Seth from T7 T garia an authentic publication of Jain Vishva Bharati, Ladnun. Page #92 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ EVEN IMPOSSIBLE CAN TAKE SHAPE THROUGH NON-VIOLENCE It is an incident from Mahabharat. Draupadi's five sons were murdered. Overwhelmed with grief she in a fit of emotion resolved that she will tie her hair only after colouring them with the blood of the enemy. The killer Ashvatthama was caught and brought before Draupadi. The killer of your sons is here at your feet. What punishment would you like to give to give him ?' Twinkling her eyes Draupadi saw Ashvatthama. She had a vivid glimpse in her eyes of the heart-pangs of Ashwatthama's mother, the wife of Guru Dronacharya. She was a mother herself and understood what maternal love meant. She said, Forgive Ashvatthama.' Those who had subdued and brought him were bewildered. They looked Draupadi with utter disbelief. Draupadi said, 'I can understand the suffering of his old mother. I do not want to make her unhappy.' Ashvatthama and all those standing by his side learnt a convincing lesson in Non-violence. When dacoits became brothers Mahabharat is dated in ancient history, but something happened about a hundred years ago. Information was received in Gogunda (Mew d) about the impending dacoity. Men became nervous en hearing the news. They conferred and fled from the village, but a devout lady Chandubai thought of a way out. She assembled the leading women of the village and revealed her plan. Women were impressed by her imagination and courage. They agreed to her proposal and waited for the dacoits. The dacoits arrived on the set date. Near the entrance gate of the village the women were singing songs of felicitation wearing colourful auspicious clothes and ornaments. From a distance the dacoits saw them. They were happy to see the glittering ornaments. What they were wanting to get at the point of the gun were before them. The dacoits came a little closer. Their leader was in the front. He entered the village with his colleagues. From the other side Chandubai moved forward with the Reception tray (Aarti thal) to welcome them. In a welcoming mood she said, 'Brothers, you are warmly welcome. We have been waiting for you for long.' Page #93 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. No, XVIII, No. 1 The leader of the dacoits heard being addressed as "brothers". In his heart the dormant brotherly feeling woke up. A thought arose in his mind, "Can any brothers loot their own sisters ?' With this thought he decided to turn back. Secing that the dacoit leader was on the point of turning back, Chandubai said with affection. 'Dear brothers, you have come to your sisters' home. How can you return without taking food ? All of you have to come home and partake in the meal prepared by your sisters.' The dacoits could not return. They come into the village with ladies. Chandubai had already made all the arrangements for food. Assisted by the other women of the village, she extended full hospitality to the dacoits. After the meals she took them for paying respects to the fourth Acharya of the Terapanth Shrimajjayacharya who was then residing in the village. The dacoits were very happy. Before leaving the village, the leader of the dacoits, gave to each woman Rupees twenty-one as a brotherly gift. The event sounds incredible, but those who are familiar with the power of non-violence as well as the results of the experiments of nonviolence, can know that through non-violence the impossible can take a concrete shape and become possible. Road to Succees The development of material power will never be irksome if it is accompanied by the development of the power of self-control. Any civilization which is externally rich but internally hollow is bound to go utterly bankrupt one day. I believe that right philosophy, right determination, right conduct, efforts towards casting man in a new mould and scientific investigation of spirituality is the road to success, for it will fill the above internal hollowness. -Acharya Tulsi Page #94 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Svetamber Terapanthi Jains : THE HOLY ACHARYAS The founder of the Terapanthi sect of the Sveta mber Jains was Swami Bhikhanji. He was born in village Kantaliya on Ashad Sudi 13, V.S. 1783. His father was Balluji Saklecha and mother was Dipabai. Swami Bhikhanji possessed, since early boyhood, a religious temperament. He used to visit Sadhus belonging to Gachhavasi Sampradaya who were adored by his family. While in close association with those Sadhus, it gradually dawned upon him that in them there was more of outward show than of real religious ardour. So he left them and began to pay respects to Raghunathji, another Acharya of one of the branches of the Baistola (Sthanakvasi sect) of the Svetamber Jains. After some time Bhik hanji resolved to give up all worldly connections and take to the Holy Order of Sadhus. As a preliminary to his determination, he took a vow of total abstention from sexual pleasures and began to fast every alternate day. As fate would have it, he lost his wife soon after and although in the prime of his youth and although earnestly pressed by his relatives to marry again, he would not do so as he had made up his mind to renounce the world. Thereafter the permission of his mother was obtained, his father having died already, and he was initiated by Acharya Shri Raghunathji in V.S. 1808. Swami Bhikhanji remained with Raghunathji for about 8 years and during that period he applied himself to the critical study of Jain Sutras with untiring zeal and unique perseverance. From such study it became clear to him that the Sadhus of that time were not leading their lives according to cononical injunctions and were not correctly preaching the principles of Jainism, He, therefore, seriously discussed the matter with his Guru Raghunathji and humbly implored him to follow the true path. Guru Raghunathji without paying proper attention and consideration to the just request only put forward the excuse that as these were bad timas ( ) and fifth descending cycle of Eras (CTA TTT), the effect of the time made it impossible to lead the life of a true Sadhu. Bhikhanji was not satisfied with this answer. Having failed in his attempts to induce his Guru to follow the true path, Swamiji resolved himself to lead a true ascetic's life and to put forward the right interpretation of Jain Sutras. He, therefore, left his Guru Raghunathji in the town Bagadi and was accompanied by such of Sadhus as wanted to follow his lead. Page #95 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 At that time all the sthAnakavAsI sAdhu used to stay in sthAnaka or places specially set apart for Sadhus to live in. But Swami Bhikhaoji could not use or occupy a place meant or built for Sadhus, as that was against the rules laid down in Jain Sastras. So, he began to stay in such places of laymen as were for their own use and freely offered to him for his stay, as this was in conformity with the rules. 9 It is said that one day Dewan Fatehchandji Singhi of Jodhpur while passing through the bazar saw in a vacant shop thirteen people performing their religious worship and he enquired of them the reason of their not resorting to the Sthanak for such religious practices. They then related to him the whole history of how and why Swami Bhikhanji separated from Acharya Raghunathji and also explained the principles as enunciated by him. They also informed him that there were only 13 Sadhus following his lead upto that time. The strange coincidence and the number of Sadhus and the history of the separation led one of the poets standing by at that time, to compose a couplet nicknaming the sect as Terapanthi. Swami Bhikhanji gave a very appropriate interpretation to it and said that only one who followed the five great vows (a), five rules of conduct (affa), and control of body, mind and speech ( fca) or in all thirteen rules was a Terapanthi or follower of thine, the Lord's path. Swami Bhikhanji passed away from this world on Bhadrapad Sudi 13, V.S. 1860. He initiated 49 Sadhus and 56 Sadhvis during his life time. The second Acharya was Swami Bharimalji, who was installed as the Acharya and successor to Swami Bhikhanji at Siriyari in Marwar. He was the son of Krishnaji Lodha. His mother's name was Dharini. During his pontificate 38 Sadhus and 44 Sadhvis were initiated. He breathed his last in Rajnagar (Mewar) at the age of about 75 on Magh Badi 8, V.S. 1878. The third Acharya Swami Raichandji was installed as Acharya in Rajnagar. His father was Chaturji Bomb, an Oswal by caste. He initiated 77 Sadhus and 168 Sadhvis and passed away in Rawaliyan at the age of 62. The fourth Acharya Swami Jitmalji was born in village Rohit (Marwar) on Aswin Sudi 14, V.S. 1860. He was initiated in Jaipur. He was a profound scholar and a great poet. With him composing poetry was a natural instinct as it were. He composed saMtaguNamAlA while he was a child of eleven and translated qarger in Rajasthni poetry in the eighteenth year of his age. Page #96 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 10 TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 . He composed three and half lacs ctqs and was the first to render canonical text& in lyrical form. His work want tots is a unique Jain encyclopaedic scripture containing 60906 interpretative verses, composed in Rajasthani pociry, representing 329 TTT and Tiffruft of Indian classical music. He also translated the 2171TIT ET and wrote a commentary on it. He rendered into verse the fantry, 28 chapters of the BETTET47 97 and 10 chapters of the qw0 7. Besides these, hc wrote a number of books- ak-f99-3779fat, $fa fatet, fora mukhamaNDana, bhramavidhvaMsana, praznottara tattvabodha, praznottara sArdhazataka, bhikSu jasa THAT, Aferafta and 974 79T TO TARF etc. He initiated 105 Sadhus and 224 Sadhvis and expired at the age of 78 on Bhadrapada Badi 12, V.S. 1938 in Jaipur. The fifth Acharya Swami Maghraj ji was born at Bidasar on Chalt Sudi 11, V.S. 1897 and was initiated at Ladnun. He was installed as an Acharya at Jaipur. He initiated 36 Sadhus and 83 Sadhvis and breathed his last on Chalt Badt 5, V.S. 1949. The sixth Acharya was Swami Maniklalji, who was born in Jaipur. His father's name was Hukumchandji Thard Srimal and his mother was Chhotaji. He was initiated at Ladnun and was installed as an Acharya at Sardarshahar. He initiated 16 Sadhus and 24 Sadhvis and passed away at an early age of 42. The seventh Acharya Swami Dalchandji was born in Ujjain and was initiated at Indore and became Acharya at Ladnun. His father was Kaniramji Pipara and his mother was Jadavaji. He left this world at the age of 57 and initiated 36 Sadhus and 125 Sadhvis. The eighth Acharya was Swami Kaluramji, He was born on Falgun Sudi 2, V.S. 1933. His father's name was Mulchandji Kothari and his mother was Sati Chhogaji. The mother and son were both initiated at Bidasar on Aswin Sudi 3, V.S. 1944. He succeeded Swami Dalchandji as an Acharya on Bhadrapada Sudi 15, V.S. 1966 and initiated 155 Sadhus and 225 Sadhvis. He was a profound Sanskrit scholar, and was vastly learned in Jain Sastras. For his sound and correct interpretations of Jain Sastras he had won the unstained admiration of many pbilosphers and learned men of this country as well as of other foreign countries. He passed away on first Bhadrapada Sudi 6, V.S. 1993 at Gangapur. He had a septic ulcer in his finger which was operated by an ordinary pen-knife by one of his Sadhus, as Jain Sadhus could not take the help of a layman for any operation in those days, V " Page #97 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 the time of his passing away he was fully conscious and fully realising that his life was gradually exhausting. Just three days prior to his passing away he nominated as his successor, the present Acharya Shri Tulsi. Among the notable personalities who paid visit to Acharya Shri Kalura mji Swami may be mentioned the names of Dr. Hermann Jacobi of Bonn (Germany), the celebrated Jain scholar who visited him in 1914 A.D.; Dr. Charles W. Gilkey of Chicago who visited him in 1925 A.D.; the Hon'ble Agent 10 the Governor-General, Rajputana States and Maharana Sir Bhopal Singhji of Udaipur and each of them spoke highly about his saintly character and high erudition. The ninth and present Acharya Shri Tulsi was born at Ladnun on Kartik Sudi, V.S. 2, 1971. His father was Jhumarmalji Khater. His initiation took place on Pous Badi 5, V.S. 1911 along with his sister Ladaji at Ladnun and he was installed as ninth Acharya on first Bhadrapada Sudi 9, V.S. 1993 corresponding to 26.8.1936 A.D. Acharya Shri Tulsi has brought about a revolution in the order. It is a rare instance in history when a young man of 22 assumed the responsibility of guiding 500 monks and nuns and lacs of lay-followers. But he reorganised the order and inspired the monks to acquire modern knowledge and the nuns to learn Sanskrit and Prakrit. He directed his attention towards social reforms and started the Anuyrat movement with a twofold object. One was to utilise an organised body of monks and nuns for the benefit of mankind and the other was to raise the morality of society which was fast degrading after the attainment of independence by India. He is all in all a worthy successor of a worthy Acharya. He received Miss Meliscent Shepherd, who was then chief Organiser of the Association for Moral and Social Hygiene in India, on 4th February, 1946 i.e. ten years after his installation, along with the lady H. Mary Spens, wife of Hon'ble Sir Patric Spens, C.B.E., Chief Justice of India and she spoke very high of the Acharya Shri and remarked that from the glowing lamp of his teaching and example many holy lives are lit. Following is the text of her speech delivered at Sardarshahr on 4th February, 1946.-- "Gentlemen, On behalf of Lady Spens, Mr. & Mrs Gupta and myself, I have been allowed by His Holiness, a few minutes in which to try to express our heartfelt gratitude for the most generous hospitality we have enjoyed here at Sardarshahr at the kind invitation of the Jain Svetamber Terapanthi Sabha: To His Holiness the Acharya Maharaj, we are indeed indebted. Page #98 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 12 TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 He has not only permitted us all to attend these great gatherings, but has also granted us some of his valuable time in private audience, when he answered our enquiries. We have been greatly interested in the principles of the devoted Sadhus and Sadhvis, who keep a mental enclosure away from the affairs of the material world, in order to attain spiritual advancement of the soul. We have observed the daily routine, the method of making their own utensils (most beautifully decorated), of writing their own sacred scriptures, of sewing, of making brushes all from We materials given by the people to whom they give their messages. We have seen have been present when these Sadhvis begged food. that they are welcomed to the kitchens by the ladies of the houses and that the nuns reject a large amount of the food freely offered, but the monks and nuns only take sufficient for their individual needs for one day only. They are therefore not in the least like ordinary beggars. In fact at one gathering of above ten thousand laymen and women, several laymen chanted a song of invitation begging His Holiness to decide to return to Sardarshahr another year. We have also seen those who want to be initiated after long testing, praying to be allowed to join the Sadhus and Sadhvis in full sight of all their neighbours and with the written permission from their relatives. The shining eyes of monks and nuns and their replies show how happy they are. We have been privileged to be accepted almost as member of this most brotherly and sisterly family. We do thank the President of the Sabha Seth Chhogmal Chopra and Seth Nemchand Pincha, M.L.A., Bikaner and many other members of the Executive Committee of the Sabha for their very courteous invitation to attend these memorable functions. Neither Lady Spens, Mr. and Mrs Gupta and their children, nor I will ever forget these happy days. Seth Budhmal Dugar and his family have very kindly given us the hospitality of his guest house and we have also much enjoyed visiting the ladies in many other houses, where we felt that we have been welcomed into friendship. There is a Punjabi Proverb 'From one lamp a thousand can be lit'. From the glowing lamp of your Acharya's teaching and example many holy lives are lit. May your spirit of peace and followship spread throughout India." -And the endless journey is going on with full swim and enthusiasm, taking likeminded people and torch bearers together or walking alone, under the able leadership of Anuvrat Anushasta, Yuga Pradhan Acharya Shri Tulsi. -PARMESHWAR SOLANKI Page #99 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ XANDRAMES AND SANDRACOTTUS' (Classical Accounts Re-examined) Upendranath Roy (Irony of fate and the British rule in Irdia turned into the sheetanchor of Indian history what was insignificant and unworthy of even passing reference to ancient authors of India. The Cambridge History of India (Vol. I) devotes one-seventh of its space to the description of Alexander's invasion and the chronology of the textbooks used in our schools and colleges are solely based on the identification of certain names of individuals and places that occur in the classical accounts. Gangaridae and Prasioi are supposed to be parts of Bengal, Palibothra is equated with Pafaliputra, Xandrames, Andrames or Aggrames is identified with some ruler of the Nanda dynasty while Sandracottus, Andracottus or Sandrocyptus is believed to be no other than Chandragupta Maurya. So the synchronization of Alexander and Seleucus with the Nanda and Maurya rulers and the chronology resulting from it have become almost articles of faith with our intellectuals. Few care to examine the facts. Current views are accepted widely not out of conviction but generally out of laziness (there is little time to spare for study and research) or fear (the conclusions drawn by the well-known scholars can be challenged on pain of being branded "fundamentalist" or "reactionary". The few who are alert and courageous are disabled and suppressed by lack of resources. That makes it even more necessary to re-examine the relevant data add restore the truth now. --Editor) Origin of the Dogma For a long time, Christianity believed that the universe was ereated not more than 4004 years before Christ. It was heretical to the Jewish and Christian Scholars, therefore, to date anything earlier than that. They believed that the world owed all its wisdom and culture to Greece and Rome and the British and the French wero the successors and continuators of that tradition and had a mission of civilising. So they attempted to bring all that was glorious in India nearer in time to the Greek and Roman civilisations, if not posterior to it. This line of thinking left its impression upon even Page #100 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 14 TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 the best and the most nationalistic among Indians who had received western education. They could not help interpreting In lian texts to the taste of the Christian rulers. The suggestion that Sandracottus can be identified with Chandragupta Maurya came first from a South Indian Scholar, Haridas Pillai. His suggestion was accepted and announced by a French Academy in 1772 as a remarkable discovery. The view, however, gained currency when Sir William Jones promoted it in 1795 A.C. and the credit for the "discovery" was given to him. What is forgotten or overlooked in this respect is the role of the Bengali intellectuals in propagating the theme and the psychology behind the same. It demands and deserves clarification. With a few receptions like Dr. Jadu Nath Sarkar, the Bengali historians have taken history simply as a means of glorifying Bengal and Bengalis rather than revealing the truth. According to logic characteristic to them, there was no war of independence in India in 1857 as Bengal played no role in it; the Imperial Guptas must have originated in Bengal as their reign is called the "golden age',; Kalidasa must be a Bengali as Kali is thc main deity in Bengal. Bankim Chandra Chatterjee is the precursor of such logic and historiography. He was disturbed to notice that the Bengalis were deemed to be weak. So he proceeded to prove that the Bengalis were strong and sturdy in the past and invited others to join him. He began rewriting the history with the announcement that it was the fear of none but the Bengalis that compelled the forces of Alexander to retreat. One of such articles by him appeared more than a century ago in the Sravana number of the 'Prachar' in the Bengali era 1291 (corresponding to August-September, 1883 A.C.). That article, 'Disgrace of Bengal', remains uptransiated into English to date which necessitates quoting at length from it. This is what Mr. Chatterjee wrote: "The well-known Greek historian (Sic !) Megasthenes attended the court of Chandragupta, the king of Magadha. He has left a description of the country of the Gangaridae. He has specified the location of that country with the assertion that the river Ganges flowing from north to south marks the eastern boundary of the country. Evidently, he refers to that very part of Bengal which is called Radha (ra)now. Viewed correctly, Gangaridae of Megasthenes is but the corruption for GANGARADHI. It is quite possible for people to name the country on the bank of the river Ganga, "Gangarastra'. It looks similar to the names Page #101 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVII, No. 1 'SURASTRA' (Surat), MADHYARASTRA (Mewar), GURJARASTRA etc. formed by adding the word 'RASTRA'. 'GANGARASTRA' would corrupt into GANGARATA and GANGARARHA gradually. Then the word 'Ganga' would be dropped for the sake of brevity. For example, people use the word 'TEERASTHA' for 'GANGA TEERASTHA'. The old Sanskrit name for TIRHUT is "TIRABHUKTI". Here too, the word 'Ganga' is gone and "TIRA"alone is retained. GANGARARHA too has become "RARHA" for the same reason. We can infer from the statement of Megasthenes that 'RARHA' was a separate kingdom at that time. Megasthenes says this kingdom was so powerful that it was never defeated by any enemy and other kings dared not attack it for fear of the elephant troops of the Gangaridae. He has also mentioned that when Alexander reached the bank of the Ganga and heard about the might of the Gangaridae, he retreated from that very place. That Alexander desisted from war for fear of the prowess of the Bengalis, may or may not be acceptable to a person, but it is testified by Megasthenes himself. We are not introducing a new, tutored witness. "'1 If the name Gangaradhi (et) is challanged as fictitious, that too is answered by Chatterjee: "When we find that people of the region which was called Gangari dae by Megasthenes are known as the Radhis (ra) now, we deem it alone sufficient to establish the historicity of the GANGARADHI. But we are not relying upon this proof alone in using the term GANGARADHI (t), It is known to many that there is a collectian of rare Indian books known as Mackenzie's collection. There is little possibility of their being printed and published and they are neither available to all. Yet they contain new, strange historical items. Wilson has published a list of those books and some select pieces of historical information, vide page 82 of that book. It is mentioned there that ANANTAVARMA, also known as KOLAHALA, was king of GANGARADHI who conquered KALINGA. We find that inscribed on stone. We have not manufactured the name GANGARADHI." Kolahala was, Chatterjee adds, the founder of the Ganga dynasty of Orissa. The ruler of that dynasty built the temples of Puri and Konark and resisted the onslaught of the Muslim invaders for about three hundred years. The truth about the Gangaridae will come to light in due course. What the long quotations reveal is the general trend of the Bengal elite. Hemchandra Raychaudhury, Niher Ranjan Roy, Radha Kumud Mukherjee and Ramesh Chandra Majumdar proceeded with the same spirit as it would be sinful in Bengal to deviate. 15 Page #102 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 16 TULSI-PRAJJA, April-June, 1992 Authors of the Classical Accounts Now the question before us is what the basis of the current views is. i.e. who the authors of the Greek and Latin accounts were, how the accounts have come down to us and what value we can attach to them. The next question in order will be how far the current views correspond to the information available. The earliest account of India is that by KTESIAS of ERIDUS in CARIA (fifth century B.C.). He was physician to the king of Persia for 20 years (418-398 B.C.). Only fragments of his treatise on India are available and Mocrindle has translated them. They contain nothing but groteque legends about India and "add practically nothing to our knowledge." Herodotus, born betwsen 490 and 480 B.C. at HALICARNASSUS wrote The Histories' which is retent in full and several translations of the work have appeard in English. His knowledge about India, however, did not pass beyond the territority that formed the twentieth Satrapy of the Iranian empire. Herodotus is the only author before Christ whose work is retent in full. Next in time comes Nearchus, a general of Alexander the Great. He is reported to have written an account of his voyage in the ERY THREAN SEA. It is lost now but ARRIAN has left a narrative in Chapters XVIII to XLIII of Indica which is believed to be copied from the original journal. Strabo joins Nearchus with DIAMACHUS, MEGASTHENES and ONESICRITUS as a retailer of fables and PLINY goes so far as to deny the reistence of his journal. We need not join issue with them as Nearchus' account does not contain anything relevant to our present discussion. According to a few incidental notices by Strabo, ARRIAN, PLINY and CLEMENS ALEXANDRINUS, Megasthenes lived with SELEUCUS NICATOR and with SIBYRTIUS, the SATRAP of ARACHOSIA. He met with both PORUS and SANDRACOTTUS. He was sent as an ambassador to King Sandracottus, who lived in the city of Palibothra after the conclusion of a treaty between SANDRACOTTUS and SELEUCUS. So he is believed to have visited India shortly before 300 B. C. His 'Indika' is lost and the fragments collected by DR, Schwanbeck and translated into English by Mecrindle cannot be ascribed to him in totto, R.C. Majumdar has argued well to establish that only a part of the fragments can de accepted as genuine. DIODORUS and STRABO were born two centuries later: Page #103 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII. No. 1 17 DIODORUS was born at AGYRIUM in SICILY and travelled in Egypt during 60 to 57 B.C. He wrote BIBLIOTHECA HISTORICA, consisting of 40 books, in 30 years. Only books I to Y and XI to XX are still retant, while fragments of the other books are preserved in later works. Fortunately, the retant books contain the material relevant to our discussion. The book II contains general description of India while book XVII describes Alexander's invasion of India, Strabo was born 63 B.C. and his GEOGRAPHY received its final shape between 17-23 A.C. Book XV of the 'Geography contains information about India. PLINY'S (23-79 A.C.) Natural History' is an encyclopaedia in 37 books, only first ten of which were completed by him. His nephew completed the rest after his death. Books II and VI of these contain information about India. A little before Pliny some unknown author wrote the work popularly known as the 'PERIPUS OF THE ERYTHREAN SEA' which describes navigation and commerce through the Indian Ocean Red Sea and Persian Gulf. CURTIUS, PLUTARCH and PTOLEMY followed PLINY in point of time. CURTIUS was a contemporary of the Roman Emperor CLAUDIUS (41-54 A.C.). He wrote the history of Alexander in ten books, two of which are lost entirely and even the rest are preserved partially, Alexander's biography and other works by PLUTARCH (46-120 A.C.) are still retant. PTOLEMY's GEOGRAPHY gives a lot of information about India. ARRIAN (96-180 A.C.) has left two works. First of these, An abasis of ALEXANDER' records Alexander's life from ascension to throne to death. He names two sources of his information ARISTOBULUS of CASSANDRIA and PTOLEMY, the son of LAGUS (who became king of Egypt later). Both accompanied Alexander during his compaign in India and being based on them, ARRIAN's account is treated as contemporary one. His second work. INDIKA, written in IONIAN dialect gives a general description of India based on Megasthenes and ERATOSTHENES, through it draws on other authors also. As mentioned above, the book II of this work contains a narrative of Nearchus' voyage. Nothing is known definitely about Justin, but he placed in the first century B.C. generally. Solinus, the Latin grammarian and compiler lived in the first half of the third century A.C. So none of the accounts written during the times of Alexander and Seleucus is retant, none of the authors of the retant accounts was an eye-witness to what he described, and what the two eye witnesses Nearch us and Page #104 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 Megasthenes wrote is known from the works composed three to four centuries later. Such a long separation in time and place causes confuses and contradictions, several of which have been noticed by scholars. Taste and temperament of the authors is also a matter that deserves consideration, Some people are willing to accept and record anything delivered to them, others care to examine. ARRIAN, STRABO and PLINY are more or less critical and rational, while Megasthenes seems willing to accept everything. But worse than Megasthenes are the well-known historians of our own times who hold the fragments collected by Schwanbeck as the whole of Megasthenes' Indica and proceed to argue that as certain things (the Mahabharata, untouchability etc.) are not mentioned by Megasthenes, they could hot have existed in the fourth century B.C. With a few fragments at hand, how can one say for sure what the book contained and what it did not? Only part of Schwanbeck's collection can be ascribed to Megasthenes and there are only 13 items in it which can be said to have formed the subject-matter of his work for sure." Even of these thirteen, there are some seven to eight items only which Megasthenes could have described correctly (e.g., geography of India and Ceylon, fertility of India, the city of Palibothra, philosophers of India, how Indians dined). The rest are worthless being based on hearsay, or opposed to laws of nature or contradicted by the respectable evidence derived from other sources. The "Nanda" ruler 18 The passages allegedly referring to a "Nanda" ruler reigning during Alexander's invasion of India occur in the writings of Curtius, Diodorus and Plutarch. ARRIAN's narrative believed to be based on Megasthenes does not contain them. Still we do not want to dismiss them as fictitious. What we solicit from the readers instead is caution. This is what DIODORUS SICULUS writes in his BIBLIOTHECA HISTORICA (Book XVII, Chapter XCIII): "He had obtained from Phageus a description of the country beyond the Indus: First came a desert which would take twelve days to traverse; beyond this was the river called the Ganges which had a width of 32 Stadia, and greater than any other Indian river; beyond this again was situated the dominions of the PRAISIOI and the GANGARIDAE, whose king Xandrames, had an army of 200,000 horse, 200;000 infantry, 2000 chariots, and 4,000 elephants trained and equipped for war. Alexander, distrusting these statements, setn Page #105 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 for PORUS and questioned him of as to their accuracy. Porus assured him of the correctness of the information, but added that the king of the GAND ARIDAE was a man of quite worthless character, and held in no respect, as he was thought to be the son of a barber. This man-the king's father--was of a comely person, and of him the queen had become deeply enamoured. The old king having been treacherously murderd by his wife, the succession had devolved on him who now reigned."8 And QUINTUS CURTIUS RUFUS reports the following: "Beyond the river (Hypasis) lay extensive deserts which it would take eleven days to traverse. Next came the Ganges, the largest river in all India, the farthest bank of which was inhabited by two nations, the GANGARIDAE and PRASII, whose king AGRAMMES kept in the field for guarding the approaches to his country 20,000 cavalry and 200,000 infantry, besides 2,000 four horsed chariots and what was the most formidable force of all, a troop of elephants which he said, ran up to the number of 3000. All this seemed to the king to be incredible, and he therefore asked PORUS, who happened to be in attendance, whether the account was true. He assured Alexander in reply that, as far as the strength of the nation and the kingdom was concerned, there was no exaggeration in the reports, but that the present king was not merely a man of originally of no distinction, but even of the very meanest condition. His father was indeed a barber, scarcely starving off hunger by his daily earnings, but who, from his being not uncomely in person, had gained the affections of the queen, and was by her influence advanced to too near a place in the confidence of the reigning monarch. Afterwards, however, he treacherously murdered his sovereign; and having put the young princes to death begot the present king, who was detested and held cheap by his subjects, as he rather took after his father and than conducted as the occupant of a throne" (Book IX Chap. II).9 Plutarch differs a little from both : 19 "This river (Ganges) they heard, had a breadth of two and thirty Stadia, and a depth of 100 fathoms, while its farther banks were covered all over with armed men, horses and elephants. For the kings of the GANDARITAI and the PRASIAI were reported to be waiting for him with an army of 80,000 horse. 200,000 foot, 8,000 war chariots and 6,000 fighting elephants. Nor was this any exaggeation for not long afterwards ANDKOCOTTUS, who had by that time mounted the throne, presented SELEUCUS with 500 elephants, Page #106 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 20 TULSI-PRAJNA April-June, 1992 and overran and subdued the whole of India with an army of 100,000 men......-ANDROCOTTUS himself, who was then but a youth, saw Alexander himself and afterwards used to declare that Alexander could easily have taken possession of the whole country since the king was hated and despised by his subjects for the wickedness of his disposition and the meanness of his origin" (Life of Alexander, Chap. LXII),10 Now we proceed to discuss the variations. First, there are differences in details about the army. DIODORUS mentions 4,000 elephants, Curtius 3,000 and Plutarch 6,000; Curtius and Diodorus concur in giving the figure of the horses 20,000 while Plutarch raises it to 80,000. Perhaps Plutarch was exaggerating to impress his readers. Or we may assume that the figures got muddled on transmission. Whatever the truth, such variations are immaterial in contrast to the fact that while both Curtius and Diodorus speak about a king of GANGARIDAE and PRAISIOI, Plutarch mentions "kings." It means the two kingdoms were seperate and ruled by two different kings. But Plutarch does not name the two kings. Nor does he specify the kingdom the throne of which ANDROCOTTUS mounted. Perhaps he himself was confused and ignorant. That is the explanation based on the assumption that the current reading and translation are correct. We have, however, reason to believe that the original version had "the king" instead of "kings". The last sentence in the passed quoted above refers to "the king", not "kings" (that Alexander could easily have taken possession of the whole country since the king was hated and despised by his subjecis etc.). For the sake of consistency, the earlier sentence should also have "the king" and nothing else. Obviously the reading has got corrupt, if the translators are not to blame. As to the name of the king, Diodorus has Xandrames, while Curtius gives Agrammes. R.M. Smith pleads for a lot of changes in the Purana texts, suggests that the last ruler of the Nanda dynasty was called Nandendu and concludes that Xandrame. was none but Nandendu. 11 Other scholars have paid more attention to the reading 'Agrammes'. According to Hemchandra Ray Chaudhury Agrammes is the Greek form of Augrasena or Augraseni and Dhanananda was called Augrasena or Augraseni because he was the son of Ugrasena (i.e. Mahapadma). Such arguments are wide off the mark as Xandrames in Greek can stand for Chandramas (i.e. Chandrama) only on phonetic grounds. Remove X' from Xandrames and you Page #107 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol XVIII, No 4 21 get Andrames which leads to corruptions like Agrames, Agrammes, Agramen, Agrammen etc. Such readings do not deserve the attention they have received. Our scholars could have realised it but for their bias, There is apparently a contradiction between the account of Curtius and Diodorus. Diodorus blames the queen for the murder of the old king while Curtius blames the barber. Diodorus mentions the immoral relationship between the queen and the barber but fails to indicate that the latter became a king after the death of the old king or that he begot the present ruler after putting to death the young princes. The assertion that "the succession had devolved on him who now ruled" can only mean that the ruler concerned was born before the death of the old king even though he was rumoured to be an illegitimate son of the barber. If Curtius is taken to mean that the barber chopped off the head of the old king, killed his young sons and took the queen for his wife openly, that is simply impossible. Ministers, generels, priests and soldiers of the kingdom could not have taken that easy. So we have to conclude that the king and the young princes were killed secretly and lover of the queen became a guardian and adviser of the young in cumbent of th. throne, He might have weilded the defacto supreme power for the period of the minority of the new king. But he was dead and Xandrames was ruling independently at the time of invasion. Illegitimate birth of Xandrames might or might not have a basis in reality. Scandalous character of the queen as well as the wicked disposition of the son might have contributed to the theory of the illegitimate birth. The Nandas in the Purana texts Whether the above accounts have anything to do with the Nandas cannot be answered fully and finally without referring to the Puranas. The Purana text based on the Matsya, Vayu and Brahmanda and edited by Pargiter runs as following: mahAnandisutazcApi zUdrAyAM kalikAMzajaH / utpatsyati mahApadmaH sarvakSatrAntako nRpaH // tataH prabhRti rAjAno bhaviSyA zUdrayonayaH / ekarAT sa mahApadma ekacchatro bhaviSyati / / aSTAzIti tu varSANi pRthivyAJca bhaviSyati / sarvakSatramathoddhRtya bhAvinArthena coditaH / / Page #108 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 22 TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 sukalpAdisutA hyaSTau samA dvAdaza te nRpAH / mahApadmasya paryAye bhaviSyanti nRpAH kramAt / / uddhariSyati tAn sarvAn kauTilyo vai dviraSTabhiH / bhuktvA mahIM varSazataM tato mauryAn gamiSyati / / and the Bhagavata version edited by him reads the following : mahAnandi suto rAjan zUdrAgarbhodbhavo balI / mahApadmapatiH kazcinnandaH kSatravinAzakRt / / tato nRpA bhaviSyanti zUdraprAyAstvadhAmikAH / sa ekacchatrAM pRthivI manullaMdhita zAsanaH / / zAsiSyati mahApadmaH dvitIya iva bhArgavaH / tasya cASTau bhaviSyanti sumAlya pramukhAH sutAH / / ya imAM bhokSyanti mahIM rAjAnaH sma zataM samAH / nava nandAn dvijaH kazcit prapannAnuddhariSyati / teSAmabhAve jagatIM mauryA bhokSyanti vai kalau // " R.M. Smith reads "zUdrAyAM kAlasaMvRtaH" for "zUdrAyAM kalikAMzajaH" and suggest the following reading for the last two verses : mahApadmasya paryAye bhaviSyanti napAH kramAt / sahalyastatsuto hyaSTau samA dvAdaza vai nRpaH / / sahalyAd yaH smRtastvanyo nandenduH sa bhaviSyati / uddhariSyati tAn sarvAn kauTilyo vidviDaSTabhiH / bhuktvA mahIM varSazataM tato mauryAn gamiSyati // " These texts demonstrate how the above accounts differ from the facts about the Nanda dynasty. Following are the points of difference : 1. Parentage-Both Diodorus and Curtius declare that the then monarch was the son of a barber. The Nandas were not barbers according to the Puranas. Even the Mudraraksasa does not say so. The Nandas were Sudras' according to the Puranas and the word does not necessarily mean "barbers'. Both Curtius and Diodorus declare that the favourite of the queen was a barber. Curtius is very replicit about the miserable condition of the fellow. "Scarcely Starving off hunger by his daily earnings" is a description which applies to a person both of whose parents were poor barbers. That does not apply to Mahapadma, the founder of the Nanda dynasty. Mahapadma was not the son of a barber. He was the son of Mahanandi, the last ruler of Sisunaga dynasty. He was called Sudra simply because his mother came of a Sudra family. The Puranas, Page #109 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIU, No. 1 23 varying in other details, are unanimous about the parentage of Mahapadma : (1) mahAnandisutazcApi zUdrAyAM kalikAMzajaH (2) mahAnandisutazcApi zUdrAyAM kAlasaMvRtaH (3) mahAnandisuto rAjan zUdrAgarbhodbhavo balI All these lines from the Purans mean the same thing and exclude the possibility of his being a barber's son. The same applies to his sons and successors. 2. Conspiracy and Murder-The barber in the above account usurps supreme power through immoral relationship with the queen resulting in conspiracy and murder. The Puranas do not mention conspiracy and murder and they need not. Though born of a Sudra woman, Mahapadma was the son of the king and in absence of any male issue born of his Ksatriya queens, Mahapadma succeeded to the throne as a matter of course after the death of his father, Mahanandi. Had he usurped the throne through conspiracy and murder, neither the Puranas nor the authors of well-known Sanskrit works could have overlooked and omitted it. That applies to the alleged murder of the young princes also. Evidence of the entire Indian tradition goes against it. Scholars have tried by hook or by crook to identify Xandrames with the last ruler of the Nanda dynasty and hence they lay the blame of conspiracy and murder at the door of Mahapadma without least evidence. But then, they fail to agree on the vital points of the identity of the victim and the time of the murder.14 3. States of the Usurper-It is indisuptable to the Pura nas that Mahapadma succeeded Mahtanandi. The only dispute we notice therein is regarding the length of his reign. One reading assigns 88 years to him, the other 28 only. Diodorus does not say the lover of the queen ascended to the throne after the murder of the old king. Xandrames ascended to the throne immediately after the death of the old king and was the ruler at the time Alexander invaded the country according to him. Curtius is a later author and surely less reliable. Moreover, Curtius is quite equivocal when he speaks about the assumption of supreme power, The interpretation suitable to the context is that the barber controlled the kingdom as the guardian of the young incombent, He did not become a king even for an hour. Bairam Khan had the supreme power after the death of Humayun, but he did not become the emberor of Delhi and he is not counted as such. The lover of the queen too might have enjoyed power similarly. Hence he cannot be identified with Mahapadma who Page #110 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ TULASI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 became a sovereign in the real sense of the term and founded a dynasty. 24 4. Number of the components of the dynasty-Indian tradition is almost unanimous in holding that the Nanda dynasty consisted of nine rulers. The 'Mahabodhi Vamsa' from Ceylon supports it. Hemchandra, the Jaina Scholar reduces it to eight-i.e. Mahapadma and his seven sons. Diodorus names only one king who succeeded the old king-Xandrames. As the barber favoured by the queen did not ascend the throne, we must keep him aside. Moreover, as ANDROCOTTUS (or SANDROCOTTUS) had replaced Xandrames when SELEUCUS visited India, the previous dynasty must have ended with Xandrames. Even if the equivocal Statement of Curtius is taken to mean that the barber had become a king, the number does not exceed two. Realising the obstacle it places in the way of identifying Xandrames with a Nanda ruler, our esteemed scholars have left no stone unturned to reduce the number of the Nanda rulers. Despite a lot of manipulation of texts, R.m. Smith has not succeeded in bringing the number to one or two. There were three rulers in the Nanda dynasty according to him, namely, Mahapadma, Sahalya and Nandendu, So even the best efforts for identification have failed.15 ff Yet R.M. Smith has created a grammatical problem by his manipulation of the text. He translates paryAye in mahApadmasya paryAye as 'manner'. The sentence, therefore, means: "Nanda's successors did continue in this manner, and it was not a Monier Williams, quoting the popular one." 'SaddharmaPundarika, gives such a meaning of the word. The trouble with the interpretation is it disregards the style of the Puranas. Whenever the Puranas use the word, they use it in the sense of the line of succession,. But that is not the main objection against him. The real problem is if there were only two kings after Mahapadma in the dynasty, the text should not have used the plural (91:) but dual for them. Absence of dual in English is only partially responsible for this oversight on the part of the esteemed scholar. 5. Duration of Reign-Xandrames must have reigned after the murder of the old king and before the ascension to the throne of SANDRACOTTUS according to the testimony of the classical writers. Nobody assigns a date later than 309 B.C. to the ascension of SANDRACOTTUS i.e. the reign of the dynasty did not last longer than 18 years after the invasion. Xandrames was ruling independently at the time of invasion and his vices had become known to all. So he must have been around 22 at the time. If he ascended the throne at the Page #111 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 25 age of 12, he might have ruled for a decade before Alexander's invasion. Thus the entire span of his reign could not have passed beyond 28 years. Though that does not scem much different from what the Ceylone tradition says about the Nanda dynasty, it does not stand the text of Indian tradition. The Nandas ruled for 22 years according to thc Ceylonese tradition. The minimum span in the Jain tradition is 95 years, while it is 100 years in the Puranas. Even according to R.M. Smith, the dynasty ruled for 108 years (Mahapadma for 88, Sahalya for 8 and Nandendu for 12 years):16 The reign of the dynasty, however, cannot be less than 136 years. Coronation of Mahapadma took place 1500 years after the birth of Pariksita and the latter was coronated at the age of 36, which marked the commencement of ihe Kali age, When the original 1200 years of the Kali as well as the 400 years of the Sandhya' of the Krta expired and signs of better times were not seen, the Kali was decala red to have got extended. That happened 1636 years after the birth of Pariksita. The Puranas, however, declare that the Kali got extended after the Nanda dynasty (tataH nandAtprabhatyeSa offaf affacufa). Thus the Nanda dynasty began 1500 years after the birth of Pariksita and ended 1636 years after the same, So the reign of the Nanda dynasty covered a period of 136 years(1636-1500=136). 17 How can the brief rule of Xandrames be identified with the long 136 years of the Nanda rule ? GANGARIDAE : Its Location As Xandrames cannot be identified with a Nanda ruler, his successors identification with Chandragupta Maurya loscs ground. Still we discuss it further to dispel and doubts that remain. Bankim Chandra Chatterjee deemed it enough to identify GANGARIDAE with the RADHA region of West Bengal and PALIBOTHRA with PATALIPUTRA. Hemachandra RayChaudhury in his "STUDIES IN INDIAN ANTIQUITIES' concluded that the vast territory lying on the east bank of the Ganga-Bhagirathi was called GANGARIDAE or GANGARASTRA while PRASIOI, PRACHYA KASTRA in Sanskrit covered the entire Ganga valley from the Ganga-Bhagirathi and included TAMRALIPTA. GANGE, famous centre of overseas trade in the GANGARIDAE mentioned by the PERIPLUS and PTOLEMY lay at the mouth of the KAMBERIKHON (the river Kumar in Bangladesh. Nihar Ranjan Ray supports him and their views have gained wide currency and recognition. While not deviating from this tradition in general, some scholars in Bengal have opined otherwise on certain point. Thus, it is said PRASIAQI is Page #112 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 derived from PALASIYA and the word 'PALASA' means the country of Magadha according to the 'Sabda-kalpadruma' and the 'Sabdaratnavali'. The oldest authority, DIODORUS has 'GANDARIDAI' for 'GANGARIDAE' and so it is contended that the original word was niether 'GANGARASTRA/GANGARADHI' (as Bankim Chandra Chatterjee held) nor 'GANGAHRDI' (as the Bengali poet Satyendranath Datta believed), but 'Gaudiya'.19 26 Bankim Chandra was careless enough to mistake an ambassador for a historian. His incompetence as a linguist is obvious. Even in Bengal nobody follows him in holding that MEWAR is derived from MADHYA-RASTRA and GUJARAT from GARJA-RASTRA. There is nothing to prove that a word like GANGARADHI was really in vogue during the days of Alexander. It is impossible to explain words like SANDACOTTUS and PALIBOTHRA without conceding the point that the classical authors got their proper names from Sanskrit. So there is little possibility that Alexander and his contemporaries ever heard a word like 'GANGARADHI', As to the use of the word in the inscription of ANANTAVARMA, it would be relevant only if Anantavarma were anterior to or contemporary of Alexander. We learn the following from Dr. Radha Kumud Mukherjee in this connection: Anantavarma assumed the title of 'trikalingadhipati' in 1038 and founded what became known later as the eastern Ganga dynasty, he exploited a civil war in Kalinga to annex it to his kingdom. Sometime before 1138 A,C., he invaded Bengal during the reign of the Pala rulers and waged war against the Kalchuris and the Paramaras, he lived up to 1150 A.C. and gained fame by having got the well-known temple of Puri constructed.20 The year '1038' is obviously a misprint here. The context reveals that 1138 A.C. is intended here. So we find that Anantavarma alias KOLAHALA flourished more than 1400 years after Alexander. Lot of old names could become obslete and replaced by new ones over such a long period along with changes in political geography. So the word known to Anantavarma need not have remained in vogue during the days of Alexander. Bankim Chandra Chatterjee hits a remarkable point when he asserts that the Ganga flowing from north to south marked the eastern border of the GANGARINAI. applicable in case of West Bengal to some extent. The river West Bengal through the south-west of Malda district and branches into two near DHULIAN in the district of Murshidabad, One of the branches known as Padma flows to the east in Bangladesh and joins the sea That is enters Page #113 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 27 Vol. XVIII, No. 1 ultimately. The other known as Bhagirathi and later Hooghly flows through West Bengal to the sea, To accept the interpretation of Bankim Chandra Chatterjee means inculding Tamralipta (in what is the district of Midnapore now) in GANGARIDAE but excluding the whole of Bengladesh and the easiern part of Murshidabad and the districts of Nadia, North 24 Parganas, South 24 Parganas and Calcutta totally. Scholars both in Bangladesh do not like the idea of excluding Bangladesh despite pulling GANGARIDAE so far. That is what necessitates placing GANGARASTRA on the east bank of the Bhagirathi and PRACHYA-RASTRA on the western bank of it. Authors of north Bengal are not satisfied even with that and, therefore, they seek 'Gaudiya' in GANDARDAI. GANGARIDAI' cannot be derived from GANGA-RASTRA in fact. Nor can we derive GANDARDAI from GAUDA or GAUDIYA. Transformation of 'au' in latter words into 'a' and appearance of 'n', 'ra' and 'da' in the GANDARDAI demand explanation and nobody free from prejudices would admit theories like that. In their zeal to glorify their land such scholars do not bother to think why a ruler of Bengal would bother to confront a foreign army as soon as it crossed the river Beas and proceeded towards the Ganga. If it is argued that the kingdom of Xandrames extended up to that point, a number of questions arise. Is the fact that part or whole of Bengal was included in his kingdom enough to establish that Xandrames hailed from Bengal ? What is there to prove that the army of a kingdom that extended from Bengal to Haryana consisted of the Bengalis only? And finally if Xandrames' army included nonBengalis, who are expected to be deployed against the foreign invader on the western border at a time when there were no railways and no aircrafts-soldiers from Haryana and Uttar Prndesh or those from Bangladesh and W. B.? So the boast of Bankim Chandra Chatterjee and followers that Alexander's army retreated for the fear of the Bengali army is simply ludicrous and false to the core. We have seen earlier GANGARIDAI mentioned in the quotations from DIODORUS, CURTIUS and PLUTARCH. Now let us see what Solinus says- The least breadh of the Ganges is eight miles, and its greatest twenty. Its depth where it is shallowest is fully a hundred feet. The people who live in the furthest. Off part are the GANGARIDES, whose king possesses 1000 horse, 700 elephant and 60,000 foot in apparatus of war,"21 And Diodorus remarks : "Now this river (Ganges), which is 30 stadia broad, flows north to south, and empties its waters into the ocean forming the eastern boundary of the GANGARIDAL a nation which possesses the greatest number Page #114 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 28 TULSI PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 of elephants and the largest in size. Owing to this, their country has never been conquered by any foreign king; for all other nations dread the overwhelming number and strength of these animals. Thus Alexander the Macedonian, after conquering all Asia, did not make war upon the GANGARIDAI, as he did on all others; for when he had arrived with all his troops at the river Ganges, and had subdued all other Indians, he abandoned as hopeless an invasion of the GANGARIDAI, when he learned that they possessed four thousand elephants well-trained and equipped for war."'92 The Ganga flows mostly from north-east to south-west in Bangladesh. With exception of the districts of KHULNA and BARISAL, there is no territory in Bangladesh with the Ganga flowing north to south in the east, Nor have we got a single proof to establish that any part of West Bengal or Bangladesh was known as GANGARIDAI in the fourth century B.C. It would be indeed peculiar to apply the name GANGA RASTRA' not to the regions where numerous cities, holy places and cultural centres flourished but to a region near the sea. Were that true in ancient India, we would find something in literature to substantiate it. The only support for connecting GANGARIDAE with West Bengal and Bangladesh comes from words like farther" and "farthest" in the accounts. Thus Curtius says that "the farthest bank" of the Ganges was inhabited by two nations, the GANGARIDAI and PRASII, Plutarch says the "farther banks" of the Ganges were covered with the army of the GANDARITAI and PRAISIAI. Solinus says, "The people who live in the farthest-off part are the GANGARIDAES." How can that mean West Bengal and Bangladesh? The words "farther" and "farthest'' are relative and ought to be understood according to the context. That Alexander's army retreated from the western bank of Vipasa is a point admitted by all. The western bank of the Ganga was far" to the Macedonians, the eastern back of the Ginga w is "farther" and the places beyond that were "farthest" 10 them. That is what Curtius, Plutarch and Solinus mean. While we do not find a nim; like GANGARASTRA applied to any part of West Bengal or Bangladesh, something like that is used in the Puranas for a territory under the Gupta kings : anugaGgA prayAgaM ca sAketaM magadhAMstathA / etAn janapadAn sarvAn bhokSyante guptavaMzajAH / / " Two of the copies of the Vayupurana have 'anugangam' inseead of 'anuganga' according to Pargiter. So we can conclude that the Page #115 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 29 territories lying in the west of Prayaga on the bank of the Ganga were known as 'anuganga' or 'anugangam' during the reign of the Imperial Guptas. That does not, however, mean that 'anugangam' is identical with GANGARIDAI. The word GANGARIDAE or GANGARIDAI is used once by Curtius, twice by Justin and once by Diodorus and Ptolemy. Plutarch has GANDARITAI at one place and GANDARIDAI at the other. Diodorus uses GANGARIDAI once ana GANDARITAI thrice. Thus, even Diodorus who is the earliest of them, uses two forms of the name. 24 That shows the inability of the authors of the accounts to pick up the word and spell it correctly, So we have to look for a word in Sanskrit which could have got transformed in the three-fold manner mentioned above. Gangadvariya is the only word we find. If the river Ganga flouring from north to south formed the eastern border of the nation, it must have included all the territories between the rivers Vipasa and Ganga. "Gangadvara' is the other word for Haridvara and its neighbouring land and a Janapada could well have been named after it. In this connection, we may refer to Dr. B.C. Law : "The Bhagirathi is seen for the first time near GANGOTRI in the GARHWAL region. This combined course from Devaprayaga onwords is known as the Ganga, Its descent from Dehradun to Haridvara is generally speedy and known as GANGADVARA. The flow of the Ganga is south wards from Haridvara to Bulandashahar and then up to Prayaga where the Yamuna joins it, it flows to the south-east. It flows to the east from Allahabad to Rajmahal and then it turns to the south-east again (retranslated from Hindi)."'25 Thus, the south ward flow of the Ganga is from Haridvara to Bulandshahar and that precisely forms the eastern border of the Ganga dvariya" janapada of the times of Alexander. Curtius is, therefore, undoubtedly mistaken when he seems to place GANGARIDAE on the eastern bank of the Ganga with the Prasii. Diodorus, who is prior to him, mentions the eastern border of the GANGARIDAE clearly at one place but commits a similar mistake at the other. Such confusion seems to have arisen from corruption in the text. To insist upon placing GANGARIDAE on the eastern bank of the Bhagirathi somewhere in or up to Bangladesh on the authority of Curtius and self-contradicting Diodorus, one must place Prachya-rastra too on the same bank and there by exclude Pataliputra from it which is sought to be identified with Palibothrus by the adherents of the current theories.

Aphorism and Contradiction The aphorism under examination seems to be an innocent statement of the Law of Contradiction. However, the purpose of this aphorism? is to examine the Jaina logic of seven paralogisms, which is declared to be a wrong theory because in one substance it is not possible that contradictory qualities should exist simultaneously. However, I think that many of the misgivings would have been avoided if there would have been proper reference to the Universe of Discourse and a little more sympathetic understanding of the Jaina point of view. For, even the law of Contradiction means that two contradictory terms B and Not-B cannot both be true at the same * The Brahma Sutras are the earliest known work on the subject. Papini refers to Parasarya Sutras (in iv. 3.110). Most probably these are the same; but they are neither the vedanta sutras, as the commentators percieve nor the substance of the Upanisadas. Sutrakar cites quotations from 8 other Acharyas. Furthermore he advocates absolutistic thiesm and refutes of the opposed systems. The opponents are the Samkhyas and Mimansakas and not the Arhatas or Jains as such. The Jains recognise two fundamental catagories of objects Jiva and Ajiva, self and non-self with their subordinate catagories etc. But the Sutrakar (in II. 2.33-36) does not propagate or reject the Jain theory. He simply talks about the 'Negation'. Previously he refuted the admission of Samayaya (as a separate existence) in Sutra 11.2.13 (FHITETYTTATEH Altanzaafena:) and now he speaks not to inhere in one and the same thing contradictory attributes as existent and nonexistent because it is also impossible (naMkasminnasambhavAt). Anyhow the reputed and learned scholar like Dr. Ramjee singh bas examined the Sutra (Not the all four Sutras) critically. He has included latter thinkings and the views of the commentators and maintained that any charge of contradiction against the co-presence of being and not being in the real is a figment of apriori logic. We invite the scholars to join him and discuss the matter throughly. -Editor Page #118 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 32 TULASI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 time of one and the same individual thing A. In other words, two contradictory propositions cannot both be true, that is, one must be false. A man cannot at the same time, be alive' and 'dead'. This means that the products of thought should be free from inconsistency and contradiction i.e., valid in Hamilton's sense. However, Mill goes ahead and holds that it must also be true, i.e., agree with the reality of things. It means that before dealing with a judgment or reasoning expressed in language, the import of its terms should be fully understood, in other words, logical postulates to be allowed to state explicitly in language all that is implicitly contained in thought." The Pragmatists also complain against the Formal Logic regarding its abstraction from the context. Even Mathematical Logicians, according to whom there is "no essential connection between connotation and denotation", admit the conception of a Universe of Discourse in the sense of "a given context, or range of significance." 2. Hegelian Interpretation of the Law of Contradiction That being and not-being are identical seems to be Hegel's denial of the Law of Contradiction. But it is more apparent than real. It is the very Law which compels us to pass from the second to the third category of each triad, because reason cannot rest in contradiction. Hegel understands identity as mutual implication or correlation So while subordinating distinction to identity, Hegel admits two utterly different kinds of identity, corresponding to the difference of thought and intuition, which cannot be reduced to further identity. This is contradiction. A is B' and 'A is not B' cannot both be true if it is assumed that *A' as subject of either suggested predication, is absolutely selfidentical without difference. When it is true that A is both B and not-B. A is identical-in-difference, and even empirical thinking, moves only on the assumption that identity-in-difference is a fact, etc., if not a universal fact. Hegel might seem to violate the Law of Contradiction when we identify thought with understanding. Antithesis is not just the negation of thesis but it is the negated thesis. In empirical thinking, violation of the Law of Contradiction might be avoided by the expansion in space or time of the logical subject. So, we can conclude that the dialectical triad does not violate the Law of Contradiction, rather the opposites of dialectic reconcile contradiction and so far it has failed fully to reconcile contradiction in the synthesis of any triad, it becomes the thesis to a fresh antithesis.

The Four-cornered Negation and Contradiction The four-cornered negation of the Madhyamika Buddhists, according to whom, reality is not (neither B nor not-B nor both B and not-B nor neither B and not-B). But if reality is neither Being nor Non-being" can also be negated. But the Madhyamikas hold that though the reality is not Being or Non-being but it cannot be different from them. So even the neither...nor (i.e, neither Being nor Non-Being) has to be negated, without affirming either Being or Non-Being. In short, there is negation and negation only or double negation. This looks like violating the Law of Contradiction for there seems to be an assertion that there is middle between the twoContradiction because there is denial of both. But the Madhyamikas never admit that they are never asserting that there is a middle between the two contradictions B and not-B. Professor Raju, however, suggest a technical device for the relief of the Buddhist to meet the charge of violation of the Law of Contradiction. In the fourcornered negation or just double negation, if we distinguish between contrary and Contradictory opposition of Western Logic, we will see that two contraries can be negated but not the two contradictories. 4. Law of Contradiction and the Advaita Vedanta To Sankara, Being and Not-being are contraries, not contradictories. Reality is Being; Non-being is unreal as the son of a barren woman but there is the third order of reality which is neither Being nor Non-being. This is the phenomenal world which is neither real nor unreal but phenomenal or indescribable. This is Maya. In classical Sanskrit, perhaps, there is no distinction between the contrary and the contradictory hence the discussion is carried over the principle of double negation-if it is applicable to an opposition, it is contradictory, otherwise contrary. To illustrate this point, I shall discuss in brief about the nature of self or A man as described in the Upanishads.' That self is mobile and yet immobile also; distant yet near, transcendent yet immanent. Sankara, 10 in his interpretation to this verse anticipates the objections of his opponents as to how these contradictory predications are made about the same subject? This is apparent violation of the Law of Contradiction. But Sankara says that there is no such fallacy. (naisa dosah)11 because "two contradictory statements have been made from two separate standpoints. Atman is said to be immobile and one viewed from the ultimate point of view when the Brahman-Atman is free from all conditions. But it can also be described as more mobile Page #120 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 34 TULSI PRAJNA. April-June, 1992 than mind when it is associated with the powers of limiting adjunct of being an internal organ, hence there is such Sruti passage, manso javiyo (faster than mind).12 Similarly, Atman is described as far and distant (tad dure) as it is beyond their reach but for the wise people, it is described as within the hearts of all (tadantrasya sarvasva)13 who knows the reality. Similar statements with contradictory predications are found at other places and Sankara has not other alternative but to reconcile them with the help of multi-valued logic, the merit of which he unfortunately forgets while criticising the Jaina theory of affirmative-negative predications (asti-nasti-vada). However, if we remember the Jaina doctrine of reality14 as identity-in-difference which is both a permanent and changing entity manifesting through constant change of appearance and disappearance, then we can easily understand that a fact of reality when looked at from the underlying permanent substance may be described as permanent, where from the point of view of the modes (paryaya) which appear and disappear, the thing may be described to be non-permanent and changing. This difference of aspect is the well known Jaina doctrine of Naya. It is indeed a tragedy that Sankara, while making distinction between the Vyavaharic and Paramarthic points of view throughout his commentary forgets the same in respect of Jainism. In common experience, we find in the same object, the existence of one thing (pot) while the non-existence of the other (cloth). This does not mean that the same thing is both pot and cloth, hence there is no contradiction. 15 Examples of co-existing self-contradictory attributes are daily perceived only in the changed context. For examples, in the same tree, the trunk is stationery while the branches and leaves are in motion. Like Kundakunda, Sankara examines every problem from the two points of view, practical and real and this doctrine is the supporting edifice of the Advait philosophy. The same material clay or gold may be transformed into various forms. So to speak of a thing as one or many entirely depends upon the point of view we adopt. The same substance mud is spoken differently as jan, jug etc. "Devaduta although being one only form the object of many different names and notions according as he is considered in himself or in his relations to other; thus he is thought and spoken of as a man, Brahmin, learned in the Veda, son, grandson, etc. etc." Does it not exactly look like the Jaina point of view of asti-nastivada. Then why Sankara adopts a double standard? Is it because he was a mere commentator of an already existing work ?17 5. Ramanuja and Contradiction Like Sankara, Ramanuja also criticises Jaina theory of seven Page #121 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 35 paralogisms. 18 No doubt, he recognises substance and attributes as distincts but he says that asti and nasti cannot be predicated of the same thing from the Dravya, point of view alone, 19 i.e. the same substance cannot have the two contradictory predicates. Inspite of this, Ramanuja seems to be very much prejudiced about the Jaina theory when he asks: How can we say that the same thing is and is not at the same time? However, Ramanuja forgets that if we describe a thing both from the standpoint of underlying substance (dravya) and its modifications (paryaya), we shell have no such difficulty. We meet with these difficultics because we prefer to live in the world of empty abstractians. In attempting to reject the theory of identity-indifference (bhedabheda). Ramanuja 20 must be fully conscious how his own theory of qualified monism (visitadvaita) is seriously affected. In a sense, the Vedantic metaphysics of Ramanuja is the doctrine of one and many. It is one when we talk of the cne absolute Brahman, it is many when we know about the multiple jivas and the multivesre universe. And when reality is one and many at the same time, Vedantism itself becomes a sufficient argument in favour of Syadvada. How the At solute, which is one and only one, becomes the self of all? How Brahman consists of both conscious (chit) and unconscious (achita) elements? If these contradictions can be reconciled by Ramanuja, he should not find fault with the very logical calculus of reconciliation. Hence, Ramanuja's charge of contradiction upon Syadvada Logic is inconsistent with his own position. 21 Hence, it is better to formulate his position as identity-n-difference (Hegel), unity-in-diversity (Bradley), a constant which is varying. True, Sankara and Bradhy would condemn the world of diversity to the hell of appearance of maya, Ramanuja has to accept both. Hence any charge of contradiction upon Syadvada will simply recoil on his head like a bomerang and destroy the entire edifice of his metaphysics. Anekantavada pleads for soberness and loyalty to experience which discards absolutism. The dual nature of things is proved by a reductio-ad-absurdum of the opposite views. This does not mean any offence to the canons of logic. The concept of pure logic which is prior to and absolutely independent of experience, is dangerous. "Logic is to septematise and rationalise what experience offers."*22 In one word logic must be loyal to reason and experience alike. Even Vedanta ultimately relin on experience to prove the reality of existence-consciousness Brahman. 6. Some other Vedantic Acharyas and Contradiction According to Vijnanbhikshu, unless the qualitative differences (prakara bheda) are recognised as true, two fundamentally opposite Page #122 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 36 TULSI-PRAJNA, April-June, 1992 things cannot be reconciled into one object. But if the differences are recognised as true, it amounts to the Vedantic position,23 But can we not ask the Vedantin : how ultimate differences can be reconciled with ultimat identity of Brahman ? Either they should accept identity as ultimate or differences as ultimate but not both. However, the Jainas can avoid such a pitfall by accepting the differences from the relative standpoints. We can speak of existence (bhava) and non-existence (abhaya) of the same thing from two standpoints without being inconsistent. Existence and non-existence, coexisting in the same thing is said to be contradictory because both of them are taken as whole characteristics. It can be well reconciled by taking them as part characteristics. Vallabha24 also suffers from the same defect as Vijnanbhikshu when he insists upon the fact that differences can be reconciled only in the Absolute Brahman, who assumes the form of the Jiyas for enjoyment of bliss. However, it is difficult to follow how the formless Brahman assumes different forms: how one becomes many ? If the law of contradiction is not violated here, the same change cannot be levelled against the Jaina position when the contradictory attributes are said to inhere in the same object from the different relative standpoints. Srikantha's misunderstanding of the Jaina position is worse. While he accepts that possibility of reconciliation of the contradictory attributes in the same object from different standpoints, he outright denies that the Jainas ever adhere to the relativistic logic,25 Lastly, Nimbarka and Bhaskara. who broadly accept the Jaina principle of identity-in-difference or unity-in-diversity with regard to nature of reality. also fail to appreciate the true impart of Jaina principle. Nimbark,26 for instance, who is out and out upholder of this principle, refuses to admit the application of this principle in matier of Syadvada. His commentator Sri Nivasacharyas26 explanation becomes unphilosophical when he says that the qualification for admitting this principle of identity-in-difference lies in the Sruti and not logic. Bhaskar28 argues that if non-absolutism (anekanta) is universal, it becomes absolute (ekanta), of not it is nothing definite. Thus "tossed between the two horns of the dilemma non-apsolutism thus evaporates.''29 However, Bhaskar fails to note the Jaina distinction between valid non-absolute (samyakanekanta) and invalid non-absolute (mithya-anekanta).30 To be valid, anekanta must not be absolute but relative. The doctrine of non-absolutism can be interpreted either as absolute or non-absolute according to Pramana or Naya respectively, Page #123 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Vol. XVIII, No. 1 which only suggests that non-absolutism is not absolute unconditionally. But the unconditionality of Anekanta or Syadvada is quite different from the normal meaning of unconditionality. This is like the idea contained in the passage "I do not know myself", where there is no contradiction there, there is no contradiction between knowledge and ignorance. Similarly, in the sentence, "I am undecided", there is atleast one decision that I am undecided. As a matter of fact, these critics fail to appreciate the fact that everything is possible only in relation to and as distinct from something other. Contradictory characteristics of reality are interpreted as co-existent in the same object from different points of view without any offence to logic. Law of Contradiction is the negative aspect of the Law of Identity. Hence "any charge of contradiction against the copresence of being and non-being in the real is a figment of apriori logic.

University News, 28 (18) pp. 11-12. The conotation of the word "education" is that one gives and the other takes it. But the right word is learning. In the process of learning one need not always depend on the teachers. One can learn from nature, from one's own society and tradition and mostly from one's own experiences. Self learning is the highest from of learning, the consummation of education. 2. Menon, M.G.K. The role of education'. University News, 27 (23) pp. 27-30. The role of education is to transform static society into one vibrant with a commitment to change and development. This implies the emergence of a learning society, in which people of all ages and all sections not only have access to education but also get involved in the process of continuing education. Open, non-formal, part-time and adult education must be as meaningful as formal education. These two streams must reinforce each other. 3. Venkataramiah, E.S- The secret of teaching'. University News, 27 (52) pp. 11-13. The essential truth about teaching is that it is a one to one encounter. Even when a teacher speaks to a large class, the spark of success is lit when the individual student sitting in the middest of a large number of others like to believe that the teacher is addressing him and others, even if present, are there only by accident, otherwise too, what is being said is addressed to him and him alone. 4. Mohanty, S. B. 'Effective classroom management in higher education'. University News, 27 (49) pp. 6-9. The classroom management strategies identified are (1) knowledge of students and their backgrounds, (2) mastery over content area, (3) appropriate method of teaching, (4) witness of the teacher, (5) purposeful with holding and focussing of attention, (6) appropriate use of reward and punishment, (7) use of homour, (8) use of questions, (9) sensitiveness to student responses, (10) fairness in dealing and (11) democratic approach.

Guidance service involve a process of dynamic interpersonal relationship designed to influence the attitude and subsquent behavi. our of a student. Through appropriate guidance services the student is helped to develop desirable attitude and behaviour pattern. A college or a university department with a guidance centre can contribute to a richer, fuller and more satisfying life for the students, teachers, the administrators and the parents. Therefore, such a professional service should be an integral part of the college community, all over the country. 6. Lal, MM. 'Nehru's concept of education', University News, 27 (36) pp. 1-5. According to Nehru: "Right education must be an all round development of the human being, a harmonising of our internal conflicts and a capacity to cooperate with others." Great importance is attached to the practical aspects of education Education to him was a means to amend and that too the social and national end. 7. Ghosh, D. K. 'New education policy-role of management, University News, 27 (49) pp. 1-3. As the internal efficiency of each institution improves. the performance of teachers and students would improve also. This implies that the role of the administration is to play in the entire system for bringing about greater internal efficiency of each institution. However, the administration of today is no way better in its form and content than what it was 30 years before. The reasons are lack of exposure, absence of training and refresher courses, lack of knowledge of the system or even of one's own institution, lack of motivation, presence of outdated and unworkable age old rules, absence of well defined job description, absence of well defined reporting system as also of involvement and belonging. 8. Mathur, M.L. 'National pattern of education and restructuring of courses., University News, 27 (52) pp. 1-6. It has been long felt that the first degree courses in Indian Universities need structuring to make them serve better the cause of higher education. Restructuring of course means total redesign of structure to remove the basic weaknesses in our present first degree education and bringing it to international standred and making it relevant to our living. There has to be a national consensus on up gradation of courses and making them more relevant to social living and improving quality of life.

Distance education suffers from poor quality due to the following reasons : () quality of instructional materials, (2) delay in their dispatch, (3) lack of two way communication between the distance learner and the tutor, (4) indifferent evaluation of assignment-responses, (5) inordinate delay in the conduct of examinations and (6) publications of results. The best way to enhance the image of distance education is to improve the quality of self instructional materials. 10. Menon, L. 'Emancipation of Women'. University News, 27 (83) pp. 6-10. Education which is the surest means of emancipation is not available to large masses of women in our country, For a long time higher education was denied to women even when they were entitled to it legally. Today women belong to the handicapped section. Attitudinal change is needed in both men and women. The challenge of women emancipation can not be undertaken by small groups of women. It can only be achieved by women's 'organisations at the Grass roots level. The movement of emancipation can be realised only by women themselves with education and growing awareness. 11. Israney, S. H, "Status of women in the academic world." University News. 27 (23) pp. 11-14. Senior academic ranks and administrative posts should not be such demanding post as to force women to loss her humanity. Many able women are discouraged from making a move from faculty to administration. It is therefore surprising to know that so few women find their way to top faculty and administrative position. Society must broaden the options open to women. It should take the education opportunities of its women as seriously as it does in the case of its men. 12. Shastri, D. "Women's Universities or Universities for women. mission of women's institutions in higher education." University News, 27 (23) pp. 3-5. The fore most task that the women's Universities have to fulfil is to make coverage of higher education for women more wide. They have to make concious efforts to attract women from those classes and areas which are not yet touched by the liberating and influence of education. Women's Universities have a mission to fulfil.
