Ranjana alphabet
The Rañjanā script (syn: ''Kutila'', ''Lantsa''〔(Omniglot )〕) is an abugida writing system which developed in the 11th century.〔(Jwajalapa )〕 It is primarily used for writing the Newar language but is also used in Buddhist monasteries in India, China, Mongolia, and Japan.〔 It is normally written from left to right but the Kutakshar form is written from top to bottom.〔 It is also considered to be the standard Nepali calligraphic script.
==Development==
Rañjanā is a Brahmi script and shows similarities to the Devanagari script of North India and Nepal.〔 The script is also used in most of the Mahayana and Vajrayana monasteries.〔Folk tales from the Himalayan kingdom of Nepal: Black rice and other stories, p.47, Kesar Lall, Ratna Pustak Bhandar 〕 Along with the Prachalit Nepal alphabet, it is considered as one of the scripts of Nepal.〔(Nepalese Inscriptions in the Rubin Collection )〕 It is the formal script of Nepal duly registered in the United Nation while applying for the free Nation. Therefore, it is vital script to all Nepalese as well.
The ''Aṣṭasāhasrikā Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra'' lettered in gold ink by Bhiksu Ananda of Kapitanagar and dating back to the Nepal Sambat year 345 (1215 CE) is an early example of the script.〔(Nagarjuna Institute: Buddhist Sites of Nepal - Hiraynavarna Mahavihara )〕
