[Buddha-l] FW: [INDOLOGY] Fwd: Seeking Devanagari-Sanskrit research assistant

[Jo]

Here’s a call for some Sanskrit-literate person on the list. Paid work, too.

And you are working for an artist instead of you know who.

Dear Indology,

 

I'm seeking a research assistant to hire to help find texts written in Devanagari-Sanskrit. I'm hoping you can direct me to someone who may be willing to help, or provide a suggestion of how I might find someone. 

 

These are the texts:

1. Dharmacakra Pravartana Sūtra, Saṃyukta Āgama edition

2. Chandogya-Upanisad, chapter 7.26.2

 

In addition to these, I'm looking for texts that are examples of non-Buddhist antecedents to the Buddhist concepts of Kleśā and The Four Noble Truths.

 

This research would be paid for, and informs the creation of a piece of artwork in respect to these topics.

 

Finding these texts has been a considerable struggle for me over the past many months, and any leads you can provide would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Best regards,

Mike LaVigne
