Needs Help

Untitled

This article, like many of the other articles dealing with Hindu or Indian spirituality, seems to have been written under the assumption that most readers are already versed in this topic. In the English language Wikipedia, this is not a reasonable assumption. I went through this page and corrected several problems with punctuation and grammar, but I'm unqualified to address any of the other major problems.

For example, the second sentence states, "He is believed to have been born (or to have lived) in the beginning of the Kali Yuga." I turned the words "Kali Yuga" into a link (the author seems to have assumed that most people reading this article would know what the Kali Yuga was). I think it might be better to say something like, "He is believed to have been born (or to have lived) sometime in the 32nd century BC, at the beginning of the period known, in the Hindu calendar, as the Kali Yuga."

Would someone with more knowledge than I in these matters care to weigh in? --CKA3KA (Skazka) 01:35, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of any input, I've gone ahead and made the change I suggested above. I also turned several unfamiliar words into links. Most of those links lead to actual articles that help explain the terms. Some of the links are red, which, hopefully, will inspire others to add information. --CKA3KA (Skazka) 18:20, 4 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciated the issues presentd by CKA3KA. I will work on this and try to improve the content and method of presentation. Jbarot 16:45, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

It appears that the sentence mentioned by CKA3KA has been deleted. Also, the mention of the 3rd century BC as the composition of this text is without any explanation, and so appears to be without any basis. If the date of 3rd century BC is accepted, then it kind of throws away other things mentioned in this article, chief among them that Jaimini was the disciple of Veda Vyasa, who, as CKA3KA points out, is accepted by the Indian tradition to have lived around 3200-3100 BC timeframe. A date of 300-200 BC would make Jaimini a contemporary of Ashoka (if Ashoka's date be accepted as unchallenged).

Just as a matter of opinion, ascribing dates to Indian works/historical figures is not easy. Rather than state anything as fact, it would be better to just say that we are in a state of learned ignorance. --Ashish chandr70 (talk) 13:29, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Jaimini. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20070609165015/http://www.sub.uni-goettingen.de/ebene_1/fiindolo/gretil/1_sanskr/6_sastra/3_phil/mimamsa/jaimsutu.htm to http://www.sub.uni-goettingen.de/ebene_1/fiindolo/gretil/1_sanskr/6_sastra/3_phil/mimamsa/jaimsutu.htm

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.
