释义 |
The Bhagavat of Sankardev is the Assamese adaptation of the Bhagavata Purana made by Srimanta Sankardev in 15th-16th century in the regions that form present-day Assam and Cooch Behar. Though the major portions of the work was transcreated by Sankardev, a few other writers from that period contributed to the remaining sections. This book is revered and forms the central religious text for the followers of Sankardev (Ekasarana Dharma). The text is not a literal translation from the original Sanskrit into the vernacular but it is an adaptation to the local milieu in language and content. Sankardev's transcreationSrimanta Sankardev transcreated the different sections of the original Bhagavata Purana at different times of his life. They are:[1] In the Bara Bhuyan territory
In the Koch kingdom
From among these sections, Book X, locally called the daxama, is particularly popular among the Mahapuruxiya dharma works, next only to kirtan ghoxa.[6] Sankardev's translations of Book IX are believed to be lost. The other transcreators are:
Differences from the originalThe original, which was written in Sanskrit was rendered into Assamese words and idioms of the time by Sankardev, but it was not a verbatim translation. He intentionally left out some sections and summarized or elaborated others, to fit the situation in Assam. He replaced the name of the tribes and flowers by those found in Assam, for instance, thus specifically targeting the local populace. More significantly, whereas the original looks down upon the shudra and kaivarta castes (Bhagatava 12/3/25), Sankardev extols them, envisaging a radically different social order not based on the traditional varna system. Some of the more abstruse philosophical parts were summarized and rendered so that the common people in Assam could understand them.[7] Notes1. ^{{Harv|Barman|1999|p=121}} 2. ^{{harv|Neog|1980|pp=181–182}} 3. ^{{harv|Neog|1980|p=187}} 4. ^{{harv|Neog|1980|p=186}} 5. ^{{harv|Neog|1980|p=188}} 6. ^{{harv|Barman|1992|p=122}} 7. ^{{Harv|Barman|1999|p=121}} References{{refbegin}}
