The Science of Ritual
Frits Staal
On the occasion of the Diamond Jubilee of the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute, which was celebrated iii June 1978, Acharya V. P. Limaye donated to the Institute a fairly substantial amount of money to enable it to found a Lectureship in memory of his revered teacher in the Fergusson College, Poona, Professor Dr. Pandurang Damodar Gune. Accordingly, the Institute has undertaken to organize, once every two years, a series of lectures on a subject relating to Vedic studies, to be called “ Professor P. D. Gune Memorial Lectures “.
Professor Gune was born at Rahuri, District Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, on May 3, 1884. After a brilliant academic career, in the course of which he bagged most of the scholarships and prizes assigned for Sanskrit, Gune passed his M. A. examination with distinction in 1906. Soon thereafter, he joined the Deccan Education Society as a Life-Member and began to teach Sanskrit in the Society’s Fergusson College. In 1910, lie proceeded to Germany for higher studies and worked for nearly three years at the Leipzig University under the guidance of Professor Brugmann, specializing in comparative philology. He was awarded Ph. D. of that University in 1913. The seven years from 1913 to 1920 may be characterized as the years of distinguished achievement in Gune’s life. In addition to his normal work in the Fergusson College, where he soon established a well-deserved reputation as a successful teacher, Gune took the initiative in founding the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute in 1917 and became one of its first secretaries. He was also largely instrumental in bringing into being the All-India Oriental Conference, the first session of which was held at Poona in 1919. In 1917, Gune delivered
