ऋषि पूर्ण काश्यप :
पूर्ण काश्यप वर्द्धमान महाबीर के समकालीन ऋषि थे। राजा अजातशत्रु को मिलने गए छः महापुरूषों में से महाबीर के साथ एक पूर्ण काश्यप थे। जिन का उल्लेख जैन धर्मग्रन्थों में है। जैन साहित्य में उन्हें “पूरन कास्सप” नाम दिया है। वर्द्धमान महावीर भी काश्यप थे। बौद्ध धर्म में पूर्ण कश्यप को नास्तिक दार्शनिक, संघ आचार्य, तीर्थंकर, अनुभवी विचारक, या नवीन मत का संस्थापक आदि माना गया है। ‘समांजफला सुत्त’ में अजातशत्रु और बुद्ध के बीच संवाद का उल्लेख है, जिसमें अध्यात्मवाद को भौतिकवादी विचारधारा से श्रेष्ठ माना गया है। बौद्ध धर्म के अनुसार जो कोई नास्तिकता में विश्वास करता है, वह अनिवार्य रूप से एक विकासवादी था। उस समय के नास्तिक वास्तव में प्रकृति के साथ संतुलन में रहने के अभ्यासी थे। जिनके पास जटिल रीति-रिवाजों और परंपराओं में खुद को उलझाने का समय नहीं था। जो स्वप्न और संकल्प के बीच की दूरी को कम करने का कौशल जानते थे। ब्राह्मण उन्हें धार्मिक शिक्षा के अयोग्य समझते थे। पूर्ण कशप के अलावा मक्खली गोसल, अजित केशकंबली, पुकुद कात्यायन, संजय वेल्थिपुत्त आदि उस समय के प्रमुख नास्तिक विचारकों में से थे। बौद्ध और ब्राह्मणवादी पुजारियों के अलावा, उन्हें जैन धर्म के विचारकों द्वारा भी निशाना बनाया गया था। इसे उस समय के भौतिकवादी चिंतन की विडम्बना ही कहा जा सकता है कि अपने समय की एक महत्वपूर्ण विचारधारा होते हुए भी इस ऋषि द्वारा प्रदत्त उस परंपरा का कोई स्वतंत्र ग्रन्थ उपलब्ध नहीं है।
कश्यप के साथ जुड़ा हुआ ‘पूर्ण’ उपसर्ग उनके ज्ञान की समग्रता का सूचक है। ‘दिघनिकाय’ के ‘समांजफल सुत्त’ के अनुसार मगध सम्राट अजातशत्रु ने गौतम बुद्ध से पूर्ण कश्यप के विचारों की चर्चा की।

English Translation
Rishi Purna Kashyap:
Purna Kashyapa Vardhamana was a contemporary sage of Mahabir. Among the six great men who went to meet King Ajatashatru, Mahabir was accompanied by Purna Kashyapa. This is also mentioned in Jain scriptures. In Jain literature he is named as “Puran Kassap”. Vardhman Mahavir also belonged to Kashyap gotra. In Buddhism, Purna Kashyap has been considered as an atheist philosopher, Sangha Acharya, Tirthankar, experienced thinker, or founder of the new school etc. The ‘Samanjaphala Sutta’ refers to a dialogue between Ajatashatru and the Buddha, in which spiritualism is considered superior to materialistic ideology. According to Buddhism anyone who believed in atheism, was essentially an evolutionist. The atheists of that time were actually practitioners of living in balance with nature. who had no time to entangle themselves, in complicated customs and traditions of those days. Those eho knew the skill of reducing the distance between dream and resolution.
Brahmins considered such people, unfit for religious education. Apart from Purna Kashap, Makkhali Gosala, Ajit Keshakambali, Pukud Katyayan, Sanjaya Welthi putta etc. were among the prominent atheist thinkers of that time. Apart from Buddhist and Brahmanical priests, he was also targeted by ideologues of Jainism. It can be called the irony of materialistic thinking of that time that despite being an important ideology of its time, there is no independent text of the traditions, provided by this sage.
The prefix ‘Purna’ associated with Kashyapa is indicative of the totality of his knowledge. According to the ‘Samanjaphal Sutta’ of ‘Dighnikaya’, the Magadha emperor Ajatashatru discussed the ideas of Purna Kashyapa with Gautama Buddha.
Buddhist monks of the Kashyapa sect are mentioned in an inscription on a stone urn made of Buddha, (made of stone) from the time of the Saka ruler Bhagmoya, near Bajaur (ancient Avajpur) in Afghanistan, named Apach or Avaj.
