jyotiṣa (English spelling)

...This is how the strength of the planet's influence and the fortunes of the planets are judged. Hermetic Thought [Tadahiro Onuma] [Yoichiro Murakami]

From Bede

…In contrast, there is the Smṛti (sacred tradition), a group of texts that are said to have been written by the sages themselves. It includes various types of texts, but the Vedāṅga is particularly important as a text related to the Vedas.

【ベーダ】より

…これに対して,聖仙が自ら叙述したものとされる文献群として〈スムリティsmṛti(聖伝)〉があり,さまざまな種類の文献を含むが,〈ベーダ〉に関連したものとしてとくに重要であるのが〈ベーダーンガvedāṅga〉である。これは〈ベーダ〉文献の発達に伴い,その理解を助けるための補助学として成立したもので,(1)シクシャーśikṣā(音声学),(2)カルパ・スートラ(祭式学),(3)ビヤーカラナvyākaraṇa(文法学),(4)ニルクタnirukta(語源学),(5)チャンダスchandas(韻律学),(6)ジョーティシャjyotiṣa(天文学)の6部分より成るが,とくにカルパ・スートラは,バラモン教祭式の実際を知るうえできわめて重要である。 ベーダの成立年代は,古代インドの事がらの常として,これを確定することは不可能に近い。…
