Brahma Samāj

Japanese: ブラフマ・サマージ(英語表記)Brāhma Samāj
Brahma Samāj
The religious group that played the most important role in the religious and social reform movement in modern India. The founding of the Brahma Samaj is generally considered to have occurred when RM Roy founded the Brahma Sabha in Calcutta in 1828. The Brahma Sabha, which worshipped one, intangible and omnipresent God, rejected idolatry and advocated universal faith, saw its activities decline after Roy moved to England (late 1830), but was revived in 1843 when Devendranāth Tagore (1817-1905) led a group of 20 young men through an initiation ceremony.

近代インドの宗教・社会改革運動に最も重要な役割を果たした宗教団体。1828年R.M.ローイがカルカッタにブラフマ・サバーを結成した時点をもって,ブラフマ・サマージの創設とみなすのが通説である。唯一・無形・遍在の神を礼拝し,偶像崇拝を排し,普遍的信仰を標榜するブラフマ・サバーの活動は,ローイの渡英(1830年末)以降振るわず,43年タゴールDevendranāth Tagore(1817‐1905)が20名の青年を率いて入門儀礼を受けることによって復活した。
