| Research Abstract |
This research explains some aspects of Indian Tantric Funeral in the following four ways:(1) A critical edition and annotated Japanese translation of Sunyasamadhivajra's Mrtasugatiniyojana, which prescribes the procedure of Indian Tantric Buddhist funeral, have been made. Based upon the Mrtasugatiniyojana and some other related primary materials, the contents of the Indian Tantric Buddhist funeral have been examined. (2) Some of Saiva and Vedic texts teaching the funeral have also been examined. The relationship between Tantric Buddhism and Saivsim has partly been explained through the comparison of the funerals of these two religions. (3) The ideas and the doctrines behind the Tantric Buddhist funeral have been examined.
