<em>‘Hṛdaya-dhāraṇī of Mothers’</em> (Oir. <em>ekeyin zürken tarni orošiboi</em>): an Oirat manuscript from the National Museum of Tuva
Abstrak
The article introduces into scientific discourse the text of the Oirat manuscript ‘Ekeyin zürken tarni orošiboi’ (‘Hṛdaya-dhāraṇī of Mothers’). The text is stored in the collection of the National Museum of the Tyva Republic under inventory number M-835. Analysis of Mongolian and Oirat written monuments is urgent for the investigation of the history of spiritual culture of Mongolian peoples, as well as Turkic peoples that lived in the same cultural area. The article is a scholarly publication reflecting the historical and ethnocultural contacts between the Oirat-Mongols and Tuvans. Undoubtedly, one of the key unification factors for these nations is Buddhism. The paper provides a brief analysis of the contents of this manuscript that includes several short dhāraṇī-texts from the gZungs ‘dus collection of ritual texts. The article also provides a transliteration of the Oirat manuscript supplemented with a Russian parallel translation.
