Introduction

THE ANTHOLOGY

Here I present Suvarna-mala to the public. It is an anthology of Sanskrit lyric poetry compiled by Rampratap Shastri. The poems collected here. cover a vast time-span of classical Sanskrit literature. The total number of the stanzas included here, is 1311. Most of the poems represent excellent poetry, lofty ideals. devotional expressions, and the philosophy of Vedanta.

I found three manuscript-diaries written by Rampratap himself in his personal library. One diary is dated 1929 A.D.. I presume that he began collecting these poems in 1915 A.D. or so and continued collecting till 1945 A.D. The manuscript is legible. It is written in black ink and letters are very beautiful.

I have myself translated the text in English and in Hindi together with exegetical notes. The translation in English and in Hindi will help the readers other than professional Sanskritists. While editing the text. I found that the Rampratap has frequently changed the authors' texts. The original readings are given in the notes. This changing in the text he has done mostly to enhance the poetic charm and sometimes to make the idea more clear.

It was an uphill task for me to trace the original texts. references and verify them with the text of the present anthology. Most of the poems of this anthology are new: new in the sense that they are not available in the so far known anthologies such as the Subhasitavali of Vallabhadeva and the Subhasıta - ratna kosa compiled by Vidyakara.

भूमिका

सुवर्णमाला

यहां मैं जनता के सामने 'सुवर्णमाला' नामक सुभाषित - संग्रह प्रस्तुत कर रहा हूं। यह संस्कृत काव्यों का संग्रह श्री रामप्रताप जी शास्त्री द्वारा चुना गया है। इस संग्रह के श्लोक लौकिक संस्कृत साहित्य के दीर्घ काल के विस्तार को प्रस्तुत करते हैं। संग्रह के श्लोकों की संख्या 1311 है। इस अद्भुत संग्रह के श्लोक उत्तम संस्कृत काव्य, उदात्त तथा आदर्श विचार, भक्ति की गहन अभिव्यक्ति तथा वेदान्त दर्शन का प्रतिनिधान करते हैं।

मुझे श्री रामप्रताप जी के व्यक्तिगत पुस्तकालय में उनके हाथ की लिखी हुई तीन पाण्डुलिपि डायरियां प्राप्त हुई थीं। एक डायरी 1929 ईसवी की है। मैं यह समझता हूं कि उन्होंने इन संस्कृत श्लोकों के संग्रह का आरम्भ 1915 ईसवी के आसपास किया था और 1945 ईसवी तक वे यह कार्य करते रहे। पाण्डुलिपि काली स्याही से लिखी हुई है। अक्षर विन्यास अत्यन्त सुन्दर तथा पठ्य है।

सुवर्णमाला का अंग्रेजी तथा हिन्दी भाषा में अनुवाद भी मैने स्वयं ही किया है। साथ ही उद्धरण तथा संक्षिप्त विवरण की टिप्पणियां भी अन्त में जुड़ी हैं। अंग्रेजी तथा हिन्दी अनुवाद उन सभी पाठकों के लिए लाभदायक सिद्ध होगा जो संस्कृत तथा संस्कृत से इतर विषयों व भाषाओं के विद्वान् हैं। सुवर्णमाला का संपादन करते हुए यह वोध मेरे मन में स्पष्ट हुआ कि श्री रामप्रताप जी ने इसका संग्रह करते हुए मूल ग्रन्थों के पाठ में जगह जगह परिवर्तन किए हैं।
