Pravacana is an ancient tradition, whose earliest mentions are found in the Vedic texts but one that is also found in post-Vedic Shastra and Sutra texts of Hindus and Jains.[1][2]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Table of ContentsBuddhism[edit]Hinduism[edit]Jainism[edit]Sources[edit]References[edit]Buddhism[edit]Pravacana refers to ninefold dhamma in Buddhist texts, and its recitation.[1] It was adopted from the Vedic tradition, and sometimes referred to as Pavachan.[3]Hinduism[edit]         (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4A Hindu pravacana in progress.Pravacana (Sanskrit: \u092a\u094d\u0930\u0935\u091a\u0928) refers to “exposition, expounding, reciting, orally explaining, speaking or talking” about a spiritual idea or doctrine or treatise in Hinduism, particularly eloquently or excellent expression.[1] The term is found with this sense of meaning in the Rigveda verses 10.35.8 and 4.36.1, in the sense of recitation of Vedic texts in the Yajurveda, in various Brahmanas, Gryhasutras, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, various sutras, as well as the Puranic literature such as the Bhagavata Purana.[1][2] The term typically refers to discourse, verbal discussion or a recital, but also refers to a textual genre of Indian literature that study a doctrine across texts, propound or synthesize ideas.[2][4] A speaker is called Pravacanakara.[1][2]According to Rangaswami, while pravacana is teaching or recital of scriptures, it can also refer to self-recital of a text.[5] The tradition has remained popular in contemporary times, but regionally spelled differently. For example, in Kerala, a pravacana is spelled pathakam, and generally refers to spiritual and moral-filled folklore recital such as Purana-pravacana, according to Raghavan.[6]Jainism[edit]  The word pravachan is widely used by Jains. In Jainism, the word \u015br\u0101vaka is used for the householders. The word has its roots in the word \u015br\u0101vana, i.e. the one who listens (the discourses of the saints).[7]The pravachan by Jain saints could be on Jain principles or Jain scriptures (Shastra Pravachan).[8][9]During the four-month rainy-season period, when the mendicants must stay in one place, the chief sadhu of every group gives a daily sermon (pravacana, vyakhyana), attended mostly by women and older, retired men, but on special days by most of the lay congregation. During their eight months of travel, the sadhus give sermons whenever requested, most often when they come to a new village or town in their travels.Some Jain texts use the term Pravacana in their title, such as the Pravacana-sara by Kunda-kunda.[11]Sources[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d e f Monier Monier Williams, Sanskrit English Dictionary with Etymology, Oxford University Press, page 690^ a b c d Jan Gonda (1977).
