainological Studies have been instituted in some of the Universities of India. The earliest chair, which I could detect, was instituted in the year 1930 at Banaras Hindu University. In the subsequent years following chairs, departments have been instituted:
1. Department of Jainology and Prakrits, Mysore University, Mysore.
2. Jaina Chair, Department of Philosophy, University of Poona.
3. Department of Jainology and Prakrits, University of Udaipur.
4.
5.
Centre of Jaina Studies,
Rajasthan University, Jaipur.
Mahavira Chair,
Punjabi University, Patiala.
6.
Department of Jainology, Karnatak University, Charnar.
Some more chairs are being instituted at Madras, Bangalore etc. University Departments
Some of the Departments of classical languages established in the Universities of India and now mostly known as the Department of Sanskrit continue to be the centres for Prakrits and Jainological Studies. Out of these special mention may be made of Delhi University, Banaras Hindu University and Allahabad University.
Some of the Departments which have been developed into two departments, also continue to enrol research scholars for Doctoral research. Nagpur and Gujarat University may be mentioned.
In Bombay, Poona and Kolhapur Prakrit studies were introduced in the first quarter of the present century. Prof. P. L. Vaidya writes-"It came

to be prominently studiсd in Indian Universitics sincc 1924-25 when Ardhamāgadhi was recognised as one of the classical languages for study, first at the University stage, and later at the matriculation stage." (Prākrit Seminar, Kolhapur, 1968). For many years Malarastra as a whole liad been a most important centre for Prākrit and Jainological studies. But now it is declining. The same is the position of Calcutta, the renowned University of West Bengal.
Sampurnanand Sanskrit Vishwavidyalaya, Varanasi stands at present at the top, as two independent Departments for Prākrit and Jainological studies have been started without the help of any endowment. The names of the Departments arc as follows,
1. Department of Prākrit and Jaināgama, and 2. Department of Jaina Darshana,
both in the Faculty of Sramaņa-vidyā.
Two indepcodent courses of studies from higher secondary to PostGraduate studies have been introduced. The University provides facilities for higher education and Doctoral & Post-Doctoral rescarch. Other courses of studies are carried in the affiliated Vidyālayas and Mahāvidyalayas for which the University takes examinations. Introduction of these studies in a university of traditional learning, has widencd the scope, and the neglected traditional Pārliaśālās and Vidyālayas, which build the back-bone of such studies, received duc recognition. Still much is to be done in the field.
Among the endowment chairs and departmens, Mysore and Udaipur are well-planned and developing speedily. Others are yet to focus their image. The oldest endowment chair at Banaras Hindu University had suffered a very unfortunate setback during the gradation of Teachers in duc course. It is now a Lecturer's post in the Faculty of Oriental Learning and Theology. A fifty-five years, old infant is being survived by spoon-feeding.
Research Institutes
Some Institutions affiliated to or recognised by the University as centre for Jainological studies, have been established during last few decades. Mention may be made to the following,

Page #12

1. Research Institute of Prākrit, Jainology and Ahimsā, (Bihar),
Vaishali, 1955. 2. P. V. Research Institute, Varanasi (U.P.). 3. L. D. Institute of Indology, Ahmedabad (Gujarat), 1957. 4. Jaipa Vishwa Bharati, Ladnun (Rajasthan). 5. Shri Devkumar Jain Oriental Research Institute, Arrab (Bihar). 6. B. L. Iostitute of Indology, Patan (Gujarat). 7. Anekānta Sodhapīțba, Bahubali (Kolbapur).
Among the institutes mentioned above the serial number itself denotes the priority.
Revival of Prākrit and Jainological studies at University level started with the establishment of the "Research Institute of Prakrit, Jainology and Abiņsā” at Vaishali, by the Goveroment of Bibar, in the year 1955. The founder Director Late Dr. Hiralal Jain laid down a solid foundation and introduced Post-Graduate studies in Prākrit and Jaipology and Doctoral and Post-Doctoral research. The scholars engaged in the organisational work of Prākrit and Jainological studies and holding high positions in Bibar, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh, belong tos bis vidyā-raisa. Almost all the Doctoral dissertations approved by the University of Bihar have been prepared under the auspices of this institute. Late Dr. Nemichandra Shastri's contribution for the extension of these siudies in Bihar is of historical importance. Almost all the Doctoral Dissertations approved by Magadh University were prepared under bis guidance and supervision. He made Arrah a centre of Prākrit and Jainological studies.
The credit of continuing the spirit of his predecessors goes to Dr. Rajaram Jain who is constantly working on the same line. At present the Jaina Siddharta Bhawana is a recognised centre for Jainological research as 'Shri Devkumar Jain Oriental Research Institute', and P. G. teaching in Prākrit have been started in H. D. Jaina College, Arrah.
Pārsvanatha Vidyāšrama, now better known as P. V. Research Institute, deserves special credit for giving impetus to Prakrit and Jainological s udies at Varanasi. The sostitute provides maximum possible facilities to research scholars, perhaps more than any University may provide. Established in :937 adjoing the campus of Banaras Hindu Univer

Page #13

( ) sity, the Institute had been trying its level best to promote Jainological studies. First Research scholar who enjoyed full facilities including sellowship at the institute was awarded Ph. D. in 1952 by Baparas Hindu University. It continued its mission even when it was not recognised by the University as a centre. Almost all the researchers who have been awarded Doctoral Degrees by B. H. U. in any subject relating to Jainology have been benefitted by P. V. R. Instituto directly or indirectly. At present, Varanasi is the most facilitating centre for Jainological research, and here too P. V. R. I. is the most. It is now recognised as a centre for Jainological research by Banaras Hindu University.
L. D. Institute of Indology, Ahmedabad is recognised by Gujarat University and has developed as an important centre for Indological research in general and Jainological research in particular in the state of Gujarat.
In Rajasthan mention of Udaipur University has been made above. Among institutes, Jaina Vishwa Bharati, Ladaun has been recognised by Rajasthan University.
Other institutions are gradually coming up. Even an independent university is proposed at Jalgaon (Maharashtra).
These institutes still need competent leadership for planning the research, a team of devoted scholars and assistants, and potential financial backup. If these institutes and the University Departments work in co-ordination, and in well-planned directions, the achievements will prove of extra-ordinary importance in the field of Advanced studies in the cultural heritage of India.
The role of some individual scholars-traditional as well as associated with the university, have been more than that of an institution. Their untiring efforts and devotion for the advancement of Jainological studies are of historical importance. Names of some European and Indian scholars have been mentioned above. In this connection contributions of late Pt. Nathuram Premi, Pt. Jugalkishore Mukhtar, Pt. Sukblal Sanghvi, Pt. Mahendra Kumar Nyāyācārya, Pt. Bechardas Doshi, Muni Puoya-Vijay, Muni Jinvijay. Dr. P. L. Vaidya and Dr. A. N. Upadhye deserve special mention.
The founders of various publication series and the traditional Pandits who brought to light many ancient texts have laid down the solid foundation of Jainological studies.

Observations
During later half of the present century manifold developments in the field of higher studies and research have taken place. Trends of Tescarch have changed. National Policy of higher cducation has been revised. New pattern of higher studies has been established. Methodology has quiic developed. The University Grants Commission publishes regularly a "Joilrnal of Higher Education. On the basis of my survey reports and close association with above devclopments, I have analysed the studies in Prakrits and Jainology and could detect some conclusions and observations. Following points may prove bcneficial for perspective planning of higher studies and research in Prākrits and Jainology. Universitywise details of doctoral desscrtations approved and in progress arc appended for ready reference.
1. During last five decades more than five hundred Doctoral Dissertations on different aspects of Jainology and Prakrits have been approved by various universitics. At present hundreds of rescarch scholars arc found registered.
2. A good number of Dissertations have been publi: hed and avai. labic for reference,
3. Close observations of the titles of Dissertations unpublished, disclosc manifold significance helping to detect some important featurcs. Individual title can be well utilised for undertaking further research work,
4. Researches in Jainology and Prakrits cover a wide range of subjects of Humanities and Social Sciences Some attempts have been made to cxplore natural and life sciences as well. These can be well classificd subjcctwise and broadly cnumcrated in the light of the recent trends and National Policy of Higher Education and rescarch referred to above.
5. Most of the rescarches have been conducted on Interdisciplinary basis, and cither comparative or descriptive is not analytical.
6. Mostly now arcas of researches have been investigated.
7. It is surprising to note that these rescarches have been undertaken and conducted successfully even when no U.G.C. Professorship of Jainology and Prakrits was provided to any university of India, Central as well as Statcs,

Page #15

H
.
8. In nonc of the universitics thc U.G.C., 1s (created a Department of Jainology and Prākrits.
9. Researches ha:c been generally conducted under var US Departs nents of the Universitics, like,
(a) Department of Classical languages, (b) Department of Ancient Indian History, Culture & Archacology, (c) Department of Philosophy, (d) Department of History of Art and Architecture, (e) Department of Hindi, and
(f) Department of Sociology. Credit of the rescarch works completed and in progress goes to individual tcachers and the Departments with which thcy arc associated.
10. Some of the universitics which do not have any teaching Department and are the asiliating bodies, have awarded morc Doctorate degrees than others.
11. Some of the universities which have been started recently have awarded the highest degree.
12. A close look in the researches so far conducted in Prākrits and Jainology give a clear idea of the arcas covered and the fields explored. In the light of the recent trends and classified research priorities prepared by U.G.C. Panels and ICSSR, thc rcscarches conducted in Prākrits and Jainology could be broadly classified as follows, 1. Language
i) Classical languages : Prākrits, Sanskrit, Apabhramsa. ii) Regional languages : Tamil, Kannaďa, Gujarāli, Rūjasthānī,
Maithili, Hindi ctc. 2. Literature
āgama and Agamic literature, Purāņas, narrative literature, Grammar, Drama, and Dramaturgy, poctics and literary criticism,
cvolution of literature, critical editing of ancient classical texts. 3. Lnguistics. 4. Philosophy and Religious Studies. 5. Inscriptions, Epigraphy. 6. History, Art and Culture.

Page #16

7. Sociology, Schools and Sects. 8 Political Science. 9. Education. 10. Economics and Commerce. 11. Psychology. 12. Geographi'. 13. Mathematics, 14. Astronomy, Astrology.
13. If one goes through the bibliographical details further closely, and one who has already seen ihe published dissertations, he can asses the intensity of carlier and later dissertations. It can obviously bc concluded that carlier rescarches were comparative, intensive and of high standard. But there is a gradual fall in quality with the increasing quantity. Though this gradual fall of standard could be seen in almost all the subjects of Humanities and Social Scieoces due to rush and hurry for degree, yet some other reasons should not be ignored.
14. There is no co-ordination in the research-work conducted or being carried out at presint. Simutaneously the research work is being done on the same subject, same theme and on same lines. It clearly indicates that the researcher, the cuservisor and the members of the Research committes arc riot avare of the works already done and being carried out. Even in many cases the works published are not noticed before registration. The bibl ographics and Journals which must be seen before undertaking the research work, are not consulted.
15. Lack of proper facilities on the part of the university and lack of traditional back-ground, hurry for the Doctorato Degree and negligence of the responsibility undertaken on the part of researchers and sometimes of supervisors too are some of the important factors for the decline of the standard.
Role of University Grants Commission
1. It is css the part of the University Grants Commission to provide guidelines for Perspective Planning of Higher Education and Research in Jainolozy and Prakrits. more important it is, because Higher Education and Research in Juinology and Prakriis are yet to be properly introdued and organised in the universities.

Page #17

2. As Jaipology and Prakrits have most unexplored and wide scope, and fertility of the new areas for Interdisciplinary studies and research, it deserves special attention and incentive on the part of the University Grapto Commission as well as the universites.
3. It is surprising, rather unfortunate that no full-fledged Department with adequate staff and proper facilities, has yet been created by the Commission for the study of Prākrits and Jainology in any University of India.
4. The unfortunate incidents of converting the junior teaching posts of Prākrit into other discipline, have been noticed since Fourth Five Years Plan and need not to be mentioned here. But it is the duty of the University concerned to avoid such malpractice. The commission also needs to see into the matter.
Recommendations
The discussions and deliberations of the seminars and conferences held during last three decades brought out with great clarity the main objectives of Higher Education and Rescarch in Präkrits and Jainology. The ways, along which these studies ought to develop in our academic institutions, have been suggested. The importance and cultural value of the studies in their varied aspects have been clearly magnified. On the basis of the sccommendations of the seminars some aspects of Perspective Planning could be suggested.
The Prākrit Languages form an essential link between the old IndoAryan and the ancient civilisation embodied in it and the New Indo. Aryan and the modern culture of the country. They form the very backbone of linguistic studies in our country, and contribute equally to the better understanding of both Sanskrit on the one side and Modern Aryan and Dravidian languages on the other. The necessity of cultivating more intensely the study of Apabhramsa for a praper historical appreciation of Modern Indian languages, and to grasp their essential unity, is beyond dispute.
Prākrits have also played their part in linking India with its ncighbouring countries in its cultural expansion, and their studies are expected to renew these ties with the nations of South-East Asia and strengthen them,

Page #18

Prakrit literature, uoparalled in iis vast extent and astonishingly of varied interest, forms ac integral part of it. Accient and the Medieval heritage of the coustry and stands on czual sog.isg with Sanskrii and Pali studies, Prakrit studies should b: takea to include all the Middle Indo-Aryan Languages iccluding Niya and ihe :o called Gzedbāri Prakrits to give them a broader 2nd deeper perspective.
It has been clearly located and icerified by a band of scholars that the origins and growth of almost all the modern Indian languages are intimately connected with the Piakrits, and thai the knowledge of Prakrits is quite essential for the proper understanding and efficient development of the differeni regional languages of both ine indo-Aryan and the Dravidian families, wbich are bound to play a far more central role in the academic life of the coudiry in the cars to come. Jo this connectioz scholars have pointedly drawn the attentio) to the importanz and value of the Apahians? 121guages and literature which coss.itate their immediate precursors. Along wită the oina: Fell-kno7n aspects of tie Prakrit 1202u2gcs as a whole, ihe Apabhrams2 stands in urgent need of an intensive and careful study.

Art, Sociology, Political Science, Education, Economics, Psychology and
others.
1. Post-Graduate Studies
In view of the above disciplines the course of studies at Post-Graduate level should be planned very carefully to suit the subjects. Thus the course of studies should be of two types. To specify,
(a) A full course to cover all the semesters or Previous and Final Examinations, whatsoever may be. This course of studies should be of specialised nature leading to research in the field. Without such specialised study, the culturally useful aspects of the subject cannot be brought out. To bring in the uniformity the existing courses of Ardhamagadhi, Prakrit and Jainology, as they are put in different universities like Bombay, Bihar, Magadh, Udaipur, Mysore, Karnataka, Varanasi etc. descarve to be throughly revised.
(b) Another course of studies should be a bit of general nature, and of Two and Four papers to be offered in final Examination. Two papers course should be introduced in the subjects where provision for writing a dissertation in lieu of papers exists. Four papers course may be introduced in the Departments of Classical languages, Modern Indian languages, Department of Linguistics and in the Department of Philosophy, Religious Studies, Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology. Such course of studies should be introduced with the object to promote Inter-disciplinary studies which would remove barriers between Departments, and promote greater academic co-operation between them. These courses should essentially be conducted under the supervision and guidence of the Department of Prakrits and Jainology so as to achieve the desired results.
2. Under-Graduate Studies
The course of studies at Under-Graduate level needs to be introduced with a view to provide potential background for higher studies in the discipline. As such 'Prakrit and Jainology' should be introduced as an independent optional subject at Uuder-Graduate level, and the course of studies should be drawn accordingly. Keeping the importance of the subject, it should not be mixed up with any other subject of study, but at

Page #20

( १६ )
the same time the course contents should be enriched, and should not be confined to a very limited scope,
Research and Research Projects
1. It is necessary that preference is given to new subjects for Doctoral dissertation and research programmes rather than repeating out. Such an researches on topics which have been already worked approach alone will contribute to an all round enrichment and step up the progress of Indian studies.
2. To prepare critical editions of ancient texts should be given top priorities for the above mentioned research works. In this connection it should be borne in mind that editing some works can be undertaken on individual initiative but some of the works can be undertaken by a team of earnest scholars and experts of the subjects, critical edition needs to be critical in real sense evaluating entire value of the text, and not merely a reproduction of manuscript.
3. The topics for Doctoral and Post-Doctoral dissertation should be specific and well-defined. The discipline and the area of the topic should be decided at its initial stage. An illustrative list of research priorities bas been published by University Grants Commission and Indian Council of Social Science Research and other Councils.
4. As studies and researches in Prakrits and Jainology are at the stage of reorganisation, more specific and detailed illustrative list is an immediate need which can be met out only after a series of workshops for reorientation and perspective planning of Higher Education and Research in Prakrits and Jainology.
5. To prepare source material from ancient texts for Inter-disciplinary research is an urgent requirement essentially in the fitness of the recent trends in research in Humanities and Social Sciences as well as National Policy. For such a work of crucial importance for evaluating the real value and significant features of the cultural Heritage of India, an exhaustive list of topics has to be prepared. Then the works can be undertaken by an individual for Doctoral dissertation and by a team of research experts for research programme.
6. Topics for Doctoral dissertation in Jainology should be selected from the concepts, theories and ideals formulated by the great Prophats

and Acaryas of Jaina Śramana Tradition for human welfare and total development of personality, after constant experiments during last three thousand years or even more on life and matter in Socio-Cultural develop. ment. There is plentiful such material which is the heart of Jainology. Merely narrating the tales and putting the things from one vessel to another should be discouraged. Such research works merely lower the value and importance of Jainological researches.
Major Research Projects
Basides the research projects mentioned above some major research projects have been suggested in the Seminars as 'essential research projects', They can be enumerated as follows,
1. An intersive survey of Prakrit, Sanskrit and Apabhramsa manuscripts pertaining to the studies of Prakrits and Jainology, and their scientific cataloguing.
2. Historical and descriptive grammars of the different Prakrit dialects including the inscriptional Prakrits on an uniform plan. 3. A comprehensive History of Prakrit and Jainological literature. 4. A Middle Indo-Aryan Dictionary on historical principles based on all the available Prakrit and Apabhramsa works.
5. An authoritative Encyclopaedia of Prakrits and Jainology.
6. A comprehensive Bibliography of Prakrits and Jainological studies.
7. Monographs on important cultural aspects prominently represented in Prakrit and Jainological Literature, and can be potentially helpful for Inter-disciplinary studies.
Promotion of Prakrit and Jainological Studies
To achieve the above-mentioned aims and to promote the Higher Education and Research in Prakrits and Jainology at the university stage, the Seminars have made some suggestions and indicated the procedure which the universities and the University Grants Commission should adopt as the practical steps.
1. It is important to set up full-fledged Departments of Prakrits and Jainology in a couple of universities which may be found
2

Page #22

cuitable for the purpose, and setting up of at least an Iostitute or Centre of Advanced studies ia Prakrits and Jajaology to
undertake and co-ordinate research work in the field, 2. Existing Departments of Jaipology od Prakrits may be streng.
thened and equipped with suficient stafi ard oiber facilit es required to fulfil the desired Inter-disciplinary teaching and research.
3. In view of tte importance of the subject, and its initial stage,
adequate specific Scholarships 2t Post-Graduate level and Fellowships for M. Phil and Doctoral research, and research Grants for minor and major research projects should be provided.
4. Seminars, symposia, workshops, summer schools, short term
Institutes, Conferences should be regularly organised at regional and all India level at suitable universities.
Undesirable developments to be restricted
The seminars have painfully recorded some undesirable developmeats shich would ultimally result in National loss of Cultural Haritage, and iherefore, desi to be stopped at this very stage. It is well-known and as undisputable fact that classical lansuages of Iodia have close tie and require to be studied in relation to each other. It is why earlier Professors of Sanskrit could contribute to a great extent to any classical language Sanskrit, Paii, Prakrits or Apabhrams.
It is a calculated fact that half, and sometimes more than half of a classical Drama cow popalaris tgown as Sapskrit Drama, is written in Prakrits. Druma like Wrochakarikam is written mostly in Prakrits.
All the works of Sanskrit Poetics have quoted a good deal of Prakrit 2nd Apabranša verses.
It should be asserted that these works, whicrearer prescribed as text books, are taughi in original.
The practice of teaching Prakrit portio35 got in original but through Sanskrit Cha;a has developed to such an extent that gradually the Prakrit portioas of the dramas and works on poetics have become comupi.

Page #23

i! The Sattakas, which are written hundred per cent in Prakrit, are being taught through Chaya. Editions of Sattaka like Kappüraman jari are appearing with Chāyā, aod the Sanskrit exposition and Hindi translation adopt the Chāyā only.
Even the Pāli and Prākrit inscriptions and Apabhramsa portions in the selections are presented with Chāyā.
These books are taught in the universities as text books at PostGraduate level. As a result in the new generation the young scholar of Sanskrit is kept deprived of the rich cultural heritage of the classical languages. Their knowledge becomes very limited in a closed compartment. Ultimately a great deal of hatred to sister classical languages is generating. An earnest student, not even a scholar, can think why the great poet like Bhāsa, Kālidāsa, Sriharşa, Bhavabūti, Rājasekhara and others did not compose their dramas entirely in Sanskrit ? Why they composed so much portions in Prākrit ? What for the great Ācārya Bharata Muni prescribes different Deśabhāsās or Prakrits to be used in dramas ? Why all the great writers of Poetics like Mammața, Ānandavardhana, Dandi, Kuntaka, Jagannātha, Vishvanātha and others have quoted so many Prākrit verses in their works ? Could they not find apropriate examples in Sanskrit literature ? And they may find a reply to themselves that none of the great writers was lacking in any classical language. They wanted to depict composite culture of our country, otherwise how the proverb could come out •Literature is the mirror of the Society'. It is lack of the knowledge on the part of the teacher that he deprives his students from a good deal of knowledge of our cultural heritage. The student may specialise in any branch of classical languages, but if they are put in a watertight compartment from very beginning, they can never be in a position to understand the literary, linguistic and cultural value of the classical languages and the close tie wbich they have to one another.
Attention of every earnest scholar working in the field of any branch of classical languages should the drawn to this matter of great concern. In Ănandasundri Sațțaka the poet says,
पाखंडो ण महं तिदिक्खइ विडो सीलाइ विज्ज जडो । जं जं जस्स सुदुल्लहं खिदिसु सो तं तं मुहा दिई ।

I po ) A heretic hates pūja, a libertine bates character, and a fool hates knowledge. Man vainly goes on condemniog things that are beyond him. Conclusion
In the light of the above details, we may conclude that Higher Education and Research in Prakrits and Jainology should be plained with a secular outlook, and within the frame of National Policy of Higher Education and Research. The objectives should be well-defined, and should be cons'stant to the functions enumerated in the Policy Frame as follows,
-inculculate and promote basic human values and the capacity
to choose between atterpate value systems; -preserve and foster our great cultural traditions and blend them
with essential elements from other cultures and peoples; -promote a rational outlook and scientific temper; -enrich the lodian languages and promote their use as important
means of communication, national development and unity; - promote the development of the total personality of the students
and inculcate ip them a commitment to society; -act as an objective critic of society and assist in the formulation of
national objectives to the pursuit of excellence; -promote commitment to the pursuit of excellence; - contribute to the improvement of the entire educational system
so as to subserve the community.
