gees in various parts of the country, from the northern regions to some parts in South India like the Mysore State, and then the requirement of the army personnel on the Tibetan borders to know the spoken Tibetan,--these and such other factors are contributing gradually to the closer association of a large number of the Tibetan working class with the Indians. As a consequence of this and to serve the new need of a more intimate knowledge of the Tibetan life and spoken language, Tibetan studies on modern lines are being initiated, unwritten Tibetan dialects are being reduced to writing in the tribal regions of the North-West Frontier, etc., and new terms and phrases for expressing the modern scientific and technological equipment and processes are being coined. Besides the old centres of Tibetan studies, new chairs for language and literature have been instituted in the Universities of Delhi, Banaras, Allahabad, Lucknow, and Gorakhpur among others, and instruction in Tibetan is being given in Schools of Foreign Languages at Delhi, Dalhousie, Pachmari, Khadak-Vasla near Poona, etc. Such are in brief the latest trends in the Tibetan studies in India.
We are aware of the excellent work done by scholars in Japan especially in the traditional Tibetan studies, some of which have become indispensable to any worker in Buddhist research and also in modern area-studies among the Tibetan population on the borderland of India. There has already been a certain amount of collaboration between the Japanese and the Indian scholars in research work on Tibetology, and an effort is being made at present to intensify this collaboration at the postgraduate level in the Tokyo University. I have no doubt, that the Japanese Association for Tibetan Studies will find it worthwhile encouraging and supporting such mutual cooperative in every possible way, because the scholars in both countries cannot but hold identical views regarding the scientific pursuit of knowledge concerning this important subject.
Thank you.
