| Popis | This article presents two Mongolian manuscripts from the Mongolian ritual manuscripts project (Masaryk University) representing two ritual genres rarely occurring among Mongolian texts: an offering text (Tib. mchod pa) related to the veneration of the mountain Dasibalbar in contemporary Khentei aimag (province) and the text for the “stability of life” (zhabs brtan, ölmei batudqaqu) of the newly recognized Fifth Jebtsundamba Khutuktu which was addressed to him before his arrival in Mongolia. Both texts were created around the time of the arrival of the Fifth Jebtsundamba Khutuktu (1815–1841) in Khalkha. The paper includes transcription and translation of the texts accompanied by commentaries about the genres they represent and circumstances of their composition. It raises questions about bilingualism and the role of the Mongolian language in Buddhist rituals. |
