Abstract:
Introduction:Due to the dhom zasal is Mongolian’s root medicine, it contains rich of nomadic historical knowdledge
regarding traditional medicine. Although during the recent years, studies regarding scripts of dhom
zasal have been conducting frequently and collecting and saving several number of dhom scriptures,
there is lack of studies regarding their content. Therefore, we decided to conduct the current study to
identify causes, conditions and evidences related to historical development of dhom zasal.
Goal:We aimed to integrate and compare more than 20 studies in a range of title “Study regarding Script of traditional Mongolian medicine and its ingredients in Sutra of Black Dhom”
Method:We conducted the study by using manuscripts, primary source methods, checklist method, historical comparative method and analysis synthesis method. We have used following materials khukh khutsiin uvdis orshvoi, sutras of dhom, dhom related research papers, and books. We took a permission to conduct the current study from the National University of Inner Mongolia and the study subject and methods were confirmed. Due to the study was conducted by historical source method, in each and every citation we took from scripts, we put the author’s name to not infringe any copyright.
Results:Within in the study, we reviewed more than 20 Sutra of Dhom and from all the sutras, the sutra titled “khukh khutsiin uvdis orshvoi” attracted our attention inconsiderably due to the decree of Great Chinggis khan dedicated to Chaghatai khan was included in the script. Furthermore, the script was written in Mongolian script and it was studied not thoroughly as well as contains a wide range of information. The decree in the sutra of Dhom is the historical, rare record which contains novel information related to traditional Mongolian medicine history. Although the exact issue date of decree is still unknown, while thinking back about the state status when the decree issued, it was assumed that could be issued during the time between 1226-1227 years. During this time, many of Sartuul nationalities, civilizations was highly developed and many therapists were working and Medicine was well developed in that time. Moreover, Chaghatai khan was introduced as a khan for a period of time, due to that he could aware of culture, and achievements of medicine of his country. Due to that the Great Chinggis khan could have sent a decree to Chaghatai khan to find an effective treatment method. But there was lack information regarding who got which disease and what medicine was needed. Therefore, they assumed that disease have occurred among soldiers who are the most significant part of guarding the state and sent therapeutic Dhoms according to most prevalent disease among soldiers.
Conclusion:We translated whole of sutra titled “Khukh khutsiin uvdis orshvoi” as an example due to the sutra contains wide range of information and was written in Mongolian script. Also, the decree of Great Chinggis khan was included in the sutra. Due to the reasons above, we have chosen the sutra from many others. Furthermore, we made an explanation regarding some of complicated words and dhoms were classified according to their dedicated disorders. - Full text:2020-193(3)-74-78.pdf
