A Comprehensive Study of the Sramana Concept; its origin and development -- a comparative study of Buddhism and Jainism--

古印度的宗教修行者属于婆罗门教或斯拉玛纳派。尽管已经出现了许多关于婆罗门教的研究。撒拉曼文化几乎没有被调查过。我也是。在那里，人们可能研究佛教，但很少有人研究斋戒。对萨曼文化的研究是不可或缺的，否则就不能全面了解印度人的思想。今年，我们收集了研究项目所需的书籍，并组织了几次关于斋戒教起源和发展的研究会。在这些会议期间，研究成员报告了他对斋戒典籍文学的语言和哲学的研究。合作研究主题涉及萨满教文化的背景，或对其文化的文化史方法，对佛教和斋戒教进行比较研究，调查这些宗教的共同或不同之处，并调查萨满教思想的独特特征。我们还在研究它对印度艺术和其他印度哲学体系的影响。因此，我们经常申请文化部的出版补助金，以便出版我们的研究成果。

The religious practitioners in Old India belonged to the brahmanas or sramanas. Though many studies have appeared on the brahmanas. sramanic culture has hardly been investigated. Likewise. there one may studies on Buddhism but hardly any on Jainism. Research on sramanic culture is indispensable or getting an entire picture of Indian thought. This year we have collected the books necessary for our research project, and organazed several research meetings on the origin and development of Jainism. During these meetings earch member reports on his research on the language and philosophy of Jaina Canonical literature. Co-operative research themes deal on the background of sramanic culture, or cultural historical approach to their culture a comparative study of Buddhism and Jainism investigating the characteristies which these religions have in common or in which they differ, and an investigation of the unique features of sramanic thought. We are also working on its influence on Indian Art and on other Indian philosophical systems. Therefore, we ofer to apply for Ministry of Culture's Publication Grant in order to publish the result of our research.
