| English | The title is given first in Sanskrit. In the noble land of India, there were four great canonical languages.42skad rigs chen po mi ’dra ba bzhi. According to tradition, there were three hundred and forty languages in Ancient India. Four of these were canonical (in the sense that sutras and shastras were composed in them): Sanskrit (legs sbyar), Prakrit (rang bzhin), Apabhramsha (zur chag), and Pishachi (sha za). Of these, Sanskrit was considered the most important. See KCG, Kretschmar, chap. 1, p. 329. Of these, the title Bodhisattvacharyavatara is given in Sanskrit, the "well-constructed tongue,” the language of the gods. This is translated into the best Tibetan,43I.e., the language of the central provinces of Ü and Tsang. which is easy to understand, as byang chub sems dpa’i spyod pa la ’jug pa (An Entrance to the Activities of Bodhisattvas). The word-forword rendering is as follows: bodhi / byang chub / enlightenment; sattva / sems dpa’ / heroic being;44The standard Sanskrit term for a being who is progressing toward buddhahood is bodhisattva, lit. "enlightenment being.” See A. A. Macdonell, Sanskrit Dictionary (1929), p. 198. It should be noticed, however, that the Tibetan term (byang chub sems dpa’) is apparently a translation not of bodhisattva, but bodhisatva, where sattva (being) is replaced by satva(n) (warrior). See Macdonell, p. 331, and Kretschmar, chap. 1, p. 12, n. 69. charya / spyod pa/ activities; avatara / ’jug pa / entrance. |
