| Summary: | In last year’s Bulletin, Jean-Noël Robert presented a theoretical analysis of the relationship between sacred and traditional languages on the one hand and religious languages dependent on them for expressing the higher truths of religion. He argued there for a multidisciplinary study of the question, and hinted that he was pursuing a concrete example within Buddhist literature. In this essay he carries the project further another step. We reproduce the article here not only for its intrinsic interest, but also because it relates to the ongoing dialogue on “Science–kokoro–religion” being carried out at the Nanzan Institute and reported on elsewhere in this Bulletin. |
