Production by Computer of Indexes to Digha-nikaya and Jataka

帕利文本协会（PTS，牛津）迄今已系统地出版了许多早期佛教的重要帕利经典文本，包括本生和迪迦-尼迦耶。然而，我们可以说，任何完整的词索引尚未产生几乎所有这些文本。即使对案文编制了一些索引，但它像往常一样非常不正确，包含许多错误。因此，许多学者都希望能有一套完整的佛教词汇索引，我们利用个人电脑开始编制佛教经典的词汇索引，并已于1997年由PTS出版了一份Digha-nikaya的词汇索引。关于本生本生索引的编制，我们已经完成了对前四卷至整六卷电子文本的校对工作。其余两卷可能在不久的将来编写。在对所有典籍进行查考之后，我们将能够为这部经典编制出一个非常庞大的词汇索引，并完成了以下的研究：（1）我们已经出版了1995年至1998年四部重要的佛教经典--《法》、《上座部》、《他们部》和《经》--的pada索引和反向pada索引。(2)这些书出版后，我们收到了许多请求，以便将这四个索引合并为一卷。因此，我们于2000年出版了由Kosei出版社出版的合并书。(3)1999年，我们还从中央学术研究所出版了五个重要的Jam经典文本的联合词和反词索引，Ayarafiga，Suyagada，Uttarajjhaya，Dasaveyaliya和Isibhasiyaim。(4)本文对《无量寿经》的梵语经文进行了统计分析。(5)这些结果中的一部分已上载到我们的万维网主页（URL：http：//www.sendai-ct.ac.jp/sendiousaka/）。

The Pali Text Society (PTS, Oxford) has systematically published many important Pali canonical texts in early Buddhism so far, including Jataka and Digha-nikaya. However, we could say that any complete word index have not yet been produced to almost all such texts. Even if some index was compiled to the text, it was, as usual, very incorrect and contained many errors. Thus many scholars have desired the complete word index for the study of the Buddhism.By using a personal computer we started to compile the word indexes to the Buddhist canonical texts, and have already published a word index to the Digha-nikaya in 1997 from PTS. With respect to compilation of the index to the Jataka, we have already finished checking errors in the electronic texts of the first four volumes to the whole six volumes. Remaining two volumes may be prepared in near future. After checking all texts, we will be able to produce the very large word index to this canon.Furthermore, we have accomplished the following studies : (1) We have already published a pada index and reverse pada index for four important Buddhist canons, the Dhammapada, the Thera-gatha, the Their-gatha and the Sutta-nipata from 1995 to 1998. (2) After the publication of these books we received many requests so as to merge these four indexes into one volume. Thus we have published the combined book from Kosei Publishing in 2000. (3) We have also published from The Chuo Academic Research Institute the combined word and reverse-word indexes to the five important Jam canonical texts, the Ayarafiga, Suyagada, Uttarajjhaya, Dasaveyaliya and Isibhasiyaim, in 1999. (4) We have studied on Statistical Analysis of Sanskrit Manuscripts of Saddharmapundarika.
