Khyung-sprul’s Chronology

Bon Chronology by Khyung-sprul, Dated 1924.

Version:  Nov. 10, 1997

Has been proofread against the Tibetan text once.

Input by Dan Martin, Jerusalem

This item corresponds to entry no 436 in Tibetan Histories, Serindia (London 1997).

Source:  Khyung-sprul ’Jigs-med-nam-mkha’i-rdo-rje (1897-1956), Dpyad Gsum Dag Rtsis Bskal Srid Dus-kyi ’Khor-lo-las:  Zhag Gsum Rtsis Gzhung Nam-mkha’i Gter-mdzod, contained in:  Khyung-sprul ’Jigs-med-nam-mkha’i-rdo-rje on Calendrical Calculations and Astrology, Tenzin Namdak (Dolanji 1972), vol. 1, pp. 54-71.  As Per Kværne has noted, this was composed in 1924 (shing byi), but nevertheless contains some dated entries up to the year 1936.  A chronology of Bon history.  Ref.:  P. Kværne, “Chronological Tables (bstan-rcis) of the Bon Religion,” contained in:  A. Wezler, et al., eds., Proceedings of the XXXII International Congress for Asian and North African Studies, Franz Steiner Verlag (Stuttgart 1992).

Note:  This chronology is full of words that stand in place of numbers, and the 'numeric' words are in "reverse" order.  Example:  ri ro zla ba.  Ri ('mountain') = 7, ro ('flavor') = 6, and zla ba ('moon') = 1.  The entire number therefore is to be read as 167.  This text uses quite a number of words to express the notion of 'subtraction' (zhu, phri, dman, sbyang, etc.). 

The numbers given here in curved brackets { } are found in the text, generally directly above the verb if this is possible, with bracket-shaped arches over them.  These numbers generally express the number of years separating the particular event from the 1924 date of composition of the chronology.  The numbers of years to be subtracted (and all other numbers not marked by the arch) are given in square brackets [ ].  The Arabic page numbers of the reprint publication (our Mother Copy) are also given in square brackets, but in order to distinguish them they are preceded by an asterisk [* ].

Note:  Khyung-sprul calculates Lord Shenrab's birth as being 17,940 years before the 1924 CE year of composition, which places his birth in a date corresponding to 16,015 BCE.  He accepts that Mu-zi had an 800 year period of suspended animation.  He places Gshen-chen's excavations in the year 1017 CE, and his death in 1035 CE.  Kun-grol-grags-pa is born in 1700 CE.

Although not especially relevant here, we would still like to note that a Bstan rtsis type of text is embedded in the biography of Mkhan-chen Nyi-ma as found in 3rd edition of Bon Kanjur, vol. 90, p. 356 ff.  This includes Phyi-dar chronology following the Terma excavations of Gshen-chen Klu-dga', as well as some Chos historical events.  It is quite long and detailed, and may or may not correspond in content to the chronology by this author published by Per Kvaerne; this requires study.
