AYARANGA-AND DASAVEYALIYA-SUTTAS Collette Caillat One of the major vows taken by the ascetics of ancient India, whether Brahmanic, Buddhist or Jaina, is "not to make any untrue statement!." In fact, this prescription applies to each and every individual, for (as is well known), speech is assumed to exert extremely potent forces. It is therefore quite natural that the Sastras lay down rules about what is or is not to be said, and where, when, how it should be uttered, not only on solemn occasions, but also in daily life. Such prescriptions are specified in the Scriptures of the Buddhists and the Jainas 1. For a general survey and appraisal, H. JACOBI, SBE 22 (London. 1884, repr. Delhi, 1964), Introduction, p. XXII ff. 2. For general considerations on "oral rites", M. MAUSS, Theorie de la magie, reprinted in Sociologie et anthropologie, Paris, 1950, p. 48 ff.--As far as India is concerned, L.

The topic is investigated from different angles in various parts of Viyahapannatti, V yakhya-prajnapti, and systematically treated in the eleventh chapter, called "bhasa-paya", of the Pannavana--a precious survey of which we owe to Pandit Daisukh Malvania. Moreover, the first Anga and the second Mulasutra of the canor deal with bhasa from the point of view of discipline, in their famous chapters which I propose to consider here; they are Ayar (anga-sutta) 2.4.1-2 (in prose), Dasaveyaliya-sutta 7 (in verses) 3. I shall not examine the interconnexions between both, they have been studied by Dr. Ghatage in NIA 1.2 (may 1938, p. 130-137)*. I only wish to show that a comparison between these developments and their old Brahmanic counterparts5 help to realize how the Jainas have succeeded in .1 References to canonical developments concerning bhasa in W.

I had the good fortune to read this chapter with Pandit Dalsukh Malvania: I wish to seize this opportunity to express my affectionate gratitude to him, his family and circle of friends. The Jaina (and Buddhist) statements concerning addhama gaha bhasa (magaha-bhasa, mula-bhasa), etc., will not be taken into consideration, as they would be irrelevant from the present point of view. 3. As noted by Schubring, the odd chapters of Dasav are concerned with special subjects (Dasav, Introduction, p. VI); in particular, different aspects of (right) conduct are examined therein. "Parallel passages in the Dasavaikalika and the Acaranga"; A. M. . Ghatage's conclusion is that Dasav 7 is older than Ayar 2.4. Schubring's opinion, on the contrary, is that "Dasav is later than Ayar. If in its slokas it contains such padas as scattered in the prose of Ayar/./ the latter represent an ancient stock....", Doctrine SS 74 n. 2. 5. On the comparative antiquity of Gaut DhS, etc., and of Buddhist-Jaina canonical scriptures, JACOBI, loc. cit., p. XXX ff, Page #328 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Rules Concerning Speech (Bhasa) in the Ayaranga binding into an organic unity prescriptions which are also found, but more or less scattered, in different sections of the Dhs, and which have been somewhat differe. ntly elaborated in the Pali scriptures. In fact, as is natural, the Jainas' ethical teachings in this field are linked with their metaphysical tenets. Let me first sketch how the DhS approach the subject. Sometimes--exceptionally--the approach is a general one; e. g., when ApDhS introduces the chapters on penance, it explains that "A wise man who has eradi. cated the (faults) which destroy creatures, obtains salvation"1. "(These are) anger exultation, grumbling, covetousness, perplexity, doing injury, hypocrisy, lying, gluttony, calumny, envy, lust, secret hatred, neglect to keep the senses in subjection, neglect to concentrate the mind...",krodho harso roso lobho moho dambho droho mrsodyainatyasa-parivadavisaya kama-manyu anatmyam @yogas, tesam yoga-mulo nirghatah (ApDhS 1.8.23.5) On the contrary, "freedom from anger (akrodha-)...., truthfulness (satyavacana-)..., silencing slander (2-paio una-) uprightness, affability (arjava-mardava-)...., peace with all created beings, concentration (of the mind on the contemplation of the Atman), regulation of one's conduct according to that of the Aryas (aryava-) - these (good qualities) have been settled by the agreement (of the wise) for all (the four) orders...."? Similar precepts are also ordained by Manu, who applies them to the snataka : . satyadharmaryavrattesu fauce caivarametsada vag-bahudara-samyatah, "Let him always delight in truthfulness,...; let him keep his speech, his arms and his belly under control" (Mn 4.175). As a matter of fact, Manu is in accordance with Gautama who, among the duties of the Snataka (ch. 9). prescribes : He shall keep his organ, his stomach, his hands, his feet, his tongue, and his eyes under due restraint"4, further : satya-dharma (68), arya-vrttah (69... syat (72), "He shall always speak the truth." "He shall conduct himself (as becomes) an Aryan." 1. nirhytya bhuta dahiyan ksemam gacchati panditah, (trsl. Buhler). 2. Ib 6. Cf. also 1.11.31.25 (trsl., SBE 1.11.31.23) : krodhadimsca bhuta-dahiyan dosan varjayet, "and let him (the snataka) avoid the faults that destroy the creatures, such as anger and the like." 3. Buhler translates : "in truthfulness, (obedience to the sacred law *"; but cf. Gaut DhS, 9.68, infra. 4. na Sifnodara-pani-pada-vak-caksus capalani kuryat. Page #329 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Collette Caillat Thus, rules regarding speech are, in fact, but the application to a particular case of general injuctions to keep one's organs (organs of sense, organs of action and manas) under complete control (cf. Mn 2.88) the organ of speech being the tenth in the list. Therefore, it would seem normal that, in the Dhs, general instructions should be given about the proper use of Vac. Nevertheless, most of the time, in the texts, the rules are laid down for specific categories of individuals : the householder, or, more often, the brahmacarin, the student who has returned home, the snataka... Now, what are these rules ? Two sets can be distinguished : (1) the rules connected with salutation; (2) the rules which might be termed apotropaic, whether the danger is visible or occult. (1) It is well known that "reverential salutation" is looked upon as strengthening vardhana.2 Conversely, as stressed in a floating stanza, "he who habitually salutes and constantly pays........ reverence to the aged obtains an increase of four (things), (namely) glory, length of life, fame, (and) strength". 3 abhivada-filasya nityam urddhopasevinah catvari sampravardhante, kirtir ayur yato bulam (Mbh. 5.39.60). The same view is expressed among the Buddhists. 4 With minor variants, Mn (2.121) applies the maxim to the brahm acarin : catvari tasya vardhante, ayuh prajnu yaso balam. As a matter of fact, in the Dhs, much importance is attached to terms of address and to saluting -a topic to which the sixth chapter of the Gaut DhS is 1. vak caiva dasami smrta, Mn 2. 90 d. - Compare Asoka, Rock Edict XII (C), recommending vaca- (vaci-) gutti and, infra, Uttarajjhayana 24. 22-23. 2. J. Gonda, IIJ 8 (1964), p. 14, quoting RV 6.51.8. 3. For concordances, L. Sternbach, Maha-subhasita-samgraha 2, Hoshiarpur 1976 (Vishveshvaranand Vedic Research Institute, V. Indological Series 69, no 2336, compare 2337-8). Trsl. following Buhler, Mn 2.121. 4. abhivadana-silissa niccam vaddhapacayino cattaro dhamma vaddhanti : ayu vanno sukham balam, Dhp 109, of which the Gandhari Dharmapada rendering is : ahivadana-filisa nica dridhavayarino catvari tasa vardhadi ayo kirta suha bala (ed. J. Brough, London ...., 1962, London Oriental Series, 7), 172. 5. Cf-Kane, History of Dharmasastra, 2.1, p. 333 ff., specially 336 ff., ubi alia. Page #330 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Rules Concerning Speech (Bhasa) in the Syaranga wholly devoted. Actually, most Dhs give details on proper behaviour in this connexion, whether regarding the time and circumstances, the gestures, the words, intonation syntax......... Generally, though, saluting is not treated as an independent subject; Mn, for instance, includes the topic in the chapter dealing with studentship, where it is specified which words the young man must use according to the age, sex, learning, social status.... of the person whom he addresses (2.121129), and according to circumstances (2.49). Similarly, ApDhS inserts this special, subject in one of the chapters about the general obligations of the Vedic student (1.2.5.15 ff.), his behaviour while begging (1.1.3.28.30, cf; Gaut DhS 2.36), or, again, the conduct of the student who has returned home (1.4.14.7 ff., particularly 1.4. 14. 26-31).... Thus, the matter is considered separately in several developments, where it is discussed with more or less detail : (2) The same remark would apply to the second set of rules, those which I proposed to term apotropaic. They seem to be given mainly for the snataka; and to remain comparatively unchanged. Before stressing that the snataka should abide by truth, satyadharma ....syat (9.61, supra), Gautama considers several utterances which are to be avoided. The same warnings recur in other Dhs, especially in ApDhs, the sutras of which can be conveniently examined (1.11.31. 5-16): 5. And he shall not speak evil of the gods or of the king, (parus am cobhayotdevatanam rajnasca .... varjayet), 8. He shall not mention the blemishes of a cow, of sacrificial presents, or of a girl. 9. And he shall not announce it .... if a cow does damage (by eating corn or grain in a field). 10. (Nor shall he call attention to it) if a cow is together with her calf.... 11-12. And of a cow which is not a milch-cow he shall not say 'She is not a milch-cow'. He must say "This is a cow which will become a milch-cow'. (nadhenum adhenur iti brayat, dhenu-bhavyetyeva bruyat), 16. If he sees a rainbow, he must not say to others, 'Here is Indra's bow'. ? 1. For proper words, ApDhS 1.4.14.26-29; pluti of final vowel, ib 1.2.5.17, Vas 13.46, Mn 2.125, Pan 8.2.83, quoted in Kane, ib, p. 340; syntax, GautDhS 2.36, ApDhS 1.1.3 28-30, Mn 2.69. 2. gor daksinanam kumaryas ca parivadan varjayet (8) stthantom ca gam nacaksita (9) samspstam ca vatsenanimitte (10) nendradhanur iti parasmai prabrayat (18) For Private & Personal'Use Only Page #331 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 6 Collette Caillat Similarly, GautDhS 9.22 remarks: "...in speaking of) a rainbow (he shall use the word) magi-dhanus (the jewelled bow) instead of Indra-dhanus' "-a pres cription which is in agreement with BaudhDhS 2.3.6. 11-12, and VasDhS 12.32. The prohibitions and injunctions detailed above are likewise given in the other DhS. The implied justification can be deduced from the following observation, by ApDhS: nasau 'me sapatna' iti brayat; pady 'asau me sapatna' iti bruyad dvisantam bhratroyam janayet, "In company) he shall not say, 'This person is my enemy'. If he says 'This person is my enemy', he will raise for himself an enemy, who will show his hatred" ApDhS 1.11.31.15). Now, these remarks are made in a khanda which warns against dangerous words and acts, and points to those which are conducive to welfare (1.11.31.6; 14, etc.); similarly, khanda 32 dissuades from visits to countries inhabited by inferior men, from mixing in assemblies and crowds (1.11.32. 18-19); it also advises the snataka not "to cross a river swimming" and not to use "ships of doubtful (solidity)" (26-27). To revert to speech: we can include in this review a rule laid down for both the snataka and the householder, who are advised not to "talk of a doubtful matter as if it were clear" (2.5.12.21, cf. 1.11.32.22). This last recommendation leads us back to the observance of truthfulness, which should not be interpreted as an encouragement to use cruel words. On the contrary, Manu stresses: hinanganatiriktanganvidya-hinanvayo-'dhikan rupa-dravina-hinanica jati-hinalca naksipet, 1. mayidhanur itindradhanuh. 2. Compare, a little differently, Mn 4.59.

As a matter of fact, avoiding lies and avoiding harshness are both combined in the fourfold prescription emphasized by Mn (4.138): satyam bruyat, priyam brupanna bruyatsatyamapriyam, priyam ca nanrtam brayad efa dharmah sanitanah, "Let him (the snataka) say what is true, let him say what is pleasing, let him utter no disagreable truth, and let him utter no pleasant falsehood; that is the eternal law" a Parallels for this aphorism are quoted from Visau- and Yajaavalkya-Dhs, from the epics.... More could be adduced from Buddhist and Jaina scriptures. Let us now turn to the Jainas. 7 First of all, one fact is remarkable: that two old canonical texts each devote one whole chapter completely to the examination of the different species of bhasa ("bhasa-jaya"), and to right conduct with regard to speech. This proves the very great importance attached to the subject by the Jaina teachers, and by the Jaina. tradition. No less remarkable is the endeavour of Ayar and Dasav to explain what their guiding principles are; they can be summarized as follows: on the one hand, it is imperative to respect truth-an effort which involves the constant observance. of self-control, samyama- (Amg samjama); on the other hand, it is necessary to bine respect for truth with respect for ahimsa. Such is the complex behaviour advo 1.

To help attain this ideal aim, bhasa is analysed into four species (with subdivisions): two of them are absolutely condemned and prohibited, because they are either totally or partly wrong and false; as for the other two, the monk should be educated to use them with discrimination : Dasay 7.1 proclaims : caunham khalu bhasanam parisamkhaya pannavam donham tu pinayam sikkhe, do na bhasejja savvasos. Ayar also distinguishes four bhasa.jaya, somewhat emphatically: bhikkhu janejja cattari bhasa-jayaim, tam-jaha : saccam egam padhamam bhasa-jajam blyam mosam taiyain, sccca-mosam, jam n'eva saccam n'eva mosam n'eva saccamosam asaccamosam tam cauttham bhasa-jayam, se bemi.... (2.4.1.4). Thus the bhikkhu is invited, trained to recognize: (1) truth, (2) untruth, (3) truth mixed with untruth, (4) "what is neither truth, nor untruth, nor truth mixed with untruth ...."4. Consequently, Dasav 7 immediately 1. se bhikkha va bhikkhuni va vanta koham ca manam ca mayam ca loham ca, anuvii nitthabhasi nisamma-bhasi aturiya-bhasi vivega-bhasi samiyae samjae bhasam bhasejja. "a monk or a nun, putting aside wrath, pride, deceit, and greed, considering well, speaking with precision, what one has heard, not too quick, with discrimination, should employ language in moderation and res. traint", (Ayar 2.4.2.19 tis!, Jacobi). 2. Compare Dasay 7. 54-57 : chasu samjae, samanie saya jae, vacija buddhe hiyam anulomiyam, "controlled (in his conduct) towards the six (groups of souls), (and) always restrained in monkhood the wise one shall speak good (and) kind (words)" (56 c-d, trsl. W. Schubring). "Of the four kinds of speech, the thoughtful (monk) should, after consideration, learn the training in two, (but) should not use the other two ones at any occasion." Cf. Viyahapannatti, ch. 13, Ed Suttagame, Gurgaon, 1953. vol. 1, 692, 15; Pannavana, ed. Punyavijaya, etc. (Jaina-Agama-Series 9.1), p. 215, $$ 870-876; Thananga ch. 4.1, ed.

See the same fourfold division "truth, untruth, ...." in relation with the first and second guttis (gupti -- : mana-gutti, vai.g.), in Uttarajjhaya 24. 20-23 (ed. J. Charpentier, Upsala, 1921, Archives d'Etudes orientales, 18), i.e. in the chapter concerning the eight pavayana-maya ("matrices of the Doctrine"). Here, the analysis of the three guttis follows that of the five samitis : the second of these is the bhasa-samiti, "care in speaking" 3. 4. Page #334 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Rules Concerning Speech (Bhasa) in the Ayaranga proclaims an interdiction "the thoughtful (monk) should not use" "that (form of speech) which is true (but) not to be uttered, that which is half-true, that which is (quite) untrue, none (of which is) practised by the Jinas". The positive recommendation is formulated in the next sloka : "(But) he should, after deliberation (samuppeham), use a speech not exposed to doubt (asamdiddham giram bhasejja), that is (a speech) which is neither true nor untrue and (a speech) which is true, provided that it is not to be blamed or rough" asaccamosam, saccam ca anavajjam akakkasam (Dasav 7.2-3)2. Thus, the conceptual frame is firmly set for a discussion on bhasa to take place. The adduced definitions aim at being both clear and exact (in agreement with the complexity of reality); moreover, they expressly recognize the heterogeneity of charity and truth: further whereas, as we have just seen, Manu merely combined both virtues in, so to say, a formal fourfold pattern, the Jainas strive for complete integration and try to reconcile these sometimes contradictory requirements in a higher synthesis. Their effort can also be evaluated if compared with the 9 2. (ib 9-10), which stresses the necessity to expel all passions (compare, supra, ApDhS 1.8.23.5): kohe mine ya miyae lo(b)he ya uvantlay a hase bhae moharie vikahasu tah'eva ca eyaim attha thanaim barivajjitu samjae asavajjam miya kale bhasam bhasejja pannavam "To give way to anger, pride, deceit and greed, laughter, fear, loquacity and slander; these eight faults should a well-disciplined monk avoid; he should use blameless and concise speech at the proper time" (transl.

Two points, nevertheless, are manifest: (1) all the prohibitions and injunctions included in the two relevant lessons of Ayar and Dasav can be shown to proceed from the above two fundamental principles, observance of truth based on sam jama, and observance of ahimsa; 52) the various particular prescriptions are, in many cases, akin or similar to those which are laid down in the DhS; but, precisely because the Jaina chapters concentrate on bhasa exclusively, all the minute rules can easily be reco. gnized as special applications of an underlying theoretical scheme (applied examples of which are evidently liable to be multiplied); moreover, though they start from a multiplicity of particular consideration (most of which are formulated in all Indian sastras), the Jainas obviously connect them with their own metaphysical system (and their doctrine of jiva-nikagas, infra), therefore promote a more consistent and general outlook; finally, they tend to include in the bhasa-chapter remarks which, in the DhS (also : in the Jaina suttas) mainly concern behaviours : Just as bad behaviour should be shunned, words also must clearly, though not aggressively, help discriminate between good and reprehensible conduct; in all possible ways, speech shall conform to the correct norm4. Thus, from the Dasav and Ayar point of view, the scope of bhasa seems almost unlimited 5. 1. 2.

Cf Page #336 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Rules Concerning Speech (Bhasa) in the Ayaranga Let us consider some of the examples adduced by the texts. In Pannavana, all speech inspired by the four kasayas, koha mana..., is assimilated to lie, mosal. On the other hand, according to Ayar, anger etc. are conducive to harsh words ( 2.4.1.1 ) that hurt (ib 6). As such, they are prohibited. For its part, Dasav explains, so to say, the sloka 7.11-35 by emphasizing twice, at the beginning, and towards the end of the development, that a wise monk must (even if it is true) avoid all "rough speech which does harm to living beings : .... ....pharusa bhasa guru-bhuovaghaini sacca vi sa na vattavva........ (7.11, cf. 29 c-d). Without going into all the details and possible digressions, it is interesting to review what is prescribed and what is prohibited in the aforesaid passage. Various recommendations are met with which have been seen to be addressed either to the brahmacarin or the snataka in the Dhs. In Dasav 7.12, it is stressed that defect and mutilations should not be pointed to?; that various personal remarks are unacceptable (though they might be true literally speaking) for they might lead to faults of feeling and of conduct.3 In this connexion, prescribed and recommended terms of address are specified, and detailed in six slokas (14-19). But it is not enough to observe circumspection when addressing mankind : circumspection is necessary also when speaking of all other five sense creatures, pancediya-pana, and, in particular, no himsa should be suggested against them, whatever their species. Cows, especially, should not be referred to foolishly : 2. "(he who) speaks after consideration, controls his senses well, has overthrown the four passions, (and) is without (worldly) support purges (his soul) of the dirt resulting from previous evil deeds (and) is sanctified in this world and the next. Thus I say "trsl. Schubring). Compare Pannav chap. 11 SS 830-1, the fourfold oharani-bhasa: the sacca form is arahani. Cf. chap. 11 $ 963. tah' eva kana m'kane' tti .... .... no dae, ".... a monk should not call a one-eyed man ...." by this sante; cf. Ayar 2.4.2.1. een 'annena atthena paro jen uvahammai, ayara-bhava-dosa-nni, na tai bhasejja pannavam, "because the person concerned would be hurt by this or similar statement, a thoughtful (monk) should not utter such speech, as he knows (that) faults of conduct and of feeling (would result from it), trsl. cf. Schubring. cf. Ayar 2.4.2.1-2. tah' eva "hole" "gole" tii .... na tam bhasejja thannavam, 7.14. etc. Cf. Ayar 2.4.1. 8-11 (on how to address or not to address a man, a woman).

He should say: 'this is a young bull', 'this is a milk cow', juvam-gave ti nam baya, dheyum rasa-daya li va2. There can be little doubt that all these rules more or less echo what is to be found in the different sections of the DhS. But the Jainas adapt them and expatiate further. After they have mentioned the highest beings, the pancendiya-panas, they jump to the other extremity of the animate world of the chajjiva-nikayas-to the immobile jivas, viz, trees (and their fruit), plants, etc., which naturally must also be respected, as prescribed in ten slokas (7,26-35) in fact, all the jivas come to be protected thanks to the warnings against and condemnation of bhovaghaizi bhasa. Thus, following the thread offered by the first part of Dasav 7 and (though perhaps not so clearly) by Ayar 2.4, we have encountered many of the prescriptions found in the DhS; it is obvious, nevertheless, that, in the Jaina suttas, they are integrated in a comparatively well-defined general structure. 1. 2. The second part of Dasav 7 warns against colloquial expressions which, in fact, are misleading, as they confuse right and wrong. Some concern, for instance, festive entertainments, (crossing, etc., of) rivers. (36-39), in short, precisely those actions which are criticised in the above quoted khandas of ApDhS (1.11.3132) and connected brahmanic texts: the Jainas retain most of the circumstances detailed in the DhS chapter(s), but, in the present development, they focus the attention on what is commonly-lightly said about them. Caution is also required if the monk should mention actions or preparations which are usually said to be "well done", "well cooked", 3. 4.

Page #338 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Rules Concerning Speech (Bhasa) in the Ayaranga Self-control is further required when speaking of atmospheric phenomena. It will be remembered, in this connection, that Gaut Dhs, etc. specify, in particular, how to mention the rain-bow (supra). But, whereas the DhS seem to express some form of taboo, the Jainas aim at being accurate and consistent; the words chosen by the religious person should not contradict with the objective truths attained by the (Jaina) scientists; therefore, "he should not say that a cloud, the sky, or a man is a god, (but) he should (simply) state (the fact) that a cloud has formed itself or has risen high, or that a thunder-cloud has sent down rain": tah' eva meham va naham va manavam na deva deva tti giram vaejja; *sammucchie unnae va paoe' vaejja va vutthe balahae'tti (Dasav 7.52). 2 Moreover, the monk will naturally accept seasons and events with due equanimity, Self-control, samjaya, is all the more advocated as it often happens that false appearances are confused with truth, and hence, are conducive to lies and to sin. 4 Therefore, one should be careful when speaking of doubtful matters--an advice which is also given by ApDhs, as we have seen.5 Dasav and Ayar apply this consideration to trivial remarks, especially to those concerning future events, which, by nature, are uncertain; and, also, to those that concern the sex of various animals. Consequently, attention must also be paid to grammar and grammatical correction, of which Ayar recalls the fundamental constituents (2.4.1.3). Thus, 1. Cf. ApDhS 1.11.31.16, etc. supra. 2. Cf. ib 53; Ayar 2.4.1.12-13. Dasav 7.50-51; Ayar 2.4.1.12-13. Dasav 7.5 : vitaham pi taha-mottim jam giram bhasae naro tamha so puttho pavenam ........

Page #339 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 14 Collette Caillat the Jainas seem to advocate purism, at least as far as possible, and their attitude is noteworthy, as the Buddhists apparently deny that any fundamental connection exists between chaste speech and spiritual achievement. In this case, then, as in several others, the Jainas probably follow the Brahmanic trend more closely than the Buddhists do. Be that as it may, it is obvious that the Jainas were well aware of the prescriptions concerning speech which are registered in the Dharmasastras; moreover, in the above quoted Dasav and Ayar chapters, they appear to have added several new bhasa rules which almost certainly stem from the same common sources, though they seem to have been suggested not so much by the actual wording (in the Dhs they concern deeds) as by their location, (in the Dhs, they are in the immediate context of the rules about speech). On the other hand, it cannot be denied that the Jainas unweariedly strive to be explicit about the conceptual basis of, and reasons for, the rules they ordain. This, possibly, helped them to consider floating precepts with fresh eyes, to group them and integrate them in an organic unity. In this respect, whatever their actual sources, the Jainas can be said to have achieved a perfectly original work. Nowhere, in the Ayar and Dasav chapters, is there any mention of retaliation, or any trace of obscure fear of occult forces; on the contrary, all the percepts are wellgrounded on objective considerations--whether scientific, metaphysical and/or ethical. To a certain extent, thanks to these lessons on bhasa, we can witness how the Jainas have reconsidered generally accepted rules of conduct and recast them to build a really new, and comparatively systematic, code. 1.

Norman The fourteenth chapter of the Uttarajjhayana-sutta,' entitled Usuyarijjam tells of the two sons of a purohita, named Usuyara, who determine to leave the world and become (Jaina) monks. Their father tries to dissuade them, but fails. He follows them after they have gone forth, and is followed in turn by his wife. The king proposes to confiscate his property, but is dissuaded by the queen. He too goes forth, and the queen follows him. Jataka No. 509 of the Pali collection (Hatthipala-jataka=Ja IV 473-91) tells what essentially is the same story, although there are some minor diflerences, e. g. there are four sons. The parallels between these two texts, also with some verses of the Mahabharata, were long ago noted by Western scholars, and studies of their relationship were made by Leumann?, Franke, s and Charpentier.4 In both the Pali and the Pkt versions the story is told in a mixture of Iloka and tristubh verses. In the Ja version there are 26 verses, of which 20 are tr. and 6 $1.; the Pkt version has 53 verses, of which 32 are tr. and 21 $1. Although the stories are similar, the direct parallels in the verses are not numerous. Among the tr. verses only six are held in common, and in several of these the parallelism extends only as far as a single pada. Portions of three fl. verses in the Pali are found in four fl. verses in the Pkt. On sl. verse in the Pkt corresponds to a tr. verse in the Pali. With one exception, in sl. metre, the verses held in common all occur in the dialogues between the various characters in the story. It has been pointed out by Alsdorfs that in such stories in mixed verse, the earliest version was probably in pure tr. verses, and the fl. verses probably 1.

Page #342 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Uttarajjhayana-Sutta XIV: Usuyarijjam represent later additions. It seems likely that this is true also of the present story, but if the earliest version was in tr. metre, it is nevertheless clear that some of the tr. verses are also later additions. The story in Utt begins with six narrative verses in tr. metre (vv. 1-6) which tell the background to the story. These are lacking in Ja, which has three introductory verses in fl. metre (gg. 1-3). Similarly the Ja story concludes with six tr. verses in which the queen discusses with the townspeople her intention to become a wanderer (gg. 21-26). There is no direct parallel to these in the Utt version, where the end of the story is told in five fl. verse (vv. 49-53). The work done by the early scholars has stood the test of time, and when Charpentier made a new edition of Utt in 19221 there was little he could add to what he and others had done earlier. Since that time, however, further comparative studies, especially by Alsdorf, have shed light on the relationship between Jaina and Buddhist texts, and in this paper I should like to make a further examination of some of the verses of Utt XIV and their counterparts elsewhere, in the hope that progress may be made in their interpretation and understanding. (1) The first verse which is common to the two versions is v. 9 (g. 4), in which the purohita tells his sons of the duties of a brahmana, which they should fulfil before they become wanderers. In Charpentier's edition the verss reads: 17 ahijja vee parivissa vippe putte paritthappa gihamsi jaya bhoccana bhoe saha itthiyahim aragraga hoha muni pasatta. The Pali version has adhicca in place of Pkt ahijja, which might be thought to show voicing of -ce->-jj. It is, in fact, due to a development from a different form. The Pali is derived from adhitya (which occurs in the Skt version of the verse), whereas the Pkt is derived from adhiya, with -y--iyy--ijj-. Charpentier notes (p. 333) that Ja has tata instead of jaya, and he suggests reading taya. I do not understand his reference to Devendra apparently taking jaya as an attribute of putte. According to the edition of Devendra's cty available to me, he takes it as a vocative and glosses it as jatau putrau, whereas he glosses pulle as putran. Although Charpentier reads taya in v. 18, which might seem to support his suggestion, he gives a v. 1. jaya, and this seems to have been the reading known 3. 1. J. Charpentier (ed.): The Uttaradhyayanastra, Uppsala 1922. 2. See L. Alsdorf, "The story of Citta and Sambhuta", Dr. S. K. Belvalkar Felicitation Volume, Benares 1957, pp. 202-208. References to Utt are to Charpentier's edition, unless otherwise stated. References to Ja are to Fausbll's edition. 3 Page #343 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 18 K. R. Norman to Devendra, who glosses it he jatau. Charpentier himself reads jaya again in v. 22, and once again Devendra glosses this as he jatau. A Skt version of this verse occurs in the Mahabharata in a story about a brahmana who is asked by his son about the action to be taken when the world is passing away (MBh [crit. ed] Santiparvan XII. 169). In the MBh the verse is followed by the equivalents of vv. 21-23. Not only does the fl. metre of these verses suggest that they are an addition to the story, but this is confirmed by the fact that they are lacking in the Ja version, although they do have a separate existence elsewhere in the Ja collection, at Ja VI 26, 11-16.1 (2) In the version in Utt, as part of the discussion aimed at persuading his sons not to become wanderers, the purohita tells them that their action would be profitless, because the soul is not eternal. He states (v. 18): Jacobi translates (p. 64): "As fire is produced in the arani-wood, as butter in milk, and oil in sesamum seed, so, my sons, is the soul produced in the body; (all these things) did not exist before, they came into existence, and then they perish; but they are not permanent." In a footnote to his translation "soul" he states (p. 64 n. 1): "Satta is the original; it is rendered sattva by the commentators. Perhaps satta is the prakrit for seatma; at any rate the context of the next verse proves that the soul is intended." jaha ya aggi arani asanto khire ghayam tellam aha tilesu em eva, laya, sariramhi satta sammucchai nasai navacitthe. The Jaina Visva Bharati Prakasana edition (Ladnun 1975) reads in padas a : jaha ya aggl araplu 'samto and Devendra seems to have had the same reading before him when he commented: yathaiva casyavadharanarthatvat 'agnih' "arapiu" tti 'aranitah' agnimanthanakapthat 'asan' avidyamana eva sammirechati, jatha ksire ghrtam tailam atha tilesu, evam eva he jatau! farire sattvah "sammucchai" tti 'sammurcchanti' parvam asanta evotpadyante. tatha "nasai" tti nafyanti "navacitthamti" na punar avatisthante fariranate tannalat, iti satrarthah. It would seem that Jacobi's translation is based upon the cty explanation, but this presents considerable difficulties Although Charpentier's reading arani is not easy to explain, Devendra's lemma aragiu with the gloss aragitah, i. e. a quasiablative explained as agni-manthana-kasthat, is also inappropriate, since in the context 1.

Page #344 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Uttarajjhajar a-Sutta XIV : U suyarijjam 19 with khire and tilesu we should expect another locative Secondly, the explanation of satta as the equivalent of Skt sattvah necessitates the taking of sammucchai and nasai as plurals, i.e. the equivalents of Skt sammurcchanti and nasyanti. We can, however, provide a locative by dividing Charpentier's reading as arania 'santo, and assuming that the expected Ardha-Magadhi reading araaie 'santo was replaced by Charpentier's reading as a result of the existence of the word asan in the cty's explanation, The second problem can possibly be resolved by referring to the Suyaga. damga where a similar point of view is put forward by another non-Jaina, a sramana or brahmana : se jahanamae kei purise tilehimto tellam abhinivvattitta nam wvadamsejja ayam, auso, tellam ayam pinnae, evam eva n' atthi kei purise uvadamsettaro ayam, auso, aya iyam....se jahanamae kei purise aranio aggim abhinivattita nam unadamsejja ayam, auso, arani ayam aggi, evam eve java sariram. evam asante asamvijjamane jesim tam asamte asamvijjamane tesim tam su-y- akkhayam bhavati, anno bhavati jivo annam sariram (Suy II. 1.16=Suttagame I, pp. 137.38). Jacobi gives a somewhat condensed translation (p. 341) : "As a man presses oil from the seeds of Atasi, and shows the oil and the oil-cake separately, so nobody can show you the soul and the body separately. The same applies also when fire is churned from Arani-wood. Those who believe that there is and exists no soul, speak the truth." A comparison between this passage and v 18 indicates important differences. The speaker in the Suy passage is saying that it is possible to separate oil from oilseed, or make fire from a fire-stick and show the two separately, but it is not possible to show the soul separately from the body. In v. 18, if we follow Jacobi's translation, the speaker is saying that oil is not in the seed, nor fire in the fire. stick, nor the soul in the body. So Suy and Utt seem to be contradictory. This contradiction can be resolved by assuming that we should read not arania 'santo, as just decided, but arania santo. We should then translate : "Like fire being in the fire-stick". It would seem that the reading in Utt, with a negative asanto or (with prodelision) 'santo, and Devendra's explanation of this reading, are in fact based upon the Suy passage. The Utt passage states (if this suggestion is correct) that the soul is in the body, just as oil is in the seed and fire in the firestick, and if you destroy one you destroy the other with it. In the Suy passage it is stated that it is possible to take oil from the oil-seed and make fire with the firestick and show them separately, but this cannot be done with the soul and the body, The reason for this is that one and the same illustration has been used to serve two different purposes, and other examples can be given of illustrations being used in this way. It is clear that Devendra, or the cty tradition he was following, 1. I have dealt with another example in "Kriyavada and the existence of the soul" in Buddhism and Jainism (ed. H. C. Das et al.), Cuttack 1976, Part II, pp. 4-12. Page #345 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 20 K. R. Norman did not realise this, and consequently failed to understand the contrast between the two passages. He did not see that the point of v. 18 was that the fire was in the fire-stick, and so he emended the text to read araglu, i. e. a quasi-ablative, perhaps because of the existence of the word aragio in the Suy passage. Because the latter passage had asam te, he interpreted the word santo in v. 18 as standing for "samtoasamto, which he consequently explained as meaning asan; This (3) In answer to the purohita's brahmanical view of the soul, the sons give the Jaina view of the soul's permanence (v. 19). As in the case of v. 18, there is no parallel to this verse in the Pali version, possibly because an argument in favour of the permanence of the soul would be inappropriate in a Buddhist text. does not, however, prove that these two verses are an addition made by the Jaina redactor, since they may be an original feature which was retained by the Jainas as being in conformity with their own views, but omitted by the Buddhists because as with v. 18. The interpretation of the verse is helped by the occur. rence of similar views elsewhere in Jaina literature. The sons say no indiya-ggejjha amuttabhava amuttabhava vi ja hoi nicco. ajjhatthaheum niyayassa bandho samsaraheum ca vayanti bandham. Jacobi translates (p. 64): "(The soul) cannot be apprehended by the senses, because it possesses no corporeal form, and since it possesses no corporeal form it is eternal. The fetter of the soul has been ascertained to be caused by its bad qualities, and this fetter is called the cause of worldly existence." The Jaina Visva Bharati Prakasana edition differsdin pada c where it reads: ajjhatthaheum niyaya 'ssa bandho instead of Charpentier's niyayassa. Devendra's cty explains: 'no' naiva indriyagrahyah sattva iti prakramah, amurttabhavat, tatha amarttabhavad api ca bhavati nityah, tatha hi-yad dravyatve sati amurttam tad nityam akafavat, na caivam amurttatvad eva tasya sambandhasambhavah, yatah "ajjhatthaheum niyaya 'ssa bandho" adhyatmal abdena atmastha mithyatvadaya ihocyante, tatas taddhetuh-taunimitto niyatah--nifcito bandhah-karmabhih samflesah, yatha mirttasyapi nabhaso mirttair api ghatadibhih sambandha evam asyapi karmabhir mirttair api na virudhyate, tatha samsarahetum na vadanti bandham iti sutrarthah It seems probable that in pada a indiyaggejjha is metri causa for-ggejjho which agrees with nicco. The subject of the sentence must be the same as in the previous verse, i. e. satta. This shows that satta must be masculine and singular, and probably stands for Skt svatma. Devendra assumes that the subject is the same as in the previous verse, i. e. sattva, but because the verb is singular he decides that the subject too must be singular, i. e. sattvah. In pada c niyaya, as read by Page #346 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Uttarajjhayana-Sutta XIV : U suyarijja Devendra, must also be masculine, to agree with bandho. There seems to be no reason for reading niyaya 'ssa, since niyayo 'ssa would have exactly the same metrical length. It would therefore seem better to divide the words as niyay' assa, i. e. to assume that the final vowel of niyayo has been elided before assa. Jacobi, taking niyayassa as a genitive singular, translates it as "of the soul", although this meaning does not seem to be attested elsewhere for niyaya or nijaka, from which he presumably thought niyaya was to be derived. If we accept Devendra's explanation, and assume that niyay' assa bandho stands for niyatah (=niscito) bandhah asyi, we can translate "its binding is fixed, determined, settled". The rest of Jacobi's translation of pada c seems to be an interpretation rather than a translation, since he takes ajjhatthaheum to mean "caused by its bad qualities", which seems to be based upon the explanation : adhyatmas abden atmasthu mit hatvadaya ihocyante, tatas taddhetuh tannimitto. This. however, implies the reading -heu rather than -heum, and the assumption that the word agrees with bandho. There seems to be no objection to keeping Charpentier's reading, and taking it as an adverbial accusative. We can therefore translate : "because of the things connected with the soul". (4) v. 20 is the equivalent of g. 10, which is the sons' final statement before they abandon the world. In the version in Utt it is followed by v. 27, which is the equivalent of an earlier verse (g. 7) in the Pali version. As we shall see, it is probable that v. 27 has been misplaced, and it should really come before v. 20 The verse reads : jaha vayam dhammam ajanamana pavam pura kammam akasi moha orubbhamana parirakkhiyanta tam n'eva bhujjo vi samayaramo, Jacobi translates (p. 64): "Thus being ignorant of the law, we formerly did sinful nd through our wrong-mindedness we were kept back and retained (from entering the order). We shall not again act in the same way". This translation seems strange, and the presence of the singular verb akasi in pada b causes difficulties. The cty explains : patha vayam dharmam' samyagdarsanadikam ajananah "papam papahetum 'pura' purvam 'karma' anusthanam 'akasi' tti akarsma krtavantah 'mohat' ajnanat 'avarudhyamanah' nirgamam grhad alabhamanah 'pariraks yamanah' anujivibhir anupalyamanah'tat' papakarma naiva 'bhuyo 'pi' punar api samacaramah, yathavad viditavastutvad iti sutrarthah. A comparison with Pali g. 10 shows the correct way of interpreting this verse. It reads : Page #347 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ K. R. Norman ayam pure luddam akasi kammam sv ayain gahito, na hi mokkh' ito me orundhiya nam porirakkissami mayam puna luddam akasi kammam. This shows that pada b of the Utt version originally referred to a singular subject, but has been incorporated into a verse with a plural subject. This explains why Devendra has to take akasi as being a plural verb. It is also clear that orubbhamana and parirakkhiyanta do not refer to the past, but to the future. We may therefore translate : "As formerly we did evil because of our delusion, not knowing the doctrine, being restrained and guarded we shall not do it again". (5) In v. 27 the sons point out that only those who are friendly with death know when they will die, and are therefore able to make plans for the future. This seems more appropriate as an answer to the purohita's suggestion that they delay their departure until they have raised sons to take their place in the home. We may deduce, therefore, that this verse has been misplaced, and it should come earlier in the story, as its Pali equivalent (g. 7) does. The fact that in Utt it is a fl. verse, whereas in Ja it is a tr., suggests that it was originally an addition in $1. metre, which was transformed into tr. in the Pali tradition. If it is an addition, then the fact that its position varies in the different traditions is understandable. The difference between Pali sakkhi and Pkt sakkhain is probably to be expla. ined by the assumption of the palatalisation of -a > -i after the -y. of -khy- before it was assimilated and disappeared. PED lists sakkhi and sakkhi as neuter and feminine respectively. There is no obvious reason for the change of gender, and except for the final -? there is no evidence that the word is feminine here. The lengthening of the final vowel is probably metri causa, since the fifth syllable of a Ir. pada is usually long before the caesura when two short syllables follow. (6) Although Alsdorf in his article about the use of the verb vam- to refer to the abandonment of worldly belongings and sensual pleasures states that the equivalent of Pali g. 17 is not found in Utt, it does in fact occur there, split between vv. 44 and 45. The Pali version has hatthattham agata, while Utt reads hatthajjamagaya, for which the punctuation hatth [for hattham] ajja-m-agaya is suggested by Charpentier (p. 335). At Ja V 347, 14 the cty explains hatthattham (Ja V 346, 9*) as hatthe attham pattam, which confirms that the text being commented upon included -tth-, but at Ja II 383, 9* Fausbll's edition reads hatthattam, and the authenticity of this reading 1.

Alsdorf, "Vantam apatum", Indian Linguistics, Vol. 16, pp. 21-28. Page #348 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Uttarajjhayana-Sutta XIV: Usuyarijjam is confirmed by BHS hastatvam (at Mvu II 182, 4*, although the Pali equivalent at Ja IV 459, 28* has hatthattham). In the Utt version, Devendra explains ajja as a vocative (=he arya), but Charpentier suggests that it is to be derived from Skt adya "today"="now" (p. 335). Since, however, the variation in spelling in Pali indicates that there was doubt about the derivation of the word, it is possible that -jjrepresents an attempt on the part of the scribal tradition to make sense of something which had been inherited but found unintelligible. The fact that in the Utt version vv. 44-45 come after v. 38 (eg. 18) supports Alsdorf's viewl that in Ja the two verses which are intended to dissuade the king (gg. 17-18) are in reverse order, and g. 18 should come before g. 17. (7) The queen also utters v. 46 to dissuade the king from taking the purohita's possessions. It has no parallel in the Pali version, but one exists in the Mahabharata, in a section describing the attainment of happiness and tranquillity. The fact that it is an addition in the Utt story is shown by the fact that it is not quite appropriate in the context, and this is confirmed by its being in the Sl. metre. It was probably added because like vv. 44-45 it deals with birds and food. The verse reads : samisam kulala m dissa bajjhamanam niramisam amisam savvam ujjhitta viharissami niramisa. Jacobi translates (p. 68): "As an unbaited (bird) sees a baited one caught in the snare, even so shall we avoid every bait and walk about, not baited by anything". This translation is only acceptable on the supposition that the first line is some sort of accusative absolute construction, and Charpentier has drawn attention to its lack of clarity. Franke had already given a reference for the Skt parallel, which was quoted by Charpentier :8 samisam kuraram drstva vadhyamanam nitamisaih amisasya parityagat kurarah sukham edhate (MBh XII. 171). The first line means : "Seeing the eagle with bait being killed by those without bait", and this is confirmed by another verse quoted by Franke : samisam kuraram jaghnur balino 'nye niramisah tad amisam parityagya sa sukham samavindata. Translated into Pkt, the first line of the first verse would read : samisam kulalam dissa vajjhamanam niramise, with the instrumental plural ending-e instead of the more usual-ehi, which would not scan. It is likely that the Jaina redactor did 1. L. Alsdorf, "Vantam apatum" Indian linguistics, Vol. 16, p. 27. 2. Charpentier, 1908, p. 739 n. 2. 3. ibid. 4. Franke, op. cit. (in n. 3), p. 345 n. 1. Page #349 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 24 K. R. Norman not recognise this rare ending-e, and in the belief that it was a nominative in-e (it would be difficult to fit a locative in-e into the sentence), he changed it to - am. Charpentier stated (p. 335) that viharissami in pada d spoiled the metre, and suggested reading carissami. He also believed that urago in pada c of v. 47 made bad metre, and proposed to read uago. He further suggested (p. 333) reading bavhin place of bahu-in pada b of v. 7, without comment. All three suggestions are unnecessary When Charpentier made his edition of Utt little work had been done on such questions as the resolution of vowels in metrical texts. The words he queried are all examples of the common resolution of an initial long syllable in a tr. or fl. pada. (8) The one exception to the statement that all the parallel verses occur in the dialogue is v. 48 (=g. 20). The verse reads : nago vva bandhanam chitta appano vasahim vae eyam paccham maharayam Ussuyari (v. I Usu-) tti me suyam. Jacobi translates (p. 68): "Like an elephant who has broken his fetters, go to your proper destination. O great king Isukari; this is the wholesome truth I have learned". It is clear that if this translation is correct, then tti has been misplaced, and a comparison with Pali : idam vatva maharaja Esukari disampati rattham hitvana pabbaji nago chetva va bandhanam suggests that we take vae in pada b not as an optative "you should go", but as an example of the not uncommon usage in Pkt of an aorist which has a form identical with that of an optative. The name Us(suyari would then be a nominative, not a vocative, and we should have to assume that the word maharayam (or the v. 1. For examples of this ending in Pali see W.

Norman, "Notes on the Vessantara-jataka", in Studien zum Jainismus und Buddhismus, Wiesbaden 1981, pp. 168-69. In view of the statement made there. (p. 169) about the normalisation of readings, it is perhaps of interest to note that in an example quoted above Mvu II 182,4* reads agacche while Ja IV 459,28* reads aganchi. 3. Page #350 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Uttarajjhayana-Sutta XIV : Usuyarijjan 25 -raya) had been introduced as a replacement for maharaya. We could then translate : "King Isukara went forth to that auspicious (place) as an elephant breaking its fetters (goes) to its own dwelling. Thus have I heard." Since it is in both versions, we can deduce that this $1. verse was an early addition to the story, and at one stage must have formed the end of the narrative. It therefore follows that everything that comes after it is a later addition, as Charpentier notes p. 335). In both versions the reference to the queen going forth comes after this verse, and it seems possible that at an earlier stage of the story there was no mention of her doing this. Both traditions would have had no difficulty in adding independently details about her going forth, to round off the story and to give a parallel to the purohita's wife following the purohita. We may draw certain conclusions : (a) The Utt and Ja versions of the story have six tr. verses in common. These are all dialogue, and are ascribed to the same speakers and occur in the same order in the two traditions. They cover the episodes of the purohita trying to dissuade his sons, their reply leading to their going forth, the purohita's decision to follow them, and his wife following him. This is the very oldest part of the story. (b) An early addition in sl, metre tells of the sons' replies to their father, the queen's attempt to dissuade the king, and the king's decision to go forth. These verses were added to the story early enough for them to be in both traditions. The Pali tradition converted the first of them into tr. metre. (c) The Jaina version contains two tr. verses giving the brahmanical and antibrahmanical views of the soul. These may belong to the earliest version of the story, although they are similar to passages found elsewhere in Jaina texts. The Buddhist version either never knew them, or omitted them. (d) The version in Utt adds a dialogue in sl. verses about the threat to the world. These also occur in the MBh, in company with the first verse uttered by the purohita. (e) The Utt version adds another sl. verse, also found in the MBh, about the greediness of birds. (f) Each version adds separate introductory verses, in the $1. metre in the Ja version and in tr. metre in the Utt. The Utt version also adds narrative verses in tr metre to clarify the story. The Ja version has its prose story, so such narrative verses are not required. Page #351 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 26 K. R. Norman (g) Each version adds a conclusion. The Ja adds verses in tr. metre dealing only with the townspeople and the queen, since the prose can tell the rest of the story. The Utt version adds verses in sl. metre dealing with all six participants. Both versions tell of the queen going forth, but the details may be of independent origin, since her action follows naturally after the king's, and is a parallel to that of the purohita's wife. Page #352 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ REFLECTIONS ON THE JAINA EXEGETICAL LITERATURE B. K. Khadabadi According to the Jaina tradition the teachings of Jina Mahavira were grasped and then composed by his close disciples, the ganadharas, in the form of sutras which later on came to be orally transmitted to the successive generations of teachers. And those teachings, according to the Svetambara tradition, finally settled down in writing, passing through a few redactions carried over during the course of about a millenium, as the "Ardhamagadhi canon' consisting of same 45 sacred texts. Depending on the nature of the texts and the needs of the time, a great number of explanatory works-agamic vyakhyas--were composed, at first in Prakrit, and next in Sanskrit and old Gujarati? by the Jaina acaryas between the period of c. A. D. 100-1800. This huge mass of literature is generally known as the Jaina exegesis or the Jaina exegetical literature, which has contributed its important mite to the history of Indian thought and literature. This vast literature is represented mainly by its four classes or types, namely Nijjutti (Skt. Niryukti), Bhasa (Bhasya), Cunni (Curni) and Vitti (Vstti) or Tika, mostly forming the four successive layers. After the Jaina studies in general and the study of Jaina canonical works in particular were pioneered by the Western scholars like A, Weber and Hermann Jacobi, for several years it was the 4th class of the Jaina exegetical literature, namely the Tikas, that served the purpose of scholars indulging in deeper and extensive studies in the field of Jainology, both in India and in the Western countries, and in Japan. The state of knowledge of the other three classes was so poor that even scholar like Jacobi at times confounded Bhasya and Curnia, and Jal Charpenteer rather conjectured the Curni as metricals besides suspecting (through grammatical lapses) the metrical correctness of the Niryukti and the Bhasya. 4 The Niryukti, the first type of exegetical literature, being long ago ignored by the later Sanskrit commentators (the Tikakaras) by dropping them from their works, likewise had received scant attention in our days. It was Leumann who inaugurated a systematized study of the Niryuktis some 90 years ago, concentrating as he then did on one of them, namely the Avassaya-nijjutti (Avas yaka-niryukti), extended its study over subsequent layers and allied groups, and finally called the outcome of his long, hard and sustained studies, the "Avassya Literature". Since then the importance and magnitude of, as well as the hurdles in, the study of the Jaina exegetical literature conspicuously have come to light. But, unfortunately, as remarked by Walthar Schubring and noted by Ludwig Alsdorf, 5 "Leumann has never had a successor" -his work has not been resumed and continued. The reasons for such a state of affairs in this important domain of Jaina studies can be noted as follows: the non-coming to Page #353 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 28 B. K. Khadabadi light of the entire exegetical material, the existence of the non-critical and unsatisfactory texts of all the four types of commentaries (parts of many of which are either mixed or intermingled), their non-availability owing to rarity of manuscripts and several of the published ones going out of print, the limited or difficult accessibility (owing to rarity) to the available ones at many centres and libraries, etcetera.? Let us, then, have in brief a connected and comparative view of these four classes of the Jaina exegetical literature as known and today available. The Niryuktis are a peculiar type of versified commentaries developed by the early Jaina teachers with a view to explaining the canonical texts. To facilitate oral transmission, they came to be composed in the form of memorial verses with catch-words that helped the teacher in instructing and explaining the holy scriptures. Actually, the Niryukti is defined as that which contains a decided or intended meaning of the terms contained in it. Alsdorf points out that the most prominent feature of the Niryukti "is the so-called niksepa, no doubt the exclusive invention of the Jaina scholars and their most original contribution to scholastic research."8 The niksepa is a method of investigation to which any word or concept can be subjected by applying the various points of views for getting the multi-faced knowledge of the same. Such being the nature of the Niryukti, it did not much help in understanding the meaning of the corresponding canonical text. Hence other explanatory verses were, at later stages, inserted or added. The result was the emergence of the Bhasya, the next class of the Jaina exegetical literature. The available Niryuktis are ten in number and tradition attributes them to Bhadrabahu I (B. C. 300). But Leumann, after deep study, has attributed them to the Bhadrabahu of A. D, 100% though a group of scholars now-a-days take the bulk of them to be posterior to the Valabhi Synod II (c. A. D. 454/457 or better A. D. 503/516).10 The Niryuktis have not been written on all the canonical texts but only on the inost important ones, those that formed the nucleus of the canonical material and required that kind of explanations. They contain, on the average, a few hundred verses. But the Avat yaka-niryukti has the largest number of verses and it is said to be complete and scientifically presented. As noted above, from the later additions and insertions of the further expla. natory verses into the body of the Niryukti, there emerged the Bhasya type of exegetical literature. This phenomenon has been explained by different scholars in differing ways. I would rather quote here H, R. Kapadia : "Nijjutti contains verses really belonging to it and some of the corresponding Bhasa too; but the former preponderate over the latter. Similarly Bhasa consists of verses which legitimately belong to it; and in addition, it has some verses of the relevant Nijjutti as well; but the former exceed the latter in number."11 This means that the verses in the extant corresponding texts of these two classes of exegetical literature are partly intermingled. We today possess no Bhasyas for 5 Niryuktis, (There is no Page #354 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reflections on the Jaina Exegetical Literature 29 certainty whether these ever were written). The total number of the currently available Bhasyas on the canonical texts is 11, which are broadly dated between A. D. 500-700.12 Most of the Bhasyas comprise a few thousand Prakrit verses each. Re-explanatory processes at length in the case of some important scriptural texts like the Avassaya have produced extraordinary commentaries like the Vibes = Avafyaka-Bhas ya (c. A, D. 585-590) that comprises the more ancient mulabhasya as well as the Bhasya, and the Visesabhasya, the author Jinabhadra gani Ksamasra. mana (latter half of the 6th cent. A. D.) is prominent among the Bhasyakaras, besides Sanghadasa gani Ksamasramana. The Curnis mark a new phase in the growth of the Jaina exegesis, both in respect of form and linguistic trait. They are mostly in Prakrit prose with the mixture of Sanskrit in varied degrees. 18 This indicates the need of the time-the Jaina Acaryas being tempted to begin to adopt Sanskrit too in their exegetical writings, a trend that further paved the path for the latter commentaries in Sanskrit, namely the Tikas. Curnis are found to have been written on some 20 canonical works between c. A, D. 600-700. The prominent of the Curnikaras is Jinadasagani Mahattara. It may be noted that the sub-domains of Bhasya and Curni cannot be duly demarked chronologically; at least one Bhasya is posterior to the earliest Curnis; but a Bhasya on which we have a Curni is assuredly anterior to that particular Curni. The main value of the Curnis lies in the preservation of the old Prakrit narratives in their own grand style. And several quote from works now lost. Leaving aside the mixture of Sanskrit, the Curni, on the whole, may be said to have contained the full text of the traditional exegesis that was passed on from tongue to tongue in early days. When we come to the Tikas we find some interesting features of form, language, exegetic methodology, etcetera. They are in Sanskrit prose. Most of them, however, preserve their narrative parts in Prakrit-in almost the same form and content as in the Curnis. 14 They explain the Niryukti verses as well as the Bhasya verses, many a times alternately and often adopting and brandishing the technique of the Brahmanic Nyaya school. There has been at least one Tika for almost every canonical work. Haribhadra Suri (8th cent. A, D.) happens to be the first among such commentators and most of the remaining commentators flourished between A. D. 800-1300, though the Tikas continued to be written till A. D. 1600. My interest in and curiosity for the Jaina exegetical literature led me through some of these works and the concerned ctitical writings of some modern scholars and made me acquaint myself pretty well with these four classes or layers of the Jaina exegesis, a very succinct account of which I have so far tried to give. But some of Alsdorf's observations in this regard, presented very concisely, most particularly drew my attentien. They are : Page #355 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ B. K. Khadabadi "To quote Schubring (Doctrines., p. 63): "As long as guch insertions were limited, the title of Nijjutti remained .... but when the size of the latter had swollen up owing to an extraordinary number of Bhasya verses, it was they who gave the whole work its title." What this explanation fails to make clear is the relation between Bhasya and Curni. According to Schubring, the Curni is a commentary on the Nijjutti as well as on the Bhasya, but in some cases the Curni follows immediately on the Nijjutti without a Bhasya in between, I am afraid these views are based on a misunderstanding of the true character of the Bhasya. My own opinion will be given with some reserve; it may have to be modified after a more extensive study of the whole Bhasya literature. But a comparison of the Vises = Avas yakabhasya with the Avas yaka-curni leaves to me no doubt that the former is a mere versification of the prose tradition represented by the latter. I believe that certainly in this case, and probably also generally, Tika and Bhasya represent two parallel developments: the Tika changes the Prakrit language of the Curni to Sanskrit but keeps to the prose form; but the Bhasya versifies the traditional prose yet keeps to the Prakrit language. It is perhaps not too bold to see in the Bhasya an attempt at the continuing, beside the new Sanskrit exegesis, the old Prakrit tradition in a new form. This new form may indeed have been suggested by the progressive insertion of Bhasya stanzes into the Nijjuttis; but that the Bhasya really marks a new departure is shown by its very size which is a multiple of that of the average Nijjutti; it is underlined by distinguishing the 257 Bhasya stanzas inserted into the Avasyaka-nijjutti as 'Mulabhasya' from the Vibes = Avai yaka-bhas ya of Jinabhadra. After going through this passage we find that Alsdorf proposes to present here (of course, with some reservation and subject to modifications after thorough investigation), his opinion about the true character of Bhasya mainly through the following lines of thinking : The comparison of the Vises = Avasyaka-bhasya with the Avasyak-curni undoubtedly shows that the former is a mere versification of the latter. (ii) Tika and Bhasya (the Avas yaka-tika and the Vises - Avas yaka-bhasya and also other Tikas and Bhasyas) represent two parallel developments :- (a) The Tika changes the Prakrit language of the Curni to Sanskrit but keeps to the prose form; (b) the Bhasya versifies the traditional prose but keeps to the Prakrit language. (iii) In the Bhasya one sees an attempt at continuing, besides the new Sanskrit exegesis, the old Prakrit tradition in a new form. Now examining the first line of thinking of Alsdorf's opinion, of course on the basis of my own comparison of the two works of the Jaina exegetical literature, namely the Vises - Avas yaka-bhasyale and the Avaf yaka-curni,17 I find that the learned Professor's attention has, some how, missed the narrative element which prominently appears in the Avas yaka-curni, wherein the kathana kas are narrated in beautiful Prakrit prose. On the other hand, the Vises- Avar yaka-bhagya is Page #356 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reflections on the Jaina Exegetical Literature satisfied by merely giving a very brief summary of the narratives, or rather by merely quoting the concerned Niryukti verses containing catch words of the respective narratives. For example, after mentioning in v. 3332 (which also happens to be the Niryukti verse No. 865) the eight names of religious heroes to be exemplified in respect of samayika, the Vifesa Avafyaka-bhasya disposes off the eight narratives in just 17 verses (3333-3349). The narrative of Cilatiputra is given here in just four verses (3341-3344), which, also, happen to be the Niryukti verses 872875.18 On the other hand, in the Avafyaka-curgi the tale of Cilatiputra is fully and beautifully told in Prakrit prose on pp. 497.498, and this prose narration is followed by the same Niryukti verses (872-875) by way of its closure with an apt quotation.10 Hence the Vifes Avafyaka-bhagya cannot be said to be a mere versification of the prose tradition represented by the Avafyaka-curni. Second, the Vifes - Avasyaka-bhasya comprises Mulabhasya, Bhasya and Visesabhasya verses. Such composition cannot be said to be a single (planned) attempt at representing the old prose tradition. Third, when we go to extend such comparison of Bhasya and Curni to some other similar cases, we find that the comparison does not stand at all The Dasaveyaliya-bhasa comprises 63 verses 30 and the Uttarajjhayana-bhasa comprises just 45 verses;21 how, then, can these stand comparison with the corresponding Curnis which are pretty bulky prose texts? Hence Bhasyas cannot be said to be mere versification of the prose tradition represented by Cornis.32 Further, we can also say that Tika and Bhasya cannot represent two parallel developments: Because, we have just seen in the foregoing how the Bhasya type of exegetical literature emerged and now it is essential to note that Tika changes. the Prakrit language of the Carni (already in prose) to Sanskrit as per the need of the time, which fact has been already indicated by the mixture of Sanskrit with Prakrit appearing in the Curai itself. And one's viewing in the Bhasya an attempt at continuing the old Prakrit tradition in a new form, applies only to the extraordinary commentaries, like the Vises Avasyaka-bhasya. 31 I find that the history of the genesis and growth of these four layers of exegetical literature that developed around the Jaina canonical texts, pemains condensed in a single aphoristic observation of Schubring 28: "The commentaries on the canonical texts represent the apprehensions of their time", on which I would com. ment as follows: An early nucleus of the canonical texts was provided with the Niryuktis-comprising memorial verses with catch words, leaving the other explanatory and instructional matter to the teacher. These Niryukti verses, along with the canonical Sutras, later required to be further explained, leading as it did to the composition of Bhasyas. Some Bhasyas, like the Avassaya (Avafyaka), the Kappa (Kalpa), and the Nisiha (Nifitha) had to indulge in further detailed explanations of philosophical, dogmatical and disciplinary matter and, consequently, they swelled to considerable size. The Cargis embarked on the prose style, almost assuming the written form for the old full oral exegetic tradition, which earlier was Page #357 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 32 B. K. Khadabadi maintained with the memorial verses containing catch words; but, as the same time, the Curnis indicated their ter: ptation to switch over to Sanskrit by partially ad. mitting Sanskrit into their regular Prakrit medium. The Tikas, then, fully realized this temptation of the Curnis, imbibing scholastic techniques of the Brahmanic Nyaya school and displaying them well in their commentarial efforts. After getting introduced fairly well to these four types of the Jaina exegetical literature, some interesting questions stand before us : Why do we have no Bhasya for every Niryukti ? Or, why Niryuktis like the Ayara and the Suyagada remained free from later additions and insertions of explanations ? Why some Curnis stand independent of Bhasya ? Why should a Bhasya, like that on the Dasave yalija (Dasavaikalika) comprise just 63 verses? We cannot bundle off all these and many such other questions by simply saying that all the exegetical works (in different layers too) have not come down to us. But we have to apply ourselves, first and foremost, to bringing out critical editions of the available exegetical works and to study them intensively, extensively, and comparatively, so that we may be able to answer all such questions and also know many new facts about and facets of the Jaina tradition, history, dogmatics, theology, philosophy, metaphysics and hence the Jaina contribution to Indian thought and literature. This would be possible only when we will have some Leumanns, in India and Japan, and of course in the West, who would produce scholarly studies like 'Ayara Literature', 'Dasaveyaliya literature', 'Nisiha Literature', etcetera.

Malvania. Useful discussions on the subject of Future Tirthamkaras have been provided to me by his undeservedly little known study of the Thanamga and Samavayamga Ahmedabad, 1955; in Gujarati). Moreover, in September 1981, in Ahmedabad, I had the good fortune to read with him the relevant portion of the palm-leaf manuscript of Bhadreavara's Kahavali which he had himself thoroughly analysed in a paper read at the first International Symposium on Jaina Canonical and narrative Literature (Strasbourg, France, 16-19 June 1981). I am happy to be able to include here some material from this text. 1. Data about Future Tirthamkaras : 1.1. Statements about the existence of Future Tirthamkaras; list material. 1.1.1. Canonical sources. 1.1.2. Later Svetambara lists, 1.1.3. Collation of the Svetambara data. 1.1.4, About the Digambara lists. 1.2. Narrative sources. 1.2.1. Narrative sources concerning, F. Ts' careers. 2. Ethical aspects connected with F. Ts. 2.1. Tirthamkarahood in the chain of rebirths. 2.2. Original context and later use of the Tirthamkaranamakarman notion. 3. Notes on Buddhist counterparts. Conclusion, 4. Synoptical chart. A symmetrical conception of Time lies in the background of the oldest Jaina ogical descriptions : on the one hand the sixfold descending half-cycles (Sa avasarpini Pk. ossappini), and on the other hand the future sixfold ascending halfcycles (Sa. utsarpini; Pk. ussappini) which endlessly "follow directly upon one another in unbroken succession" on the Wheel of Time. The "Great Men" of the former, among whom are Mahavira and the other Tirthamkaras who came before him, are fairly well-known from numerous Jaina sources of various types, and have for a long time aroused the interest of many scholars. In contrast, the "Universal History" of the coming age appears to have been comparatively neglected in modern studies in the belief that it is a mere repetition of the avasarpini one. Page #360 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthankaras of the Future I do not claim here to exhaust the subject; I shall mainly focus on data connected with the F. Ts, as they occupy a prominent position in the available sources, when compared to other categories of mahapurusas, viz. Cakravartins, Baladevas, Vasudevas and Prativasudevas 35 1. Data about F. Ts. : 1.1. Statements about the existence of F. Ts. utsarpini-mythology and lists of F. Ts. 1.1.1. Canonical sources will be reviewed first their collation may be of some help for the question can rightly be asked as to the antiquity of the concept of future Tirtharakaras in Jainism: do they form an original part of the Jaina mythology or are they a later addition, added for the sake of perfect symmetry in the description of the Universe? Though less important past Tirthankaras sometimes also have their place in the texts.... At an early stages, an indirect statement about the existence of 24 F. Ts. as a whole is to be found in the Viyahapannatti (5th Amga), in an old chapter belonging to the nucleus of the work (XX,8). It is put both in Gotama's and Mahavira's mouth: Jambuddive dive Bharahevasa agamessanam carima-Titthagarassa Kevaiyam kalam titthi anusvjjissai? Goyama, javaie namevaiyaim samkhejjaim agamessanam carima-Titthagarassa titthe anusajjissai (S. I, 805,3-5). How long will the Lore survive the twenty-fourth future Tirthankara? -The Lore will survive the twenty-fourth Tirthankara by the same definite number (of thousand of years] as...". While an extensive list of the 24 Ts' names from Rsabha to Mahavira has been supplied in a preceding passage of the Viy (XX, 8, 3a), not a single name is quoted in the present case at the sutra level. But no conclusion can be drawn from this fact. On the other hand, no place seems to be alloted to the F. Ts. in the debates about time-divisions put forward in the fifth Amga. The Ayaramgasutta (1, 4, 1, 1), an earlier part of the Canon, might suggest the idea that a complete Jaina mythology was fixed at a very early date: se bemi je ya aiya, je ya paduppanna, je ya agamissa arahanta bhagavanto, savve te evan aikkhanti, evam bhasanti, evam pannaventi, evam pari venti (S. I. 13,27-28). "The Arhats and Bhagavata of the past, present, and future, all say thus, speak thus, declare thus, explain thus."10 However, I would rather interpret these lines as a general utterance, as a standard stock-phrase to express totality11, insisting upon the everlasting character of the Page #361 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 36 Nalini Balbir Jinas' teachings12 ! cf. savve te). Concern with the effective existence of Jinas at a given time is not specially relevant in this dogmatical context (as is also shown by the Ayaramga epexegetical tradition, curni, followed by T): past and future Ts. are said to be infinite in number, as time has neither a beginning nor an endis. Thus, here, the number 24 does not apply to them just as it does not apply to the present Ts. who all together are alleged to be 17014. In contrast, detailed material regarding F. Ts. is included in the Samavayamga (4th Amga), the Thanamga (3rd Amga), and the Titthogali (Painna ? infra), viz, in the middle or later Canonical texts. The bulk of it is gathered in readymade lists which either supply only the F. Ts.' names or their names together with those of their previous souls, or these latter alone Canonical narrative documentation will be considered separately (1.2), The first fairly elaborate treatment of the utsarpini is to be found in the final portion of the Samavayamga (S. I. 38)-383): there the information is presented in tabular-form, in prose for the general outline and in verses (slokas, aryas) for the lists. It is the exact counterpart of the systematic exposition worked out in the case of avasarpini-Great Men, covering both the Bharata and Airavata Lands. Complete data, however, is not provided for all the headings introduced in the development (below). Thus, the general picture is as follows: A. List of the seven family-founders" (Pk, kulagara) 15 to be born in Bharata : SI, 381, 19-22* Than, S I, 281, 10-12.* List of the ten kulagaras to be born in Airavata : SI, 381, 22-24; the names are identical with those occurring in Than, SI, 313, 4-6, but the order is different. B. "Great Men'' of Bharata. 1. The 24 F. Ts. are dealt with under eight headings ("slots"): (1) their names, and (2) the names of their previous births are enumerated in full, in two independent and successive lists (SI, 381, 25-382,8*; see the chart, below (4); they will be discussed later on (1.1.3 After this the slots for their (3) fathers, (4) mothers, (5) first male disciples, (6) first female disciples, 7) first donor, (8) sacred tree, are not supplied with names (382, 8-11). 2. The 12 future Cakravartins: (1) the list of their names is given (382, 12-14*); whereas the lists of their (2) fathers. (3) mothers and (4) wives are not elaborated. 3, The 9 future Baladevas and Vasudevas (382,17-28). Their names are listed (21-23*), together with those of their enemies (padisattu, 382, 2627*). The other headings (mothers, fathers, previous births, etc.) are not detailed Page #362 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthamkaras of the Future . 37 C. "Great Men" of Airavata. For the F. Ts' names only are listed (S I, 382, 29-383,8*); the above headings are mentioned and also have to be applied to the other categories of mahapurusas (383, 8-14). Fragmentary but important information is contained in the ninth section of the Thanamga. The three main points are : (i) A first list records the names of nine souls contemporary with Mahavira who are destined to become Ts. in the future : samanassa nam bhagavao Mahavirassa titthamsi navahim jivehi n Titthagara-nama-gotte kamme nivvattie, tam jaha : (1) Seniena, (2) Supasenam, (3) Udaina, (4) Potfilenam anagarenam, (5) Dadhauna, (6) Samkhenam, (7) Sayaenam, (8) Sulasae saviyae, (9) Revaie (or 9) saviyae Revaie). (S I, 299, 7-9). Abhayadeva's T breathes life into these figures in various ways (ed. Agamodaya Samiti, p. 432b-433b). He merely points to their identities : (1) The king Srenika is well-known (infra 1.2); Suparsva is Mahavira's uncle.16 He relates short accounts in Sanskrit for the others (cf. 4 below), but in one case fails to do so : (5) Drdhayur apratitah. He warns against possible misunderstandings in the case of two characters bearing identical names : (4) Pottila of the Than seems to be different from Pottila of the Anuttarovavaiya-dasao (chap. 3). (ii) This is followed by the names of the nine souls who, according to the sutra, will attain final Siddhi in the utsarpini (S I, 299, 9-12); short stories in Sanskrit are handed down by Abhayadeva (T, p. 434a-b; cf. 4). .... (1) Kanhe Vasudeve, (2) Rame Baladeve, (3) Udae Pedhalaputte, (4) Potfile, (5) Sayaye gahavai, (6) Darue niyanthe, (7) Saccai niyanthiputte, (8) saviya-buddhe Ambade parivvayae, (9) ajja vi nam Supasa Pasavaccijja a gamessae ussappinie caujjaman dhamman pannavaitta sijjhihinti java antam kahinti. According to the T, however, some heroes will attain Tirthamkarahood, whereas others will reach Omniscience : etesu ca madhyama-Tirthakaratvenotpatsyante kecit, kecit tu kevalitpena - (p. 434b). Be that as it may, a comparison with the Samav, list (see 4) shows that except for Supasa, a disciple of Parava's disciple (T, 434b), the eight remaining characters do occur among those destined to become F. Ts. Thus, the traditions handed down by the third and fourth Amga, though embedded in different contexts, show a general consistency: 14 names, out of 24, are common to both texts. Two, Pottila and Sataka, occur twice in the Thanamga.17 (iii) Srenika's life as a F. T. (S I, 299, 13-302, 17): see 1.2.2. Finally, a general survey of utsarpini-mythology is found in the Titthogali, "The Degradation of Tirthas"18, a Prakrit work sometimes included among the Painnas. 19 According to Pandit D. D. Malvania, it must have been "completed Page #363 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 38 Nalini Balbir in 5th century of Vikrama era". 20 The Srenika-episode is alloted an important place (ga. 1025-1112): see 1.2.2. As in the Samav, lists of all the categories of mahapurusas are given. Differences between the two works mainly concern the marginal elements, i.e, the kulagaras and Airavata. A. Names of the seven kulagaras to be born in Bharata in the second utsarpini phase (ga. 1004-1006; Samav). The seven kulagaras of the Airavata (10071009; Samav : 10 kulagaras). Condition of the world at that time (1011 1023), B. Birth of Jinas, Cakrins and Dasaras (i. e. Vasudevas) in the third utsarpiniphase (1024ff). The 24 future Tirthamkaras of Bharata (1115-1121). Their names only are listed : see the chart. The 24 F, Ts. of Airavata (1122-1127; Samav in spite of common elements). The 12 Cakrins of Bharata and their treasures (nidhi): 1131-1146. The 9 Vasudevas and Prativasudevas of Bharata (1147-56). Thus, 54 mahapurusas in all. C. The fourth to sixth utsarpini-phases (1157-1171). Concern for exhaustiveness regarding time and space is apparent from the manner of exposition: the six periods of utsarpini are considered; although only the main Bharata and sometimes Airavata-Lands are detailed, care is often taken to state that the same things are also seen in the remaining ksetras. 21 1.1.2. Later Svetambara : cf. 4. F.Ts' names are enumerated in : (i) Nemicandra, Pravacanasaroddhara (11th cent. 22) ga. 293-295.2 3 They are inserted in an almost exhaustive survey of Ts from the point of view of both time and space. Thus : Ts, of Bharata (288-295) including the 24 T's. of the past (288-90), of the present (291-92) and of the future; Ts. of Airavata (296-303), of the present (296-99; cp. Samav, S I. 381, 13-19*) and of the future (299-302; cp. Samav, S I, 382,29-383,8*). (ii) Hemcandra, Abhidhanacintamani i, v. 53-56 (65-70).24 Their names along with those of their previous incarnations are recorded in the following works embedded in the context of general exposes of Jaina mythology of the future ages. The connection between both is explicitly stated by the use of ordinal numbers.

Ts.29 as well as entire passages occurring in the Apapabihatkalpa (on p. 556b), and the Samav (p. 557a). The Pravac is referred to as having identical contents : Pradacanasarodhare 'py evam drspate (but op. below). Where appropriate, f. Ts' names and those of their corresponding former births are accompanied with versions of the stories already known from Than T etc. (cf. 4). But no new narrative not already known from earlier sources is adduced. (viii) Stotra literature also hands down this type of double list based on one or the other of the above mentioned works : e. g. Bhavi-caturvimsati-Jinastapana in Sanskrit by Dharmaghosa-suri?0; avati covisi nu caityavandana 81 in Gujarati, etc. These hymns are naturally less numerous than those to the avasarpini-Ts. considered together or individually. 1.1.3. collation of the Svetambara data; notes about the chart (4).. The textual documentation regarding utsarpini-Ts. is undoubtedly cha racterized by variations and discrepancies, in spite of a general unity. The Jaina writers are fully aware of such disagreements. Actually the absence of a well established tradition, and the contradictions between treatises are adduced as justification for the future Jinas not being dealt with in detail : ete (i. e. Jinah) ca tathavidha-sampradayabhavat sastrantaraih saha visamvaditva ca na visesato vivstah (Pravac T, p. 112a) 32. They are not only noticed between different works, but in the case of samayeven within the same work. The Pravac T again takes note of it : evam agre 'pi nama-visaye yatra kva cit samavayangadibhir visamvado drsyate tatra matantaram avaseyam (p. 8la). Page #365 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Nalini Balbir On the other hand, it had already been underlined by A. Weber that, for the part concerned here, viz. the very last section of the Amga, the manuscripts considerably vary in the amount of data given38. I have not consulted any manus. cript. But the Samav is extensively quoted by later.authors who must have taken it as the standard because it was the only canonical source for F. Ts. Thus vari. ants affecting the Samav have also some bearing on them. The relevant portions as they are handed down in Siddhasena's T on Pravac (p. 81a) and the Lokaprakasa add to the available editions, viv. Suttagame (cf. 1.1.1); ed. with the T of Abhayadeva who remains completely silent on F. Ts (Bombay, 1918, p. 153b-154a); Ladnun ed.-- Angasuttani, ed. Muni Nathmal vol. I. p. 651-652 is convenient as it contains variant readings. From F. T. I to 11 all agree except for the name of F. T. 6: the option between Devasguya and Devagutta in the Samav is also reflected in the later lists. In contrast, two traditions are available from F. T 12 to 24, depending on the interpretation of the expression savvabhavavia Jine. They are bracketed together on the chart: (7) Udae, (8) Pedhalaputte ya, (9) Potrile, (10) sattakitti ya, (11) Munisuvvae ya araha. (12) savdabhavaviu Jine, (13) Amame, (24) Anantavijae iya. (Samav, S I, 381, 27*) In order to get the total required number of 24 F. Ts it has to be taken here as the proper name of a Jina. However, in the Lokaprakasa quotation, alone, it has to be understood as a general qualification applied to the Arhats, for a new name, Bhadda, has been introduced as the F. T. 24 : ....(11) Munisuvvate ya araha, savva-bhava-vidu Jinel (12) Amame.../ (24) Bhadde ti ya (Samav as quoted Lokap. 567a, 3-5). To some extent, the problem is solved in a similar way in the Titthogali by the addition of Tiyya, or Tivvaya, as F. T. 24, but this name is not transmitted in any other text 84. Be that as it may, this fact certainly accounts for disagreements regarding the serial-number i. e. the position occupied by the F. Ts. in the lists: e. g. F. T. Amama is No. 12 or 13: the contradiction is pointed out in the Lokaprakasa (557a, 10ff.); T. 17 is Samadhi or Citragupta, etc. Individual narrative accounts, which I shall try to analyze (1.1.2), will help to ascertain to what extent these differences are rooted in the literary tradition or which is the prevalent trend. On the other hand, there is a clear demarcation-line between two groups of the texts at the level of the F. Ts' former lives : on one side we have the Samav, Pravac and Apapabihatkalpa, and on the other, the Kahavali, Trisasti and Lokaprakasa; hence the order followed in the chart in spite of the chronology : See, for instance, Pottila against Udayi in No. 335; Kekasi and Reyali as Nos, 9 and 10. Page #366 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthamkaras of the Future 41 1.1.4. About the Digambara lists of F. Ts. They are included in a general picture of the utsarpini-mythology. The texts referred to are : (i) Yativssabha, Tiloyapannatti, and old Prakrit cosmological treatise "to be assigned to some period between 473 A. D. and 609 A. D."98. : IV, v. 1579-81; 1584cd-158737. (ii) Gunabhadra, Uttarapurana LXXVI, v. 471-475; 476-80, in Sanskrit38, and (iii) Puspadanta, Mahapurana CII, 6-7, in Apabhramsa, both go back to the 9th-10th centuries A. D. All three composition list both the F. Ts' names and those of their former births in independent lists. In contrast, only their names appear in : (iv) Jinasena, Harivamsapurana40 : LX, v. 558-562, in Sanskrit. (v) Nemicandra, Trilokasara+1, ga. 873-875, in Prakrit. (vi) Sricandra, Kahakosu43 : XV, 11, 1-11, in Apabhramsa. As a fairly convenient synoptical table collecting the data from these works has been drawn up in the Jainendrasiddhantakosa+8, I shall restrict myself to a few observations and only append Gunabhadra's lists which have not been taken into account there44 (cf. 4). As far as the lists of avasarpini-Ts, are concerned, the Svet. and Dig. traditions agree on the whole (but cf. fn. 45). The situation seems more blurred in the case of the F. Ts. What can be observed is: a perfect correspondence between the two traditions from. F. T. 1 to 4; then, in spite of slight variants regarding the forms of the names, a fairly good correspondence for the F. Ts, names; but considerable discrepancies regarding their previous existences; this is partly due to the fact that Tirthamnkarahood is strictly out of question for a woman according to the Dig45, whereas at least three of them are definite in the Svet, sources : Rohini, Sulasa, Revati48. Anyway, the Uttarapurana stands closer to the Sam av than to the other Svet. lists. On the other hand, new information is brought by the Dig. texts. For instance the size and life-span of the first and last T. to-be are sometimes added : respectively they are of 7 cubits and more than 116 years+7; 1000000 purva and 500 dhanus. Care for throughness occasionally leads to the statement that "there is no teaching concerning the heights and life-spans of the others": e. g. uccheh'aapahudisu sesanam n'atthi amha uvaeso (Tiloyap. IV. 1583)48. A special position is assigned to F. T. I, Srenika-Mahapadma, who is said to have been the son of the last kulagara, according to Tiloyap. IV. 1578 : Page #367 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 42 Nalini Balbir ta-kkale Titthayara caudisa havanti; tana padhama-Jino antilla-kulakara-sudo Videha-vatti tado hodi. This statement is confirmed on the narrative side by the Kahakosu (XV, 11, 1-2)4 9 and the Bshatkathakosa (No. 55, v. 311)50: astavimsardha-(i. e. 14 kulagaras yuktasya bhoginah kulakarinah Padmadipungavasyayam bhavisyati sutah parah. 1.2. Narrative sources. 1.2.1 Narrative sources about F. Ts' previous births. The most specific characteristic of the F. Ts. is that they are "linked up with the past (... through) those personalities in whom they were once incarnated."62 I deal with them here and shall start with the analysis of Srenika and VasudevaKrsna episodes. Both heroes are jointly mentioned in a Prakirnaka-verse as people who became F. Ts. because they were possessed of right faith, though it was not accompanied by conduct : suddhe sammatte avirao oi ajjei Titthayara-namam jaha a gamesi-bhadda Harikulapahu-Seniaiya (Bhattaparinna, ga. 67 )58. In both cases the narrative patterns follow a similar course, irrespective of the version (Svet. or Dig.)54. For their descriptions, the basic text referred to here is the Canonical Antagadadasao 5 about Krsna55. It can be summarized thus : two characters are engaged in a dialogue : a king (Kssna; Srenika) and a Saint (Aristanemi; Mahavira). (i) The Saint's prediction to the king 56: he will be reborn as a hellish being as the result of bad karman. kalamase kalam kicca taccae Valuya-phabhas pud havle ujjalle narae neraiyattae uvavajjihisi (S. I. 1173, 30-1174,1). (ii) The king's fear and despondency. tae nam Kamhe Vasudeve araho Aritthanemissa antie eyam artham socca nisamma ohaya java jhlyai (S. I. 1174, 1-2). Possible variations : the king is surprised that such a destiny can be his and would expect the Saint to be able to modify it, but the karmic law is all-pervading and cannot be escaped : e. g. Trisasti, trsl. vol. VI, p. 238, following Avasyakatika and curni for Srenika; Akhyanakamanikosa p. 122, ga, 54 for Kisna. (iii) Relief given by the Saint: the next existence of the king will be that of a future T. Curiously enough, this stage does not appear in the Avasyakaprose commentaries about Srenika57, though the relevant niryukti verse (1158) states that he will become a Jina in the coming age : Page #368 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthamkaras of the Future 43 na Senio asitaya bahu-ssuo, na yavi Pannatti-dharo na vayago. so agamissae Jino bhavissai, samikkha pannai, varam khu damsanam. Thus also in a parallel Bhagavati-Aradhana gatha introduced in a similar dogmatical discussion about damsana / sammatta 58 : as a matter of fact, Srenika as a F. T. is common to both the Dig. and Svet. traditions (see 1.1.4 and 4.). Now, at this level (iii), additional precise details i. e, serial number and/or name of the F. Ts, are optionally introduced. It can then be asked whether they are consistent with the data collected in the lists, whether they contradict them or whether they happen to reflect the discrepancies. Thus, most often with a minimum amount of detail we have : e. g. agamissae ussappinie tumae (i, e. (Srenika) Titthayarena hoyavvam ti (Cauppanna, p. 320, lines 18-20 and supra). With an intermediate or a maximum amount of information, in which case disagreements may arise between the versions, we have for instance : jamha aham iva (sic. i. e. Nemi) tumam avi (i. e. Kssna) vara-kevalanana-damsana. paivo (...) terasamo Titthayaro hohisi tam muqi-sahassa-pariyario (Akhyanak., p. 122, ga. 59ab; 60ab) but : ...ih'eva Jambuddive Bharahe vase agamesae ussappinie Pundesu (Punne su) janavaesu Sayaduvare barasame Amame namam araha bhavissasi (i. e.Krsqa) read in Antag. 5 SI, 1174, 5ff.) also corresponds to the Uttarajjhaya tradition 59 : Baladevo....) barasama-Amama-Titthayara-Kanha Jiva-titthe (sijjhihi), and seems to represent the prevalent tradition. This disagreement regarding the order (12/13) reflects the one testified to by the lists (cf 4): T. 12 Annama-Vasudeva in Kahavali, Hemacandra, Lokaprakasa, but T. 13 in Samav, Pravac 1. Other such examples could be adduced. I refer only to Revati, a laywoman contemporary with Mahavira who offered medicine to cure him. (i) She is not considered as destined to be a F. T. in the accounts of her life given in the Viyahapannatti XV (SI, 730-732) and the Trisasti (trsl. vol. VI, p. 227-228). (ii) Her story is told by Abhayadeva 7 (p. 433ab) ad ?han 9 (cf. 1.1.1.): the sutra has stated that she will become a F. T.; (iii) The story is retold in the Lokaprakasa (p. 555b-556a); it is now embedded in the general frame of the 24 F. Ts. : she is the 16th F. T. Citragupta arjitaneka-su-ksta-sancaya Revati tu sa sodasas Tirthakrd-bhavi Citragupto 'bhidhanatah'. Page #369 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 44 Nalini Balbir (iv) Parallel versions occurring in dana-collections show the existence of disagreements as Revati becomes the 17th F. T. named Samadhi"*. "In contrast, may be by chance all the evidence I could trace is consistent in the case of Sulasa, also a laywoman of Mahavira's time she is a F. T. according to Than T (p. 433a), the 15th F. T. Nimmama in the Prakrit Akhyanakamanikosa (p. 97, ga. 52) or in the Apabhramea version of the Mulasuddhiprakarana. Thus :" (tatto) cavittu agaminle Titthayaru bhaviss" ussappigle panarasamau namim Nimmamattu, apparimiya-pana-caritta-sattu (p. 56. 5-6). Statements presenting heroes as F. Ts. were available from the tradition; they could freely be used by the Mediaeval popular literature if necessary to fulfill the requirements of the preaching monks: Revati is a F. T. in works praising charity, but not in biographies focussing on Mahavira; Ambada is the 22nd F. T. in a story where he is the main figure", but not in the verisons mentioned above where he appears as a co-hero together with Sulasa. In most cases, however, narrative sources are too fragmentary to allow any conclusion regarding possible discrepancies as they do not mention the T's name or serial number;65 e. g. Baladeva is only a. F. T. in the Digambara Uttarapurana and Mahapurana (cf. 4.). 1.2.2. Narrativa sources about F. Ts' careers. name All the stories which have been considered in 1.2.1 end with the F. Ts' and/or serial number, at most, I now come to the F. Ts' lives in the utsarpini age. Descriptions are available in the case of the Ist. F. T. Srenika-Mahapadma. They are found in Than 9 (S. I, 299, 13-302, 17), and Titthogali, ga. 1025-1112. The Lokaprakaia (552b, 22-553b. 19) is a late Sanskrit version which does not provide any new information; the Prakrit account of the Apapabrhatkalpa is reduced to a few lines; hence they will generally be omitted here. The Than episode in the usual stereotyped Canonical prose is told by Mahivira himself and presented as a prophecy : esa nam, ajjo, Sepie raya Bimbhisare....uvavajjihiti (299, 13-14). It fixes the pattern of all future Ts' biographies and includes the following ele. ments; in the coming utsarpini, rebirth in the country of the Pundas in the city Satadvara at the foot of Mt. Vaitadhya as Mahapadma, the son of the kulagara Sammuci and his wife Bhadra""; birth-festivities and the ceremony of name-giving; coronation and life as a king also known as Devasena and Vimalavahana; visit of Page #370 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthamkaras of the Future 45 two gods and renouncing of the world; upasargas; Omniscience, conduct as a monk, stated in the phraseology used for Mahavira (Kalpasutra; ubi alia); number of ganadharas; life-spans in the various stages of life. Thus this account strikingly lacks any originality or individuality. On the contrary, great care is taken to emphasize the identity of what Mahapadma's career will be with what Mahavara's has been70 ; mae..., tvam eva Mahapaume vi araha (S. I, 301, 18-12, etc.). mama nava gana, igarasa ganahara, evam eva Mahapaumassa di araho nava gana igarasa ganahara bhavissanti (S I, 302, 8-9). aham tisam vasaim agara-vasa-majjhe vasitta munde bhavitta....., evam eva Mahapaume vi araha tisam vasaim.... (S I, 302, 10-14); etc. The whole set of equivalences is summarized at the end of the legend : jam-sila-samayaro araha Titthamkaro Mahaviro ta-ssila-samiyaro hoi u araha Mahapaume (S I, 302, 16-17).71 In the Titthogali this tendency goes still further. Pauma's life is closely inspired by the Avasyaka-niryukti section dealing with Mahavira, to the extent that (exceptionally) "Vira" is used instead of Pauma?2, or that Yasoda is also the name of his wife78 ! This is equally shown through the numerous verse-correspondences between the two works?4 : Titthogali 1026 = bhasya-verse 46; 1027, 1029 = 47; 1033abL61; 1040=63 1046-1048 - 69-71; 1049-50=76-77; 1052-79;1056=niryukti-verse 460; 1057= bhasya-verse 81; 1058 -83; 1059=84; 1060 = 82; 1061 = 85; 1064-68= 86-90; 1073-85=92-105; 1087bcd=106bcd; 1088-1091 = 107-110; 1093PSniryukti-verse 537; 1094ab=538ab; 1097-1098=539-540; 1099=592. Thus, similarities are more important than the few minor differences : the transfer of the embryo is not mentioned in the case of F. T. 175; but he is said to have entrusted the kingdom to his son, the prince Nalinakumara when leaving the secular world (ga. 1069 ff. ), this detail is unknown in Mahavira's legend. The Amamasvamicarita, composed in sam. 1252=A. D. 1195, is a complete individual account about the twelfth F. T., who was formerly Ktsna. His life. sketch is not different from Mahapadma's as can be deduced from the analysis given in the Jaina Sahitya ka Bshad Itihasa (Varanasi 1973, vol. VI. p. 127-128): Birth; childhood; marriage; coronation; diksa; Omniscience; samavasarana; Teaching; ganadharas; Liberation. To conclude this survey of the narrative data (1.2 and see 4.): two groups stand out of the 24 figures destined to be F. Ts. A few of them are really living figures, e. g. Revati, Sulasa, Ambada, all contemporary with Mahavira. Some do not seem to have reached the level of an independent existence in texts other than Page #371 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 46 Nalini Balbir those devoted to future Tirthamkarahood, e.g. Udavi (No. 3); a Sankha No. 6), Sataka (No. 10), Satyaki (No. 11) ... : but who can be sure that they have exhausted the post-Canonical story-literature ? Srenika, an historical figure, also of Mahavira's time, and Krsna, a pan-Indian character, represent an outstanding pair. The others are mere names, not gifted with any personality, and even if they are not totally unknown, there is not sufficient evidence to identify them. 2. Ethical aspects connected with F. Ts. 2.1. Tirthamkarahood in the chain of rebirths. (Future) Tirthamkarahood is one of the numerous destinies offered to human beings : I shall here underline its specific position in the chain of incarnations, then the means of attaining it. A direct connection between rebirth in the hell(s) followed by a rebirth as a future T. appears from the narrative scheme drawn for the Srenika and Kssnaepisodes (stages i and iii, above 1.2.1.): after their lives in the Ratnaprabha or Valukaprabha-hells, both heroes will become the 1st and 12th or 13th F. Ts. On the other hand, besides the names of Dasarasiha (i. e. Klsma) and Seniya, the Avasyaka-niryukti (ga. 1160) also mentions Pedhalaputta and Saccai who all underwent a low birth (aharam gaim gaya) because of their lack of conduct, though they were possessed of right faith : they are also among the Ts. to be (cf. 4). Now, these facts are perfectly consistent with the sections of the Svet. and Dig. theoretical books devoted to the narakas. Considering the issues (antakiriya) of hellish beings as Ts. Cakravartins, Baladevas or Mandalikas, the Pannavana (4th Uvanga; S II, 463, 8-23) admits the possibility of reaching the status of a T. for those beings coming from the first hell (Ratnaprabha) who will have acquired a T's karman (2.2, Titthagara-nama-goyaim kammaim baddhaim, putthaim....). Beings coming from the second and third hells are in the same category : evam Sakkarappabha java Valuyappabha-pudhavi-neraiehimto Titthagarattam labhejja (S II, 463. 18-19) ossibility is denied to those coming from the last four hells[463, 19-23)** Similar statements can be found in Dig. sources, for instance in Jinasena, Harivamsapurana IV, 382 : tstiyayah (i. e. ksiti-) dvitiyayah prathamayasca nihsstah Tirthakrttvam labhetapi dehi dars ana-suddhitah."? 2.2. Original context and later use of the Tirthamkara-nama-karman idea. It is well-known that Tirthamkarahood is gained through a special type of karman (Trthamkaranamakarman-Tnk) for which twenty components(sthanakas) are Page #372 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthamkaras of the Future 47 recorded in the Svet. texts and sixteen in the Dig. 78 : on the whole, they summarize the essentials of morality or good conduct : charity, compassion, self-control, right faith, etc. Their enumeration appears to be closely related to the avasarpini-mythology and they represent, as it were, an attempt to give a rational account of the T's' existence on earth, in accordance with the law of karman and rebirth. In the Avasyakaniryukti, for instance, the Tnk notion is adduced as a theoretical excursus iga. 179-184) justifying the passage from Rsabha's last previous birth to the present one when he will become a T.79 The same verses come again in Mahavira's case (ga. 451-456 = 179-184) before the account of his birth in Devananda's family. They are also quoted in the Nayadhammakahao 880 to account for Mahabala's rebirth as a god then as Malli. And Hemacandra proceeds likewise for each of the twenty-four Ts. through stereotyped recurring phrases (Trisasti, ed. III, 1,100; etc.) 81 Though the Tnk-causes do not occur explicitly in the context of utsarpini, they probably have to be applied there also. On the other hand, the later literature shows an extension of the field of Tirthampkarahood, as is seen from the Mediaeval Vimfatisthanakacarita (or Vicaramotasarasamgraha) by Jinaharsa82 : this work is based on the twentyfold enumeration of the Avasyaka-niryukti. A few introductory verses detail each of the terms; ad hoc stories, all built on the same pattern, unavoidably end with the remark that the heroes will become Ts. in their third rebirths. Whether a name is given to them or not, they have absolutely no link with any of the Ts. found in the mythological lists.88 Here, the intention is merely to illustrate the idea that any layman who observes one or more of the sthanas (.e. one of the many aspects of the Jaina ethics recommended to him) can attain Tirthamkarahood. Thus, through a shift of emphasis, this notion is adapted to the daily didactic purposes of the monks. It is an element of the "marvellous" appealing atmosphere that they have to present to the layman as a possible reward for his good conduct. This is equaliy confirmed by the late religious popular literature in Gujarati and the so-called visa sthanaka ni caityavandand stuti (git, duha, etc.), hymns extolling the "twenty causes". 84 3. Notes on Buddhist counterparts. Theravada Buddhism as handed down in the Pali Canon gives only limited information and refers to Maitreya as the unique coming Buddha who will renew the Teaching(r)4 (see below (i) and (ii)). But interesting elements may be gleaned from later Theravada texts such as the Anagatavamsa85 and the Dasabodhisattuppattikatha R6 (ca. 14th cent. A. D.) which both list the same ten Future Buddhas, as well as from the Mahayana tradition which is characterized by the absence of any limitation in their number, Page #373 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 48 Nalini Balbir I here propose to review some Buddhist parallels to the Jaina facts surveyed above and to underline the similarities in the ways of presentation, independently of any historical or doctrinal interpretation, (i) Use of the compound atita-anagata.paccuppanna-applied to the Arhats as a whole : e.g. Digha-Nikaya XVI (ed. Pali Text Society, vol. II, 83, 6-7=XXVIII, vol. III, 100,23-24; also II, 82,29-30=III, 100, 16-17 : Na kho me, bhante, atitanagata-paccuppannesu arahantesu Sammasambuddhesu ceto-pariya-nanam atthi. "Lord no knowledge have I concerning the mind of past, future and present Arhats Awaked ones" (RHYS DAVIDS' trsl.), Cp. above 1.1.1. Ayaramga I, 4, 1, 1. (ii) Birth of the future Buddha Maitreya is predicted by Gautama Buddha : cf. Digha-Nikaya XXVI (vol. III, 75, 30-76. 21): Metteyyo nama Bhagava loke uppajjissati arahan samma-sambuddho .... (76, 1-2). Emphasis is laid on the identity between the life-patterns of both : e.g. so dhammam desissati-adi-kalyanam .... seyyatha pi 'ham etarahi dhammam desemi adi-kalyanam .... (ibid., 76, 13-16; etc.). cp. in Jainism 1.2.2. the Srenika-Mahapadma episode. (iii) With the prophecies of rebirth as future Tirthamkaras told by a T. (above 1.2.1 and fn. 56), compare, in the Mahayana tradition, the Buddha Tatha. gata announcing to his disciples their future destinies as Buddhas : e.g. Saddharmathundarika, chap. VI, p. 142 ff.; chap. VIII, p. 193 ff.; chap. IX, p. 206 ff. (tral. H. KERN, Sacred Books of the East, vol. XXI); the Encyclopaedia of Buddhism vol. III, p. 360 refers to an Avadanasataka chapter entirely devoted to such predictions; etc. (iv) Story-pattern in the Dasabodhisattuppattikatha : the adventures of the heroes in their present births are told at length; they acquired merit mostly through their generosity. In contrast, the accounts of their careers as future Buddhas are very meagre and generally only mention a few details such as their names, physical measurements, life-span. But, as has been rightly noticed by Venerable H. Saddhatissa (p. 7), there is no elaboration of them as there is for the past Buddhas87 in the Buddhavamsa text and commentary. Thus, for instance : evam, Sariputta, imina dana-phalena ca Todeyya-brahmano anagate Narasiho nama Samma-sambuddho bhavissati (chap. VIII, 151, 70); etc. In the Mahayana tradition, see Saddharmapundarika, chap. VI, VIII, IX, .... Cp. the Jaina stories ad 1.2.1 and the Vimsatisthanakacarita (2.2). Unfortunately, I have not come across any kathakosa collecting the stories relevant to the 24 figures occurring in the Jaina lists. Page #374 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Tirthankaras of the Future (v) The Dasabodhisattuppattikatha shows that persons said to become future Buddhas belong to two categories: historical characters who were alive in the Buddha's time, known to the Pali Canon, and others who are mere names on which stories have been hung. A comparable distinction appears from the collation of the Jaina data (p. 16). Pasenadi, the king of Kosala contemporary with Gautama Buddha will be the Buddha Dhammaraja (Dasabodhi., chap. III): cp. king Srenika contemporary with Mahavira. 49 (vi) The Tirthamkara-nama-karman notion of Jainism (cf. 2.2) has rightly been compared to the Buddhist Paramitas : cf. P. S. JAINI, Tirthankara-prakrti and the Bodhisattva-Path, Journal of the PTS IX, 1981, p. 98 ff. (96-104). The contexts where both concepts are adduced are also similar: cf. 2.2. about the connection between the twenty sthanakas and the Ts: incarnations in Jainism. In the later Buddhist tradition as recorded in the Buddhavamsatthakatha", the Buddha-karaka-dhammas which are defined as the ten (or thirty) Perfections leading to Buddhahood are mentioned on the occasion of the twenty-five Buddhas' incarnations, (including Gotama): e. g. 141, 28-142,5 paramiyo paretva Tusitapure nibbattitva.... Tusita kaya cavitva....kucchismim patisandhim ganhi; ibid. 78,35;79,9; 160, 19-26; etc. 272, 33-36. Conclusion. The interest in future Prophets which is seen to have thus developed is but natural in doctrines where time is thought of as evolving in cycles as is wellknown, similar developments also took place in Hinduism (Visquism) where Kalkin, the future Visnu's avatara, is conceived as destined to put an end to the Kali-Yuga90. The Jaina teachings and stories concerning the destinies of Future Tirthankaras make it clear that they are closely linked with the theories of samsara and karman; there, the Messianic aspect is not so important as the individual improvement which everybody has to attain for himself. The Tirthankaranamakarman makes it possible, while the idea of a unique Saviour would be,so-to-say, unacceptable. 4. Synoptical chart of data about Future Tirthamkaras. N. B.

Conversely, narrative literature gives information about heroes to whom rebirth as T., Cakravartin etc. is predicted, though they do not occur in the lists : e. g. Rama's prophecy about the future destinies of Sitendra, Ravana and Laksmana (Trisasti, trsl. vol. IV, p. 351) : the first will be a Cakravartin, the two others T., after three births; cp, Svayambhus; deva, Paumacariu (ed. H. C. Bhayani, Bombay, 1960, vol. III): XC, 9, 4 9, 10; 10, 6. See 1.1.1. 552b, 25, a quotation attributed to the Nandivstti mentions an interval of 84007 years and 5 months between Vira and Mahapauma : culasi vasa-sahassa, vasa satt' eva pamca masa ya Vira-Mahapaumanam antaram eyam viyanahi. iti Nandi-vrttau. I am not able to trace this verse in the text itself, but it was possibly well-known as it occurs almost identically in the Titthogali ga. 1039. The rebirth in the third hell (see 1.2.1) comes first, but is not staged in a dialogue : Than (S I, 299, 13-16); Titthogali, ga. 1031-32. Sammui as one of the 10 kulagaras, Than (S I, 313,6), but not among the seven of Samav (S I, 381, 20-21). It is strange that Srenika-Mahapadma's genealogy, also given Trisasti (trsl. vol. vi, p. 347) exactly reproduces what is prophesied by Mahavira for Gosala's future births : Trisasti vol. vi, p. 223, following Viyahapannatti xv (S I, 733,28ff.; Deleu, p. 220); also PrPN p. 568, s. 0.9 Mahapauma.

S. Upasak The Isibhasiyai (Rsibhasitani : c. 2nd-1st cent B. C.) is the only Prakrta Jaina text which incorporates the sayings of some 44 (or 45) seers most of whom, from the later Jaina standpoint, are definitely heretics, or at best are those that belonged to contemporary non-Jaina religious folds. These saints are designated as 'Isi' (Rsi, though not in the same connotation as given in the Brahmanical texts), in this ancient Jaina work. They, moreover, and invariably, are called 'Araha' (Arhat), the two honorotic terms are used there as synonyms. "Isi' is a person gifted with special spiritual powers of insight and intuition, a holy man, an anchorite. In Pali Buddhist texts, 'Isi' occurs as a synonym of "Paccekabuddha," and probably was used in the same sense as implied in the Jaina texts. Paccekabuddha attains 'enlightenment' by himself, without any guidance or help. of a teacher like the Buddha, but does not indulge in proclaiming and propaga. ting the Truth' and so does not found his 'Sangha' or sect and hence had no following. It appears that, in the Buddhist texts, the Buddha, the Paccekabuddha and the Arhat as terms were somewhat more frequently employed than in the Jaina texts where the term muni became popular for a saint, although all these. terms were known to both the branches of the Sramanic culture. Undoubtedly, the term Paccekabuddha has been exclusively used by the Buddhists in early times, the Jainas seemingly adopted it later. Buddhist tradition the Paccekabuddha was held in very high esteem and is mentioned along with the Buddha and the Arhat. During the Kusana period, in the early centuries of the Christian era, when the worship of the Buddha became more popular by his thorough deification, the worship of Paccekabuddha also became popular. In the Taxila Scroll Inscription of a Kusana king (year 136 / A, D. 79), exhumed from Dharmarajika stupa along with the relics of the Buddha, the worship of Paccekabuddha is recorded together with the Buddha and the Arhat". The Isibhasiyai is a text in which, as the later Jaina commentaries explain (pointed out also by Walther Schubring), the term 'Isi' is used in the sense of Pratyekabuddha, although in the text the term Pratyekabuddha never figures; instead, we largely find Arahat, and sometimes not even 'Isi' for a saint. For instance, Satiputta (No. 38) is designated as Buddha (Satiputtena Buddhena Arahata buitam). At most of the places in the Isibhasiai, the assertions of the saints. are described as....arahata isina buitam, thus specifically calling them both 'Isi' and Arahata (not Pratyekabuddha). The text also refers to an Arahata and 'Isi (No. 21) who is described as taruna (young) in age and who was the son of a middle Page #394 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Isibhasiyai and Pali Buddhist Texts-A Study class householder (gahapatiputta) suggesting that usually the isis were of advanced age and hailed from the upper class of the society, mostly Brahmanas and Ksatriyas. Four Brahmana parivrajakas (non-sramanic wanderer-ascetic), namely Pingala (No. 32), Isigiri (Rsigiri) (No. 34), Sirigiri (Srigiri) (No. 37) and Divayana (Dvipayana) (No. 40) are mentioned in the text; while three of them are designated as Arahat and Isi, Isigiri (No. 34) is called only Arahata. Buddhist Influence As we earlier have seen, the Isibhasiyai includes the assertions of a number of sages which definitely are either of Buddhist or Brahmanic folds. A number of its verses are parallel to early Pali Buddhist texts, some of them being almost exactly the same, both in general form and content. This feature of the text points to its being very ancient, probably soon after some of the more ancient texts of the Pali Tipitaka. The inclusion of the sages not belonging to the Jaina, leaves no doubt that the 'sages' or seers' in true sense were equally revered and honoured by other religionists also, notwithstanding their philosophical differences or ecclesiastical and religious practices. The Isibhasiyat in this respect is an illustrious text, indeed very important for the cultural study of ancient India, revealing as it does the cultural commonality shared by all the religionists of that period. Saintly personages in ancient India were held in the highest esteem by the society and they commanded the utmost respect. This fact is known from several sources, but mainly from literature. 69 The account of these Isis in the text is called Ajjhayana (Skt. Adhyayana) or 'study' of the philosophical views of the sages. However, neither chronological order nor sect-wise grouping can be noticed in the text. It contains rather an arbitrary selection and equally arbitrary ordering of the Isis. The very first Ajjhayana is about Narada. Narada is a popular "Devarsi" in the Brahmanical mythology; in the Pali text also, the personages bearing the name Narada are equally popular. Pali texts mention as many as 18 persons with this appelation. It is difficult to ascertain the identity of the Nafada of the Isibhasiyai with any found in the Pali texts. There is one Thera Narada in the Samyutta-Nikaya (II, 115) who declares himself as being aware of the nature of Nibbana, but he is not an Arakanta. The ninth out of the twenty-four Buddhas was also called by this name (but not Paccekabuddha). Two sages called 'Narada' are mentioned in the Jatakas. One is described as a "sage', brother of Kaladevala and pupil of Jotipala in the Indriya Jataka (No. 433) and the other is an ascetic, son of sage Kassapa who finds mention in the Cullanarada Jataka (No. 220). Obviously, the Isibhasiai text may have refered to any of these sages having this name, but probably not that of the Brahmanical mythology, as we do not find any hint toward him in the Iribhasiyai. Page #395 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ C. S. Upasak The second saint of the text is Vajjiputta, who is both Arahat and Isi. He is said to have advocated the law of kamma (karma). It is kamma which determines. the future birth on the basis of the deeds done in the past. Of the kammas, moha (delusion) is the cause of all the sufferings. As the name suggests, he belonged to the Vajji (Vatsi) clan of Vesali (Vaisali), and probably a person of some standing. In the Pali Buddhist texts, two Vajjiputta Theras figure, who probably represent one and the same person (Cf. DPPN Vol. II, p. 810, 811). He is called there an Arahat. In the Dhammapadatthkatha (III, 406ff.) he is called 'Raja'; probably, then, he belonged to the princely family of Vesali. The Isibhasiyai perhaps refers to this very Vaijiputta Thera of the Buddhist text. He may be regarded as the one who was the head of the Vrjjiputras, as Schubring chooses to describe (p. 4). But Vrijiputra school of thinking flourished somewhat later, probably later than our text. 70 The name of another sage, Devila (No. 4) of the text figures in the Pali text as Devala and also as Asita Devala (DPPN vol. I, p. 70). And if we take Devila as Devala, we are reminded of a sage who visited the court of Suddhodana, the father of Gautama Buddha, and who prophesied that the child Siddhartha will become a 'Cakravrtti' if he chose to be the ruler, and, if a recluse, would become a Buddha. He is said to have attained various miraculous powers, iddhis (riddhis). Because of his dark complexion and probably to distinguish him from other sage of the same name, he is known as Asita Devala or Kaladevala (DPPN. Vol. 1, p. 208). Another sage by the same name is known from the Dhammapadatthakatha (I. 32). He lived in the Himalayas and once, while he was staying with another ascetic named Narada under the same roof, the latter was trodded over in the night: (Cf. DPPN. II, p. 1116). A Paccekabuddha with this name is mentioned in the Theragatha Afthakatha (1. 368), At least five persons of this name are found in different Pali texts (Cf. DPPN. Vol. I, p. 1116), and it appears that the Isibhasiyai refers to any of them, very probably to Asita Devala. One other saintly personage referred to in the Isibhasiyai is Ang risa Bharaddaya (Angirasa Bharadvaja) (No. 4) who is mentioned several times in the Pali texts as one of the ancient Vedic seers. (DPPN. Vol. I, p. 20). A Paccekabuddha bearing that name is also mentioned in the Majjhimanikaya (III, 70) for instance. Even the Buddha is called Ang rasa several times in the Pali texts (Cf. DPPN. Vol. 1, p. 20). Another ascetic by this name occurs also in the Jataka (IV. 99) in a list of eleven ascetics who were born in the heaven Brahmaloka. p. 20). The Isibhasiyai probably refers to the Vedic Rsi by this name. (Cf. DPPN. I, An Arahanta Bakkula Thera is referred to in the Pali text who got the initiation at the age of eighty and became emancipated only within eight days after hearing the preachings of the Buddha. Vakkalaciri (No. 6) of the Isibhasiyai is probably different from Bakkula Thera of Pali text, Vakkalaciri probably was a seer of the Brahmanical tradition who used to clad himself with the cloth made of Page #396 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Isibhasiyai and Pali Buddhist Texts-A Study 71 bark (valkala). Mendicants with this dress are common in the Brahmanical tradition who used to clad themselves with the cloth made of bark (valkala). (In the Jaina lore, the personality of the Brahmanical "Rsyasonga" has been fused with "Vakkalaciri"). Mahakasava (No. 9) is obviously the same person who is known in the Pali texts as Mahakassapa, one of the most eminent disciples of the Buddha. He had attained a very high level in saintlihood. He, in point of fact, is the same great patriarch who presided over the first Buddhist Council held at Rajaglha in order to make the collection of the words of the Buddha soon after his Mahaparinibbana. (DPPN. Vol. II, pp. 476-483). The prose and the verses occurring in the Isibhasiyai in his context deal with the theory of kammavada as propounded by the Buddha which supports the authencity of the text. The text's statements ascribed to Mahakasava are true, as they should be upheld by one of the Buddha's main disciples like Mabakassapa. Mankhaliputta of the text (No. 11) is obviously "Makkhali Gosala", one of the six heretical teachers mentioned in the Pali texts, who were contemporary to the Buddha. He is also known to the Jaina texts, particularly the Vyakhyaprajnpti. Gosala had his own followers and his own Sangha In the Buddhist Pali texts he is described as Sanghi and Gani which suggest that he was enjoying a high status among the mendicants of Buddha's time. He is said to have propounded the view that there is no cause either ultimate or remote for the depravity of beings or for their restitude. But his views are confused and difficult to understand : (DPPN. Vol. II, pp. 398-400). So we find here, in the Isibhasiyai, as rightly pointed out in its Commentary, that while the stanzas 1-4 deal with the acquired knowledge, the stanza 5 contradicts the moral insight : (Isibhasiyai, p. 107). During the life time of the Bu 'dha, a sage Uddaka Ramaputta was renowned for ascetic practices, As is recorded, the Buddha also went to him for instructions soon after leaving his home as a wanderer. Although the Buddha abandoned him for finding him not 'perfect', he held him in high regard because of his spiritual attainments. In the Isibhasiyai (No. 23) we find him described both as an Arahat and Isi. He is said to have believed that, by purifying the eight types of defilements (mala), one reaches a stage where he remains for ever. In the Pali texts he is said to have attained a state of "neither consciousness nor non-consciousness (Nevasanna nasaina), the Fourth' jhana' where factors like sukhu (happiness) and ekaggata (ekagrata, concentration) exist. The 26th Isi of the Isibhasiai is devoted to Mayanga who may be identified with Matangafof the Pali texts. However, there occur four persons bearing this name. He may be the one who is said to be a Paccekabuddha : ( DPPN. Vol. II, p. 599). The allegory of krsi or tilling of the land as found in the Isibhasiyai may be compared with the description found in the "Kasibhara-dvaja-sutta" of the Page #397 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 72 C.S. Upasak Suttanipata Cf. Gatha 77, Khuddakanikaya Vol, I, Nal. Ed., p. 281) and also in the Samyutta-nikaya with a little variation. Pinga is another Brahmana parivrajaka (No. 32) whose utterances are recorded in the text. His statements may be compared with the sayings of the above 'Isi Mayanga'. Both of these Isis compare the life of an ascetic with a farmer who tills the land by the bulls. sows the seeds in the field; so also the ascetics till the land of atma; the tapa or penance is the seed, samyama or moral restraint is like the two nangalas or furrows and ahimsa is the rains of the mendicants. This is the divine agriculture" or Dharmagarbha-krsi. Here, again, the allegory is the same as we find in the Suttanipata and in the Samyutta-nikaya of the Pali Tipitaka as mentioned in the foregoing, These similar accounts suggest that the ascetics or religious wonderers had to encounter with the people for substantiating their 'unproductive' way of life. The Buddha also had to justify his monastic life by comparing it with the life of a farmer while discussing with Kasi Bhardvaja, a big landlord of his time. Isi Ping of the Isibhasiyai text is said to be a Brahmana Parivrajaka. The Anguttaranikaya mentions one Brahmana named Pingiyani of Vesali who is said to be the follower of the Buddha. (DPPN. Vol. II, p. 199ff.) Again, in the Samyuttanikaya (I. 35, 60), another Pingiya is described as a Bhikkhu who attained Arahatship. It is difficult to descern Pinga of the I sibhasiyai from any of the Pali texts. The Jaina text probably refers to an earlier Pinga from whom a line Pingayani emanated. But the allegorical illustrations are interestingly similar which point to the archaic nature and hence antiquity of the Isibhasiyai. The utterances of the two sages, namely Satiputta and Sanjaya are placed in the text one after another (Nos. 38 & 39). Satiputta has been identified with Sariputta of the Pali canon. He is one of the two "Chief Disciples" (Aggasavalas) of Gotama Buddha, the other is Moggallana The Buddha has praised Sariputta as 'foremost among those who possessed wisdom' (Etaggam mahapannanam): He is looked upon as a sage next to the Buddha, as wise in understanding the Dhamma as the Buddha himself. Significantly, in the Isibhisiyai, he is the only saint who is designated as 'Buddha' and 'Arahat' while other sages hold the title of 'Isi' and *Arahat' or 'Isi' or 'Arahat' only. Probably because of his first grade spiritual achievements he was held in high esteem and reverence by all other religionists of the period. He was probably popular among other sects and equally among the Jaina saints who also paid him full regard on account of his spiritual attainments. The compiler of the Isibhasiyai probably was aware of the esteemed personality of Sariputta and so calls him 'Buddha' (not isi), and thus, the text in the original linguistic form may be a composition of not later than the 3rd or 2nd cent. B. C, if not still earlier. The other saint Sanjaya, a contemporary of Sariputta (and also of the Buddha and Mahavira) is included in the list of six 'heretical teachers' Page #398 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Isibhasiyai and Pali Buddhist Texts-A Study 73 in the Pali texts. (DPPN. Vol. II, p. 999ff.) He is called there Saojaya Velatthiputta. Sariputta and Moggallana, the two Chief Disciples' of the Bud dha were his earlier disciples before they joined the Order of the Buddha. Saojaya had formed his own Sangha and probably had gathered a good number of followers. It is recorded in the Pali texts that he had died soon after Sariputta joined the Sangha of the Buddha at Rajagsha. Saojaya of Isibhasiyai appears to be the same saint who is known to the Pali texts. In the Commentary (Sangrahani) of Isibhasiyai, both Sariputta and Sanjaya are described as non-Jain saints in the tirtha (life time) of Mahavira. This indicates the authenticity of the text and also proves that both were contemporary to the Buddha and Mahavira, as also evidenced from other sources. The teachings of the above-noted saints succinctly recorded in the Isibhasiyai and traceable in the early Pali Buddhist texts, are once more points in evidence as regards the venerable antiquity of the text. The author of the text is well aware of the great saints of ancient India and so he records their names and their teachings on the whole fairly accurately. Thus, this text is one more valuable source for the evaluation of the religious ambience of the times that were contemporary, preceding, and immediately succeeding Buddha and Vardhamana Mahavira.

The Thananga (Sthananga)mentions it as the third chapter of the Panhavagaranaim (Praf navyakarana), the tenth anga. But the text of the Panhavagaranaim, being a postGupta replacement of the original, does not contain this chapter. The Samavayangas also knows the Isibhasiyai and describes it as containing forty-four ajjhayana (adhyayana). This tallies with the form of the Isibhasiyai which has fortyfive sections. 4 The text evidently was of considerable significance to the Jainas, because the scholiast, who wrote the Avassayani sjutti (Avas yaka-niryukti) (erroneously taken as the celebrity, Bhadrabahu), expresses his resolve to write a nijjutti on it also. 5 The Suyagada (Sutrakrtanga) names certain earlier "Mahapurusa Arhats" who evidently belonged to the Vedic tradition and achieved the position of Arhats by resorting to ways and practices which generally are not approved by Jainism. The term iha used here refers to Jaina canonical literature. But the author of the commentary explains it to signify Rsibhasita and other texts (Rsibhasitadau). The text commanded respect in Jaina literature. It was accepted as a kaliya text which, though not included in the angas, was approved for the study hours in the daily time-table.? On the basis of 'numerous indisputably genuine early reminiscences in language and style' Schubring places it in the category of the most ancient Jaina agamas such as the Ayura (Acara, particularly its first part, the Bambhaceraim), the Suyagada (Sutrakrta), the Uttarajjhaya (Uttaradhyayana and the Dasaveyaliya (Daf avaikalika). The Isibhasiyai doubtless has parallels in language and expression with these four texts. In the number of stanzas, the predominance of Slokas and the extant of prose the Isibha siyai is closest to the Dasaveyaliya; in the diversity of the metres it is like the Dasaveyaliya, Uttarajjhaya and Suyagada. Like the Bambhaceraim, our text is characterized by an intermingling of prose with verse, in which 'whole stanzas, half stanzas and single padas alternate with unmetrical executions'. The author of the text, as ascertained by Schubring, was close to Jina Parava from the doctrinal standpoint. This is indicated by the greater importance given to Parsva in devoting a rather long passage for expounding his dictum.10 The text, moreover, does not separate the fourth and fifth vows separately as was the case with the Caturyama-dharma preached by Parsva before Vardhamana Mahavira. The Isibhasiyai was evidently still under the influence of Parsva. It fuses the fourth and fifth vows into one. Page #400 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asita-Devala in Isibhasiyai The text breathes an atmosphere of liberal attitude which may have characterised the early days in the history of Jainism. It pays respect to many thinkers and religious leaders standing outside the Jaina fold by collecting their sayings to form a canonical work. Some of these belonged to the Vedic or Brahmanical tradition. We also find Mamkhaliputta111 (Maskariputra Gosala) and the Buddhists Mahakasaval (Mahakasyapa) and Saiputta (Sariputra)-buddha.18 There are, in the text, certain views which could not have been tolerated in later days of Jainism, when orthodoxy had settled down and anything inconsistant with the set doctrines, dogmas and practices could not expect an honourable reference. Section 20 introduces an anonymous utkata-vadin in place of a ri and mentions, with a fair show of approval, his materialism. We have an 'unjinistic' recognition of farming as divva kisi14 and a reference to cosmogonic theories, including one about the origin of the world from water.15 Likewise, orthodox Jainism of later times could not have accepted. the equation of Pariva, Mahavira, and latter's adversary Gosala Maskariputra, alike as pratyekabuddhas, which we find in our text. These 'strange things' in the text explain, according to Schubring, why it fell into 'nearly complete oblivion' and created uncertainty about it in later writings. This is exemplified by the confusion about it in Haribhadra's commentary on the Avassayanijjutti. In it the Isibhasiyai is identified at one place with the canonical Painna (Prakiryaka) named Devindatthaya (Devendra-stava), and in another18 with the Uttarajjhaya. We already have referred to the later confusion about the number of sections in the text. 75 A pointer to the date of the text is the reference to Gosala Maskariputra. The Viyahapannatti (Vyakkya-prajnapti) (c. 2nd-3rd cent. A. D.) represents him as a renegade disciple of Mahavira for that passage, but in our text he does not suffer from any such humiliation. On the contrary he enjoys an honoured position as a praty ekabuddha. This transformation in his status in Jaina perception must have taken a long period. Thus, the Isibhasiyai is to be placed a few. centuries before the selfsame (and other passages are similar in vein and style) in the Viyahapannatti. The emphasis on ethical thought is the main characteristic of the text. It brings out the common points in the ethical ideas of the early religions of different traditions. The metaphysical and doctrinal details and differences, which dominate later sectarian and scholastic texts, did not receive any importance from the author of this text. This also is a significant pointer to the early date of the text. Our text purports to collect the views of ris. Generally the word rsi is used It is supposed to be synonymous with muni. But, in our text it is employed in the special sense of a pratyekabuddha. A pratyekabuddha is a person, who, having realised the highest knowledge, acquired the status of the buddha for himself but, unlike the buddha, did not found a school or community. That the Page #401 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 76 Lallanji Gopal pratyekabuddhas of our text had no intention to teach, though they had their own characteristic views, is clear from the fact that the word buitam (dictum) and not pannattam (teaching) is used for them.20 Under the name of r si or pratyekabuddha the text records the views of forty-five thinkers, though in one case the actual name of the rsi is not mentioned. The text does not give enough details to identify the rsis or to locate them in time and place in all the cases. However, some of them can be easily identified with personalities mentioned in early texts of the Brahmanical tradition, for example, Jannavakka (=Yajaavalkya), Bahuya (=Bahuka or Nala), Soriyayana (=Sauryayani), Addalaka (= Uddalaka) and Aruna Mahasalaputta (= Aruni). The Brahmana association is clear in the cases of Pinga, Isigiri, (Rsigiri) and Sirigiri (Srigiri) who are called mahana-parivvayaga (brahmana-parivrajaka).21 Other names in this category are Asiya Davila ( = Asita Devala), Angarisi Bharaddaya (Angiras Bharadvaja), deva Naraya (=devarsi Narada),22 Divayana (= Dvaipayana) and Matanga. Vau (- Vayu), Soma, Jama (=Yama) and Varuna are the four Lokapalas (Regents of the Quarters) in the Brahmanical pantheon from very early times. Some names, for which we cannot adopt a very definite view (but some of them can still be identified), are Madhurayana (=Mathurayana), Tarayana (= Taragana, more probably sage Narayana), Ariyayana, Varisava-Kanha (=Varisakanha or Varsaganya, the ancient Sa mkhya teacher). About Harigiri, Kumbhaputta. Pupphasalaputta, Ramaputta (correctly Ramagutta), Gahavaiputta (= Gathapatiputra) Taruna, Ketaliputta23 and Vidu (=? Vidura) we are less certain. Besides Vaddhamana (- Vardhamana Mahavira) and Pasa (Parava), we have Mamkhaliputta (= Gosala Maskariputra), Saiputta (=Sariputra) Buddha and mahai Mahakasava (=Mahakasyapa). Vajjiyaputta possibly also had a Buddhist association and belonged to the Vajji republic.24 Vagalaciri (=Vakkalaciri), Jaina Rsyasonga, enjoyed a place of high respect in the eyes of the author of the text being referred to as viyatta bhagavam and uggatava. The other names in the text are Metajja (Maitreya), Bhayali, Samjai ( = ? Saojaya), 25 Dagabhala, 28 Varattaya Addaga, Indanaga (Indranaga) and Vesamana (Vaisravana). - Some of these names occur in some other Jaina texts as well. The Suyagada27. (c. 2nd cent. B. C.) mentions Asita, Devala, Dvaipayana, Parasara, Nami-videhi Ramagupta, Bahuka and Narayana as mahapurisa who achieved the highest knowledge, even though they followed ways not approved by Jainism. Confirmation of the names from other Jaina writings and non-Jaina texts makes a strong case for the historicity of most of the names mentioned in the Isibhasiya i. In the case of some others, we can postulate a quasi-historical existence, as they were handed down by a long and persistent tradition. (The four Lokapalas and Vaisravana are of course Vedic divinities). Page #402 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asita-Devala in Isibhasiyai 77 In section 3 the name of the rsi in the introductory prose passage is 'Asiya Davila'. The concluding prose sentence mentions him simply as Davila. Schubring28 feels no difficulty in taking Asita Devala to be the original of Asiya Davila. There cannot be any objection to equating Asiya with Asita. But Devala, as the original of Davila, is not so easy to explain, However, considering the major changes occurring in the name of other sages in the text and the form Davila (as intermediary between Devala and Davila), the restoration is to be accepted. Here I intend to discuss the identity of "Asita Devala" with particular reference to his characteristic ideas as stated in the Isibhasiyai. At the very outset it is to be pointed out that, though Asita Devala is mentioned as the name of a single person, the Suyagada29 makes Asita and Devala two different persons. The commentator Sila-suri(c. 3rd quarter of the 9th cent. A.D.) falls in line with the Suyagada." Pa There is some other Jaina evidence in support of Asita alone being the name of an individual. The Isimandala instead mentions the name as Devilasuta.30 There is no doubt that the Isimandala has Asita Devala of the Isibhasiyai in mind, because the introductory phrases in the two cases are closely parallel. 81 In Brahmanical tradition Asita Devala sometimes appears as one single name. But Devala alone is generally used as the name for an ancient sage respected as an authority alike in the Ayurveda and the Sankhya, besides being a Smoti writer. Hence, we would not involve ourselves in the discussion whether there were more than one Devala, or the first Devala made contributions to many areas of knowledge. The varied contributions of Devala are reflected in the quotations from the Devaladharma-sutra surviving in medieval commentaries and digests. The main burden of the teachings of Asita Devala in the Isibhasiyai is the cessation of all moral impurities or sins (savvalevovarata). The introductory prose passage begins by saying that those who are contaminated by moral impurities (levovalitta) revolve for a long time in this ocean of world. It seems that after the expression samsarasagaram the expression anupariyattanti is missings. Likewise, in the following sentence the word levovarata also seems to have been dropped.32 The second sentence says, by way of contrast, that the person whose moral impurities have ceased, having crossed the world, reaches a permanent abode and remains there. A number of adjectives describe the happy state of such a person. The text adds that, 'having resolved to become a man free from all moral impurities, Asita Davila, the arhat-rsi, (thus) said'. The eleven verses which follow are supposed to record the teachings of Davila. Thus it begins : He, who does violence (vihimsate) to the life of a small or big being, has his soul over-dominated by attachment and malignity (ragadosabhibhutappa) and he is contaminated by sinful acts (lippate pavakammuna)(Verse 1). Page #403 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 78 Lallanji Gopal He, who takes any belongings (pariggaham ginhate), whether little or considerable, is contaminated by sinful acts on account of the guilt of stupefication caused by greed (gehimucchaya dosenam)91 (Verse 2). He, who expresses anger (koham), on his own or for another person, is contaminated by sinful acts on account of the chains caused by it (Verse 3). After this we have a note saying: 'In this manner up to micchadamsanasalla. 34a This term appears as the last in the list of eighteen papas recognised in the Jaina tradition 34 b and signifies a false philosophy of life. Verse 4 enumerates as moral impurities (leva) killing a living thing (panativate), saying untruth (aliyavayanim), stealing or taking what has not been given away (adattam), intercourse (mehunagamanam) and amassing property (pariggaham). Verse 5 mentions anger (kohe), conceit (muno), deceit (maya), and greed (lobho) as moral impurities which are of various forms or types (bahuviho, bahuvidhavidhie and bahuvidha). Hence, having considered them to be the cause for augmenting sinful acts, one should be a noble seeker of the best goal and should become a wandering ascetic for vigorous efforts 35 (Verse 6). As milk is destroyed after being associated with poison, attachment and malignity are the destroyer of continence (bambhacera) (Verse 7).35a As the best of milk by stupefication is turned into curd, so the sinful acts increase on account of the guilt of greed (Verse 8).*6 The jungle trees in a forest, when burnt by the wild fire, grow again, but, in the case of people exhumed by the fire of anger, it is very difficult to be free from unhappiness (Verse 9).37 Even the fiercely burning fire can be extinguished by water, but the fire of delusion cannot be extinguished by all the water in the sea (Verse 10). 98 He, who has realised the nature of the shackles of birth and death, has broken the (cycle of birth and death and is free from the dust (of action), achieves final beatitude (Verse 11).89 At the end we have a summarised sentence40, the full form of which appears earlier at the end of the first section. The fuller sentence is to be translated thus : 'I say, "Thus becoming enlightened, indifferent (to worldly attachment), freed from sins, restrained, taking all objects to be the same, and a renouncer41, he does not come again for the activities of this (world)."' We have to discuss the extent to which these passages represent Asita Devala's own words and ideas. According to Schubring the whole text was composed by one single author; the parallelism in the structure of the individual chapters proves this 'no less than the throughout uniform style and the numerous self-quotations'42 He admires the text as being original and attractive. 43 The charm of novelty' of the text reveals itself when contrasted with the 'uniform creation of contemporary parallel texts which are only more or less cleverly and transparently composed compilations'. Our author has adorned the passages borrowed from the words of the rsis by covering them with the plumage of its own'. This has camouflaged the Page #404 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asita-Devala in I sibhasiyai 79 original words of these ssis to such an extent that their disciples 'would indeed have stood perplexed before these splinters from the thought-workshop of the master'. For determining the original views and expressions of any rsi in this text, we have to concentrate on the motto and the exposition parts of the concerned section, The sections do not show a uniform style in regard to these two. They are in any of three forms, prose, verses, or both mixed together. The variation is more noticeable in the case of motto. 44 The variations, as against a stereotyped uniformity, may be construed to show that the form and expressions in the different sections result from the peculiarities in the original expression of the teachings of the different rsis. The nature of the text compelled the author to make 'greater borrowings' from the original. Schubring has suggested that in the motto and exposition portions, stanzas, in a metre other than the sloka, would generally appear to have been borrowed by the author from some other source. Likewise, some prose passages are parallel to passages in other texts and were more or less conscious reminiscence.'45 These two criteria of the metre of the stanzas and the expressions in the prose passages do not help us much in the case of the section on Devala and we will have to analyse the content of the section for internal indications. In the section we notice a visible attempt to cast Devala's ideas into the mould of Jainism. Schubring46 points out that verse III. I and III. 2 of the text deal respectively with the guilt effected by pranatipata and parigrahi, i.e. the violation of the first and fifth mahauratas (vows) in Jainism. Tne second of the four manuscripts of the text, which Alsdorf photographed in Jain Bhandar in 1957, inserts three verses between lines a and b of verse 2.47 They refer to the guilt effected by the violation of the second (speaks the untruth-musam bhasae), third (takes what is not given-adinnim genhai) and fourth (enjoys intercourse-mehunan sevai) vows. According to Schubring 8, these verses 'do not make the expression of an old text.' He admits that the insertion of these stanzas, relating to the second, third and fourth vows, is logical in itself. But, considering the approach of the author in a parallel situation in an earlier section of the text (I. 19ff ), where he mentions only the first, third and fourth vows, we can say that it was not imperative on his part to include these five lines to cover the second, third and fourth vows, The Sanskrit Tika also does not take cognisance of these five lines. It seems that somebody, with a view to fitting the stanzas into the Jaina formulation of mahavratas, added these lines. An analysis of the subsequent portions of the text makes it clear that the author did not have the model of the mahavratas in his mind. In verse 3 he refers to the expression of anger (koham) as a factor causing contamination with sinful acts, on the same footing as the killing of beings and the taking of belongings. Verse 3 is followed by the expression Evam java micchadamsanasalle, The author, Page #405 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 80 Lallanji Gopal thus, intends to cover factors, the first three being mentioned in the first three verses, which go up to micchadamsanasalle. The Jaina tradition mentions eighteen papa-karmas.49 Of these the first is pranatipata (verse 1 of our text), the second, third and fourth are respectively mosavada, adattadana and maithuna (five lines in the manuscript mentioned above), the fifth is parigraha (verse 2 of our text), the sixth is krodha (verse 3 of our text) and the eighteenth is mithya-darsanaf alya.50 Thus, according to the author of the text, Devala also spoke about the eighteen papakarmas, beginning from pranatipata and ending with mithyadarsanas alya. The intention of the author becomes quite clear when in verses 4-5 he enumerates the guilt-contaminations as panativato, aliyavayanan, adattan, mehunagamanan, pariggaham, koho, mano, maya and lobho, which occur in the same order as the first nine papa-karmas in the Jaina tradition. Clearly, he was straining hard to present Devala's verses on lepas within the pattern of Jaina enumeration of papakarmas. Schubring points out quite a few mistakes and contradictions in the text, 51 some of which were due to the defective tradition on which the author drew, while he was doubtlessly responsible for some others. It is, however, not possible to fix the responsibility on the author or tradition in each case. But, it is to be noted that the author was not satisfied to work as a mere cataloguer or compiler of the views of others. He had a definite plan or purpose and he asserted his rights as an author to realize it. As pointed out earlier, he wanted to emphasise the ethical parts in the teachings of the thinkers. The omission of other aspects of their teachings was bound to project a partial or lopsided picture of their total teachings. In his effort to project the ethical problems of the ideas of his predecessors, with the view to bringing home the homogenity and universality of the ethical core of different religions, our author could have inadvertently, and in some cases deliberately, ironed out the divergent details. This possibly happened in the case of Devala's teachings also. The attempt on the part of the author to present the teachings of Devala to suit his convenience is to be seen in the structure of the section. Like all other sections in the text it has three distinct parts: the motto, the exposition separated from it by the name of the rsi, and the conclusion. No amount of reasoning will convince anyone to believe that all the forty-four rsis formulated their views in the stereotyped form in which they occur in our text. This holds good for the section on Devala also. The absurdity is apparent in the case of the concluding sentence. Though it purports to be an utterance of a particular rsi, it has a set formula of words, so much so that the author dispenses with the formality of reproducing it in full in all the sections and instead gives the opening and concluding expression. Clearly the sentence recording the concluding resolve of the different rsis could not have been identical, even if we admit the closest similarities in their views. Thus, in the present section also we see the working of the hands of the author who wanted to present Devala's teachings according to his scheme and structure. Page #406 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asita-Devala in Isibhasiyai 81 The very first line of the introductory prose passage shows that the central point in Devala's teachings is leva (lepa), contamination of sin. Verses 4 and 5 confirm it. The first three verses explain leda by employing the descriptive expression lippata pavakammuna as the refrain. Later on, verses 6 and 8 also speak of the pavakamma getting augmented. The original work of Devala is not available. On the basis of quotations in later commentaries and digests we have been able to reconstruct some parts of the erstwhile Devala-dharmasutra.52 The text, it is revealed, possessed one full chapter concerning papadosas. Prayatcitta, doubtless, had formed an important part of the dharmasastra literature. But only a few Smstis refer, and that too very briefly, to the papas. The account of papadosas in the Devaladharmasatra is without any parallel in any other Brahmanical text. It classifies papadosas broadly into three on the basis of their origin from mind, speech, or body. These three are further divided respectively into twelve, six and four sub-types. Each of these is first defined and explained in prose passages in the form of sutras. They are followed by verses explaining or illustrating in a more popular style the nature of the different papadosas. Thus, the chapter on papadosas would appear to be one of the more significant portions of the Devaladharmasutra. It was quite proper, then, on the part of the author of the Isibhasiyai to include an account of the contamination caused by sin on the basis of the treatment of the subject by Devala. We have seen above that in the first three verses of our text there was a deliberate attempt to accommodate Devala's views in the Jaina pattern. But, in this process, the original kernel of Devala's writings peeps out. Thus, in the first two verses, though the violations of the vows of ahimsa and aparigraha are treated, it is clear that the original emphasis was on ragadosa (attachment and malignity) and gehi (greed) as factors causing contamination of sinful acts. The author could not pursue this exercise of his for long, probably because there was not enough material in Devala's verses amenable to the Jaina scheme. He included a verse on koho (anger) and finally gave up the exercise by remarking that in this way it goes up to micchadamsanasalla. This incongruity becomes still more clear in the subsequent verses. Verse 8 again refers to the increase in sinful acts on account of the guilt of gehi (greed). Gehi (Skt. grddhi) does not appear in the Jaina list of eighteen papas. It does not occur in the Dedaladharmasutra either. But, we find that in the extant quotations from Devala, the verses describing lobha contain three which bring out the significance of trsna or trsa. We cannot rule out the possibility that some of the lost verses contained a similar reference to grddhi. Further onward, in verse 10, the papa, which has been underlined, is followed by moha. Moha also does not figure in the Jaina list of the 18 papasthanakas. But it has been included by Devala in the list of twelve papadosas which arise out of the mind. 11 Page #407 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 82 Lallanji Gopal Verses 6 and 11, though touched by the author of the Isibhasiyai, retain words with a specific usage characteristic of the Brahmanical tradition to which Devala belonged. The second line of the verse 6 reads : uttamatthavaraggahi viriyattae pariovae. In the expression uttamatpha, atfha has been used in the sense of one of the pursuits of life (purusarthas). In the Jaina texts the usual term in such a context would be esana. The expression uttamattha here stands for moksa which is described as the highest or ultimate pursuit of life. The verb parivvae is to be derived from the Sanskrit verb parivraj53 and is to be connected with the words parivrajya, parivraj, pariorafa and parivrajaka. They refer to a wandering mendicant, recluse, or ascetic who has renounced the world. In the religious atmosphere prevailing at the time of the appearance of the Buddha, the order of the parivrajakas was fairly prevalent. In the wake of the popularity of the Sramanic systems, the Brahmanical tradition made an effort to contain and control it by recognising it as the fourth stage of life (asrama). The fourth asrama in later times was generally termed sannyasa, but in earlier times the appelation pariurajaka seems to have been more in vogue. In one surviving excerpt from the Devaladharmasutra54, the duties and rules relating to a parivra jaka were prescribed. Thus, it can be seen that verse 6 of our text advises that pursuing the ultimate purusartha (moksa) one should become a parivrajaka (enter the fourth asrama) and exert himself,66 Verse 11 says that he who has understood the nature of the chains of birth and death, breaks the cycle of birth and death and is taintless, attains siddhi. The word siddhi in a general sense often means fulfilment or success But it has a restricted and specialised meaning as well. In the Yoga system siddhi (or aitvarya. guna) refers to superhuman powers or faculties, which are supposed to be eight in number. The Devaladharmasutra evidently contained a detailed account of the Yoga and Sankhya systems, 56 Here siddhi seems to have been used in the technical sense common to the Yoga system and the Devaladharmasulra. Verse 7 reveals the original words of Devala which seem to have escaped the changing hands of the author of the Isibhasiyai. It describes raga (attachment) and dosa (dvesa, malignity) as the destroyer of bambhacera (brahmacarya). The use of the term bambhacera is significant. It stands for the first stage or order in the life of an individual (asrama), the life of celibacy passed by a Brahmana boy in .studying the Vedas, or celibacy, chastity, etc. The context, however, does not have any reference to the first stage of life alone. Likewise, the passage will not yield a happy meaning if brahmacarya is restricted to celibacy inasmuch as there is no direct and intimate connection between dvesa and carya on the one hand and celibacy on the other. Among the many meanings of Brahman are 'Supreme Being', 'religious austerities', and 'intellect. The carya of Brahman will, therefore, signify religious study or self-restraint. This use of the term brahmacarya in this verse appears to have survived from the original verse of Devala.57 Page #408 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asita-Devala in Isibhasiyai 83 Against the background of these indications of the original Brahmanical core of Devala surviving the Jaina revision, we may refer to certain features of style and structure, which, though not conclusive, are compatible with the known features of Devala's writings in the available excerpts. First is the introductory prose passage. It is admitted that this portion of the text was intended to introduce the views of a rsi and hence would appear to have been formulated mostly by the author of the text. As against the other sections in the text associated with other rsis, whose original writings are not available, the section under study is to be compared with the views of Devala as recorded in a dharmasutra named after him. This dharmasutra was partly in prose sitras and partly in verses. The surviving prose passages of the Devaladharmasutra show a peculiar style. We often find long sentences, wherein the details are in the form of adjectives qualifying the main noun. 58 This is also a feature of the introductory prose passage in the section associated with Devala. In the partly damaged second sentence we have several words qualifying samsarasagaram and thanam. The style comes out beautifully in the third sentence which has a long string of adjectives describing the characteristic of a savvalavovarae person. We cannot argue, in the absence of the full text of the Devaladharmasitra, that these expressions or sentences occurred in the original, but, we can suggest that the author of our text possibly tried to present the introduction, which purports to record the motive or resolve of Devala, in the peculiar style he noticed as characterising the prose passages in Devala's original work. Another prominent feature of the style of the Devaladharmasutra is that it first enumerates all the important points or subdivisions in a summarised form and in subsequent verses, elaborates, explains, and illustrates them. Although the full text of the Devaladharmasutra is unavailable, in all the cases where we are able to reconstruct a chapter, this style is evident. In our text the section on Devala also seems to possess this characteristic. This point is all the more significant because our author was not under any obligation to reproduce all the passages from Devala's original. He was presenting the views of Devala, within the framework of his text and the task taken up by him. Verses 1-3 followed by the remark evam java micchadamsanasalle show that the author cut short the portions dealing with the enumeration of the factors causing pavas. Verses 4-5 retain the style of enumeration in a pronounced manner. The subsequent verses (6-11) are evidently in the nature of further explanation and elaboration of the points or factors listed in the earlier verses. To illustrate our point, we may refer to verses 8 and 9 which bring home the force of gehi and koha mentioned as factors causing para in verses 2 and 3. A comparison of the phrasing of verses 2 and 8 will show the intrinsic connection between the two. 59 This similarity in the style suggests that our author had before him the original Devaladharmasitra from which he drew. No doubt it may be argued that this characteristic is shared by early Indian thought as projected in some Page #409 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Lallanji Gopal of the earlier works belonging to different branches of learning. However, it must be remembered that it was not an invariate feature of Indian thought and texts, and, when compared with texts of a similar nature, the Devaladharmasutra has it in a very pronounced manner. 84 A few other features of the passages attributed to Devala in our text may also be noted. We are conscious that they are found associated with many other carly texts and are not so characteristic of the passages surviving in the name of Devala to drive home the connection between the two only on the basis of these features, The first is the metre floka employed in our text. Though the metre has been used in the Devaladharmasutra also, it is the most convenient and popular metre for this type of writings and occurs in Sanskrit, Pali and Prakrit texts alike. The second pronounced feature noticeable in our text is the repetition of the same phrases in the fourth part of the verse as refrain. In verses 1 to 3 we find the words lippate pavakammuna being repeated thus. In verses 4 and 5 levo occurs seven times evidently for emphasising its importance. This feature can also be seen in many other texts with a religious, philosophical, diadectical, or ethical theme which resort to a similar style for creating greater effect. Another significant feature of the style in our text is the use of homely simile and illustration for clarifying the point. In verses 7 to 10 the illustrations are derived from the phenomena of milk being destroyed as a result of contamination with poison, milk turning into curd, forest trees being burnt by jungle fire and fire being controlled with the help of water. This feature is characteristic of many early Indian texts, particularly those which have to explain a difficult philosophical idea in an easy manner or which seek to create greater impact in emphasising the importance of a religious or ethical precept.

Page #413 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ ASRAVA : HOW DOES IT FLOW ? Alex Wayman It is well known that in Jaina texts the term asrava means an inflow of karmaa kind of material-into the soul. Still a Western translator of Buddhist texts has translated the same term as "out-flow.''2 Granted that a number of technical terms are employed in varying senses in the different philosophical systems and religions of India. The diametrically opposite rendition of the important term asrava is certainly striking and warrants investigation, which I shall carry on by way of varieties and the theory of "flowing." Varieties and the negative form A Pali dictionary explains the term asrava as meaning "influx" or "outflow" (e. g. discharge from a sore). The Chinese renderings of asrava are overwhelmingly "flow, flux, leaking."'4 The Tibetan translation is regularly zag pa, "flow, leaking." For my own translation projects I adopted a rendition "flux" or in the adjectival case "fluxional." 6 The Sanskrit form is either asrava or asrava." Three kinds are stated in the Sammaditthisutta of the Majjhima-Nikaya - kamasava, bhavasava, and avijjasava.8 The Abhidhammattha Samgaha of Bhadanta Anuruddhacariya mentions four, which are the foregoing three plus ditthasay take them individually :-- (1) The kama variety is explained in Saddhammappakasini as vatthukama (desire for given things) and kilesakama (desire for defilement).10 This pair agrees with Asanga's self-commentary on the Paramartha-gathali: moksam dvividham darsayati / klesamoksain vastumoksam ca / sarvabijasamutsadena klesapariksayat klesamoksam tatraiva capy asamklesad vastumoksam yo bhiksavas caksusi chandaragas tam prajahita | evam ca tac caksuh prahinam bhavisyatiti / Sutrapadanyayena evam sopadhisesam moksam darsayitva nirupadhisesam darsayati | That release he shows to be of two kinds : release from defilements and release from given things. There is release from defilements by destroying all seeds through eradication of defilement; and in the same place, as well, there is release from given things through no stain. The sutra says: "O monks, whatever be the sensuous lust in the eye, abandon that! So also will the eye disappear." In the manner of that text he thus shows the release with remaining basis and then shows the one without remaining basis. Page #414 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asrava : How does it Flow ? 89 According to this passage, if desire for defilements (klesakama) is eliminated, desire for given things ( vastukama ) will also leave. (2) The bhava variety is a passion for gestation (bhava) in the realm of form and the formless realm, according to C. A. F. Rhys Davids' Compendium, 12 (3) The dittha variety is the sixty-two wrong views (drsti) of the Brahmajalasutta, according to the Compendium. 18 (4) The avijja variety is ignorance of the four Noble Truths, past and future lives, the formula of dependent origination, and so on, according to the Compendium. 14 The negative form an-asrava may be employed as an unqualified negation; so the Saddhammappakasini : anasayan 'ti asavavirahitam.15 Is it so in Vasubandhu's Abhidharmakosa (1, 4, 5) ?16 sasrava 'nasrava dharmah samsksta margavarjitah / sasravah asravas tesu yasmat samanuserate // anasrava margasatyam trividham capy asamskstam akasam dvau nirodhau ca tatrakasam anavstih 11 The natures (dharma) are either sasrava or anasrava. The constructed ones are sasrava except on the path, since the asrava leave their mark in those [= the constructed ones, the five skandha per AK I, 7a-b]. The anasrava ones are the Truth of Path and the three non-constructed, namely, space and the two cessations. Among them, space is non-obstruction. Vasubandhu comments on the verb samanuserate : anusayanirdesa eva (an indication of 'trace', anusaya). Here, while the term anasrava can apply both to the Truth of Path and the three "non-constructed", it appears to diverge in significance for the two cases. When applying to the "non-constructed" it is an unqualified negation, as in the Saddhammappakasini comment. But when applying to the path (marga), it cannot be unqualified, or persons on the path would be entirely free of asrava while this was supposed to be Arhat attainment at the end of the path for which such a term as ksinasrava (erased the asrava) is used. 17 For the path, the term anasrava appears to mean "opposed to asrava', i.e. actively opposing, hence reducing asrava 18 Accordingly, the term sasraya would mean "promoting asrava". Then Vasubandhu clarifies that the role of the asrava in "constructed" (samskrta) natures-excepting the path-is described by anusaya. This term is not connected with "flow" as is asrava (at vsru, to flow); rather goes with the root 12 si, to lie, referring to its varieties as dormant. The Abhidharmakosa, Chap. V, shows various ways of classifying the anusaya. Asanga; in his Yogacarabhumi, includes them among increasing enumerations (ekottara) of defilements (klesa).19 For the number seven he presents seven anusaya, each labelled "anusaya": kamaraga (sensuous lust), 12 Page #415 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Alex Wayman pratigha (hostility), bhavaraga (passion for gestation), mana (pride), avidya (nescience) drsti (wrong views), vicikitsa (doubt). Reducing kamaraga and bhavaraga to raga, one gets his list of six which he does not label anusaya, but which is the basic list of six anusaya in AK, Chap. V, lc-d.20 According to Asanga's list, these defiled traces (anusaya) are an expansion of the four kinds of asrava. The renditions of this term asrava in its Pali form asava by translators of scriptures in that language, namely (Mrs. C.A.F. Davids) "intoxicants", (Miss I. B. Horner) "cankers", and the like, appear to attribute to the word asava qualities that go with certain varieties, which prejudges the case. 21 90 The theory of flowing First, the ancient Buddhist canon, the Samyutta-Nikaya I, contains in the Mara Suttas the question by one of Mara's daughters and the Buddha's response, about the five streams and the sixth; and the episode is in a Sanskrit version in the Mahavastu, III22; here the Palis: "katham viharibahulodha bhikkhu, pancoghatinno ataridha chattham/ katham jhayi bahulam kamasanna, paribahira honti aladdhayo tam" ti // "passaddhakayo suvimuttacitto, asankhaiano satima anoko / annaya dhammam avitakkajhayi, na kuppati na sarati na thino [/ "evam viharibahulodha bhikkhu, pancoghatinno ataridha chattham/ evam jhayi bahulam kamasannaa, paribahira honti aladdhayo tam" ti // For the translation, instead of the Pali aladdhayo tam we should accept the Sanskrit alabdhagadha, supported by the Tibetan version gna' dag ma thob when the same verses are presented and commented upon by Asanga in Cintamayi bhumi in the Tibetan canon: (Mara's daughter :) "How should a monk in his numerous states, having crossed the five streams, cross the sixth? How should a meditator who has not attained union (Pali, *yogam,25 Skt. gaddha) expel the abundant ideas of desire ?" (Buddha :) "With body cleansed and mind liberated; without instigation, mindful, and untroubled; knowing the doctrine (dharma) and meditating without constructive thought, passion does not stir, nor is he torpid. Page #416 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Asrava: How does it Flow "Thus should the monk in his numerous states, having crossed the five streams, cross the sixth. Thus should the meditator who has not attained. union expel the abundant ideas of desire." According to Asanga, the term "stream" stands for sensory activity; thus, the eye is a stream because viewing forms, and likewise for the remaining five senses; then the sixth stream is the mind (manas) because perceiving mental natures (dharma). The Pali commentator Buddhaghosa has a consistent remark. Furthermore, when the "body is cleansed"-i. e. there is "cathartic of body" (kaya-prakrabdhi), the mind may be "liberated" from lust (raga), hatred (dvesa), and delusion (moha). And thus one crosses those streams. As to attaining "union", as I understand Asanga's discussion, it is the union of "calming the mind" (samatha) and "discerning the real" (vipasyana, where the verse's "non-instigation" points to the "calming", and where the verse's "mindful" as the four "stations of mindfulness" (smrtyupasthana) points to the "discerning", with the verse's remaining words representing further clarifica tions of this union. 91 Since Asanga's Sravakabhumi statement about "restraint of sense organs" contains the verb form anusraveyus, it is well to present it now 27: indriyasamvarah katamah / sa tam eva silasamvaram nisrityaraksitasmrtir bhavatinipaka-smrtih / smrtyaraksitamanasah samavasthavacarakah sa caksusa rupani drstva / na nimittagrahi bhavati nanuvyanjanagrahi yatodhikaranam asya papaka akusala dharmas cittam anusraveyus tesam samvaraya pratipadyate raksati mana-indriyam sa srotrena sabdan ghranena gandhan jihvaya rasan kayena sprastavyani / manasa dharman vijaaya na nimittagrahi bhavati nanuvyanjanagrahi yatodhikaranam asya papaka akusala dharmas cittam anusraveyus tesam samvaraya pratipadyate raksati mana-indriyam / mana-indriyena samvaram apadyate / ayam ucyata indriyasamvarah/ What is restraint of sense organs? When one has taken recourse to just the restraint of morality, be guards mindfulness. His mindfulness is prudent. His mind is guarded by mindfulness. He has the sphere of the even state. When he sees forms with the eye, he does not take hold of sign-sources or details by reason of which sinful, unvirtuous natures would flow (anusraveyus) after his mind. He acts in each case to restrain those. He guards his mind sense-organ. When he perceives sounds with his ear, odors with his nose, tastes. with his tongue, tangibles with his body, natures (dharma) with his mind, he does not take hold of sign-sources or details by reason of which sinful unvirtuous natures would flow after his mind. He acts in each case to restrain those. He guards his mind sense organ. The mind sense-organ exerts the restraint. This is called "restraint of sense organs." Page #417 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 92 Alex Wayman The Mahayana biography of the Buddha called Lalitavistara in its dependent origination (pratityasamutpada) verses has this one where "flow" is given by the word salila :28 skandha pratitya samudeti hi duhkham evam sambhonti trsnasalilena vivardhamana / margena dharmasamataya vipasyamana atyantaksina ksayadharmataya niruddhah // The personal aggregates (skandha) arise in dependence in this way does suffering arise. They swell by the flow of craving. When discerned on the path by sameness of natures (dharma), undergoing extreme depletion, they cease by their underlying nature of destruction. Edgerton, in his entry on "asrava", 29 also cites the Lalitavistara (351.1) to show how this "destruction" (ksaya) takes place : suska asrava na puna sravanti ("The fluxes, dried up, flow no more"). The foregoing investigation presents no suggestion that the word asava means out-flow. Indeed, the verbal prefix a- means here "to, unto". So Narada explains the word in his book on the Abhidhammattha Samgaha : "They are so called either because they flow up to the topmost plane of existence or because they persist as far as the Gotrabhu consciousness (i, e., the thought-moment that immediately precedes the Path-consciousness of the 'Stream-Winner'--Sotapatti). These Asavas are latent in all worldlings and may rise to the surface in any plane of existence."0 Notice that the remark "latent in all worldlings'' points to the word anusaya (traces), while "may rise to the surface" is normally expressed by a different term, paryavasthana (entrapment). There is also a way of talking about an-asrava as a kind of "bleeding". One may refer to the Lankavatara-sutra's passage on the anantariya (deadly sins, five in number, bearing immediate retribution),"patricide", "matricide", etc., by abhisamdhi, a deliberate transvaluation of the terms, 31 in this case the anantariya of causing, with evil intention, the Tathagata to bleed; and the sutra states 32 : - svasamanyabahyasvacittadsayamatravabodhakanam mahamate astanam vijnanakayanam vimoksatrayanasravadustavikalpenatyantopaghatad vijnanabuddhasya dustacittarudhiropadanad unantaryakarity ucyate / Mahamati, when the eight sets of vijnana which imagine the inherent (sva) and the generalizing (samanya) [characters (laksana)] to be external while they are merely what is seen by one's mind, are completely extirpated of their faulty (= evil) constructions by the three liberations and "nonflux", thus causing a bleeding, with "evil intention", of the Vijnanabuddha it is called an "immediacy deed". Page #418 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ - 93 Asrava : How does it Flow ? 93 Here, the negation an-asrava has the effect of an opposite movement to asrava. Whereas asrava is a flow unto or upto, the an-asrava is a flow away from or down and out. I have elsewhere cited another passage about "bleeding"33 : Another Tibetan text mentions omens that the defilement will be purged : Furthermore, there are omens for the purging of sin and defilement, that speaking generally, are superior when concrete, middling when mental, and inferior when in dream; to wit, the good omens that the body emits much filthy matter, or bleeds blood and pus, or that one is bathed and in white clothes.84 And so long as they do not occur one should continually trust (that they will). So far I have not gone into the matter of the Buddha's "third watch of the night (of enlightenment)" when according to some Buddhist traditions he knew the eradication of asrava, that this is included in the supernormal faculties (abhijna) as the sixth one, or that the Arhat-attainment is especially characterized by asravaksaya. Such considerations would not have advanced my purpose of showing the significance of the positive term generally and of the negative form in special circumstances such as the Buddhist path. Finally, I must applaud the consistency of translators of Jaina scriptures in rendering the term asrava by "in-flow". My investigation suggests that everywhere that the term occurs in Buddhist texts and was rendered "out-flow' the context would have been better served by rendering it as "in-flow" or by the more neutral flux". Notes 1. A recent work continuing this rendition, in fact "influx", is Padmanabh S. Jaini, The Jaina Path of Purification (Motilal Banarsidass, Delhi, 1979). Edward Conze, Buddhist Thought in India (George Allen & Unwin Ltd., London, 1962), at one spot renders the term "outflows" and at another, "impurities." However, this late Buddhologist, famous for his important works on the Prajnaparamita scriptures and whose various works on Buddhism are readily available and influential, adopted the rendition "outflows" for asrava in his "List of Buddhist Terms" which was duplicated and handed out at places where he would teach.

Miss Horner's "canker(s)" in her translation of Majjhima-Nikaya seems to adopt the medical meaning of a sore that is discharging, which disagrees with the side of asrava constituted by the latent anusaya.

Page #421 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ CONCEPT OF "JIVA (SOUL)" IN JAINA PHILOSOPHY J. C. Sik dar The Jaina conception of Jiva (Soul) occupies the first place among the doctrines of independent Soul (Svatantrajivavada); for the Jaina view on soul seems more ancient than those held by other Indian philosophical systems. It, moreover, is comprehensible to the common people. Besides, this "sentient principle" was well established as the object of meditation for liberation of Jina Parsvanatha in the c. eighth century B. C. In the continuum of Jaina tradition, no fundamental change in the doctrine of soul (which was anciently conceived by the Jaina thinkers through their experience in life and in Nature) came, even up to the present time (unlike in the Buddhist and Vedic traditions in regard to it) even when fresh thoughts on the problem progresively emerged in the field of Indian Philosophy. The reference to the concept of the six kayajivas (embodied souls or beings),prthivikaya (earth bodied being), apakaya (water-bodied being), tejakaya (fire-bodied being), vayukaya (air-bodied being), vanaspatikaya (plant-bodied being) and trasakaya jivas (mobile beings)reveals a belief in animism in Jaina philosophy, indeed a reflection of the old concept of animism which conceived non-difference of Jiva and Sarira (Soul and body).4 There are stated to be many synonyms for Soul-Jiva, Jivastikaya, prana, bhuta, satta, vijna, ceta, jeta, atma, pudgala, manava, etc. The term poggala (Skt. pudgala) stands as the synonym for Soul, just as it is used in the Buddhist texts to denote Soul or personality, according to the Vatsiputriyas. Jiva is called both poggali (pudgali) and poggala (puggala); just as the chatri (holder of umbrella) is known by the chatra (umbrella), the dandin (staff-holder) by the danda (staff ), the ghatrin (pot-holder) by the ghata (pot), the patin (cloth holder) by the pata (cloth), the karin (elephant) by its kara (trunk), so is known Jiva (Soul) to be pudgalin with regard to the sense-organs of hearing, sight, smell, taste and touch, and it is pudgala with regard to Jiva. According to the commentator Abhayadeva (latter half of the 11th cent. A. D.), Jiva is called pudgala because of integration and disintegration of bodies etc. It seems that there had been a common tradition to use this word 'poggala' or 'puggala' in order to signify Soul or personality before the era of Jina Mahavira and Gautama Buddha. The definition of Jiva becomes clear by the meanings of its synonymous words; the term 'Jiva' for instance connotes that Soul is consciousness itself and consciousness invariably is Soul. (He) whoever breathes is invariably Jiva (being); but Jiva breathes in some and does not breathe in other respecto, as it is co-extensive with the body. Kundakundacarya (8th cent. A.D.)10 clarifies the point by defining it in this way: "That which is traikalika (lived in the past, lives at present and will Page #422 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva) (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 97 live in future) with life-essentials,-five senses, three channels of activities, duration of life and respiration,--and is fashioned by the material substance is Jiva (Soul or Sentient Principle)."11 The nature of Jiva is thus explained in the Vyakhyaprajnapti (compiled c. 3rd cent. A. D): Jivastikaya is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, touchless, non-corporeal, living, eternal and permanent, and fixed (constant) substance of the Cosmic Universe, having the attribute of consciousness, 12 Here Jiva is studied from the aspects of dravya (substance), ksetra (field or locus), kala (time), bhava (condition or state) and guna (capacity or quality) in regard to its correlation with them. In it is infinite living substances (anamtaim jivadavvaim) from the standpoint of dravya; coextensive with the space of the Cosmic Universe (Lokapramana) from that of ksetra; eternal and permanent from that of kala; colourless, odourless, tasteless and touchless from that of bhava; and, finally, it is endowed with an attribute of consciousness from that of guna, (capacity or quality). 's On the basis of the Agamic explanation of the nature of Jiva, Umasvati (c. 5th cent. A. D.) and the later exponents clearly define it by stating that Soul is permanent in nature, fixed in number, non-corporeal in substance and hence devoid of the characteristics of Matter, namely colour smell, taste and touch.14 Jiva is infinite in number and it is different on account of the difference of body; for, in the universe, there are infinite number of living beings having infinite different bodies. 15 The doctrine of plurality of souls, having a unity running through them as substances in regard to their substantiality of existence, is advocated in Jaina philosophy, because, it is observed that two or more sentient beings are individual observers and transformers of food; and they bind (i. e, make) separate bodies and assimilate matters or "form bodies" independently. They differ with regard to their respective senses, conditions of soul, attitude of mind, knowledge, and activities. For example, some of them have this consciousness or sentiency (such as "we absorb food-stuff'), while some of them do not have this feeling, but still they take food and so forth.16 There are countless points of space in one single soul-substance because of its coextensiveness with Lokakasa (Universe) by expansion.17 "Pradesa is the unit of three dimensional space which is employed in the measurement of the dimensions of the substance of the Universe. Taking this as the measure, the number of pradesas in the Universe is said to be countless. The media of motion and rest are coextensive with the Universe and thus have a similar number of pradesas. Souls are found in different bodies of different dimensions in their mundane state, but each one of these has the capacity of expanding and filling the whole Universe by contraction and expansion of its pradesas; a soul is capable of occupying the countless pradesas of the Universe just like the flame of a lamp whose light can fill either a small room or a big hall". 18 Thus the number of pradesas in each individual soul is equal to the number of pradesas in the Universe, namely countless pradesas. Jain Education national Page #423 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 98 J. C. Sikdar Among many capacities of Soul the main and most comprehensib'e of all the jnanasakti (capacity of knowledge), viryasakti (capacitiy of striving energy), samkalpasakti (capacity of volition or desire) and sraddhasakti (capacity of right attitude of mind or belief). These capacities are non-different from it.1. In the machine of human body one feels the experience of another agency which defies the laws of nature, space, and time; there is something which is not physically analysable but is distinct from the object. So it is explained in the Jaina Agama that Jiva is endowed with energy, exertion, action, strength, effort and vigour, and it manifests its sentiency (Jivabhava) by the state of itself, 20 because Soul having an inherent attribute of consciousness attains cognition of infinite modes of all kinds of knowledge and those of wrong knowledge, those of self-awareness, etc.21 As to the point that the capacities of Jiva are non-different from it, the Jaina Agama explains that Soul is knowledge?? i. e. endowed with right knowledge in some respect and is also wrong knowledge. i. e. possessed of wrong knowledge in other respect and knowledge itself is invariably Soul, for consciousness (upayoga) is its inherent quality. Similarly, self-awareness (as one aspect of consciousness) and outside objects are correlated, because Soul is possessed of the capacity of taking note of the natural external objects; it is the 'knower'. It is also invariably self-awareness (darsana) and self-awareness is invariably Soul itself.2 3 In Jajna Philosophy Soul is studied from the following eight aspects of its capacities, namely dravyatma (soul as substance), kasayatma (Soul actuated by passion), yagatma (soul endowed with activity), upayogatma (soul endowed with consciousness), jnanatma (soul possessing knowledge), darsanatma (soul possessing self-awareness), caritratma (soul existing in conduct) and viryatma (soul endowed with energy). 24 It manifests itself in and through these stages of life. There exists psychologically an inter-relation among these eight aspects of Soul, for they are interconnected as different aspects of one and the same Soul-Substance. As for example, he who has dravyatma has in some respect kasayatma and he has not got it in other respect. But he who is endowed with kasayatma has invariably dravyatma.25 Life-essentials of Soul are represented by five senses, mental, vocal and bodily activities, duration of life and respiration. 28 Whatever things and behaviours it makes, such as samskaras (forces), etc. are reflected in it, one fine material body (paudgalik sarira) containing an impression of these forces is being formed by it, and that body exists with it, i. e. accompanies it at the time of taking up another new body.27 As a changing entity Soul always vibrates in different forms, moves further and goes to all directions, then it enters into the world; it agitates and transforms those conditions of living beings. 8 Soul is the agent of all acts of beings, for 18 kinds of sinful acts (act of killing up to the perverted attitude of mind) and the acts of desistance from them, different states of it (bhava), perception (avagraha), retention (dharana), exertion, action, etc., up to determinate and indeterminate consciousness of being do not take place without it. 29 Page #424 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 99 Jiva (Soul) experiences pleasure, pain, life and death through the agency of Pudgala (Matter).80 "From the empirical point of view a worldly soul draws in fine karmic matter in consequence of the activities of mind, body and speech and experiences their results."81 Here Jaina metaphysics throws light upon the theory of transmigration of Soul in terms of karmic matter an extraordinary conception which is not found in any other Indian system of thought. While commenting on the aphorism "Sukha-duhkhajivitamaranopagrahasca" of the Tattvarthadhigama-Sutra, Pujyapada Devanandi explains that "Not only is Matter the basis of pleasure, pain, life and death but one piece of Matter is capable of producing physical and chemical changes in another piece of Matter. This fact is connoted by the word "upagraha" in the Sutra. The examples cited here are the purification of bronze by the addition of certain ashes, the purification of water by the addition of an organic substance nirmali and tempering of steel with the help of water."32 Jiva, even being conscious and non-corporeal, becomes corporeal by its only activity of collected (formed) corporeal body upto the moment of the existence of such body.33 In regard to the relation of Soul with mind, speech and body, it is explained that speech and mind are non-soul, i, e. matters, for they are corporeal, non-conscious and non-living, and are associated with the spiritual being-Soul.34 As to its relation with body it is defined that Soul is body, i. e, identical with it, when the former exists in the latter, and non-soul (No-ata) is also body. It is both corporeal and non-corporeal, conscious and non-conscious, living and non-living and it is of beings and non-beings also.35 The body was destroyed in the past, it exists and undergoes transformation at present, and it will undergo transformation in future into the gross physical, gross physicai-cum-translocation, transformation, transformation-cumtranslocation, translocation, translocation-cum-karmic, and karmic bodies 36 in association with the spiritual being or self, i. e. Soul, for the dehin (possessor of body) existing in eighteen kinds of sinful acts up to determinate and indeterminate consciousness is Jiva and the very Jiva is known to be Jivatma (Soul of being).37 Umasvati explains that "The mundane souls help each other.'88 Acarya Pujyapada, while commenting on the aphorism "Parasparopagraho jivanam" of Umasvati, makes it clear that the master and his servant, the teacher and the taught are the examples of mutual obligation. The master helps the servant with money and the servant repays it through his humble service; a teacher renders a great service through his sound training and advice, while the taught repays it through his good conduct."89 According to the body, parimana (dimension or extent) of Soul decreases and increases. The decrease and increase of its parimana do not affect its fundamental substantiality; its basic essence remains the same as it is; only its parimana increases or descreases due to the difference of nimitta (cause). This is one kind of parinamavada (doctrine of transformation) and it is also Parinaminit yatavada (doctrine of permanence-in-change). Its other aspect is the decrease and increase of the mani. Page #425 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 100 J. C. Sikdar festation of the quality or capacity (or power) of Soul. Even though the fundamental capacity or inherent quality remains the same in its basic form, still there takes place less or more degrees of purity and impurity (suddhi and asuddhi) in it as a result of effort (puru sartha). It becomes of the nature of permanence-in-change of the capacity.40 It is revealed in the Vyakhyaprajnapti that the soul of an elephant and that of an insect (kunthu) are equal and same in respect of Soul-substance, although their bodies are different in size and extent.1 Soul pervades the body in which it exists, e. g. the whole bodies of tortoises, allegators, cows, men, buffaloes, etc., and even their inner parts cut into pieces are pervaded by the pradesas (units) of their respective souls.4 2 "Souls are existent in every iota of space beginning with one or more countless fractions of it up to the whole universe, i. e. if space is divided into countless points, the size of a soul can be so small as to occupy one or more of these points of space and in special cases the size of a single soul can fill the whole universe."43 la the Universe there is no such a place where there is no existence of souls having fine or gross bodies. 44 This view of Jaina philosophy on the nature of Soul has been severely criticised by Acarya Sankara with the following arguments that if a soul is equal in extent to its body, it is impossible that the same soul can enter into the bodies of a fly and an elephant.45 In fact, there is controversy amongst the philosophers regarding the precise part of the body which should be assigned as the seat of the Soul. Some think it is located in the heart; according to others, it is located in the head or in some specific brain centre. If this view is accepted, it is difficult to think how one could feel the bodily affections as its own. Since body grows from a microscopical size in the mother's womb to its full proportions to reincarnate into a new seed, it follows that the size of the soul cannot remain fixed. In the multitude of souls ( jivarasi) the inherent capacity of soul is accepted as one (equal); nevertheless, the manifestation of each one is not as such. It is conditional upon the strength of its efforts (purusartha) and other causes. This problem is dealt with in a round about way in the Vyakhyaprajnapti in this manner that there are stated to be eight aspects of Soul, namely dravyatma (soul as substance), kasayatma (soul having passion), yogatma (soul having activity), upayogatma (soul endowed with consciousness), jnanatma (soul endowed with knowledge), darsanatma (soul endowed with self-awareness), caritratma (soul existing in conduct), and viryatma (soul endowed with energy).16 It means that the basic capacity of Soul is one, namely consciousness, but it manifests itself in and through these stages. Soul is neither heavy nor light in regard to the weight of the material substance which maintains a specific gravity.4? It is imperishable, immortal and impenetrable; none can cause pain or destruction to it nor can cut its inner points (units) by touching it with hand or cutting it with a sharp weapon or burning it with fire; no weapon can enter into it. +8 The same views in regard to its imperishability, immortality and impenetrability are embodied in the Srimad Bhagavadgita in this way: "The soul is never born nor Page #426 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 101 dies; nor does it exist on coming into being for, it is unborn, eternal, everlasting and primeval; even though the body is slain, the soul is not.49 Weapons cannot cut it nor can fire burn it; water cannot drench it nor can wind make it dry50, for this soul is incapable of being cut; it is proof against fire, impervious to water, and undriable as well."61 It is explained in the Vyakhyaprajnapti that Soul is eternal from the point of view of time (kala) and non-eternal from that of the state of existence (gatl), as it is studied from its substantial and modal aspects, for it was in the past, is at present and will be in future, i. e. it is tralkalika, and it undergoes change or transformation (parinama) from one birth to another respectively. The similar view is also embodied in Srimad Bhagavadgita: "This soul is eternal, omnipresent, immovable, constant and everlasting", "As a man, discarding worn-out clothes, takes other new ones, likewise the embodied soul, casting off worn-out bodies, enters into others which. are new."54 Soul in finite from the aspects of dravya (substance) and ksetra (field or locus) and infinite from those of kala (time) and bhava (condition), because it is one single substance from the point of view of dravya and it is possessed of countless points (pradesas) and immersed in countless points of space of the Universe from that of ksetra, and it is infinite from that of kala and bhava, for it is traikalika and endowed with infinite modes of knowledge, self-awareness, conduct, neither heaviness nor lightness, etc.45 In a nutshell the nature of Jiva conceived in Jaina Philosophy is this that it is supersensuous, imperishable, immortal, impenetrable, non-corporeal, eternal as well as non-eternal, infinite but also finite, and dynamic in nature. It is to be observed. here that there is the sameness of Jaina Atmatattva (Principle of Soul) all along the course of its development. The tradition of Jina Parsvanatha and Jina Mahavira regarding Soul is continuing up to the present day, but the concept of Soul has changed to some extent, as is evidenced in the evolution of the doctrine "Tajjivam tacchariram" and that of the theory "Tam jivam tam sariram". In the early period the common people had simple thoughts and views: "That which is diva (Soul) is Sarira (body)." Following this conception Carvaka maintains that Jiva (conscious being) and sarira (body) do not exist after death, for he did not accept the doctrine of rebirth. But the Jainas admit soul as distinct from body and the theory of rebirth: hence they also accept both gross and fine bodies. As a result, they conceive the idea of the fine body (Karmanasarira) from the doctrine of rebirth of Jiva and accept the gross body, together with soul, from the conception of the prthivikaya (earthbody) up to the vanaspatikaya (plant-body) and trasakayika (body of mobile being). But later on it is found that body and soul of worldly beings (samsarinah) are nondifferent. Gradually the concept of Jivatma and Paramatma also was accepted by them. Consequently, they admit the degree (or difference-taratamya) of the mind of the one-sensed being. In the current of thought of men there took place the Page #427 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ J. C. Sikdar birth of meditation as a result of which the fourteen stages of spiritual development (gunasthana) was considered for the spiritual attainment, for when they accepted rebirth, then there arose the question of karmakanda (action), papa (demerit or vice) and punya (merit or virtue), svarga (heaven) and naraka (hell), austerity and meditation on Soul. 102 The Jaina view and the Samkhya-Yoga conception of the nature of Soul The study of the Samkhya-Yoga system of thought reveals that like Jaina Philosophy it accepts each individual soul endowed with beginningless and endless inherent consciousness.67 It admits the existence of infinite souls (i. e. plurality of souls) by conceiving soul as distinct due to the difference of body. That is to say, "The plurality of the spirits is established, because birth, death and organs are allotted separately, because there is no activity at one time, and because there are different modifications of the three attributes" The Jaina and Samkhya-Yoga systems differ on the point that the latter does not admit Soul's capacity of contraction and expansion as being equal to the extent. of the body or parinamitva (changeability) in consciousness from the point of view of substance as maintained by the former, but both of them accept the reality of consciousness (cetana-tattva) as unchangeable permanent (kutastha-mitya), eternal and all-pervading. The Samkhya-Yoga philosophy does not conceive any kind of guna (quality or attribute) or possibility of dharma (characteristic or change in Jivatativa (Sentient Principle) because of non-acceptance of kartriva-bhokirtva (doership and enjoyership) and gunuguni-bhava (relation of attribute and substratum of attribute), or dharmadharmi-bhava (relation of characteristic and possessor of characteristic), just as the doership and enjoyership in Soul, the decrease and increase or change in Qualities (gunas) as purity and impurity in it are found in the Jaina tradition. The Samkhya says: "And from that contrast it follows that the spirit is endowed with the characteristics of witnessing, isolation, indifference perception, and inactivity. Therefore, the non-intelligent linga becomes as if intelli gent on account of its contact with that (spirit). And although the activity belongs to the Attributes, yet the indifferent (spirit) seems as if it were an agent",5 Jaina metaphysics admits one material subtle body being formed around Soul, for it is regarded as the receiver of the impression of all karma-pudgalas (karmic matters) fallen on it as a result of auspicious or inauspicious mental effort or apprehension (adhyavasaya). That material body (karmana-sarira) becomes the container or the medium (material agency) of Soul from one birth to another. In the Samkhya-Yoga system, inspite of having accepted Soul or consciousness itself as unchangeable or immutable (aparinaml), indifferent spectator (alipta), devoid of Page #428 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 103 doership and all-pervading, the conception of each individual subtle body (lingasarira) per self (purusa) has been made to the cause of its rebirth. That subtle body itself only is the doer and enjoyer, the substratum of qualities, such as, knowledge and ignorance, merit and demerit, etc., like the soul of Jaina Philosophy; and it is having change as its decrease and is endowed with the capacity of contraction and expansion just as the Soul of the Jaina system possesses. In short it can be said that except the inherent capacity of consciousness, all those whatever characteristics (dha rmas), quality (guma) or modification (parinama) are existent in the Soul of Jaina metaphysics are accepted in the intellect (buddhitattva) or subtle body (lingasarira), of the Sakhya-Yoga Philosophy. "The subtle body (lingasarira), formed primevally, unimpeded, permanent, composed of intellect and the rest down to the subtle elements incapable of enjoyment, migrates and is endowed with disposition."60 According to Jaina Philosophy, Soul, though non-corporeal in its natural state, can become 'corporeal' in actualiiy by the non-different relation (tadatmya-yoga) of the corporeal karmic body, while the Sentient Principle (cetana-tattva) of the SamkhyaYoga is accepted to so much extreme point of view that no impression (reflection of the non-living substance or of corporeal subtle physical matter, which always exists in its contact, falls on it, but the reflection of Purusa (Self) on the transparent intellect (buddhi-tattva) and that of the characteristic existing in the intellect (buddhigatadharma) on Purusa (Self) are admitted by this system of thought because of their mutual relation of nearness (sannidhya), it is only supposed to be unreal and phenomenal for this reason. As for example, just as there does not take place any real shadow or impression of a portrait (citra) on the looking glass or mirror (akasa), just so the impression of Purusa (Self) on the intellect (buddhi-tattva) and vice versa should be regarded. 81 "Therefore, not only (spirit) is bound or liberated, nor does any) migrate. It is the Nature, abiding in manifold forms that migrates or is bound or liberated."62 The Jaina metaphysics accepts such capacities like knowledge, energy, selfawareness, etc., while the Samkhya-Yoga regards them as existing in the subtle body like intellect (buddhi-tativa), but not as inherent in the self (cetana-tattva). 3 In the Jaina system of thought, even though there being the capacity of each individual soul as equal, its manifestation is accepted according to the effort (purusartha) and cause (nimitta). Similarly, in the Samkhya-Yoga the subtle body or the intellect is regarded as the cause. That is, although all the intellects are having equal capacity in the natural form, still again, their manifestation is conditional upon the strength of distinction between body and Soul, effort and other cause. 8 4 The Jaina-Samkhya Views and the Nyaya-Vaisesika Conception of the Nature of Soul Like the Samkhya-Yoga Philosophy, the Nyaya-Vaisesika conceives beginningless and endless, infinite soul-substances as distinct by the difference of body;66 but having not accepted Soul as intermediate dimension (madhyama parimana) like the Jaina Page #429 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 104 J. C. Sikdar metaphysics, this system admits it as all-pervasive just as the Samkhya-Yoga regards it.& 8 The Nyaya-Vaisesika, having denied the idea of madhyama-parimana or contraction and expansion of Soul, accepts it as unchangeable permanent (kutastha-nitya) 67 from the point of view of substance like the Samkhya-Yoga, otherwise in that case it would have been non-eternal. Nevertheless, the Nyaya-Vaisesika agrees with Jaina Philosophy in regard to the relation of quality and substance (guna.guni or dharmadharmi) having fallen apart from the Samkhya-Yoga system in this respect, which accepts cetana (Self) as partless and devoid of any kind of quality (guna) or characteristic (dharma). It accepts Soul as the substratum of many qualities.68 In spite of there being its agreement with Jaina metaphysics in this respect, the NyayaVaisesika appears to differ from the former in other respects. The Jaina Philosophy, having accepted inseparable capacities like inherent eternal consciousness, bliss, energy, etc., in soul, admits theit ever newer modes at every moment, whereas the Nyava-Vaisesika system does not admit such inseparable inherent eternal capacities like consciousness (cetana), etc. in the Soul-Substance; nevertheless, it accepts knowledge, bliss, pain, desire, hatred, effort, merit, and demerit, etc., as the qualities possessed by Soul.60 The existence of these qualities continues up to the relation (i. e. existence) of the body and they are produced and destroyed. 70 These nine qualities of the SoulSubstance, namely intelligence, bliss and others conceived by the Nyaya-Vaisesika are of the status of the modes of the inherent capacity of Soul as formulated in Jaina Philosophy. Nevertheless, the basic difference between these two systems is that, according to the latter, the pure mode or transformation of the capacities like inherent consciousness (or sentiency) bliss, energy, etc., in the Soul-Substance or the continuous whole of their modes in it is taking place even in such state of its liberation when released from the body (videha-muktavastha) also, though there may not be the physical relation, connection or activity (sarira-yoga), whereas from the NyayaVaisesika point of view there is no possibility of any such pure or impure, momentary or permanent qualities like intelligence (buddhi), etc., in the Soul-Substance at the state of liberation from the body or the separation from the body, 71 because this philosophy does not accept the capacities like inherent consciousness, etc., in it like Jaina metaphysics. Here, though the Nyaya-Vaisesika Philosophy agrees with the Samkhya-Yoga on one point, it differs from the latter on the others The Samkhya-Yoga system accepts the Self as absolutely partless (niramsa) and unchangeable, permanent in itself (kutastha-nitya) anl self-manifested consciousness (svayam-prakasa-cetana-rupa). Hence, just as this philosophy regards it is devoid of any kind of relation of qualities like buddhi (intelligence), etc. in the worldly condition, so it is in the liberated state, whereas the Nyaya-Vaisesika philosophy does not accept Soul as natural consciousness; nevertheless, it conceives Soul as endowed with the qualities like buddhi (intelligence), etc. in the physical condition. But at the time of Page #430 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 105 liberation, because of there being the absence of such qualities in it, Soul becomes devoid of qualities (nirguna) in one respect just like the Self (Purusa) of the SamkhyaYoga. That is to say, in the liberated condition?? Soul, having been bereft of qualities with the marks of origination and destruction by all means, becomes attributeless substance like the Self (Purusa) of the Samkhya-Yoga. Similarly, according to the NyayaVaisesika philosophy, the liberated Soul becomes akasa-kalpa. But between these two systems, the difference is this much only that akasa, being a non-corporeal even, is accepted as material (bhautika),78 while Soul is non-corporeal and non-material. There is no iota of difference between the emancipated soul and akasa (space or ether) from the point of view of the absence of inherent consciousness and the qualities like buddhi (intelligence), etc., or of their modes. Akasa is one single whole, while the liberated Soul is infinite in number. This numerical difference comes into thought. The Nyaya-Vaisesika system has the remarkable similarity and dissimilarity with the Jaina and Samkhya-Yoga Philosophies in regard to many other aspects of the nature of Soul. Jaina metaphysics accepts the natural doership and enjoyership in Soul; so do the Nyaya-Vaisesika admit such capacities in it. But the doership and enjoyership of Soul of the former system continue even in its perfect liberated condition, while such is not the case with the latter.74 So long there is the body, the origination and destruction of the qualities like knowledge (or intelligence), desire, etc., take place in Soul, there exist the doership and enjoyership in it up to the end 78, but there does not remain any trace of them in its liberated state. Similarly, Soul as conceived in the Nyaya-Vaisesika becomes identical with the Self (Purusa) of the Samkhya-Yoga in its liberated condition. The concept of the doership and enjoyership in Soul of the Nyaya-Vaisesika is of different kind. It accepts the Soul-Substance as unchangeable permanent (kutasthanitya); hence the doership and enjoyership of any kind can not be explained to take place in it directly. For this reason, this philosophy brings about such doership and enjoyership in it by accepting the origination and destruction of the qualities in it. It says: "When there is the inherence of the qualities like knowledge, desire, effort, etc., in the soul, then it is the doer and enjoyer."76 But in the absence of these qualities by all means in the liberated condition of Soul, there does not exist any perceptible or conceivable doership and enjoyership in it. Nevertheless, such usage was made from the point of view of the past. Like the Jaina system the Nyaya-Vaisesika, even having accepted the doership and enjoyership of Soul, can explain its kutastha-nit yata (unchangeable permanence), for, according to its views, the qualities like knowledge, etc. are by all means distinct from it (Soul-Substance). Therefore, there take place origination and destruction of its qualities, even then this system brings about its absolute permanence conceived by its own theory because of the view of distinction of the quality and its substratum. The Samkhya tradition does not accept the existence of any kind of qualities in the Self for explaining its absolute permanence. And there where comes up the question of change 14 Page #431 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 106 J. C. Sikdar or another state brought about by the relation of another one, it is done or devised by this system analogically or imaginatively. Whereas the Nyaya-Vaisesika explains the absolute permanence of Soul by another method. It has admitted the qualities as inherent in the Soul-Substance; even though they are subject to origination and destruction, still this system has denied any kind of real change in the substratum-substance, taking place due to them. Its argument is this that the quality is by all means different from the substratum-substance, hence its origination and destruction are neither the origination and destruction nor another state of the Soul-Substance. In this way the Samkhya-Yoga and Nyaya-Vaisesika systems propounded the theory of the unchangeable permanence of the real entity-Soul in their respective manners, but the basic current of the doctrine of absolute permanence in regard to it is preserved as one and the same in these two traditions. Like the Jaina Philosophy, the Nyaya-Vaisesika accepts this view also that samskara (impression or force of the past action) of a being falls on the Soul-Substance because of the auspicious and inauspicious or pure and impure actions of an individual being, but as the Jaina system explains the fine material body (karmana-sarira) having the reflection or shadow (chaya) of that samskara (impression or force), the NyayaVaisesika does not do so, nevertheless, it had to conceive something because of its accepting the doctrine of rebirth of Soul. In accordance with this view it admits that Soul cannot go and come on account of its being all pervasive, but one atomic mind" (or atom-like mind) is associated with each soul; it goes by moving to the place of taking up another body on the destruction of one body (i.e. the previous body). This change of place by the mind is the rebirth of Soul. According to the Jaina Philosophy, Soul itself goes to another place of its rebirth along with its subtle material body. (karmana-karira), while the Nyaya-Vaisesika maintains that the meaning of rebirth is not the change of place of Soul, but the change of place of the mind. Here the process of determining rebirth of the Samkhya-Yoga system compares well with that of the Nyaya-Vaisesika, for the former conceives that the intellect (buddhi) or the subtle body (linga-sarira) which is the substratum of the qualities like merit and demerit, etc., and which being madhyama-parimana (intermediate dimension) is also motive at the time of death; it goes from one place to another by giving up the gross body, while the Nyaya-Vaisesika, having accepted eternal atomlike mind as motive, but not such subtle body of the Samkhya-Yoga, has accounted for the process of rebirth of Soul. According to Jaina metaphysics, Soul has been admitted as making movement with the subtle karmic body for rebirth, but there is no place for capacity of making any kind of motion in Soul conceived in the SamkhyaYoga and Nyaya-Vaisesika systems of thought. They maintain that the rebirth of Soul means the going and coming of its upadhi (attribute). Like the Jaina Philosophy, the Nyaya-Vaisesika admits the real elevation or rise and fall of Soul according to the dimension-magnitude of knowledge, belief (right Page #432 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 107 attitude) and energy, i. e. effort or purity-impurity of human effort in it, but not like the Samkhya-Yoga tradition, as supposed by the relation of the attributive subtle body. The Nature of Soul: Buddhist View In order to deal with the nature of Soul in the Buddhist Philosophy, it is to be noted that the central idea of Lord Buddha that he could not perceive the permanence of any entity or substance made a tremendous influence on the later entire retinue of his followers. So, one undivided theory in regard to the nature of Soul did not remain fixed in the Buddhist Nikayas as it happend in the case of the Jaina, SamkhyaYoga, and Nyaya-Vaisesika systems of thought. 20 In the history of the Buddhist Philosophy or the Buddhist determination of reality in regard to the nature of Soul there are found five divisions: (1) PudgalaVartamangnairatmyavada, (2) Pudgalastivada, (3) Traikalika-dharmavada and dharmavada, (4) Dharma-nairaimya or Nihsvabhava or Sunyavada, and (5) The Vijnanavada. The Pali Pitaka says in one voice that the reality whose determination the other thinkers make in the form of Soul is like the momentary combination of mutually undivided feelings, ideas, volitions and other faculties and pure sensation or general consciousness." That is to say, there is no Soul apart from feelings, ideas, volitions, etc. The Buddhists make mention of it by the term 'nama'. In the Upanisads" the words 'nama-rupa' appear jointly and also a reference is there that any fundamental reality manifests itself in the nature of nama (name) and rupa (form). Lord Buddha did not accept any such different fundamental reality from which there may be the manifestation of nama, but he admitted nama' as an independent reality like the rupa; and this reality also is beginningless and endless because of being first indicated as aggregate (samghata-rupa) and bound in issues (santatibaddha). Prof. Vidhusekhara Bhattacharya this way explains the point: "By name 'nama' we understand primarily the mind (citta, vijnana, manas (consciousness) and secondarily the mentals (caitasika dharmas), i, e. feeling, perception, and the co-effects of consciousness (vedana, samjna, samskara). As the mind with the mentals 'inclines' (namati) towards its objects, it is called nama"." It can be observed in the evidence of the Pitaka that the stream of the aggregate of feelings, ideas, volitions and other faculties and consciousness is continuously flowing. This theory is known as Pudgala-natratmyavada because of there being no place of the permanent reality of the Soul-Substance (Pudgala dravya) in this consciousnesscentred current. But on the other side, there were four groups of the Buddhist order and many of the advocates of the doctrine of eternal Soul. When there might have begun the charge of Soullessness (nairatmya) from their quarters (four groups of the Buddhist order) and some people holding the view of the doctrine of eternality of Soul, might have joined the Buddhist order, then they again established the doctrine of Soul in their own manner. This doctrine is met with is the Kathavatthu; the Tattvasamgraha Page #433 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 108 J. C. Sikdar etc., as the opponent of the Ekadesiya Buddhists. It is stated in the Tattvasamgraha that "some people who regard themselves as Bauddhas describe the soul by the name. of 'Pudgala' and declare it to be neither the same as, nor different from the Skandha, thought-phases."86 That is the Vatsiputriyas postulate the soul under the pretended name of 'Pudgala' which cannot be said to be either 'the same as' or 'different from' the 'thought-phases'. These Sammitiyas or Vatsiputriyas said that there is Pudgala (personality) or Jiva-dravya (Soul-Substance) in a real sense, but when they were asked what is the existential form (astitva rupa) as such, then they made denial of it. In this way, it is true that the doctrine of Pudgalasti came up itself within the Buddhist Order. But it could not adjust itself with the basic central point of view of Buddha; at last its name died out consequently. The doctrine of Pudgala-nairatmya was developing in many forms. The main. thought was how could it stand before the advocates of the doctrine of eternal Soul and how could the account for rebirth and bondage, liberation, etc., be made in a comprehensive manner, besides giving reply to the charges of the opponents against it. Out of this thought there emerged Sarvastivada (the doctrine of the traikalika existence of all entities). The advocates of this doctrine made the application of 'namatattva' (the Principle of consciousness) by the word 'citta' also, and determined this citta (the aggregates of feelings, ideas, volitions and other faculties and pure sensation or consciousness) by dividing it into many co-born new comers (i. c. co-effects or issues) and common and uncommon elements. This doctrine of Sarvastivadins made the subtlest analysis of citta (mind) and of its various conditions or caitasikas (mental faculties), but in spite of adhering to its own fundamental doctrine of momentariness, it established the tralkalikata (the existence of three points of time) of each individual citta (mind) and caltasika (mental faculty) in its own manner by admitting the past and future times." For example, "on the ground of the gold continuing to be the same, when it comes to be regarded as something permanent to some Buddhists like Dharmatrata and others, (they) hold (on the basis of this) that the thing (by itself permanent) passes through diverse states." 8 In the face of this view there began again an opposition to this doctrine of the Sarvastivadins that Buddha was only the advocate of the doctrine of momentariness of entities and the present time, then how could the theory of the three points of time (traikalikata) be reconciled with that view of the Master? The admission of the existence of three points of time was only the entrance of doctrine of eternality through the back door. Out of this thought there emerged the doctrine of Sautrantikas. It maintained the postulation of the entire developed structure of elements of citta-caitasikas (mind and mental faculties) but freed these elements (dharmas) by all means from the fold of the traikalika existence and established its view of only present existence."" Thus, there went on a strong mutual dispute among the Buddhist in regard to Reality. Some established the doctrine of Sat (Existence); others founded an entirely Page #434 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 109 opposite doctrine of Asat (Non-Existence); some did both; some established the theory of anubhava (experience or realization). Similarly, many groups, holding Reality as permanent, non-permanent, both (permanent and non-permanent), not-both and one, many, both one and many), not-both, etc., were continuing. It appeared to Nagarjuna that it was not proper to fall in the line of these groups in accordance with the middle path of Buddha. This thought led him to the direction of Reality (tattva) which was free from these catuskotis (groups or points of disputation). And consequently he established Sunyavada (the doctrine of essencelessness or voidness of all appearances) out of this deliberation. 'Sunya' means dharma-nairatmya or ninsvabhavata. It was not the middle path to be bound in any Dharmin (substratum) or Dharma (element) and in this or that side. That which is Transcendental Reality is free from points of disputation or groups (catuskotis) and is only apprehensible by knowledge. For this reason, even while determining sunyavada, he maintained madhyamapratipada or the doctrine of spiritual elevation also. After this came at last the Yogacara school to which it appeared as such that Sunyavada did not make a determination of any Reality by bhavatmaka (thoughtful or emotional) or methodical way. Consequentiy, nama-tattva of Buddha, which centred on consciousness; also became as void (sunyavat) in the views of the people. Certainly, such a thought led the Yogacarins to the side of the doctrine of consciousness. They established nama, citta, cetana, or atma (mind, consciousness or soul), whatever one calls them, as the only vij napti (consciousness or beginningless root ideas or instinct of mind). The speciality of this theory from the first four doctrines as discussed above is this that the early Buddhists, having accepted the actual existence of the external matter apprehended by pure sensation or the senses (vijnanabahya-indriyagrahya-bhutabhautika-tattva), used to think on the problem, while the Vijnanavadins-old and new, did not admit the separate existence of such external matters and said that the corporeal reality (murtatattva) which the Buddhist and other than the Buddhists called 'Rupa' (Matter) is one aspect of nature of consciousness itself (vijnana) only, but it appears to be different froin consciousness due to ignorance (avidya) desire (vasana) and hypocrisy (samvrti). In this way the Buddhist tradition regarding the nature of Soul at last became established in the Vijnanavada of the Yogacara School, after having crossed many stages, and Dharmakirti, santaraksita, and Kamalasila made successful attempts to make it comprehensible by the intellect.o 1 Whatever branch of the Buddhist Philosophy may be the real distinction of the issues of citta (Citta-santana) of its own doctrine or of Jiva (Soul) by the difference of body is desirable to it. The Vijnanadvaitavadins, who did not accept anything other than consciousness as real, also followed the postulation of the distinction of Soul by the difference body,'% having accepted the real mutual distinction of the issues of consciousness. This postulation was one general characteristic of the Sramanic tradition. In regard to the dimension of Citta, Vijnana-santati or Jiva, the Buddhist tradition did not bring forward any real thought by which it can certainly be said in this Page #435 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 110 J. C. Sikdar way that it is anuvadin (the advocate of the atomic dimension of soul) or deha-parimanavadin (the advocate of the doctrine of the dimension of Soul up to the extent of body). Nevertheless, it is stated in some places in the Buddhist works that 'Hadayavatthu' (heart-entity) is the seat of substratum of Citta or Vijnana. From this fact it can be said that, though the Buddhists might not have made any genuine consideration of Citta or Jivatattva from the point of view of dimension, they still might have accepted the impact of consciousness in the form of feelings like pleasure, pain, etc., pervading the whole body. It appears that, as the systems of thought like the Jaina, Samkhya-Yoga, etc., admit the subtle body, moving from one place of birth to another, in order to explain the process of rebirth in their respective manners, so too the Buddhists might have accepted a similar process from the beginning. If anybody, having died, is just to be reborned at another place, then a Gandharva 98 waits up to seven days for a favourable occasion. On the basis of the conception of Gandharva, the discussion on the antarabhava-sarira (the body of intermediate stage of life) has been made by the Buddhists, and the view was supported by Vasubandhu and others.9While Buddhaghosa explained the utpatti (production or birth) of pratisandhi by giving some example, without accepting any such antara-bhava-sarira. The Upanisadic view on the Nature of Soul In regard to the nature of Soul and of the Brahman difference of conception and of thought is noticable in different early Upanisads and several times at different places of the same Upanisad. It can then be said that the voice of the entire Upanisads is not one and the same in this respect. For this reason, many separate developments of thought on the nature of Soul went on from the very start among the thinkers holding the basis of the concept of Soul in the Upanisads. Out of these developments Vadarayana composed the Brahmasutra for the establishment of his own cherished views and mentioned also some other views which previously were current. Many commentaries were being written on it, and the bud of thought, which was in existence from the beginning, blossomed forth in the form of further explanations, but these early commentaries today are not found just as they originally were. As soon as Acarya Sankara wrote a commentary on the Brahmasutra, etc., and established the doctrine of Maya (Illusion), a reaction started again. The thinkers to whom this Mayavada was not acceptable wrote commentaries on the Brahmasutra by opposing this doctrine, having followed the path of any one of the previous teachers. There is more or less mutual difference of views in their thoughts; some difference of views is found in the application of definition and example : Even then all of them are agreed upon one point that Sankara, says that such Soul has only the illusory (mayika) experience, not real, for it is also real, and this Soul having the real existence is also distinct by the difference of body and permanent. 96 Page #436 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy 111 Every Acarya like Sankara and others took mainly the basis of the Upanisads in support of his views and produced one and the same reading in different places in different manners. Like this many diverse development of thoughts are found in the Upanisads but it can be said by making their classification that the first is the party of Acarya Sankara, the second is that of Madhva, and all the remaining Acaryas are in the third group. Sankara, not concending that there is any really real existence except Brahman, explains the multiplicity of individual souls as experienced in practical life in terms of Maya (Illusion) or Avidyasakti (power of Nescience). This power also is not independent of the Brahman. Hence, according to his view, the mutual distinction between Soul and Brahman, is not realdeg7 (tattvika). Madhva maintained an opposite view to that of Acarya Sankara in regard to Soul by asserting that it is not imaginary but is real, and it is also distinct from the Brahman. In this way the view of Madhva finds place in the doctrine of infinite eternal Souls.8* Bhaskara99 and all other Acaryas actually accept Soul, but as a modification, an effect or a part of the Brahman. The modification, effect, or part, however, may be due to the power of the Brahman, but they are not at all illusory. Thus, the development on the concept of Soul went on progressing in the thinking of different Acaryas. The current of the Vedantic thought regarding the concept of Soul has continued in the traditions of aiming at Monism, namely, Kevaladvaita (Absolute Monism), Satyopadhi-advaita, Visistadvaita, Dvaitadvaita, Avibhagadvaita, Suddhadvaita and Acintabhedabheda, and it is also finding support in the form of Dvaitavada (Dualism). Soul is nothing independent of the Brahman. (It is nothing at all). Hence, according to Sankara, the (multiplicity of) individual Souls and their mutual difference are both unreal. Sankara, admitting the Brahman to be the only real Reality, explains the multiplicity of individual souls as also the multiplicity (i. e. the multiplicity exhibited in) the world in terms of Maya (Illusion). Hence, according to his view, individual soul is not independent and real entity. It is rather #mere appearance of the really real Brahman, an appearance due to the association of Maya, Avidya (Nescience) or Antahkarana (internal organ). Even this appearance ceases to be there with the individual soul's realization of its own identity with the Brahman, Absolute Monism has to make a possibility of mutual distinction of individual souls just as it has to make a possibility of the relation of Soul with the Brahman because of there being only pure and undivided consciousness as its objective. Besides this, it has to determine the transmigration of Soul from body to body in order to effect rebirth. At the root, when there is only one transcendental reality and many kinds of distinction are to be made, then its only way is left to take the support of Maya or Avidya. Page #437 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 112 J. C. Sikdar The disciples of Acarya Sankara and his commentators conceived many ideas about the nature of Soul; they appear to be contradictory to one another many a times. Some of their conceptions are given below : Pratibimbavada :-Soul is conceived by some Acaryas like idyaranya Svami and others in their respective manners as the reflection of the Brahman. Some accept such reflection as existing in (or deriving from) ignorance (avidyagata); some admit it as existing in the internal sense-organ or the mind-substance (antahkaranagata); the third one regards it as existing in non-intelligence (ajnanagata). Thus, Pratibimbavada (Doctrine of the reflection of the Brahman) has been supported in different forms. 100 : Avacchedavada :-Some Acaryas, having put the word 'Avaccheda' in place of 'Pratibimba' say that the Brahman reflected an the antahkarana (internal senseorgan or mind-substance), etc., is not Soul but the Brahman narrowed or conditioned by the limitations of the antahkarana (antahkaranavacchinna-Brahman) only is the nature (svarupa) of Soul. 101 Brahmajivavada :--This doctrine maintains that Soul is neither the reflection (pratibimba) of the Brahman or its limited condition (avaccheda), but the unmodified Brahman itself is respectively Soul due to the cause of the spiritual ignorance as well as the Brahman because of the knowledge of spiritual truth.102 Thus, these three views are mainly prevalent among the Kevaladvaitavadins in regard to the nature of Soul. According to Bhaskara, the Brahman transforms Itself into Soul like the universe by Its various kinds of powers. So Soul is the modification of the Brahman and is endowed with activity, i. e. it is true because of being born of satyopadhi (limitation or condition of truth).103 Even though the Brahman is one, still Its modifications may be many; there is no contradiction between oneness and manifoldness or multiplicity. 104 Just as one and the same sea is perceived as many in the form of waves, so is Soul the part and modification of the Brahman and there is the real existence of it insofar as it exists in association with ignorance, desires, and actions. 105 On the cessation of ignorance this Soul, which is atomic in nature, realises oneness or identity with the Brahman. Ramanuja, the advocate of Visistadvaitavada (qualified Monism), having conceived Soul, like the universe as the unmanifest body of the Brahman at the root, explains that unmanifest to be the manifest Soul and manifest prapanca in succession. All these that the unmanifest power of consciousness (cit-sakti) attains the form of the manifest soul and acts also, happen due to the cause of Parabrahma Narayana 106 who exists in both fine and gross, inanimate and animate substances by pervading them. "The Self is often called jnana, or consciousness, because of the fact that it is self-revealing as consciousness."107 As the individual souls and the inanimate Page #438 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Concept of "Jiva (Soul)" in Jaina Philosophy creation are parts of the Brahman, "so their identity (abheda) with Brahman", becomes primary as their difference (bheda), inasmuch as the substance may be considered to be different from its attributes, "108 As Dvaitadvaitavadin (advocate of the doctrine of the Absolute as unity in difference), Nimbarka accepts the modification of Parabrahman in the form of infinite souls, even though he regards Parabrahman as non-different essence or nature (abhinnasvarupa). "Just as the life force or prana manifests itself into various kinds of conative and cognative sense-functions, yet keeps its own independence, integrity and difference from them, so the Brahman also manifests itself through the numberless spirits and matter without losing itself in them."10" These souls are not imposed (aropita), as the Brahman is at once one with and different from the souls. 113 According to the doctrine of Avibhagadvaita of Vijnanabhiksu, Purusa (Self) is beginningless and independent like Prakrti, even then it cannot exist as separate or distinguishable from the Brahman.110 All souls exists as undivided with It and are regulated by Its power. 11 Vallabha, the Suddhadvaitavadin, says that like the Universe, Soul too is the real modification of the Brahman. It has manifested Itself by Its own will with the preponderance of the elements of being, consciousness, and bliss (saccidananda) in Its three forms as matter, soul, and the Brahman. In spite of such modification born of Its will, It exists only as unmodified and pure.112 According to Sri Caitanya also, the Brahman manifests Itself as infinite souls by virtue of Its Jivasakti (the power represented by the pure selves). The relation of these souls with the Brahman is bhedabheda (identity-cum-difference), 118 but it is unthinkable (acintaniya), for the Brahman exists one with Itself and yet produces the universe through Its own unthinkable, indeterminable, and inscrutable power.114 All the doctrines from that of Bhaskara to that of Caitanya maintain that Soul is atomic in nature and size; it becomes liberated, when there takes place the destruction of ignorance by knowledge, devotion, etc. In the liberated condition it realizes identity or oneness with the Brahman, i.c. Its true nature, in one or other form.115 All the Acaryas, having advocated anujiva (atomic soul) makes the tenability of rebirth of Soul brought about by the subtle body. Madhva, even though being a Vedantin, does not take recourse to any kind of Monism or non-difference (identity). On the basis of Upanisads and other works he establishes a theory that Soul is atomic (anu) and infinite, but because of being independent and eternal, it is neither the modification of Parabrahman, nor Its effect, nor its part. When Soul becomes free of ignorance it realizes the lordship of the Brahman or Visnu.116 15 Page #439 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 114 J. C. Sikdar A critical study of the nature of Soul as conceived by the Indian systems of thought reveals that the Jaina conception of Soul appeals to the common sense, besides its metaphysical value. Its importance lies in the fact that it reflects the doctrine of animism by admitting six kayajivas perva ded by Soul, namely prthivikaya-jiva (earthbodied being), apkaya-jiva (water-bodied being), tejakaya-jiva (fire-bodied being), vayukaya-jiva (air-bodied being), vanispatikaya-jiva (plant-bodied being) and trasakayajiva (mobile being), as they exist in Nature.

Page #445 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ "NATAPUTTA' IN EARLY NIRGRANTHA LITERATURE M. A. Dhaky The Pali canon of the Buddhists refers to Jina Vardhamana Mahavira as *Niggantha Nataputta' (Ceylonese version) or 'Niggantha Nataputta' (Burman version). The appelation 'Nataputta' is after Vardhamana's clan-nomen Nata', Jnat;; the prefixed term 'Niggantha' (Nirgrantha) alludes to the Sramanic Church of which he was the leader. No scholar, however, seems to have investigated in depth as to the situation as it obtains in regard to this specific (clanic) appelation inside the literature of the Nirgranthas. The present paper addresses itself to exploring this particular aspect of inquiry. The earlier texts of the Ardhamagadhi canon do contain clear as well as copious references to 'Nataputta' (Inatnputra, scion of the Jnats clan). The broad temporal bracket of the relevant passages (or verses as the case may be) inside the different texts is c. B. C. 250-A. D. 250. While this epithet virtually disappears after that period, the reminiscences of it echo in the post-Gupta, pre-medieval and medieval commentaries, laxicons, and sometimes also in the hymns, the phase with which the present paper shall not deal. Unlike the Buddhist references which allude to Mahavira singularly by his clan epithet, the early Nirgrantha canonical texts employ it alongside a large variety of other honorifics and epithets. Moreover, the Nirgranthas had not needed to prefix the qualificatory Niggantha' to his clan epithet 'Nataputta' since for them he was not an outsider but the leader of their own Order, Nirgrantha Church. For them it, therefore, went without specifically so saying. The earliest pertinent references to Nataputta figure inside the two relatively later chapters of the Acaranga (Book I) which of course do not seem later than the third and the second century B. C. The eighth chapter's eighth lecture (uddesa) therein refers to 'Nataputta' in a verse : ayaM se avare dhamme nAtaputtena saahite| AyavajjaM paDiyAraM vijahejjA tidhA tidhA / --31ETTIT, TA FPIFFET, C.C.219 Next the "Uvadhana-sutta" ("Upadhana-sutra", c. 3rd-2nd cent. B. C.), which forms 'Chapter 9' (Book I) of the selfsame work, twice refers to this epithet (once as 'Natasuta') in one and the same verse : Page #446 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 'Nataputta' in Early Nirgrantha Literature fe madhukathAsu samayamhi nAtasute visoge akkhu / etAti se urAlAti gacchati nAtapute asaraNAe // In the Sutrakrtanga (Book 1), several important references (c. 3rd-2nd cent. B. C.) containing this appelation occur : moreover, the variant 'Natiputta', and the abbreviation 'Nata', besides the usual 'Nataputta' also figure. uccAvatAni gacchaMtA ganbhamessaMta'naMtaso / nAtapute mahAvIre evamAha jinottame || - AcArAMga, prathama skandha, 9.1.50. je eta caraMti AhitaM nAtenaM mahatA mahesiNA / uTThita te samuTThitA annonnaM sAraMti dhammao // 16 evaM se udAhu anuttaranANI anuttaradaMsI anuttaranANadaMsanadhare arahA nAtapute bhagavaM vesAlIe viyAhite // 121 -- sUtrakRtAMga 1.2.3.22. (The variant 'Natiputta' is the result of pronouncing 'Jnatr' as Jnatri' as is done in Hindi, Bangla, etc., and not as Jnatru' or 'Jnatra ( rural ) ' as rendered in Gujarati, Oriya, etc.) Also in the "Mahavira-stava" (c. 2nd cent. B. C.) inside the selfsame agama, a question is thus asked in regard to Nataputta's knowledge and insights: kataM ca nANaM taM daMsanaM se sIlaM kataM nAtasutassa AsI / nAsinaM bhikkhu jathAtathenaM athAsutaM brUhi jathA nisaMtaM // sudaMsana sesa jaso girissa pavuccatI mahato pavvatassa / etovame samaNe nAtatte jAtI - jaso - daMsana-nANasIle || - sUtrakRtAMga 1.1.2.27. - sUtrakRtAMga 1.2.2.26. -- sUtrakRtAMga 1.6.2 Next, in the same hymn, Nataputta's dimensions of glory are compared with those of the Sudarsana-giri ( Sumeru-parvata) : dAnAna seTTha abhayappadAnaM saccesu yA aNavajjaM vadaMti / tave yA uttama baMbhaceraM loguttame bhagavaM nAtapute // -- sUtrakRtAMga 1.6.14 And thereafter it is said: "Just as lending protection (abhayadana) is best of helps, an unhurting right utterance is best in the category of truth-telling, and celebacy (brahmacarya) is best among austerities, so is best Bhagavan Nataputta among the world :" -- sUtrakRtAMga 1.6.23 Page #447 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 122 M. A. Dhaky And finally the following verse in the selfsame hymn once more refers to Nataputta : "And just as the one who possesses seven lavas (in the five ultimate heavenly worlds) are best among those beings who remain in stable state, and as the heaven Sudharma's is the finest of all assembly-halls, and among all orders the one that leads to the path of liberation is the best, so is Nataputta matchless (among the "knowers'): ThitINa seTThA lavasattamA yA sabhA sUdhammA va sabhANa seThA / nivvANa seTThA jatha savvadhammA nAtaputtA paramatthi nANI // -sUtrakRtAMga 1.6.24 Also in Book II of the Sutrakstanga, in the chapter "Ardrakiya" (c. 3rd2nd cent. B. C.) references to Samana Nataputta and Isino Nataputta figure : pannaM jatA vaNie udayaTThI Atassa hetu pagareti saMgaM / tatovame samaNe nAtaputte icceva me hotI matI viyakkA // -sUtrakRtAMga 2.6.19 savve si jIvAna dayaTThatAe sAvajja dosaM parivajjayaMtA / tassaMkiNo isiNo nAtaputtA udiTThabhattaM parivajjayaMti // -sUtrakRtAMga 2.6.40 The Dasavaikalika-sutra also refers to Nataputta in its chapter on "Pindesana" (c. 3rd-2nd cent. B. C.) which dwells upon monastic rules for begging food and permissible alms. The two verses cited below (without translation) is the first case in point : etaM ca dosaM daThUnaM nAtaputtena bhAsitaM / aNumAtaM pi medhAvI mAyAmosaM vivajjae / --vazavakAlikasUtra 5.2.49 viDamubbheimaM loNaM tellaM sappi ca phANitaM / na te sannihimicchaMti nAtaputtavacoratA / / -dazavakAlikasUtra 6.17 The next two verses claim that, if clothes, begging bowl, blanket, and the feet-cleaner are accepted (by a friar) for the sake of modesty and for the maintenance of ascetic practices, it cannot be construed as possession (parigraha); because it is in the final analysis) the "attachment which is possession par excellence as enjoined by Nataputta': . jaM pi vatthaM ca pAtaM vA kaMbalaM pAdapuMchanaM / taM pi saMjama-lajjaTThA dhAreMti parihare vi ca // na so pariggaho vutto nAtaputtena taainaa| mucchA pariggaho vutto iti vutaM mahesiNA // -dazavakAlikasUtra 6.19-20 Page #448 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 'Nataputta' in Early Nirgrantha Literature 123 In the famous "sa-bhikhu" chapter of this work, Nataputta is once more referred to in connection with the six living substantialities (sad[ Jiwa]nikaya), the five great vows (panca-mahavratas) and the fifty kinds of channels for control. ( sari vara) over passions: rotiya nAtaputtavacanaM atasame manejjA chappi kAe / paMca ca phAse mahatvatAni paMcAsavasaMbarae je sabhikkhU || -vazayakAlika sUtra, 10.5. In the Uttaradhyayana-sutra, the reference to Nataputta figures only once, as an ending sentence to its chapter six: This same sentence also figures in the Sutraklanga ( 1.2.3.22), cited in the foregoing. In both cases this seems a later addition, probably of c. first century B.C.-A.D.", though it is hard to determine. which text was the first to receive it. Among the last works to notice Nataputta' is the Vyakhyaprajnapti, a scholiastic compilation very largely of c. 2nd-3rd cent. A.D., which uses earlier sources and occasionally incorporates phrases in the style of c. 1st cent. B.C.-A.D., particularly in its kathanuyoga passages. The work in the first place, and at two separate but otherwise identical situations, brings in Sramana Nataputta as the expositor of the five existentialities (pancastikayas) and statements about which of them possess form and which other are formless; this figures inside the 'Kaludayaprocha' passage where Nataputta (sometimes with the qualifying word 'Sramapa') is five times mentioned :3 evaM khalu samaNe nAtapute paMca atvikAe panaveti dhammatthikArya adhammatyikAyaM jIvatdhikArya poggalAtthikAyaM AgAsatthikAyaM / tatya naM nAtapute cattAri asthikAe ajIvakAe pannaveti, dhammatvikArya adhammatvikArya AgAsatthikArya poggala tthikArya | evaM ca samaNe nAtapute jIvatvikA arUvikArya jIvakAyaM pannaveti / tatya naM samaNe nAtapute cattAri avikAe arUvikAe pannaveti dhammatvikArya adhammatkiArya AgAsatyikAyaM jIvatyikAyeM / egaM ca naM samaNe nAtapute poggalatthakArya rUvikArya ajIvakArya panna veti / Also, in the querries of the sramapopasaka Maddua, Sramana Natapulta' once again figures in connection with the exposition of the five existentialities. (The date of this phrase may be the same as the last-noted.) evaM khalu mayA ! tava dhammAyarie dhammovaesae samaNe nAtapute paMca asthikArya pannaveti'........ In a long passage concerning Somila brahmana, Sramana Nataputta once again appears in a phrase, though the passage may not be very early and in point Page #449 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 124 M. A. Dhaky of fact may be belong to the 2nd or 3rd century A.D. since it incorporates a term purvanupurvis : evaM khalu samaNe nAtaputte puvvAnupubbi caramAne gAmAnugAmaM dUijjamAne suhaMsuhenaM..............."(ityAdi) Contemporaneous to the last noted, and final reference to "Nataputta' is to be discerned in the third appendix "Bhavana" in the second book of the Acarangasutra: tenaM kAlenaM tenaM samayenaM samaNe bhagavaM mahAvIre nAte nAtaputte nAtakulavinivvatte videhe videhadinne facevta facerunt atei atentfer face for ...**** (scaifa,) After this, references to 'Nataputta' are virtually absent in the agamas. Notes and References 1. Besides Vira and Mahavira, he is also called Buddha, Rsi, Maharsi, Muni, Mahamuni, Kasyapa (after his gotra), etc. 2. In the Dasavaikalika-sutra, the whole chapter is in the ancient Vaitaliya metre, the sentence appears as verse; but since it has no metrical consistency, it creates unconformity. The next verse numbered 23 seems an interpolation by virtue of its style, wording, and content. In point of fact this chapter of the Dasavaikalika ends with the verse 21. The whole of the chapter 6 of the Uttaradhyayana is in Anustubha metre, the end marked by the sentence under discussion appears separately in prose form with nothing after that. 3. While the Vyakhya-prajnapati's main bulk is stylistically dateable to the 2nd-3rd cent. A.D., its Kathanuyoga passages and chapters, some of which could be of the 1st, 2nd, originally belonged to other works; these have been shunted to this work possibly in the period between the late fourth and the early sixth century A.D. 4. There is no evidence that Mahavira has expounded the pancastikayas. These were known to, and collectively mentioned by Jina Parsva in the Rsibhasitani and possibly the detailed nature of the astikayas was first defined by the pontiffs of the sect of Parsva. The term does not figure in earlier texts. The Prasnavyakarana, a pretender agama of c. seventh century A.D., mentions natamuni; and Dhananjaya, the Digambara poet of the 7th-8th century A.D., includes Jnatnputra' in the list of the epithets of Mahavira. (I forego citing these later references, which in any case are secondary; for in the age of these later authors, the epithet Nataputta' for Mahavira was not in currency, and if at all appearing as rare instances, the usage derives from or harks back to the early agamic sources.) N. B. In the citations from the agamas the language has been restored to Ardhamagadhi by eliminating the Maharastri Praksta affectations. Page #450 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ THE CONCEPT OF MIND IN JAINISM T. G. Kalghatgi The problem of the nature and functions of mind has a significant place in philosophy as well as psychology. It has eluded the grasp of the philosophers and psychologists from the early past to the present day. Metaphysically, the mind was considered by some as the principle of the Universe existing in relation to the phenomenal world. Mind, in point of fact, was given primary emphasis as a cosmic principle by the idealists. Psychologically, what concerns is the individual mind,individual's sphere of psychic states. It is not easy to define mind; for its difinition has to be in terms of psychic processes and states. Wundt says that mind is the pre-scientific concept. It covers the whole field of internal experiences. McDougall defines mind as an organised system of mental and purposive forces. The philosophical study of mind shows that the ancient Indian thinkers possibly were aware that they were groping at grasping the intangible, ineffable and immaterial : But they could not free themselves from the material. In the preUpanisadic thought, the principle of Rta became the Principle of the Order of the Universe. Similarly, the term kratu is shown to be the antecedent of the term manas or prajna. In the Upanisads the importance of mind and its functions was gradually realised. An expression such as "I was elsewhere in mind, I could not see, I could not hear" is met with in the Brhadaranyaka Upanisad. 3 The old metaphysical problem of the relation of mind and soul continued to disturb the philosophers of the ancient world. Aristotle, for example, in his De Anima said that Democritus regarded mind as identical with the soul for the fineness of its particles. Titus Lucretius Carus avered that mind and soul are kept together in close union and make up a single nature. The Jaina thinkers, on their part, asserted the distinction between soul and mind. Jina Vardhamana Mahavira was asked by Gautama whether mind was different from the soul. "Oh, Gautama," said, Mahavira, "mind is not the soul, as speech, like mind, is different from the soul. Non-living substances have no mind". Mind was postulated, and the postulation was based on the evidence of experience. The contact of the sense organ with the soul alone does not give rise to experiences, because there the mind is absent. Again mind has the functional connotation which speaks for its nature, just as speech signifies the function of speaking, fire expresses the function of burning and the light shows the light."6 (Miss) Washburn says that there is no objective proof for the existence of mind." We have to posit the existence of mind on the basis of behaviour and experience. Page #451 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ T. G. Kalghatgi I intend, for this article, restrict study to the psychological aspect of the nature and functions of mind. 126 The Jaina approach towards the study of mind has been realistic. The mind and its states are analysed on the empirical level: Still the Jaina ideal is moksa, freeing of the soul from the impurities of karma. The purity as well as the divinity of the soul are the foundational principles of Jaina philosophy. The Jaina theory of mind postulates mind and nature as different in kind and as sharply separated and opposed. Traces of the primitive conception of the mind are still to be found in this theory. Yet, it tried to overcome the conflict between mind and nature and establish intimate relation between them. The function of the mind is knowing and thinking. The Sthananga describes it as "Samkalpa vyaparacati". The Visesavasyaka-bhasya of Jinabhadra gani (c. A. D. 585) defines mind in terms of mental processes-"mananam va manaye va anena mano" It is taken in the substantive sense. The contact of the sense organs with the soul alone does not give rise to cognition in the relevant experiences, because of the absence of mind. Again, the mind has the functional connotation which speaks for its nature. For instance, a man may not hear a sound or see an object when the mind is preoccupied; when the mind is elsewhere we cannot perceive, as we already find mentioned in the Brhadaranyaka Upanisad. Mind, in the popular sense, is not simply a 'subject' in the logical sense, but is also a 'substance' in real being, and the various activities of mind are expressions or notions. Manas has functional significance because it describes the functions of the mind like thinking, imagining, and expecting." From the functional significance of the mind, its structure is inferred. The Jaina thinkers have made a distinction between the two phases of the minddravya-manas (structural phase) and bhava-manas (the functional phase). The first refers to the material or the physical basis and the second to the psychic functions. of the mind. The first, we may refer as analogous (though not perhaps the same). to the brain and the second to the psychic states and functions, like thinking, imagining, dreaming, willing etc. The cognitive, affective, and the conative functions of mind refer to the psychic aspect, the bhava-manas. The material, as we described above, is composed of the infinite, very fine and coherent particles of atoms, meant for the formation of mind. They are the manovarganas. They are meant for the functions of mind: Dravyatah dravya manah. It has been further described as a collection of fine particles which are meant for exciting thought processes due to yoga arising out of the contact of the soul with the body.10 In the Gommatasara (jivakanda) (c. late 10th cent. A. D.), there is a description of the structural mind as produced in the heart from the coming together of mind molecules like a full-blown lotus with eight petals. 11 Page #452 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Concept of Mind in Jainism 127 The structural phase of the mind was recognised by the philosophers of India and the West as well. The Upanisadic philosophers supposed that mind for its formation depends on 'alimentation'.1: Mind was supposed to have been formed out of the food that we take--"annamayam manah." Food takes three different forms--the subtlest part becoming mind. According the Samkhya-yoga, buddhi, ahankara and manas are products of praksti.18 Hiriyanna says that, according to this view, the functions that we describe mental are really mechanical processes of the physical organism, which assume a psychical character only when illuminated by the spirit. 14 In the Vedanta darsana, antahkarana is looked upon as bhautika. In Western thought also, there were philosophers who conceived of mind as material. Mind is formed of fine and exceedingly minute bodies. 16 The Jaina distinction between the dravya-manas and bhava-manas can be compared to the description of mind given by C. D. Broad in his Mind and its Place in Nature. 16 According to him, mind has two factors --the bodily and the psychic. The bodily factor is described as the living brain and the nervous system; about the psychic factor, says Broad; it is sentience alone. Neither mental characteristics nor mental events seem to belong to it. Broad, however, seems to be vague regarding the psychic factor. Regarding the dravya-manas, we may refer to the view of McDougall who has likened it to the mental structure, though he was careful to suggest that the structure of the mind is a conceptual system.17 The problem of the instrumentality of mind for experience may next be considered. It was generally believed that mind is a sense-organ (indriya) like other sense-organs. In the Upanisads we find references to the mind as indriya. The Prasna-Upanisad mentions mind as the central sense organ. There were some philosophers who believed that manas, buddhi and ahamkara together constitute the internal organ (antahkarana). The Nyaya-Vaisesika systems regarded mind as an internal organ. Gautama did not include it in the list of sense-organs. Kanada is silent on this issue. Vatsyayana, on his part, included manas under the senses. The Jainas believed that mind is a "no-indriya" in the sense that it is different from the 5 sense-organs. Its sense contents and functions are not entirely identical with those of indriyas. The prefix 'no' does not mean the absence in the negative sense: It is at times rendered as isad. It is quasi-sense organ. They still accept the instrumental function of the mind. In the Gommatasara (Jivakanda), there is a brief description of the mind as no-indriya mental states, and events are possible through mind. But there is no external manifestation as in the case of other sense-organs. The function of mind is assimilative. 18 The Pramanamimamsa describes mind as the thing which grasps everything. In the vstti of the same it is said, "Manomindriyamiti no indriyamiti ca ucyate". 19 The Tattvarthasutra describes this function as sruti-cognition. The function is also the mati-cognitions and its modes.20 The Jainas have accepted the instrumental nature of mind Page #453 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 128 T. G. Kalghatgi (karanatva), having two spheres of function :- i) bahya karanarva (external function) and ii) antahkaranatva (internal function). Even the dravyamanas has been described as antahkarana. Being the internal organ, it is different from the sense-organs. 2) However, such a description of mind need not be interpreted in the sense that, according to the Jaina view, mind is not a sense organ; in fact it is more than a sense organ. The function is not specific like that of other sense organs: It is sarvarthagrahanam. The relation between body and mind has been a perennial problem for philosophers and psychologists as well. Attempts have been made to solve it by presenting various theories based upon the fundamental philosophical standpoints of the philosophers. The problem has two sides- i) philosophical and the ii) psychological approach to the problem. Philosophically, there are the materialists who have given exclusive emphasis on matter, the mind, for them, being either a product of matter or a non-entity. The idealists lay emphasis on the primacy of mind. The realists emphasise the reality of both matter and mind. The relation between finite mind and finite body may be : 1) a complete dependence, as when mind is considered to be the secretion of the brain; 2) that of parallelism where the two series, the physical and the mental run parallel to each other and 3) the relation of interaction between the physical and the mental. The Jaina philosophers discussed the metaphysical aspect of the problem and they also brought out the psychological implications of the problem. This is very much evident in the exposition of the mechanism of the bondage of the soul, the psyche by the flow and accumulation of the karma-varganas. Jina Mahavira had pointed out to Ganadhara Vayubhuti that it is not correct to maintain that consciousness is a product of the collection of bhutas, material elements, like earth and water, or just as intoxication is produced by the combination of ghataki flowers and jaggery, though not found in the elements separately. The cetana in point of fact is the quality or property of the soul. In this we find the refutation of the Lokayata or Materialist view. 22 Similar arguments were put forth in the Sutrakrtanga.23 On account of the rise (udaya), annihilation (ksaya), and suppression (upasama) of karmic particles, jiva has 5 bhavas.24 Being affected by the changes in the karmic material, jiva experiences certain emotional states. But whatever emotional states appear in the consciousness are due to causal agency of jiva. The extrinsic cause is the physical matter and the proximate cause is the jiva. It is thus parallelistic. Two distinct causal agencies have been discerned : nimitta karta or efficient cause, and upadana karta or substantial cause of the psychic changes. The two series, the karmic and the psychic correspond to each other. Karmic matter brings about its own changes. Jiva, through its impure ways of thought that are conditioned by karmic matter, brings about its own psychic changes. But the Jaina parallelism is not merely the temporal correspondence of the two series, point by point : It is transcended by the doctrine of nimitta karta. As in the Cartesian view, their thinking and unthinking are distinct, yet the two are related by the peculiar Page #454 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Concept of Mind in Jainism 129 concept of causal relation. The unthinking may be the nimitta karta of the other and the converse may be also true. But the two causal relationships are independent. Kundakundacarya gives a graphic description of the process of the formation of the physical and the mental states and also their interaction. The world space is filled with material bodies, some perceptible, others imperceptible. These constitute the karma. These are the karma-varganas. They are the physical molecules of a particular constitution which give them the tendency to be attracted by the jiva. 26 This is also known as the karma-prayoga-pudgala. Jiva and karmavarganas coexist, but by the mere fact of contiguity, Jiva and karmic matter are brought together, as the casket filled with black collyrium power becomes black by mere contact.26 The relation of the bhava-mana-rupa has been described on the analogy of the mixture of milk and water ksiraniravat.27 Just as the lotus-hued ruby placed in a cup of milk imparts its lustre to the milk, so does the jiva residing in the body impart its lustre or intelligence to the body. Radhakrishnan has pointed out that the Jainas have accepted the dualism of body and mind and the parallelism, with all its limitations. The Jainas have advocated a sort of pre-established harmony to explain the reasons for the soul to experience the fruits of karma.28 But the Jainas do not merely speak the language of the pre-established harmony. That would be a mere mechanistic explanation. Metaphysically, they recognised the dichotomy of body and mind. Yet, the empirical approach showed them that there is an interaction and mutual influence. Their approaches to the problems were from two different planes--the noumenal (niscaya-naya) and the phenomenal points of view (vyavahara-naya). A clear and a consistent formulation from the vyavahara-naya would have been possible if the metaphysical and the psychological analyses were clearly distinguished. "The Jaina theory was an attempt at the integration of the metaphysical dichotomy of jiva and ajiva and the establishment of the individual mind and body" 29 Notes and References 1.

Page #456 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ A PROPOS OF THE BOTIKA SECT M. A. Dhaky Sagarmal Jain Up to the period of the niryuktis (c. A. D. 5251), the Svetambara Jaina canon noticed only seven nihnavas (heretices), each of whom had differed on one singular point from, or one aspect or interpretation of, one or the other early doctrine of the Nirgrantha religion. Partly basing his exposition on the immediately preceding, rather succinct, exegetical notices and partly on the then current elucidatory traditions on such and similar old records, Jinabhadra gani ksamaaramana in the Viss Avasyaka-bhasya (c. A. D. 5853), presents an historical as well as quasi-historical account of these traditional seven, plus an additional or the eighth. heretic, Sivabhuti. While the preceding more ancient seven nihnavas ultimately had been proven inconsequential, the eighth one, the heresiarch Sivabhuti,-by his separation from the main ecclesiastical stream, brought about a major schism which eventually grew into a definite, viable, and an important sect with a school of thinking and practice that was branded "Botika drsti (Bodia ditthi)" by the post-agamic Svetambara commentators. 4 The term "Botika" ("Bodiya" or "Bodiyana" in Jaina Maharastri and "Bodiga" or "Bodia" in late Ardha-Magadhi) has been taken to mean "Digambara" by current Svetambara writers, a misinterpretation that has been perpetrated presumably from the time of the late medieval Svetambara writings onward, and had of late attracted unwarranted attacks on Jinabhadra gani ksamaaramana by some pundits of the Digambara sect who did not suspect that the interpretation of the term and hence the ascription of the sect was wrong. Indeed," Walther Schubring was aware that the term did not originally imply the way it was later thought to be. Schubring, however, suggested no alternative interpretation. It was Muni Jambuvijaya who made a right guess that the appelation "Botika" had meant Yapaniya"". Let it at the outset be clarified that, before Jinabhadra gani, the term. "Bodiya" is mentioned in the Bhasya (c. A. D. 550-575) on the Avasyaka-sutra; the bhasya-gatha, moreover, reports the date of the origination of "Bodiya ditthi" to be V. N. S. 609/A.D. 132. The still earlier Mula-bhasya (e. A. D. 550) briefly alludes to a question asked by Sivabhuti to Arya Krsna at Rathavirapura (the place of schism, unidentified, perhaps somewhere in M. P. or U. P., 10) which Page #457 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 132 M. A. Dhaky & Sagarmal Jain apparently was a prelude to the discussion between the two pontiffs which ultimately led to the schisms (as the commentators including Jinabhadra gani report). The latter gatha also figures in the Uttaradhyayana-niryukti (c. A. D. 525) 11. The gatha, as found in the mulabhasya of the Avasyaka-sutra, may have been taken from the Uttaradhyayana-nir yukti or, equally, it may have drifted to the selfsame niryukti from the mulabhasya. At any rate the gatha in question is not posterior to c. A. D. 550. The Niryuktis do sometimes briefly allude occasionally with one word or a few catch words, to the anecdotes pur porting to some historical events or happenings besides legends, parables, etc., which are not long afterwards commented upon by the Praksta bhasyas and the curnis and next by the Samsksta vsttis in fuller perspective. At the same time, there are instances where the Nir yuktigathas are partly (or wholly and sometimes inextricably) mixed up with those of bhasyas12. At any rate, the mula-bhasya on the Avasyaka which alludes to Sivabhuti, is definitely anterior to the Vises= Avasyaka-bhasya. (This exonerates Jinabhadra gani !) Posterior to the Vises= Avasyaka-bhasya, the Avasyaka-curni (c. A. D. 600650), while explaining the relevant older bhasya-gathas, narrates the Sivabhuti episode at some length, and, at one other place, classes the monks of the five sects, -the Ajivaka, Tapasa, Parivrajaka, Tatksanika (Buddhist), and 'Botiya'-as avandya, unworthy of paying obeisance. 13 A verse, plausibly an interpolation, in the Ogha-niryukti (main text c. early 6th cent. A. D.) interprets a visual encounter on one's way with a Cakracara 14, Panduranga (Sivaite monk) and Botika as augering uppropitious, the worst of them all being Botika, meeting whom would consequence in death 15 ! This interpolation, however, could be of a date as early as the seventh or the eighth century; for contempt toward the Botika is also noticeable in the Sutra-krtanga-curni (c. last quarter of the 7th cent. A. D.)18, and what is more, still earlier in the curni by Agastyasimha on the Dasavaikalika-sutra (c. A.D. 650)17. Incidentally, Bana-bhatta, in the Harsa-carita (c. early 7th cent, A. D.), explicitly refers to an episode of visual encounter of a nagnataka to prince Harsavardhana at one place and prince's looked upon as inauspicious, even prognosticative of death18 ! It is then clear that, aside from the Svetambaras, the brahmanists of the period also believed that the visual confrontation with a nude Jaina monk (ksapana) is unpropitious. Among the early literary notices on Botika, the last is perhaps by Haribhadra suri. In his Botika-pratisedhal' which may perhaps be the same as his Botikanirasa 20 also gives the characteristics of Botika21 not applicable to the Digambara but to the Yapaniya sect. 32 None of these sources, however, define or explain what 'Botika' means. The term may mean "polluted" or "corrupt". The verb 'botavun' in the current Page #458 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ A Propos of the Botika Sect 133 Gujarati means 'to pollute'. The Sartha Gujarati Jodonikosa28 derives the word from the desya 'bota 24 whereas the Praksta is "Bodia" and not "Boytia". So Professor Harivallabh Bhayani suggested another current Gujarati word "bolavun" to shave as a source-word and "Bodia" and its Sanskritized form "Botika" simply meaning "shaven" or by extension, nude. 26 But the meaning of the term glossed above does not go far in explaining the characteristic features and doctrinal positions of the Botika sect. A statement in the Acaranga-curni (c. late 3rd quarter of the 7th cent. A. D.), cited by Muni Jambuvijaya, somewhat illumines the problem. 26 According to this commentary, the Bodiyas are those whose only possession is their body (sarira-parigrahi)27 meaning thereby that the Botika monks practicised nudity, and they received in and ate food from their folded palms (pani-puta-bhoji), which, by implication, meant the rejection of begging bowl, the use of which the monastic practice of the protoSvetambara friars allowed. However, the definition of the term Botika, if this feature alone is considered, can equally apply to the Digambara monks. That the Curni's succinct but pointed description applies to the friars of the Yapaniya order is clear from the Yapaniya work Aradhana of Sivarya (c. 6th cent. A. D.), the author specifically declaring himself to be 'pani-tala-bhoji'.28 The early Yapaniyas, it seems, were particular in stressing this specific feature of their practice since the Northern Yapaniya monks, unlike their Digambara counterpart, often bore the epithet 'arya' (as in Sivarya's lineage) or vacaka, ksamasramana, etc. as their early Gupta inscriptions (c. A. D. 370) from Vidisa would tend to suggest. 29 There the friar concerned is expressly called "pani-patrika", the one who uses palms as bowl. The Yapaniyas and the Digambaras shared two monastic features in common; strict nudity, and almost absolute non-possession for friars. But the Yapaniyas recognized the same early agamas which are the part of the Svetambara canon; and hence there was no doctrinal difference between the Svetambaras and the Yapaniyas unlike Digambaras and these two sects. However, the secessionist Sivabhuti, the originator of the Yapaniya sect, was not Digambara but Svetambara. Svetambaras for long did not know about the existence of the Digambara sect and their different doctrinal views. Hence by the term Botika they could not have meant Digambara but Yapaniya. According to the earlier part of the Sthaviravali (hagiological list) of the Paryusana-kalpa, 30 he was the disciple of Arya Dhanagiri and grand disciple of Arya Phalgumitra in the line of the illustrious of Arya Vajra; and, according to the later additional part (c. A. D. 503/516)81 of the selfsame sthaviravali, Sivabhuti had a confrere Ajja Kanha, Arya Klsna.3% There is, however, no hint there about Sivabhuti's secession from the main stream. In point of fact, his disciple-Arya Sandila-onwards the line of pontiffs continues till it ends with Arya Sandila (or Skandila) who had presided over the Mathura Synod (c. A. D. 363) : Page #459 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 134 M. A. Dhaky & Sagarmal Jain Arya Vajra Arya Ratha Arya Pusyagiri Arya Phalgumitra Arya Dhanagiri Arya Sivabhuti Arya Krsna (ob. before K. E. 95) Arya Bhadra Arya Sandila (or Skandila) (c. A. D. 363) From the sthaviravali it is clear that Arya Sivabhuti was a senior confrere of Arya Krsna as against the impression carried in Jinabhadra gani's narration, which makes Arya Krsna "guru" and Sivabhuti "sisya", a mistake in fact had been made by the earlier bhasya. Significantly, while the svetambara commentators denigrate Sivabhuti, 'the Digambara Jaina work Bhavapahuda (Bhavaprabhsta, c. late 8th cent. A.D. or later), 33 ascribed to Kundakundacarya, extalls Sivabhuti for his bhavavisuddhi by tusa-bhasa. 84 Since no Digambara pontiff with the appelation of Sivabhuti is known, it is very likely that Bhavapahuda's Sivabh iti is probably identical with the separatist Sivabhuti of the Svetambara sources, who was most welcome to the Digambara sect since he had insisted on nudity and absolute nonpossession. As for the date of Arya Sivabhuti, since he is fisth after Aiya Vajra (c. 1st cent. A.D.) in the succession list, he may be ascribed to c. 2nd 3rd cent. A. D. The Mathura Silapatta (stone plaque) dated to the 95th year of the Kusana Era very reverentially depicts " Kanha samana (Krsna Sramana or Arya Krsna)". 85 The date of the silapatta in terms of Christian Era variously can be A.D. 200-205, or 223, or 238, depending on the year from which the Era of Kaniska is reckoned or Page #460 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ A Propos of the Botika Sect 135 computed.36 In any case, the traditional date of V.N.S. 609/A.D. 132 for the Botika schisni given by the bhasya and maintained by Jinabhadra gani does not seem accurate. 87 The Mathura silapatta of Arya Ktsna represents the guru-murti, and the presence inside the depiction of Nagaraja shows that some years had already elapsed after the demise of the pontiff Arya Krsna. Under the circumstances, the Sivabhuti schism ultimately may have taken place some time late in the last quarter of the second century A.D. at the latest. We may note, in passing, the date given by Devasena in his Darsanasara88 for the origination of the Yapaniya sect: According to which it was founded by Srikalasa, a Svetambara pontiff, in V.S. 675 (A.D. 619), or, as the alternate reading says, in V.S. 205/A.D. 159, at Kalyana.39 Kalyana was the capital of the Calukyas from the days of Ahavamalla Somesvara I who was enthroned in A.D. 1044. Nothing, however, is known from the historical records about that town before the days of the Calukyas. And the date, at least A.D. 619 is much farther afield from the truth. Devasena for certain was in darkness about the origin of the Yapaniya sect. For all sects (excepting for his own), he not only conjures up an historical wrong perspective but, the worst of all, a highly sectarian and venomous standpoint also of which Srutasagara (15th cent. A.D.) and Ratnanandi (16th-17th cent. A.D.) were heirs. 40 There are no parallels in pre-medieval Svetambara literature to the writings of the last two authors. 41 Notes and References 1. The available niryuktis have been ascribed by late Muni Punyavijaya to (the so-called) Bhadrabahu II, brother of the astronomer Varahmihira (c. early 6th cent. A.D.), according to the Jaina writers of the Solanki period. While the existence of Bhadrabahu II cannot be proven, nor is there any real ground to so suppose, the niryuktis can of course be ascribed to c. A.D. 525, or inside years not long after the Valabhi Synod II (c. A.D. 503/516), with the qualification that they partly draw on the one hand from the floating samgrahanis compiled between the third and the fifth century A.D., and on the other hand also contain verses which may have been interpolated between the sixth and the eighth century A.D. The Sthananga-sutra (c. 3rd quarter of the 4th cent. A.D.), the Aupapatika-sutra (c. 3rd cent. A.D.), and the Avasyaka-nir yukti (c. A.D. 525) in particular take notice of the seven nihnavas. The subsequent exegesis elaborate upon the original succinctly stated information in the aforenoted works. Page #461 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 136 M. A. Dhaky & Sagarmal Jain 3. Jinabhadra gani ksamasramana apparently had passed away in c. A.D. 594. He had written the commentary in Sanskrit on his Vises- Avasyaka. bhasya which he had left unfinished before death. Also the Visesanavati and the Jitakalpabhasya were compiled before the Vises - Avasyakabhasya. So the plausible date of composition of the Vises=Avasyakabhasya could be c. A.D. 585 or at most a few years later on average computation. This is the stock view reflected in most of the current Svetambara Jaina writings. The writers were under double delusion in that they mistook the Yapaniya like the Aradhana of Sivarya (c. 5th-6th cent. A.D,) and the Mulacara of Vattakare (c. 6th-7th cent. A.D.) as of Digambara affiliation (as did most, and still do many, Digambara writers themselves despite late A.N. Upadhye as well as late Pt. Nathuram Premi's investigations). The current historical investigations on the major early schisms in the Nirgrantha Church had, therefore, gone completely astray, the conclusions reached were absolutely erroneous, and all these writings have only served to mislead both old and new generations of scholars including Western and the Japanese. For the latest, among those who took "Botika" as "Digambara", cf. Jagadish Chandra Jain and Mohanlal Mehta, Jaina Sahitya ka Brhad Itihasa (Hindi), Pt. 2, Varanasi 1966, p. 205. One other factor that arose their anger was Jinabhadra's defence on the agamic position of the sequential occurrence of perception and cognition for an omniscient. The Doctrines of the Jainas, first edition, reprint, Delhi 1978, p. 50: "The Svetambara report (Av. nijj 418 a) on the heresy committed by Bodiya Sivabhuti in the year 609 after MV, who wanted the Jina-kappa (Jina-kalpa) to be made generally acknowledged and who himself accepted it notwithstanding the warnings of his guru. Originally, however, this was nothing to do with the Digambaras and was related to them only later". Cf. "Prastavana" (Gujarati) Ayaranga-suttam (Pt. 1), Jaina-AgamaSeries Vol. 2, Sri Mahavira Jaina Vidyalaya, Bombay 1977, p. 49. The first of these verses gives the date of the Botika schism at Rathavirapura and the next verse ascribes it to Botika Sivabhuti the Heretic, and reports that this heresy came into being at Rathavirapura. In the next verses figure a hint as to a dialogue between Sivabhuti and Arya Krsna at Rathavirapura and to Kaundinya and Kotivira, two supporters and disciples of Sivaonati. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Page #465 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ RECONCILIATION OF BUDDHIST AND VEDANTIC NOTION OF SELF Y. S. Shastri There is a general impression that Buddhism is opposed to the existence of Self or Atman... Indeed many scholars of distinction maintained that this non-soul theory demarcates Buddhism from Vedantic philosophy. The Hinayanists, the Mahayanists, namely Sunyavadins and Vijnanavadins explicity denied the existence of soul. In other words, this non-soul theory embraces entire Buddhist philosophical literature. Granted, all schools of Buddhism criticise the existence of Atman; however, it is equally important to comprehend the notion of 'self' as they understood. For this purpose, we must look through the arguments set forth by Buddhism against the existence of Atman, from the days of Buddha to the Mahayanist thinkers. It seems that the word Atman for Buddha is nothing but 'ego' i.e. notion of l' and 'mine'. The notion of 'self' is here regarded as the cause of misery and bondage. The Buddhists call it 'sat-kaya drsti'. When we take anything as a 'self! we get attached to it and dislike other things that are opposed to it. The notion of self is considered as ignorance (Avidya) and from it proceed all passions. This notion of self is, for the Buddhists, the root cause of all kinds of attachment, and hence of misery and pain. This notion of self which is, the fountainhead of all misdeeds led Buddhists to deny the existence of Atman. Following this limited concept of Atman as an individual ego', Buddhism in all subsequent phases of its development criticises the existence of Atman as a false notion of the Vedantins. Says Buddha : Anatta (Anatman) means 'non-ego, not-self' i. e. the fact that neither within these bodily and mental phenomena of existence nor outside them can be found anything that in the ultimate sense can be called as self-reliant real ego-entity or personality. "All are impermanent, body, sensation, perception, they are not self". It is mentioned in the Samyukta-nikaya8 that self is nothing else but an aggregate of five skandhas, namely aggregate of body (rupa) and four mental processes --feeling (vedana), perception (samjna), disposition (samskara) and selfconsciousness (vijnana). The five states of the five senses and the mind, the feeling that is related to mind, all these are void of self. There is no self or person or life principle which is permanent. No consciousness of any such permanent changeless entity or eternal principle obtains in man. In the Maijhima-nikaya, Buddha condemned the notion of self as an unreal thing imagined only by dull people.4 Early Buddhist literature reveals that Buddha admitted the states of consciousness but Page #466 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reconciliation of Buddhist and Vedantic Notion of Self 141 not the soul. According to him the union of mental and material qualities makes the 'individual'. The 'self' is nothing but an empirical aggregate. In the Alagaddupan a-sutta, it is said that there is no self or anything having the nature of self. Vidhusekhara Bhattacharya, quoting various references in support of the Buddhist denial of self, writes : "The existence of personal self or Atman as accepted in other systems was utterly denied by the Buddha, thereby pulling down the very foundation of desire where it can rest." The same notion of 'self (non-ego)' is accepted by the later Buddhists and further elaboration of existence of non-soul theory is solely responsible for the misconception that Buddhism is diametrically opposed to Vedantic thought. In denying this notion of the self all the schools of Buddhism are unanimous. T. R. V. Murti rightly pointed out that "there is no Buddhist school of thought which did not deny the Atman". 6 Immediately after Buddha, negative approach towards the existence of the soul reached its climax; especially, in Nagasena, we notice this negative attitude. Nagasena, like Hume, maintained that the so-called 'self' is nothing but a stream of ideas. It is psychologically impossible to believe in the existence of 'self'. He observes that when we analyse the idea of soul, we wrongly imagine a soul underlying mental states. It is nothing else but a collection of certain qualities which exist together. The soul is a name for the sum total of the states which constitutes our mental existence. The soul or personality is like a stream of river; there is continuity, even though one movement is not the same as another. It is the view of all the Hinayanist schools. For the Madhyamikas, 'self' is an unreal entity. Nagarjuna (c. 2nd cent. A.D.) declares that it is neither identical with, nor different from the five skandhas.? When "l' and 'mine' cease, the cycle of birth and death comes to a standstill.8 If the 'self' by the same as the skandhas, then it too, like them, will be subject to birth and death and it cannot be known. Nagarjuna's followers like Aryadeva and Candrakirti also treated soul as unreal entity. According to Candrakirti, Atman is the root cause of all sufferings and demerits and he says that wise men (yogi) should deny its ultimate reality. Santideva also states similarly wtrert he says that when we analyse the existence of 'self', nothing should be found ultimately. "Just as when one goes on taking off the layers of a plantain trunk or an onion nothing (ultimately] will remain, similarly, if one goes on analysing the so-called existence of self, ultimately it will be found to be nothing."10 In criticising the existence of 'self', the Vijnanavadins are not far behind the earlier Buddhists. They all took the notion of Atman as ego-entity and criticise it as a non-existent entity. Let us see how Asanga, the great Vijnanavadin criticises the notion of self as mere illusion in his major work, the Mahayanasutralankara. He says that the concept of Atman is simply a 'pre-conception' or an "illusory concept', 11 Page #467 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 142 Y. S. Shastri Like Nagarjuna, he too asserts that it is neither a spiritual entity nor an aggregate of skandhas. Attacking the Vedantins indirectly, he says that the Vedantic comprehension of Atman is not by itself characterised by the correct notion of Atman. It is also mere misformation, identifying it with the aggregate of skandhas (duhsamsthitata) which is originated from impurities and instability (klesa-daurbalya-prabhavitatvat). In other words, it is neither real nor unreal, but merely an: illusion. Therefore, Atman does not exist.1: Thus, the liberation is also nothing else but destruction of this illusion or pre-conception. 1 3 He strongly criticises the belief in the existence of the so called Atman and argues as to how is it that the world believing in the conception of 'self' which is simply an illusion, does not see the nature of pain which is constantly attached with the samskaras. In other words, the world, falsely believing in the existence of 'self' which is a non-existent entity, does not see the root cause of pain produced by samskaras (which are an operating factor). 14 How deep rooted is this ignorance or darkness which causes the world to misinterpret the play of existence and to perceive the 'self' which is not? In fact it is possible that obscurity prevents us from seeing what is, but does not make us see what is not. He expresses surprise as to what sort of ignorance is this which obscures the truth and makes the world to perceive what is not.16 He calls the notion of 'self' as baneful.16 He declared that all dharmas are without self, or are sans substance.17 All sorts of pain and sufferings are due to this imaginary notion of 'self'. The 'self', by its very nature, is characterised by pain. It is the root cause of all miseries and sufferings.18 Really speaking Atman, which (as a notion) is merely imaginary, does not exist. 19 If Atman really existed, then there would be either liberation without effort or no liberation at all. Therefore, the imaginary soul does not exist.20 Asanga denies the material existence of 'self?. 21 If it materially exists, then it must be seen like other material things."2 If it is material then it must be subject to destruction like other material things; in that case, it cannot be a permanent entity. If pudgala or Atman exists, then there would be either liberation of all without any effort or no liberation at all.29 There will be liberation of all without any effort because on seeing the material Atman, everyone will be liberated. Such, however, is not the case. By perceiving the Atman nobody becomes liberated. Even those who have realised the highest truth do not accept the existence of Atman.24. In that case, they may not be able to attain liberation. By merely perceiving the material Atman nobody is liberated. Thus, there will be no liberation at all. Again, belief in the existence of atman is the root cause of miseries and 'l' and 'mine' considerations spring from it.25 This belief becomes the root cause of bondage rather than liberation. The Atman or pudgala does not exist in reality. When the pudgala or 'self' does not really exist, how can it be taken as seer or a knower or liberator or doer or an enjoyer. 26 The notion of self is thus Page #468 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reconciliation of Buddhist and Vedantic Notion of Self 143 purely imaginary and does not exist.27 It may be argued that, in some places Buddha himself has preached the pudgala or 'self'. But it must be kept in mind that Buddha had preached the existence of self' only to attract the simple minded and to encourage them to perform good, and to refrain from evil, deeds; without teaching pudgala, it is not possible to preach its consequences and pudgala-nairatmya. Excepting this, it has no other significance.28 For Vasubandhu, the follower of Asanga, too, the notion of 'self' is the root cause of suffering and it is an unreal entity. He avers that the individual self' depends on the alaya and is accompanied by four kinds of suffering : self-notion, self-delusion, self-pride, and self-love.29 It ceases to function when the false notion of the self is destroyed and when the categories of intellect are transcended. Consciousness transcends the duality of the subject (pudgala-nairatmya) and the object (dharma-nairatmya) both of which ultimately are unreal. 30 Even for later vijnanavadins like Dharmakirti (active c. A. D. 620-550) and santaraksita (c. A. D. 705-762), the notion of Atman is the root cause of misery and attachment. As long as one is attached to the Atman so long will one revolve in the cycle of birth and death. Santaraksita clearly maintained that Atman is nothing but consciousness associated with ego; ultimately it denotes nothing. 31 Thus, it is clear that the Buddhists, right from the Buddha to santaraksita, severely criticise the notion of 'self' and it is generally understood in the sense of an individual ego, root cause of passion, misery and attachment and its ultimate existence is denied on that ground. It is variously called, Atman, Pudgala and Satkayadssti. Let us, then, examine how far this non-soul theory is justifiable and how far Buddha and the Mahayanists had understood the notion of Atman of the Vedantins. The Hinayanists taking literal meaning of the word 'non-ego' or 'not-self' took a sort of materialist approach reducing Atman to mere mind and body complex or component of certain elements. It logically derives that the destruction of misery follows the destruction of self or certain component parts. Now this is nothing but sheer materialism. The Mahayanists adopting idealistic view criticise the existence of self saying that it is an unreal entity or merely an illusory idea. They misunderstood or only partially understood the notion of Atman of the Upanisads and based their criticism on that limited understanding. It is already mentioned in the previous pages that, for the Hinayanists, 'self' is a mere aggregate of five skandhas. There is no permanent self which is the perceiver. Sankara rightly pointed out that without a permanent soul acts of perception and memory become impossible. If self is a mere aggregate of five skandhas (collection of bodily and mental processes),--these being unconscious, -how can they combine Page #469 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 144 Y. S. Shastri themselves with one another ?82 If there is no intelligent principle as a guide, how can the non-intelligent skandhas aggregate in a systematic way? Without permanent entity or soul, there will not be any aggregate and in their absence, there cannot exist the stream of mundane existence. 33 If avidya and other members of the twelve-fold chain of causation can account for the formation of aggregate and mundane life, the insoluble problem is, how the avidya and the like became the cause of aggregates which themselves come into existence subsisting in the aggregates or depend upon aggregates ?34 If mind is only successive percep tions, there is nothing that perceives. Without perceiver there can consciousness of perception. Radhakrishnan rightly pointed out that the aggreate or bundle of impression could hold no beliefs, make no judgements, commit no errors, entertain no deceptive illusions. If there is no perceiver, memory will become impossible. These Buddhists wrongly compare the self with the stream of a river. They forgot that the stream of a river is always flowing and never comes back. If the analogy is correct, we cannot remember past experiences. In fact, past experiences are retained in memory and we can recall them. Sankara pointed out correctly that if the past is recognised in the present, the permanence of the percipient is necessary. Otherwise, it will become difficult to recognise the same man whom we saw yesterday.38 The Hinayanists accepted the difference between thoughts and objects (nama and rupa) but they failed to understand that thoughts can never be thinkers. The 'self' is the knower or subject (jnata) and cannot be identified with 'Me' the mental contents of which are known (neya). Consciousness itself indicates existence of an agent which is conscious. The existence of 'self' cannot be brushed aside or dismissed merely by saying that there is a continuity or similarity of consciousness. The main question, then, is what is "my" abiding identical 'entity' or 'self' ? The notion of thinking and activity implies that there is an agent whose activity unifies the multiplicity of data or differences into a single whole. This is an order which gives the whole its distinctive and unitary character. This order or agent would have to be the same throughout otherwise it ceases to function as a unifying factor. This unifying permanent principle or agent is called 'self' by the Vedantins. Without accepting the existence of this permanent principle or 'self', the problem of identity cannot be solved. There is no proper answer for all these objections in the Hinayanists' texts. Even when accepting the absolutistic or an idealistic standpoint like Mahayanists, it is not possible to deny the existence of 'self' at an empirical level. Every worldly knowledge is possible only when there is the subject or the knower and the object or the known. Ultimately, there is no subject-object duality but at the empirical level it must be accepted. Really speaking these Mahayanists did not deny the existence of reality or the true self of the Vedantins. Their understanding of the concept of Atman of the Vedantins is partial. This misunderstanding of Page #470 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reconciliation of Buddhist and Vedantic Notion of Self - 145 the word Atman of the Vedantins led them to criticise the existence of Atman. Buddha himself is responsible for this misunderstanding. When Buddha says that the self is the root cause of all sorts of misery and attachment, it is clear that he misunderstood the notion of Atman of the Upanisads. But his criticism is not against the true notion of Atman described by the Upanisads which is the pure self, pure consciousness and which is the only reality. Buddha and the Mahayanists, in one sense or other, accepted Upanisadic reality. The Atman of the Upanisad is called not by the word Atman but by different terms. They used different terminologies instead of the word Atman. It is called Dharma, Bodhi, Prajna, Citta, Tathata, Tathagatagarbha, Dharmadhatu, etc. The Mahayanists like Asanga explicitly call Reality as Buddhatman, Paramatman. The Mahayanists understood the word Atman in the sense of individual ego or Jivatman which is the product of avidya and which is associated with the antahkarani or buddhi. santaraksita makes it clear when he says that citta or pure consciousness associated with ego or ahamkara is called Atman.87 Really speaking Buddha narrows down the meaning of Atman of the Upanisad taking it in the sense of ego which is the root cause of misery and attachment. In the Brhadaranyaka it is said that it is not for the sake of everything that everything is dear but for the sake of the 'self' that everything is dear! Seemingly, by taking such types of statements of the Upanisads, Buddha wrongly understood the Atman in the sense of l' and the 'mine' which is the cause of suffering and bondage. Before criticising Buddha's and the Mahayanists' view, it is very important to keep in mind the notion of Atman described by the Upanisads. In the Upanisads, Atman is identified with the Absolute Reality or Brahman in the ultimate sense. From the subjective point of view the same reality is called Atman and as Brahman from the objective point of view. In the Vedanta, the word Atman is used as a synonym of Brahman or Noumenal Reality. The Brhadaranyaka clearly states that 'The self is indeed Brahman'89. In other Upanisads also we find the same type of description. He is indeed just this Self, this Immortal, this Absolute, this All'40. "The self is indeed all this' l. 'It is existence, consciousness and bliss'ta. It is non-dual'48. It is absolute consciousness which is the parmanent background of all changing phenomena'!4. There is no difference between Atman and Brahman'. 'That thou art'45. All these passages clearly show that Atman is identified with Brahman. It is important here to note that 'Dharma' the Ultimate Reality called by the Buddha is nothing else but the same Atman described by the Upanisads. "Dharma' to him is Reality (satyam) itself in a dynamic form, regulating the course of nature like the Brahman or Atman of the Upanisads which is the basis of all. It is described by Buddha as an unborn, un-made, non-becoming and un-compounded 18. This is similar to the notion of Atman or Brahman described in the Kathopanisad. The self is never-born and never dies. It is unborn, eternal, everlastingt?. Like 19 Page #471 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 146 Y. S. Shastri the Upanisadic seer he calls Reality as immortal or ampta. After attainment of sambodhi or enlightenment, Buddha revealed his experience to his five desciples (Pancavargiya Bhiksu) as that of immortality declaring that thereby the gates of immortality are opened for all48. The idea is the same as that of the Upanisads. In the Upanisad, Reality is called Atman, Immortal, and Brahman;49 and in the Kenopanisad it is also mentioned that, when it is known through every conscious state, it is rightly known and one attains eternal life or immortality. Through his own knowledge he gains immortality 10 This immortality can be attained through effort. Buddha himself declared that : "even so, brethren, have I seen an ancient path, an ancient track traversed by the perfectly enlightened ones of former times".61 His criticism is against the permanence of the empirical ego or Jiva which is separate from Atman in the Vedanta. The Upanisadic notion of Atman is misunderstood and misrepresented by Buddha and his followers. But in the ultimate sense he accepted the Atman or the Absolute Reality. Instead of calling his conception of reality as Atman, he calls it 'Dharma' or 'Bodhi' or 'Amsta', which in the ultimate analysis only represents a different jargon for the same entity. The Hinayanists taking the literal meaning of Buddha's statement about the self, embraced sheer materialism. In the Mahayanists works this misunderstanding of the notion of Atman of the Vedantins as individual ego, is explicitly noticeable. They accept the absolute Reality but criticise the existence of Atman as mere illusion or unreal. Consciousness associated with ego is called Atman by some of the later Vijnanavadins. Asvaghosa's Tathata (Suchness) or Bhuta-tathata is nothing but Atman of the Upanisads. He recognizes it as Absolute suchness, which, ultimately speaking, transcends everything. But tainted with ignorance it manifests itself as 'conditional suchness'. The subject-object duality is the result of this conditional suchness. When true knowledge dawns, we realise that we are no more finite things but absolute suchness. 53 This is the self-existent, Immortal Reality, calm and blissful, which must be realised.58 It is beyond the grasp of intellect. This 'thatness' or Tathata has no attribute and it can only somehow be pointed in speech as 'thatness'. It is neither existence nor non-existence nor both nor neither. It is neither unity nor plurality, nor both nor neither. It is neither affirmation nor negation nor both nor neither. Similar statements are found in the Upanisads. The BIhadaranyaka clearly states that Atman is ungraspable; it can be expressed as not this, not this. 5$ In the Mandukya, it is described as neither inwardly nor outwardly cognisant, nor on both sides together. It is unseen, ungraspable, indefinable, unthinkable, unpointable.56 Dasgupta rightly points out that Asvaghosa being a learned Brahmin in his early age, interpreted Buddhism in the light of the Upanisads. Page #472 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reconciliation of Buddhist and Vedantic Notion of Self 147 Nagarjuna, the great Madhyamika philosopher, also misunderstood the notion of Atman and criticises it as an unreal entity. But his conception of Absolute Reality or non-dual Tattva or Sunya is nothing else but Absolute consciousness or Atman of the Upanisads which is indescribable. He defined reality as transcendental or beyond the reach of thought as non-relative, non-determinate, quiescent, nondiscrusive, non-dual.56 Even his conception of Sunya is the indescribable Atman or Brahman of the Vedantins. "Absolute cannot be called void or non-void or both or neither, but, in order to indicate, it is called Sunya'.57 Here the reality is described in negative terms. Reality which is unconditioned, indeterminate, and incapable of verbal elaboration is not apprehended by thought. Like Upanisadic thinkers, for Nagarjuna language applies only to the finite or phenomenal world. The same negative description of Atman is given in the Upanisads. Nagarjuna's definition of reality is similar to the description of Atman given in the Mandukyaupanisad. It is said that Atman cannot be described, cannot be grasped, is beyond the reach of thought, cannot be designated.58 The Brhadaranyaka also describes Atman in negative terms saying that Atman is not this, not this. 59 It also describes Atman as the not gross and the not subtle, the not short and not long ... the speechless, the mindless".00 It is clear that Nagarjuna accepts the existence of pure self or Atman of the Upanisads but only describes it by the negative term "Sunya'. Nagarjuna's followers, Aryadeva and Candrakirti, accept the Absolute Reality. Aryadeva says that Reality is pure Citta or Consciousness. The Jewel of Self' is absolutely pure and self-luminous and appears to be impure only on account of ignorance, just as a white crystal appears coloured on account of coloured thing placed near it.61 Santideva's Bodhicitta or Pure Buddha is similar to the notion of Atman of the Upanisads. Pure Citta or Pure Consciousness is the Absolute Reality for Santideva. It is clear that Absolute or Sunya or non-dual Tattva (advayam tattvam) of Nagarjuna, Pure Citta of Aryadeva, and Pure Buddha of santideva are nothing else but self-luminous Atman of the Upanisads which is indescribable pure consciousness (cit-prajnanaghana). Let us examine the Vijnanavadins' view. Even though the Lankavatara-sutra teaches the two fold selflessness i.e. self-lessness of persons and the self-lessness of things, the reality defined by it is nothing but Vedantic Atman or Brahman. It identifies the reality with Tathagatagarbha or Alayavijnana. It says that Tathagatagarbha or Alaya is indescribable and transcends all categories of thought.62 It tries to distinguish Tathagatagarbha from Atman of the Vedantins on false ground. It says that it is not similar to the Atman because it transcends all categories of finite thought (nir vikalpa) because it is neither affirmation nor negation nor both nor neither, and because it is to be directly realised by spiritual experience while the Atman leads to eternalism Page #473 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 148 Y. S. Shastri because it clings to affirmation. Even at first sight, no student of Vedanta and Buddhism can fail to understand the superficial and fallacious distinction made by the Lankavatara-sutra between Tathagatagarbha and Atman of the Vedanta. The Atman of the Upanisads transcends all categories of thought. Atman cannot be reached by speech and mind.64 Atman is beyond the grasp of intellect and learning. It is ungraspable, indescribable, and indefinable. Atman does. not cling to the category of affirmation. In fact no category can adequately describe it. It is attributeless. That the Atman is pure existence (sat) does not mean clinging to affirmation. It means to indicate the self-luminous 'consciousness self' in limited terms. It is really beyond description of categories of thought. 'Neti, Neti', 'Not this, Not this' clearly indicates the indescribable nature of Atman or Absolute Consciousness. It cannot be described, but it can be only experienced. The Lankavatara-sutra, however, speaks of self-realization. Suzuki points out that the idea of self realization is a special feature of the Lankavatara. If there is no self, no reality, no truth, then self realization would not have been preached. It says that: "All things are in their self nature, un-born; mahamati, belongs to the realm of self-realization attained by noble wisdom and does not belong essentially to the realm of dualistic discrimination cherished by the ignorant and the simple-minded." It is also said that Reality is eternal. "The ancient road of Reality, on Mahamati, has been here all the time, like gold, silver or pearl, preserved in the mine. Mahamati, the Dharmadhatu, abides for ever, whether the Tathagata appears in the world or not, as the Tathagata eternally abides, so does the reason (Dharmata) of all things, reality for ever abides; Reality keeps it in order, like the roads in an ancient city." It may be noted here that even though Buddhists implicitly accepted the doctrine of Atman of the Upanisads, they hesitated to use the word Atman explicitly, simply because this terminology belonged to their opponents. Seemingly at the time of the composition of the Lankavatara-sutra, there was a trend to preach the Atman theory explicitly. For Asanga, Absolute is Pure Consciousness (Cittam). It is non-dual. It is beyond the purview of speech or expression and indeed, it is indescribable. It is neither existence nor non-existence, neither affirmation nor negation, neither production nor destruction, neither increasing nor diminishing, neither pure nor impure; it is a characteristic of Reality.71 These descriptions of Asanga do not differ from Vedantic description of Atman or Brahman which is beyond the grasp of intellect, speech and which is pure consciousness. Asanga goes a step further than earlier Buddhists and calls Absolute Reality as Pure Atman and even Paramatman. "Understanding the true meaning of the doctrine of Sunya and Nairatmya, the enlightened ones (Buddha) transcend the Page #474 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Reconciliation of Buddhist and Vedantic Notion of Self 149 individual existence and realises the Pure Soul (Suddhatman) and thus, become one with the Universal Soul. 2 "When one realises this world to be merely a compo. site of samskaras (forces) and also realising the baneful existence of Atman, he becomes one with Universal Soul.79 Here, when Asanga says that the notion of Atman is baneful, it applies only to individual ego because Reality, according to him, is pure consciousness and which by its very nature is self-luminous. All impurities are adventitious.?4 Reality is styled in different terms by Asanga, like Visuddha-tathata, Dharmadhatu, Suddha-citta and Anasrava-dhatu. He declares that Reality 'is Pure Existence (Anasrava-dhatu). It is pure Tathata (Visuddhatathata), Thatness which is Atman for Buddhists. It is the highest soul or Paramatman for the Buddhists.76 Like the Vedantins, he proclaims that different rivers merging in the ocean become one with it; similarly, the Buddhas or Bodhisattvas meriging in the Absoulte Reality (Buddhatva) became one with it.78 It is similar to the statement of the Chandog ya which clearly states that : "as rivers which flow into the sea disappear in the mighty water (ocean) and lose their name and form, so does the wise soul become absorbed in the Transcendent Person and loses its name and form. When the souls are merged in the Real they cannot discriminate from which bodies they came.?? Similar statement is found in the Pasnopanisad also.78 It is clear that by not mentioning the word Atman, Asanga indirectly accepted the Atman of the Vedantins which is pure consciousness and the only reality. He denied only individual ego and not pure consciousness, Atman. Vasubandhu, younger brother and follower of Asanga, also admitted Reality as Pure Consciousness which transcends subject object duality. Vijnapti-matrata is Reality for Vasubandhu. It is self-luminous non-dual Reality. Later Vijnanavadins, like Dharmakirti and Santaraksita (who are called Sautrantika-Vijnanavadins by some writers) accepted that Reality is pure consciousness. Dharmakirti, clearly says that the Reality, which is pure consciousness, is beyond all words, names, and concepts.9 Santaraksita, as has been earlier mentioned, criticises Atman associated with ego or Ego-self (ahankarasrita-cittam). Reality for him is one without a second. It is Citta which is self-luminous, consciousness and free from all impurities, impositions.80 Like later Vedantins, he explioitly maintained that realisation of pure self is true knowledge. Even he uses the word selfrealisation i.e. visuddhatmadarsana.81 We can now draw the conclusion from all these Buddhist statements that Atman of the Upanisads is generally misunderstood as Individual Ego or Buddhi or Jivatman as associated with ego, maya or ignorance, and, on the other hand, the real Atman or Brahman of the Vedantins understood or called by different terms like Dharma, Bodhi, Tathata, Dharmadhatu, Prajnapti-matra, and Pure Citta. The ego (ahamkara) is condemned not only by the Buddhists; in fact all the schools of Indian Philosophy condemned it as an obstacle in the path of selfrealisation. The conflict, between the Buddhists and the later Vedantins originates Page #475 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 150 Y. S. Shastri from the misunderstanding of the word Atman by the Buddhists. One can easily make out from the critical survey of conception of non-soul theory of the Buddhist texts, that Buddha himself is greatly responsible for this misunderstanding. Principally, there is no difference between the Ultimate Reality of the Vedantins and the Buddhists. Due to this misunderstanding created by Buddha, they sans raison fought with each other on the philosophical battle field. C.D. Sharma haj rightly pointed out that : "had Buddha refrained from committing an error of commission in degrading the Upanisadic Atman to the level of the empirical ego and also an error of omission in not identifying his Bodhi or Prajna with the Upanisadic Atman or Brahman, the age-old battle regarding the Nairatmyavada fought without any reasonable ground by the Buddhists and the Vedantins on the soil of Indian philosopny would have been surely avoided."82 Notes & References 1.

Dalsukh Malvania. It is only appropriate, as a small token of my respect and gratitude to Pt. Malvania, to contribute a paper which is directly connected to what he taught me. I have chosen, therefore, to deal here with a Lokayata fragment as it appears in a Jaina source. The Jainas, no doubt, have made a most original and important contribution to Indian philosophy. However, the importance of the Jaina sources goes far beyond Jaina philosophy itself. Their importance for the study of all other systems of Indian philosophy cannot be underrated, for in no other system is the purvapak sa presented with such honesty and thoroughness. Strangely enough, although modern research on the Lokayata school of thought was done exclusively by scholars who were interested in pramanasustru, their studies are mainly concerned with the Brhaspatisutru, while the Lokayata logicians are almost completely ignored. It is well known that ever since Dinnaga, epistemological and logical problems came into the foreground of Indian philosophy. Every philosophical school had to respond to the new discoveries made by Dinnaga and his follower Dharmakirti, and the Lokayata school was no exception to this rule. The old Lokayata arguments which were convincing enough as long as inferences were based on simple analogies, could no longer be applied to the new, well-established inferences, which were based on universal concomitance (vyapti). In order to stick to the old doctrine according to which inference is not a valid means of knowledge, the Lokayatikas developed a new kind of self-destructive logic: inferences which prove that no inference is valid. In what follows I shall try to present three different interpretations for one of these inferences :the Paurandara-sutra. The sutra reads': pramunasyagaunatrad anumanad artha-niscuyo durlabhah. "Determination of object through inference is impossible, because means-of-knowledge is not secondary." The only one I know of who has tried to explain the Paurandara-sutra is Professor Solomon in her study of Bhatta Udbhata. Her explanation follows closely Vadi Devasuri's Syadvadaratnakara. "The nature of hetu (reason), which gives rise to inferences is that it is paksa-dharma, attribute of the paksa (the minor term, or subject of the syllogism). Now, the paksa is of the nature of an aggregate of attributeand-thing; the total entity constituted of the thing and its attributes is called paksa. And if that is not ascertained, how can it be ascertained that the hetu is its attribute; Page #480 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Paurandnrusatra 155 and if the paksa is ascertained, anumana would no longer have any purpose to serve. So in order to establish or justify the usage of paksadharma (as defining characteristic of hetu), the word paksa, though conventionally denoting the aggregate of attributesand-thing, has necessarily to be understood in a secondary sense as indicating or meaning the thing (alone), which is a part of the total denotation. Thus the paksa is gauna (secondary), and that being so, the he tu also is gauna because it is its attribute. So anumana, which is produced by a gauna cause, is also gauna, and being gauna it is not a pramana."' In my opinion the above explanation does not make sense, and I will try to explain the sutra differently. However, what follows should by no means be considered as a criticism of E. Solomon who simply explains Vadi Devasuri's interpretation of Purandara, and in so far her explanation is most accurate. I also think she is probably right in assuming that the above interpretation induced Bhatta Udbhata to give a new interpretation of the sutra. I do not think, however, that Vadi's interpretation conveys the original meaning of the sutra, for it simply makes no sense. First note the exact words of the hetu : 'pramanasyagaunatvat'. If Purandara wanted to say what Vadi says he wanted to say, this would be a very oblique way of expressing himself--a gauna argument indeed--for he could simply say paksasyagaunatvat. But this in itself is not enough to discredit Vadi's interpretation; so let us take a closer look at the content of the argument. According to Vadi, Purandara's argument is based on the fact that, when applied to inference, the word paksa is used in a secondary or metaphorical meaning (upacara). Now, the question that arises is : Is there something wrong in using a word, and more specifically the word paksa, in a secondary meaning ? The Sanskrit texts provide a definite answer to this question: under certain conditions, there is nothing wrong with using the word paksa in its secondary meaning. The use of the word paksa in its secondary meaning goes back to Dinnaga (PS, HII. 8)4, and at the beginning of the Hetubindu Dharmakirti enters into a rather detailed polemic against Isvarasena in order to justify Dinnaga's position. By looking into this polemic we can see when the word may be used in its secondary meaning, and when not. Isvarasena's objection is quite clear5 : prayojanabhavad anupacarah. Thus the argument presupposes that one should not use a word in a metaphorical sense unless one has a reason or a purpose (prayojana) for doing so. And Dharmakirti's answer shows that he shares Isvarasena's presupposition, for it consists in showing that Dinnaga had good reasons for the employment of the word paksa in its secondary meaning. Therefore, if Purandara wanted to convince anybody of his argument, one would expect him to give some reason why the metaphorical use is not appropriate Page #481 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 156 Not only does he not do so, but, as a matter of fact, he argues (again according to Vadi) in favour of the opposite view: In order to establish the usage of pak sadharma (paksadharma-vyavahara-siddhaye), the word paksa has to must be employed in its secondary meaning to denote the dharmin alone (paksa-sabdas tad-ekadese dharminyupacaraniyah). But this presupposes that one should never use a word in its secondary meaning, which is nonsense. Eli Franco Now, if an argument makes no sense it is always better to assume that we do not understand it, or that something went wrong with the transmission of its original meaning, rather than to conclude that the argument really is nonsensical. When we deal with Lokayata fragments, we have to be even more cautious, because they appear to us not in their original context, but as purvapaksas in their opponents" works, and in such a case even a deliberate misrepresentation cannot be excluded. Therefore, before we can reconstruct the original meaning of a fragment, we have to take into account all sources where it is quoted or referred to. If a fragment is always interpreted in them in the same manner, and if this interpretation is acceptable within the general framework of Lokayata, we can reasonably conclude that its original meaning is not misrepresented or misunderstood. This, however, is not the case with the Paurandarasutra, for two more interpretations of it are to be found in Prabhacandra's Prameyakamalamartanda (PKM) p. 473.8-9 yac-cagaunatvat pramanasyety uktam tatranumanasya kuto (gaunatvam,] gaunartha-visayatvat, pratyaksa purvakatvad va? "As for the (hetu) stated above, namely 'because a means of knowledge is not secondary', why [does it apply] to inference? Is it because its object is a secondary (i.e. unreal) thing, or is it because it is preceded by perception?" According to the first interpretation given by Prabhacandra the word gauna directly refers to inference, and not indirectly through the word paksa as stated by Vadi Deva. In other words, the argument intends to show that inference is not a means of, knowledge in the strict sense of the word. When formulated in this way, one immediately recalls that this is precisely the Buddhist position, because every inference involves universals, and universals, according to the Buddhists, are pure mental constructions. As Dharmakirti paradoxically puts it: "[an inferential cognition] is right cognition, inspite of its being false, because it is connected with the object." Interpreted in this manner, the argument starts to make sense. It becomes convincing, for it shows up one of the weakest points in the Buddhist theory of knowledge. Indeed, the Buddhist logicians never quite managed to explain how an inference which has a fictitious entity for its object, is nevertheless connected with reality, and leads to efficient action. Attractive though it is, I feel uneasy about this interpretation, because it limits the scope of the argument to Buddhist inference alone, as was also clearly realized by Prabhacandra, for he says (PKM, 473.9-474.1): na tavad adyo vikalpah, anumanasyapy adhyaksavad vastava-samanya-visesatmakartha-visayatvabhyupagamat. khalu kalpite-samanyartha-visayam anumanam saugatavaj jainair istam Page #482 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Paurandarasutra 157 "The first alternative (i.e. that inference has an unreal object), to begin with it, is not applicable to our inference], because (we) accept that inference, just like perception, has for its object a real thing the character of which is general as well as particular. Unlike the Buddhists, the Jainas certainly do not accept an inference the object of which is a thing (that is) a mentally constructed universal." Of course, the argument of the Lokayata could be directed against a specific conception of anumana, but the sutra's formulation looks more like a general objection against inference. If the sutra is to be undersood as a general argument against inference, then it presupposes a refutation of the universal, and since its original context is unknown to us, this possibility cannot be excluded. I cannot see, therefore, any reason to reject this interpretation. However, the second interpretation proposed by Prabhacandra is at least equally possible. According to this interpretation, the argument does not have anything to do with the primary or secondary meaning of words. (Note how the meaning of the word gauna changes according to the different interpretations.) It is inference, the cognitive process itself, which is secondary, and it is secondary to perception. A mere look at this interpretation immediately recalls the definition of inference given in the Nyayasutra 1.1.5 (tat-purvakam trividham anumanam...) where tat-refers to pratyak sa of 1.1.4). But unlike the previous interpretation, the present one is certainly not limited to the Nyaya theory of inference alone, for all Indian philosophers agree that inference, at least in the final analysis, is based on perception. One might ask : So what? we admit that inference is preceded by perception, but why should this fact prevent us from calling it a means of knowledge ? Taken at its face value, the argument seems to presuppose that a means of knowledge has to be absolutely autonomous, but this would be a rather strange presupposition. The Naiyayikas who defined inference as preceded by perception were not bothered by this dependence. Neither do I see anything in the dependence relation as such to prevent inference from being a means of knowledge. The dwarf who sits on the giant's shoulder depends on the giant, but neveptheless reaches higher. I think we have, therefore, to look for a more specific type of dependence relation. Unfortunately, the extant fragment does not specify which kind of dependence relation Purandara had in mind while formulating his argument, and in the present state of our knowledge we cannot reach any definite conclusion on this point. Drawing on our knowledge of other Indian philosophers, there are, roughly speaking, two reasons why a means of knowledge is not admitted. Either it is not valid (validity is not to be reduced to truthfulness, it can include other conditions such as having a new object etc.), or it is included in another means of knowledge Page #483 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 158 Eli Fronco (for the Buddhists for instance, sabda is not a pramana because it is included in anumana). As a matter of fact, Prabhacandra considers the second possibility at the very beginning of the Carvaka-purvapaksa (PKM, 472.2-3): ye hi pratyaksain ekam eva pramanam ity acaksate na tesam anumanadi-pramanantarasyantarbhavah sambhavati tad-vilaksanatvad vibhinna-samagri-prabhavatvac ca. "Those who say that perception is the one and only means of knowledge, for them inference and the other means of knowledge cannot be included [in perception), because they f.e. the other means of knowledge) are defined differently (from perception), and because they arise from different causal complexes." of course, we cannot conclude that the Carvakas in fact maintained this position just because the possibility is raised (and rejected). If, on the other hand, the dependence of inference on perception is to be understood in such a way that it invalidates inference completely (i.e. as a means of knowledge in the technical sense of the word, this does not stand in contradiction to accepting inference as useful for everyday purposes, cf. below), then the dependence has probably to be understood as the dependence on the apprehension of vyapti. Now, the apprehension of vyapti is not due to inference itself, because in order to make an inference, one already has to know a vyapti. Cf. PKM, 473.3-4 : napi (vyapti-grahanim] anumanatch, asya vyapti-grahana-purassaratvat, tatrapy anumanato vyapti-grahane 'navasthetaretar asrayatva-dosa-prasangah. "Nor is (the apprehension of vyapti] due to inference, because it (i.e. inference) is preceded by the apprehension of vyapti. If there too (i.e. in the case of the vyapti which precedes the inference) the apprehension of vyapti is due to inference, this will result in the fallacies of infinite regress or mutual dependence." If one cannot apprehend the vyapti by inference, it has to be apprehended by perception, but the vyapti cannot be apprehended by perception either, because perception is limited to objects which are directly in contact with one's sense organs, whereas the vyapti applies to a whole group of things which are beyond the range of one's sense organs. Thus, inference not only depends on perception, but it also depends upon something perception cannot provide, and that is why it is not valid. There is still another way of interpreting the dependence of inference on perception. Suppose, at least for the sake of argument, we somehow manage to get an apprehension of vyapti through perception. Now, a vyapti relation does not obtain between particulars, but between universals alone. Thus, an inference cannot have a particular for its object, for in that case there will be no vyapti. But if an inference has an universal for its object, then it serves no purpose, for the universal is already known before the inference is undertaken. Thus, inference is secondary to perception. because it apprehends an object already apprehended by perception. Cf, PKM, 472, Page #484 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Paurandaras utra 159 5-6 artha-niscayakam ca jnanam pramanam, na ca anumanad artha-niscayo ghatatesamanye siddha-sadhanad visese anugamabhavat. "And a means of knowledge is a cognition which determines the object, but the determination of the object through inference is impossible, because if (the object of the inference is) a universal, it is a proof of what is already proved, [and] if [the object of the inference is) a particular, there is no concomitance." It is clear from the above that I do not claim that any of these interpretations was actually intended by Purandara. What I have tried to do is to give possible explanation of the sutra within the Lokayata framework, that is, by using arguments which we know for sure to have been advocated by the Lokayatikas. The passages quoted from Prabhacandra follow immediately upon the quotation of the sutra, but we do not even know whether these arguments were formulated by Purandara or by other Lokayatikas and even if they are all Purandara's, they could be independent arguments which did not have anything to do with the sutra. Whatever the case may be, there is one more question to be asked : what did Purandara try to accomplish with his argument ? He certainly did not try to discard inference altogether, for in a fragment quoted by Kamalasila he clearly states the opposite view : 10 Purandaras tv aha "loka-prasiddham anumanam carvakair apis yata eva, yat tu kaiscil laukikam margam atikramyanumanam ucyate, tan nisedhate" iti. "Purandara said: 'inference which is well known in the world is certainly accepted by the Carvakas too, but that which is taught as (or : called) inference by certain (would-be philosophers] who transgress (with it] the worldly path (i.e. everyday innocuous inferences), that is rejected." If we put these two fragments together (they are to the best of my knowledge the only ones of Purandara that have come down to us), the picture becomes clearer, for now we know that the sutra's aim is not to discard inference altogether, but to limit its scope to worldly affairs. By denying inference an independent status, that is, by emphasizing its dependence (gauna ) on perception, Purandara wanted to restrict the field of operation ( visaya ) of inference to that of perceptible objects. This is probably the most significant contribution of Purandara to the Lokayata school (at least it is the one for which he is remembered), and in order to understand its importance, we have to reconstruct its necessity. The old position of the school as formulated in the Brhaspati-sutra, namely perception alone is a means of knowledge, involved too many internal contradictions which became apparent when the theory of knowledge became the central preoccupation of Indian philosophers. Dharmakirti, for instance, formulated at the beginning of the Pramanaviniscayall three short, but devastating arguments against the Carvaka, and many more could be formulated in a similar vein. Arguments like these had to be urgently answered, or the Carvaka would have been kicked out of the philosophical scene. Page #485 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 160 Eli Franco Purandara's answer consists in complying with this kind of argument without giving up the basic Lokayata positions. Thus inference was accepted as far as it did not, or better, could not, contradict the Lokayata positions, but as soon it was to be applied to prove the existence of Soul, God and other non-perceptible objects, which could endanger, if not annihilate, all the Lokayatikas were fighting for-and I think it was ultimately to found social and political institutions independently of religious dogma-it was to be rejected as a non-valid means of knowledge. In order to do this Purandara had to admit inference, but only up to a point, which is a rather difficult task, for once inference is accepted, there is no apparent reason why one should use it only as long as it suits the Lokayata. Thus, the task which presented itself to Purandara was to find a reason why inference should never overlap perception. And his answer probably was : because it depends upon perception. I argued above that Prabhacandra's interpretations of the sutra are to be prefered to those of Vadi Deva and the others, because they make more sense. Now, suppose I am right in my premises, and that the sutra does make better sense that way, does it follow that this was the original intention of the sutra ? Let me argue briefly in favour of the opposite view. The sutra is mentioned and explained several times, and the majority of the sources interpret it in the same manner. Should we not accept the interpretation favoured by the majority ? Moreover, Jayanta and Bhasarvajna are roughly two centuries earlier than Parbhacandra (active c. A.D. 1025-1060), which means they are closer to Purandara's own time, and had, therefore, a better chance of first hand acquaintance with his work. Further, Jayanta and the others give one sole interpretation of the sutra, whereas Prabhacandra brings up two vikalpas in the PKM and no less than nine in the NKC. From this fact we can conclude that they were sure about the sutra's meaning, whereas Prabhacandra was not quite certain about it. Considering all this, we could make the following assumption : Bhasarvajna and Jayanta were well acquainted with Purandara's thought, whereas Prabhacandra had only a fragmentary knowledge of it, and interpreted a nonsensical argument in an intelligent manner, but one which does not convey the original purport of the argument. Such a view, however, no matter how well formulated, is self-defeating. There can be no reason why we should accept an illogical, confused interpretation rather than a logical one, for this would involve a contradiction in our presupposition. If we do not want to make our authors talk good sense, we have no business to comment upon them. Besides, any such reasoning can be cancelled by selfreference. All this does not mean, of course, that what we take to be a nonsensical argument is in fact nonsensical, for we may have misunderstood it. But as long as our Page #486 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Paurandarasutra 161 ignorance is not enlightened, we have to stick to what we deem the more reasonable interpretation. Now, if the interpretation given by Vadi Deva and the others is untrue, why was it repeated over and over again ? They may have taken it from each other, or from a source unknown to us, but this is begging the question, for it arises again : Why was there at all an untrue interpretation of the sutra ? Frankly, I don't know; I can only suggest a hypothesis : it is due to a juxtaposition of two things which do not belong together. Someone who had DharmakTrti's discussion of the word 'paksa' in mind, concluded wrongly that Purandara was referring to it in his sutra. Having rejected the paksa interpretation we are still faced with the problem, which of the other two interpretations is to be accepted. Here we cannot argue on grounds of method, because both of them make sense, and both of them are compatible with the Lokayata position. The only way to decide between these interpretations would be to check the context. But dealing as we do with fragments, we have no context. Moreover, for what we know, it may have been both, for sutras are sometimes deliberately formulated vaguely enough to allow different interpretations. For the time being, I can see no way but to leave this question open. NOTES 1. The sutra is quoted in the following books : Nyayabhusana of Bhasarvajna, ed., S.

D. Daye A discussion of the problems of the translation of PA terms and AngloEuropean logical terms is always in order, for to translate the vocabulary of the former into the vocabulary of the latter is to presuppose some implicit theories of and assumptions about logic. In this light, I shall consider the three widely used Sanskrit PA terms, paksa, hetu and drstanta. Thesis (paksa') : this word is used interchangeably with pratijna, e. g., as in pratijnadosa, 'faults of the thesis statement. The word 'paksa' has been used in three senses; paksal is the statement of the thesis or conclusion of the PA schema, i. e., the whole statement "Sound ( sabda ) is impermanent (anitya ) 2, 2.1, 2.3-4, 3.1 ); paksa refers to property ( dharma ) of the thesis (paksa') which is extensionally equivalent to the sadhya (the property-dharma-to-be-justified, 2.2, 2.4, 3.2.2 (5), 3.2.2 (4), e.2.2 (5); paksa has one occurrence in the NP ( 2.1. (1)) where it has been used to refer to the dharmin ("locus/property-possesser") of the dharma "property of the sadhya ("property-to-be justified" ) which is held to be concomitant with the sadhana dharma ("justifier-property," (hetu?) of the justification ascription (hetul ) (2.2) : Both words, "hetul.2" (below) and "paksa 1.2.3", have been much equivocated upon in this early period; sometimes a property was meant, paksaa; other times the whole proposition (or ascription ) paksal has been referred to by this word. The translation 'conclusion" for paksal may suggest that "paksa; is the sequential end of a true deductive or inductive inference-schema. I would hold that the PA is closer to a formalistic deductive explanation, rather than a clear deductive inference; hence the less restrictive "thesis" seems more appropriate for paksa. The awkwardness of translating paksa may be lessened by indicating the meaning of the paksadharmin in "thesis-locus." Other well-worn words of twentieth century nyaya studies, hardly to be called "standard," merely common, such as "subject ( and ) predicate", "probans" or, "minor terms", are misleading. First, the logician's use of the former two terms is significantly different from a grammarian's use; second, their metalogical assumptions are simply out of date. "Justification" (hetu ) also exhibits an equivocation; hetu? is the whole ascription because of its being a ) causally generated thing (kstakatvat )"; the usual transformation of the ascription into a statement is another etic but implicit transformation rule sometimes ignored by nyaya scholars. I hold that "justification" is a better translation of hetul; hetul is the ascriptive "statement" which indicates the Page #490 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Un the Transiation of the Basic Nyaya Terms 165 specific property ( the hetuo dharma ) of the justification-member (hetu) ( for hetu: 2.1-4; hetu? : 2.2, 2.3 ); hetu" refers to a property (dharma). I suggest 'justifier' for hetu? rather than 'mark' or 'reason'. First, it is better because hetu' refers to the ascriptive statement, not the property (dharma ) which is either empirically observable ( rare in the NP ) or is mutually presupposed within the context of the competitive darsana(s) (philosophical schools ) context. If this property ( dharma ) ( hetu) is emically acceptable, by observation or, as is more likely, by finding no contradiction in it's assertion with one's darsana philosophy, and if the concomitance elicited in the warrant (drstanal ) is acceptable, then the acceptance of both (hetu' and hetu? ) is at least a necessary condition for concluding that the thesis-member (paksa') is legitimate. A rule of logical debate ( vada ) is that both or all parties to the evaluation of the PA must accept the justifier-property (hetu). The metaphysical limitations presupposed by many of the opposing darsanas regarding the latter rule make such evaluation processes of PAs non-deductive but not nonformal. Mr. Tachikawa translates the property, hetu" as 'mark', one-half of the concomitance of the two properties. I take it here that he is also alluding to the common term 'linga' (mark ), as found in the Nyaya Sutra and also in the Nyaya Sutra Bhasya of the darsana. While it is true that in the orthodox (astika) Nyaya darsana'consideration' or 'reflection (paramarsa) on the mark ( linga) of the hetul may be the sufficient condition for noting the concomitance of the two properties postulated in the PA and thus the legitimacy of a paksal-pratijna, no such discussion of paramarsa is found in either the Nyayapravesa or the Nyayamukha. I would suggest "justification' for 'hetu?, (the ascription ) and justifier' for Chetu, the observable or assumed darsana-restricted property. Such translations reflect the important distinction between hetul and hetu", whereas 'mark,' reason,' predicate', 'middle term', or 'probans', do not so distinguish. Such words as 'mark' obviously overemphasizes 'hetu?, 'while obscuring the ascriptive 'hetul.' In a modern context where many scholars have all-too readily supplied dummy subjects to make hetul into a proposition, which it is not (ityaha ), it is important to make this distinction explicit. : "Warrant" (drstanta', 2.1, 2.3). Although the word 'concomitance' or 'pervasion' ( vyapti ) as is commonly found in the later tradition, is absent in the NP, clearly the concept of two concomitant properties is operative; this relation we find expressed in the dpstanta. There are three major components of the drstanta statement. First there is the "yat. . .tat," conditional proposition stating the concomitance of two properties, drstantal; second there is dpstanta", the similar exemplification' (sapaksa ) and third, the dissimilar exemplification' ( vipaksa ). All three are referred to simply as the 'drstanta' in the text. The whole drstanta functions in this text as the expression of an exemplified warrant, which when juxtaposed with the protometalogical rule (trirupahetu ) and when satisfied, serves as a necessary condition Page #491 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 166 D. D. Daye for legitimizing the thesis ( paksal ). The two exemplifications (sapaksa, and vipaksa-drstanta?) of the warrant serve to satisfy : (1) the need for the loci or exemplification of the two necessary conditions of the three-fold trirupa hetuo rule and, (2) the early Indian rhetorical tradition which has its historical roots in the Nyaya Sutra. This tradition required the presence of (generally) "concrete" exemplifications, perhaps as a vestige of the earliest arguments by analogy. The drstanta", the sapaksa and vipaksa, and the great metalogical role they play in non-deductive mode of argumentation, leads one to suggest that the use of the term "drstanta"? is historically prior to "drstanta."l While my translations of paksal and hetul are not the more common ones, such as proposition/conclusion" and "reason" respectively, my translation of drstanta! as swarrant" is much more controversial and hence requires a more complex justification. We shall now turn to a justification of the translation of drstantal as "warrant". In the history of secondary scholarship about the Buddhist PA, "pstanta" has been usually translated as either "example" or "exemplification." Emically, there are two metalogical types of drstanta(s): "concordant" (sadharmya) and "discordant" (vaidharmya). Sometimes, in the texts, the conditional "yat...tat" is referred to the word "drstanta" ; so sometimes the sapaksa and vipaksa exemplifications are meant, another equivocation. Let us first dispose of two responses to my non-traditional translation of drstanta as "warrant," that it is neither a "standard" translation nor as etymological one. That is, "warrant" does not convey the metaphor of exemplification, as indicated in the etymology of dpstanta (vdrst, to see, to visually observe), the statement of the example in which the concomitant properties, or their joint absence, are illustrated. To claim that one should translate etymologically, that "drstanta"] "means" example, illustration or exemplification, may be refuted by a counter-example concerning "paksa". If etymological translation is of primary importance in nyaya texts, then we should translate "paksa" as "wing." Of course we should not do so, for the word "paksa" has acquired a semi-technical meaning in nyaya kada and a simple claim to translate in such a manner illustrates the methodological inappropriateness of trying to justify translating "drstanta"l solely on etymological grounds rather than on emic and etic logical grounds. Since 1900, scholars have struggled with many difficult nyaya translation problems, but given the multiplicity of logics, syllogistics, propositional and predicate calculi, even the logic of relations, which have been used with and projected upon the PA, there is no more a "standard" translation than there is a standard source language logic. The comparisons and variations in the PA sources, in the target logics of formal translation and comparative metalogical interpretations, are the theoretical sources of the metalogical evidence for selecting a new translation of any PA term; it Page #492 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ On the Translation of the Bosic Nyaya Terms 167 is so with drstantal and my point is that most scholars have discounted the metalogical function of the dpstanta' (conditional) and have emphasized the dostanta? function of referring to the descriptive exemplifications (sapaksa, vipaksa) of concomitance. This latter emphasis is quite in accord with the emic PA process of the justification of the legitimacy of a specific PA; however, while such scholars so emphasize in the drstanta, they usually project other non-emic assumptions onto the PA, for example, formal deductive validity. We shall examine ten textual sources of evidence in the NP regarding my case for "warrant." The text employs drstanta? in only six cases among ten in the fallacies of the concordant drstanta (sadharmya) (3.3.3.1-3) and the discordant dnstanta (vaidharmya) (3.3.2.1-3). The remaining four cases of drstantal (3.3.1.4,5 and 3.3.2.4,5) explicitly require both the conditional statement, drstantal with the conditional expression of drstanta' in the proper order (3.3.1.5 and 3.3.2.5). This completes the distribution of drstantal-2 in the ten sadharmya and vaidharmya fallacies. The discordant drstanta (vaidharmya, 3.3.2.1-3) and drstanta', the conditional (yat... tat) as in the last two fallacies (3.3.2.4, 5) is repeated as in the concordant section (3.3.1.1-5). Thus for a PA drstanta not to be fallacious, one must explicitly state the drstanta in correct conditional form. Now we shall turn first to the drstanta? because this side of the equivocation is the usual referent when the term "drstanta" is employed emically. The following is a translation of drstanta? where the focus is upon the similar exemplification (sapaksa) rather than on the conditional dnstantal, thus it is an example of dnstanta. Sadhana-dharma-asiddha. "A fallacious warrant is one in which the property (dharma (=hetu?) of the means of proof (sadhana) is not established (asiddha)" as in the following: "The property-to-be-proved, permanence, resides in the exemplification, atom, but the property of the means of proof, corporeality, does not exist in the exemplification, atoms, because atoms are corporeal" (3.3.1(1)). This instance of the fallacy of the drstantadoes not focus on the conditional warrant but focuses on 1) the exemplification sapaksa as the dual loci (dharmin) of two properties and 2) the presence of the sadhya-dharma and the absence of the sadhana-dharma in the exemplification. Tachikwa notes this, but he fails to recognize the (fallacious) significance of the explicit informal fallacy of equivocation which has occurred here with the concordant (sadharmya) "drstanta". The first three fallacies (abhasa(s)) (in 3.3.1.1-3) are about drstanta-as-sapaksa; the last two (3.3.1.4, 5) are about the conditional statements (yat.. tat) drstanta, the pattern of three drstantais repeated with discordant drstanta (vaidharmya, 3.3.2.1-3 and 3.3.2.4, 5). Drstantal denotes the conditional warrant; dostanta denotes the exemplifications as dharmins. However, it is well to note that to omit drstantal is to violate a necessary condition of a legitimate PA; that is, it is fallacious to so omit Page #493 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 168 D. D. Daye drstantal regardless of what the recipient "understands" about the "understood" concomitance of a particular PA (3.3.1.4, 5 and 3.3.2.4, 5). I now offer two translations and comments regarding drstantal about which shall argue in my discussion of the justification of dnstantal as "warrant". The fallacy of the absence of a conditional formulation of concomitance (3.3.1. (4)) "Ananvaya" is the name of the fallacy of a statement of (positive) concomitance which lacks the conditional form. "A fallacious warrant (dsstantal) is where a statement of (positive) concomitance (which expresses) the co-existence of both the property-to-be-proved and the property of the means of proof, lacks explicit illustration; hence, it is well-known that (the properties of) being causally generated and impermanence reside in a pot." Note that this fallacy ("resemblance" (abhasa) of a legitimate PA) is an extension of a legitimate PA, as in Model I. However the explicit statement of the conditional warrant is missing, "whatever is causally, that is impermanent generated." Thus the explicit presence of the conditional warrant, not just the statement of the similar exemplification nor merely the juxtaposition of the properties, is a necessary condition for a legitimate PA. If the statement of the drstanta! is necessary, what then, is its metalogical function, its logical role? My emic conclusion is that it may be described as an implicit emic rule disguised as an alleged universally quantified law of concomitance. In the other three fallacies of the drstanta (3.3.1.1-3), excluding the fifth fallacy of an improperly) reversed warrant, the justification of fallaciousness focusses not upon the conditional warrant (drstantal) but upon the presence and/or absence of the justifier (hetu) and thesis properties (paksa=sadhya) in the similar exemplification (sapaksa). Thus the fallaciousness of the conditional warrant (drstantal) is quite different than the fallaciousness of the first three fallacious uses of the term "drstanta?." This emphasis upon the presence or absence of the alleged concomitant properties in the exemplifications and the metalogical procedures of ignoring the etic potential role of the drstanta', is a particular feature of the (metalogical) mode of argumentation in this text. Hence, this focus upon the specific exemplification(s) and not on the warrant constitutes more evidence for the non-deductive nature of the PA and its emic metalogical theories and procedures. Consider the contrary: a) if there were an emphasis on the warrant and b) if the PA were asserted with the thesis last, preceded by the justification and the warrant, and c) if there were replacement or transformational rules for the rearrangement of the latter two (hetul and drstanta) and d) if there were explicit valid inference rules to which the nyaya logician could then appeal, to check, and against which to justify the PA at issue as in true deductive validity rules, then and only then, would we be able to make the case for and deductively argue that the PA is deductive, and in specific cases sound and vaild. Page #494 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ On the Translation of ihe Basic Nyaya Terms 169 But we do not find a, b, c, and d exhibited in the PA and its metalogical theories and procedures or modes of argumentation. To pursue these questions further, iet us consider the last fallacious warrant, the illicitly reversed expression of concomitance (viparitanvaya). Also relevant to our discussion is the fallacy of a reversed warrant (Viparitanvaya): An example of a fallaciously reversed warrant (3.3.1.(5)) follows : "A fallacious warrant (drstanta) which is illicitly reversed is, for example, where one states "whatever is impermanent, that is well known to be causa lly generated" when one should say (vaktavye) "whatever is causally generated, that is well known to be impermanent." Note that the preferred warrant here is the reversed order of the missing warrant of the last fallacious warrant 3.3.11(4); the latter fallacious warrant lacked "whatever if impermanent, that is causally generated" which is the fallacious instance quoted in this fifth of the fallacious warrants through similarity (sadharmya). Thus the PA model implicit here is different than the only other fallacious warrant (drstanta'). It is also clear that in neither "reversed" (viparita) fallacy (3.3.1.(5) or 3.3.2.(5)) is there any justification or evidence explicitly offered in the NP text as to why the warrant must be explicitly expressed. The reader is reminded that normative recommendation concerning the correct order of the conditional warrant does not constitute evidence for the issue of why the warrant is needed. While the text then offers no explicit evidence for the answer to this extremely important metalogical question, the reasons are not difficult for supply; it is the necessary requirement of the explicit expression of the relation of concomitance (vyapti). Given the textual evidence just cited we now turn to make the case for the translation of "warrant" for drstanta. First, there is the implicit but obvious and simple normative rule that one should not utilize fallacious PA expressions; to omit the proper expression of the conditional drstantal is to commit a fallacy (as in 3.3.1.4, 5). Thus one should not omit the conditional dnstantal regardless of how deceptively "clear" the PA seems without it. To do so is to commit an explicit emic fallacy; and to merely mention or simply conjoin the two properties in exposition is also to commit an emic fallacy (3.3.1.4). Second, the correct order of the conditional drstantal can be accurately described as the naming of the justifier (hetu?-dharma) as the antecedent of the conditional drstanta' and the property-to-be-justified (sadhya=paksa'-dharma) as the consequent. This is found in the legitimate PA (Model 1) where "causal generation" (krtakatva) is the name of the antecedent property and "impermanence" (anitya) is the name of the consequent of the conditional. The antecedent property "causal generation" is the justifier (hetudeg). This is purportedly concomitant with the consequent property named . in the drstanta'; this property (anitya) is the thesis-property (paksa) which is the property-to-be-justified (sadhya). This asymetrical relation of causally generated things and impermanent things is expressed in the conditional drstanta?, the absence Page #495 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 170 D. D. Daye or the improper formulation of which necessitates the legitimate charge of asserting a fallacious PA. The fifth fallacy (3.3.1.5) of concordance (drstantabhasa sadharmyanena) also illustrates the antecedent/consequent relation of the conditional described in the preceding sentences. Again, rules of fallaciousness are normative; hence the conditional form of drstanta' is the implicit expression of a normative rule, as was the rule stating the fallaciousness concerning the omission as the improper form of the conditional drstanta? (3.3.1.4); the warrant states the concomitance as a generic relation, a law. My translation of "warrant" conveys its normative rule-like metalogical function; "example" or "exemplification" do not convey this normative function of drstanta. Thus I have established two bases for normative rules with the drstanta fallacies (3.3.1.4, 5), its absence and improper form. Does "warrant" better express these normative factors than "example" or "exemplification" ? I think it clearly does. Both "example" and "exemplification" are usually taken as purely descriptive terms, whereas "warrant" explicitly conveys the metalogical normative function of drsta ata'. That is, the function of drstantal is to serve as an explicit license or authorization rule, the appeal to which not only reminds the recipient ( psychologically ) of the concomitance of justifier (hetu) and thesis property (sadhya-dharma), but the dsstantal serves as the basis of a universally quantified law utilized as a normative standard; it is a rule which authorizes and thus justifies the concomitance (vyapti) of the alleged concomitant properties of thesis-property and the justifier (paksa'=sadhya). This specific normative function of the rule in drstantal occurs at the metalogical level; additionally, drstantal as a metalogical rule instansitates the general tendency in early Buddhist nyaya (and of course, in Jaina and astika darsanas) to develop greater degrees of such general metalogical qualities as precision, clirity, formalism, freedom from error and formal explicitness. These metalogical qualities are repeatedly exhibited in nyaya texts in epistemology, ontology and in formal logic. Other instances of these qualities in the Buddhist PA are found in the development of the explicit metalogical content-free "wheel of justifier" (Hetu-cakra), the explicit metalogical rule of the three characteristics of the justifier "(trirupahetu"), the generation of such explicit metalogical terms as sadhya, sadhana, visesa, anumeya, prameya, the generalized property/possessor descriptive relation (dharma-dharmin), and the whole varigated metalogical theory of error (abhasa). The latter theory of error is clearly normative and constitutes a rich fund of implicit metalogical rules and illustrations not all of which have been made explicit in the few explicit metalogical rules such as the three characteristics of the justifier (trirupahetu) or in the few non-fallacious PA models. The paucity of non-fallacious models and the varigated complexity of the fallacies (abhasa) is necessary, for while it is easy to give an example of how a good Page #496 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ On the Translatton of the Basic Nyaya Terms 171 PA should appear, complete knowledge of the almost infinite string of possible PA's that people could possibly generate is impossible to anticipate. Thus the most efficient device for helping one evaluate this near infinite series of generated strings of PAs, is to codify an inclusive range and type of possible errors regarding the construction and justification of PAs. These PA models, metalogically explicit rules, and illustrations of errors constitute the normative base of evaluating PAs. The two normative characteristics of the last two fallacies of the drstantal with concordance (3.3.1.4, 5) are captured in the explicitly normative term "warrant," whereas, this normative quality is absent, or, at best, only very vaguely implicit in the translations "example" or "exemplification." As noted, the latter two candidates are primarily descriptive in meaning. It is the clear conveyance of the crucial normative meaning and rule of drsntatal as a universally quantified law used as a rule that provides the crucial evidence of the superior translation of "warrant" over "example" or exemplification." The term "exemplification" is exactly right for the sa paksa and vipaksa, for both, descriptively do exemplify, illustrate or exhibit the alleged concomitance of the properties, the justifier (hetu") and of the thesis (paksa). The roles of the sapaksa and vipaksa are illustrative but not primarily normative, whereas the role of the drstantal is primarily normative. My translations of drstantal and dsstanta conveys these descriptive and normative aspects more explicitly and accurately than other translations. In summary, four important points are now established; first, that, the absence of an explicit statement of either positively or negatively expressed concomitance (vyapti, although this word is not used in the NP) is fallacious. Second, it is clear that the mere juxtaposition, however accurately named, of the two properties of the thesis (paksa) and the justifier (hetu) is also fallacious. Third, the correct warrant (dnstanta') must express accurately in a conditional statement, the legitimate concomitant properties of the thesis (paksa=sadhya) as necessary condition, the consequent, and justifier (hetu?) as sufficient condition of the antecedent. These relations are to be expressed in an appropriate conditional statement such as "where there is causally generatedness, there is impermanence". Fourth, the characteristic of the discussion of the drstanta supports my claim ( argued elsewhere that the PA and its theories are neither deductive nor is validity an appropriate metalogical concept here. Given my analysis of these two types of metalogical errors (abhasa), the absence of the conditional statement and the illicitly reversed order, I would hold that the implicit normative rule-like functions of the drstanta (both sadharmya or vaidharmya) are explicitly expressed in "warrant" and significantly less (if at all) in either "example" or "exemplification." Thus I conclude that, by appeal to the implicit methodological rule that one should choose the more accurate technical translation, my case for translating "drstanta'l as "warrant" has been stated and so stands justified.

The other text, the NM, is the Chinese translation of Dignaga's Nyayamukha, Taisho, Vol, 32, 1628.

There follows my paradigmadic example, model 1, of the PA. The following is a representative example of a PA reconstructed from the Nyayapravesa. "An Introduction to Logical Analysis." This may be taken as a general paradigm of the Buddhist PA schemas; the old chestnut "the mountain has fire because it has somke" is not typical, for it is empirically contingent, whereas many Indian schemas are not directly empirically contingent at all.

Page #499 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ PHILOSOPHY OF ACARANGA SUTRA Joharimal Parikh The Acaranga, by common consensus, occupies a premier position in the entire Nirgrantha canon. This agama consists of two books, the first being the earlier, in point of kaet the earliest of all extant agamic works. The commentarial ancient tradition goes on to say that it is a compilation by Ganadhara-apostle as heard directly from Jina Vardhamana Mahavira. The writing begins with the clause 'O Longlived one, so have I heard the Lord saying' and each lecture ends with the words se bemi i.e. "I am repeating the same as heard": The second part is a later addition of details on monastic disciplinary rules embodied in appendices and schedules, the aggregate considered an annexure to the first, which is the principal part of the Volume. The currently available compilation of the Acaranga is the result of the collative editing of c. A. D. 503/516 and very possibly does not represent the full text of the original but is a faithful edition of the fragmentary remains of the original. Its style, the language of the prose part and the meters employed in the interspersed verses are the most archaic in all Ardhamagadhy canon. As the editing of the agamas was done by the Northern Church ( Vajri sakha in particular ), the possibility of its recognition by the Southern Church (Digambara), when it later came to know about it, was negligible. But it would be more than apparent to any scholar that, in the basic tenets, there is no conflict between the meaning and even the vocabulary of the first part of the Acaranga on one hand and the later substitute canon of the Southern Church. During the long period of the Nirgrantha history, the Digambara Church has not disputed or criticised the philosophy of the 1st book of the Acaranga. The present article is limited to the consideration of the first book of the Acaranga, with specific reference to its philosophical contents. The philosophy of the Acaranga can be summarised under the following heads in its own terminology (except the eighth which, though not specifically so mentioned in the Acaranga, its nucleus figures in the Sutrakrtanga and is a forerunner of the classical anekantavada or the Nirgrantha theory of the relativity of standpoints and conclusions.) A. Atmavada ( Acaranga 1.3; se atavadi ) Lokavada (1.3, se logavadi ) Karmavada (1.3, se kammavadi ) Kriyavada (1.3, se kiriyavadi ) E. Utthitavada ( 1.150; utthitavadam pavadamane ) Page #500 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Philosophy of Acaranga Sutra 173 F. Dhutavada (1.181, dhutavadam pavedayissami ) H. Anekantavada. The component "vada" has not been used here in the sense of dialogue or debate as in the syadvada but it has been used as in the compound samajavada i.e. belief in a doctrine followed by its right practice. Accidentally or otherwise, it is logical to explain the above heads in the same serial order in which they appear in the text. Before doing that an introductory remark be made ( in words of the Jina himself) that 'people in general are unaware from where have they come or what they were in the past or what shall be their future destination. Also, out of these ignorants, many do not bother to remove this 'ignorance' ( Acaranga 1.1 ). Only those who are inquisitive or raise doubts and possess an urge to remove these, can comprehend the world' (1.124). And when he thus becomes aware that he has come from "somewhere" and "I am that ( soham)" who had been roving from one birth to another and to all places and in all directions" he can be called atmavadi, lokavadi etc. (149). A. ATMAVADA A1. So he recognises the existence of soul and becomes atmavadi or believer in the existence of Self (3). In fact, existence of either this Universe or his own Self must never be denied because the denial of the one leads to the denial of the other also. The Self is the Knower and Knower is the Self. Both terms are synonymous. Knowledge takes place via the Self. Self can be comprehended through the process of knowledge (22-32). A2. Words fail to describe the nature of pure liberated Self, arguments cannot reason it out; it is not within the grasp of either mind or intellect. But 'conscience' does exist and is a known 'reality'. It is neither long nor short, neither circular nor triangular nor quadrangular nor round, neither black nor blue or violet, nor red nor yellow nor white. Its smell is neither good nor bad. It tastes neither pungent nor bitter nor astringent nor sour nor sweet; it is neither hard nor soft; neither heavy nor light, neither hot nor cold, neither greasy nor parched dry. It is bodyless, devoid of birth and death and cannot be contaminated. It is neither feminine nor masculine nor neuter. The subject (karta, author) of discriminative knowing and perceiving awareness does exist but without any simile. This intangible substancial entity is always there. It is beyond verbalization. Hence it is neither speech nor form, nor smell nor taste nor touch, indeed nothing of that sort. A3. The individual mundane 'soul-units' manifest themselves as earth beings, water, fire and air beings, vegetative life and moving creatures. These six categories of living beings exist on land, in plants, water, space, planets, and all types of bases; they take birth in various forms and the whole living organism passes its life in different categories. As is the case with the human species, there is a birth to vegetable plants, they also grow, they are also conscious and susceptible ( to feelings ns), they also become non-bloomy when cut, they also take food, they Page #501 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 176 Joharimal Parikh are as well mortal and they die, they also expand and shrink and their form also deteriorates (and progressively decays) in various ways. A4. There is complete 'self identity' between the doer of efforts for the nirvana or moksa (liberation, salvation, emancipation) and the one who attains it, the bondage as well as release is of, and by, one's own Self. B. LOKAVADA B1. That the believer in Self recognises the existence of this universe and is termed Lokavadi (believer in the existence of World or Universe). On all sides one perceives tangibles having sound, shape etc. ( i. e. smell, taste and touch) and the deluded one becomes engrossed in them- these sensory feelings amount everything to him. These sense-objects constitute the universe which in reality is nothing more than sense-objects. B2. One who is for sense-objects, rejoices that (a) these are my relatives; (b) this is my wealth and (c) treats his body as if it will last for ever. Such people all the time think of sensual pleasures and being fully occupied with activity, with the assistance of subservients (animals etc.), become engaged through all available means in the production for their own as well as their peoples' consumption; and they always try to strike the balance, more or less, for future with deep attachment. Many a people consider immovables etc. as their own, like the life full of riches, women and luxaries and are always busy enjoying it without seeing any wrong with it, because they think that the pleasant items are meant for enjoyment only. B3. (i) But human life is limited and when the power of senses is spent up, these (very) people feel nervous and frustrated and due to age become unfit for laughter, sex pleasure and for personal adorning. As a result, they at times become sick (a) Relatives with whom he lives sometimes part with, show disrespect, do not support, or criticise him, sometimes the reverse may also happen. In point of fact, neither he can be a solace for relatives nor can relatives be so for him. (b) Perchance he is able to amass large wealth but the same is divided by claimants, stolen away by thieves, taken away by the king, lost or destroyed by fire etc. and the poor fellow then regrets, for all the hard and cruel labour put in by him as if was for the benefit of others: For the sake of the 'body', people assault others but it is frail and perishable and whether seen inside or from outside it is likewise filthy and all the time foul matter is pouring out of it. Death, which invariably visits one day or the other, will put it to an end. By nature it is wasting, impermanent, everchanging, decaying and liable to growth as well as consumption. Its appearance is just circumstancial. Life-span cannot be increased; on the contrary, like a drop of water on a leaf, life can be destroyed by just a wave of wind. B3. (ii) A person absorbed in worldly pleasures is most often cruel towards other beings love for beauty leads to violence. He is full of tension and anxiety throughout the day and the night, all the time toils for wealth etc., becomes an Page #502 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Philosophy of Acaranga Sutra 177 exploiter and plunderer, takes uncalculated risks and feels uneasy. He grows full of deceit and greed and thereby enmity for himself. One has to face troubles before and after a sex event, (for) company with women results in friction. Death may separate him from sense-pleasures for an untold length of period; more so a person is under an illusion, he is unaware that even fulfilment of his wishes may not result in happiness. Besides these, the sense-objects are the basic cause for wandering in this world a man involved in them accumulates a heap of karmas which consequence in the cycle of births and deaths, grief, hell etc. Thus, one who looks for pleasure in these sense objects ultimately get unhappiness and miseries only due to his own mistaken acts. B4. One who knows the true nature of these sense-objects knows the Self, Vedas, religion, Brahman; and being enlightened comes to know this universe with his super intellect and is called a 'Muni' (a candidate for nirvana) and that master of religion with sterling transparence recognises them as the root cause of roaming in the world. B5. Doubtless, it is difficult to win over these senses but realising the futility of sense-pleasures, people with right understanding conquer them, reach a higher stage which lies beyond them, cross the worldly bondage and free themselves from the transmigratory cycle. Whether agreeable or not, it makes no difference to them; rather they have no preferences left and bear with all types of smell etc. While eating, they do not even change jaw sides for the sake of tongue or the taste. As the case of sexual pleasure is most disastrous, a wise man should avoid woman as of no use; and to overcome this urge one should reduce his diet or stand right up on the top, change his abode and even fast but never allow himself to be subdued by this passion. He denies the consumption of pleasant things though coming in the routine and forbids in advance the non-user thereof. Once having given up the use of attractive items, one should never go back to them ( it is something like licking the spit ) and should not even recollect those past incidents when he had enjoyed worldly pleasures. Knowing the true nature of disease, body and death, a Muni, when sick or weak, does not show any eagerness for treatment and avoids the remedial measures involving violence. B6. This world is full of troubles; miseries of birth, old age and of 16 types of diseases; torturing by fellow-creatures and (many) other ( kinds of ) pains; all mean this little happiness here. Inspite of that, people are not serious enough to track the path for getting rid of it. B7. One must fully realise that 'I am all alone here, none is mine nor am I of others.' 'Man ! You alone are your ally, why hanker for outside help'. Do not crave for popularity with people. One should not be sensitive to public opinion and criticism by common folk. Should not be guided by the ruts of ill-informed mob-traditionalism. Cut down worldly attachments as well as intimate associations. That is the path of Justice. The 'wise one' disregards the irreligious people. One without attachment in this life shall be free of bondage in the next life also, Page #503 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 178 Joharimal Parikh C. KARMAVADA C1. The one who recognises the Self, and hence the world, recognises the karma theory also and is known as karmavadi. One fastened with the bondage of karma roams in all directions and occupies various positions in the space-world (extant continuum), is born again and again in different species, and suffers physically, mentally and otherwise. A nescient full of deceit and other passions, inertia and unalertness, deception and desires etc. forms a sort of vicious circle with the karma bondage and goes on rotating in the cycle of death and births and experiencing the other consequences as a continually running process. All beings have been born many a times in many places and varieties of living spacies in this universe. The metaphysics of karma in this connection should be thoroughly understood. Past and future are not all alike; one undergoes changes in next births due to karmas. Moving creatures may be reborn in stationary category and vice-versa. The process of exhaustion of karma bondage is self accelerating, destruction of one bond leads to the destruction of others and for complete destruction of one bond, the destruction of others is also necessary. C2. Troubles ensure due to one's own karmas. Karmas produce consequences and here or thereafter one will have to bear their fruits. Because of karmas, one is within the reach of death and hence away from release. Those who are bound by karmas cannot cross this ocean of birth and death. C3. But one who has destroyed the bondage of karmas becomes free from all troubles and crosses the cycle of birth and death because no cause survives for these events; he is neither within the reach of death nor is he away from salvation. C4. Therefore one who explores the process of cutting away of his karma bondage is a wise being. Fully knowing the cause and effect of all types of karmas, one should wholly concentrate on being relieved of their bondage in toto and thereby completely free himself from the cycle of death and birth. For a wise man there is nothing superior to nirvana. He must possess the true comprehension of the nature of) the Universe. To perpetuate the worldly existence and to go on suffering its sorrows is inadvisable. D. KRIYAVADA DI. He who believes in Self, universe and karma also believes in the theory of activity and is called kriyavadi. 'I got it done' and 'I shall approve of it being done', are thoughts and actions which are the causes of karma in this world, this 'actionego' creates bondage for the Self. The bulk of karmas have been piled up by vehement activation on one's part. Thus ultimately one's fate and destiny are one's own making. D2. And yet people (have to, indulge in activity for their livelihood, some for acquiring esteem, prestige, fame, love and for certain) power, etc. some for being relieved of this world and yet others for the removal of sorrows and unhappiness. Some Page #504 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Philosophy of Acaranga Sutra 179 persons, because they are much too entangled in worldly attachments, some being unaware of the consequences of what they are doing, some for body-limbs and animal products, some for a purpose, some even without a purpose, some for taking revenge, some to face attack, some under certain future apprehensions and to ward off against that; some of their kith and kin, guests and staff, some claiming themselves to be the curer of all ills and diseases and boasting of doging things which have never been accomplished by anybody in the past, some for acquiring powers of Self, community, friends, gods and pitrs (dead parents and forefathers), kings, thieves; guests, misers, hermits and others, some for fancy fads of theirs, some simply for the sake of pleasures, some because of addiction, some because of wrong notions and labouring under mistake, some for curing ailments, some being fickel minded enough to launch their fierce plans --lest the body will fall for want of food, etc. Some people (are worried about) supporting the body for proper working by way of duty; some finding that in this world other people are not seen following the ethics, religion etc., then why should they alone do it and hence they freely indulge in fierce activity leaving behind all restrains and discipline. D3. Therefore, people have been advised discriminative ( as against wholesale or complete) renouncement of activities based on intelligent mind-application with right knowledge. One should be very careful and weigh each and every action and its net consequences, because situations in life) are complicatedand on all sides there are sources of bondage and from them nothing escapes. This type of renouncement is the cure of all unhappiness and those who do not follow this course always remain in worldly grief. Well deliberated abstainment from furious activity is a feasible renunciation; ever alert attains it through evaluation on merits. One who is entangled in cruel activity is nescient about renunciation; whereas one who is away from it knows and follows the correct process of renunciation; those who is fully conversant with, and observes discriminative obstinence from, tormenting and rigorous activity is called a Muni. D4. Besides, these activities have been classified. Good actions result in good karmas and bad doings in bad ones. Further, enlightened ones have chalked out such a path that for the wise followers of it, there is little or no bondage of karmas. Brave people have treated that path, it is neither unknown nor an impossibility. And who fully avoids the way of karma bondage is known as liberated in this world itself as if freed and released. If a virtuous man of right perception without any carelessness whatsoever and whose self is totally undisturbed and who is disciplined and free from passions.happens to afflict others, the resultant karma bondage in his case will be very meagre-balances off soon in the next moment or in the life only. The same material source can bring us bondage or save us from bondage - karmic matter or outer form of action alone do not decide the issue. Life without incurring bondage can be lead both in the midst of the society as well as in forests. An unfit person fails to lead such life wherever he may live, whether in the forests or in the society. Page #505 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 180 E. UTTHITAVADA El. Fixing Moksa as the only object, the crucial point is to make efforts and exert for it and this is termed as Utthitavada. Look at the fate of inactive idlers, these escapist can nowhere move towards the goal, shall ever remain in bondage. Without reserving any of his faculties, one has to labour very hard with his full. vigour and might to achieve the above end; should strive in right earnest to became a tireless strong follower on the path of Moksa. Step by step he Moksa progress and would go on proceeding ahead. Joharimal Parikh E2. Make up your mind, say good-bye to lethargy and make the best of the present opportunity without wasting a single moment. Age is running away and so also the youth; therefore, without any postponement make hay while the power of senses last. Realise the value of precious occasion of this human life which is quite an elevated spiritual stage. Do not miss this golden chance, try your best. Always be alert and energetic and banish the inertia (of indolence). A wise aspirant ever remains awake and is on his guard, whereas lifeless lazy chaps always prefer sleeping. To cite, Jina Mahavira never went to bed with an idea of sleeping. Whatever little sleep he got was an indeliberate biological phenomenon and that too he used to avoid by meditating in open. People who feel at home in leisure and pleasure alone, and never want to tax their faculties, are on a wrong path; they become nuisance for others and break the vows already taken (if they live embraced the order of ascetics). Hence one should be incessantly careful and attentive and none of his activity be done without watchfulness and vigilance. E 3. The road to salvation is an arduous one: only the brave can tread over it while weaker ones fumble. Therefore the rules of prescribed conduct should be strictly followed with strong determination, and adversities be faced even at the cost of death. Who is afraid of difficulties is under constant fear and who sccumbs, revolves in the world-cycle for long. One should not be discomposed even if killed. As a warrior in the front of the battle field, he should encounter all hardships and adversities. Derive boldness from the fact that you alone are not a victim of these odds. Note: The subject matter of Utthitavada can be dealt with under the four divisions. as demonstrated below: T Spiritual aspect 1 (1) Samayika (Samabhava) (equanimity) (2) Ahimsa (non-violence) Utthitavada 1 Bodily & Mental aspect Page #506 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Philosophy of Acaranga Sutra 181 (3) Samyama (contraction) (4) Tapa (austerity) E4. (i) Samayika Dharma (religion) consists in Samayika. What one acknowledges Samayika one acknowledges it as 'Munihood' and what one acknowledges as Munihood that as Samayika. Samayika is the specific characteristic of a Muni. (157, 209, 161) E4. (ii) By knowing and identifying Samayika with soul in tone-perceptive, one gets self-bliss; does not remain unhappy. One should never allow oneself to be baffled or disturbed, but always keep tranquility and be self reconciled. Must remain self-contained and Self-oriented. With Samayika, a spiritualist 'falls in order' and is recognised as such. 'Restrain your own self, thereby you will be distress-free. Struggle with your self alone-no use fighting with externals. Chastise your Self, refine your Self. Always maintain purity of the Self, do not allow foreign adulteration. Keep your soul region stable, in perfect calm. E4. (iii) Eliminate four kasayas (passions) namely anger, pride, deceit and greed without which there would be no emancipation from karmic bondage. One should, exterminate anger, pride, deceit, greed, attachment, aversion, delusion, conception, birth, death, hell, animal-inception and agonies, because subjugation (or persuit) of each leads to the conquering of (or engagement in) the latter. This is the philosophy of those who are omniscients, liberated, devoid of violence and liquidators of the bondage. Short duration of human life cannot justify anger-expunge it. For times out of number, the same soul has taken birth in higher class of species like human beings and gods and for infinite period it had wandered in lower types of species like stationary, 2-3-4 sense-beings and animals. So there is no intrinsic difference between various classes of incarnate beings-souls resident in all of them are alike. Visualiz ing this, who will boast of his family stock, or feel proud of it and why shall he have affinity toward, or longing for, any? Therefore, a wise man should neither feel elevated nor dejected on account of his caste etc. and should expunge the sense of vanity of any sort whatsoever. Unless deceit is eradicated, there will be no progress towards nirvana. The greedless one is just like a liberated one. E4. (iv) Do not develop the mentality of liking and disliking-reject both forthwith. Bear everything with self-quiescence; do not allow these ideas to overpower you. Feeling of the absence of pleasure or presence of displeasure should not crop up. Cross that stage, go beyond them. E4. (v) Treat yourself exactly at par with others without claiming any privileges. Know all like yourself. E4. (vi) Realising this coming and going, one should put an end to the sentiments of attachment and aversion. On winning these two powerful enemies, Samayika reaches the stage that even if his body is cut into pieces, no feelings rise in him.

(i) Tapa : This is the most effective remedy and an affirmative step for destroy the already existing karmic bondage. One must make progress in the sphere of questions stage by stage. E7. (ii) Resort to fasting frequently-this penance can take various forms as to time, content, items, number, quantity etc. of meals. Reduce ( bodily ) flesh and blood. It is said that wise peoples' arms are lean and they are slim which spells brilliance and stamina. When due to age, sickness etc. body becomes unfit as an instrument for nirvana or one comes to know of his immediate death, he can abstain from food, water, medicines, movements etc. till death. Meticulous care has to be taken lest this sophisticated mortification may turn out to be a case of sucide. E7. (iii) Reduce the level of consumption and limit one's wants. O..e should have little clothings and can do without clothes in summer. Who feels neckedness a difficult discipline has been given a concession to use one loin cloth. Renounce your possessions to nullity. One should have frugal meals and use lifeless water for drinking. Abstinate from sex life and observe brahmacarya ( celibacy). Women, who are very expert in the art (of allouring), try to trap a man; so by way of prevention he should not (a) do her acts a menial(b) engage in the gossip about women, their beauty, sexual characteristic and anatomy etc. (c) should not talk and have intimacy with them in privacy;(d) should not look at the beautiful parts and sexually agressive moments of their body. One can make number of resolutions of austerities qua his religious routine and remain strict about them at the cost of heavy odds and even of death if the occasion so warrants- there is nothing improper in it. Have detached life and remain aloof from relatives and material paraphernalia-for this accelarates the process of destroying the accumulated karmas. Be habituated to endure vagaries of climate, nuiscance of insects etc. pains of sickness and other physical tortures. Do not even rub your eye or body even when there is an sesation. Train your body through exercises in hardships; do not allow it to be delicate. E7. (iv) Brisky contemplate in the right perspective. Concentrate and meditate. Practice kayotsarga ( as if taking soul out of the body ). Serve others by helping them directly in or indirectly attaining release. For the benefit of nescients etc. the learned ones should give discourses and instructions about liberation. But knowledge should be imparted to those who need, yearn and deserve it. Otherwise may be regress instead of progress. Wise ones do not need preaching. The preceptor should leave no stone unturned for training his disciples. Let him be the refuge for them for all purposes. F. DHUTAVADA F1. As a more effective method of destroying karmic-bondage, the institution of Dhutavada i. e. full time practitioner for nirvana throughout the rest of his life Page #509 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 184 Joharimal Parikh (as ag inst part time amateurs) has been prescribed and very highly recommended also. Accordingly, knowing the true nature of this world, one becomes a 'Muni' by rerouncing the householder's life, parts away from wife, relatives, wealth and other worldly involvements and leads a desireless and detached life with a strict disciplined routine. People of all the three age-groups are eligible to be admitted to this order. F2. On adoption of this hard course, their relatives etc, offer opposition and try to dissuaderthem by arguments, temptations or other measures and at times the weak and timid ones give way and continue or come back to house holder's life. Such persons are condemned even by the lay masses and they wander in the world for a long time. People who do not become Muni, yet not leave that order fall in the same category. Inspite of being in the company of the best of the Munis, one falls out due to delusion etc. Therefore, it has been said that easy-going, intimately affectionate, involved in sensual pleasures, deceitful, inactive and unalert and deeply attached to house holders' life and property is unfit to become a Muni. Sometimes one does not give up the formal Munihood but falls from its prescribed high conduct and due to delusion and sensual attraction leads a corrupt Muni life of his own liking. On being asked, he cuts a sorry figure -- in fact such a person is neither a householder nor a Muni--a loser both ways. Such perverted ones speak ill of their own preceptors, disobey them, and though not being real followers, criticise good monks and Munis and preach conduct to others, thinking themselves to be the wisest. They only talk and make a show of Munihood but in fact lapse into stronger bondage. F3. Admired ones are those who remain steadfast to the Muni conduct. One should maintain the zeal at the same high level at which he entered the order. At times a Muni is beaten, tortured by worms, insects, birds, and animals vagabonds, gods; and in various ways he is troubled by others : But he should face all such difficulties with equanimity and courageously, indeed without shirking down in the least from the lofty heights of conduct befitting a Muni. He should never be afraid of hostile area or atmosphere. F4. Till a Muni is not fully matured and conversant with rules of Muni life, scriptures, etc., it is risky for him to wander alone-he should have the company of the preceptor. Thereafter he may part away and lead alone the true Muni life. Sometimes, in order to hide their nescience, lethargy and other weaknesses, quarrelsome Munis lead a lonely life, but they are away from the right path because of their passions, hypocracy, fraud, self-praise and lustfullness. Generally, there should be no give and take of food, clothings, bowls, etc. amongst the Munis inter se-in exceptional cases help can be given. The ban is more strict qua the monks of other group, sect, or religion. Begged food etc. cannot be given in charity. A Muni should neither participate and fully mix up with householders nor take interest in folk-dances, dramas, entertainments, gossip and the like of the village. Page #510 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Philosophy of Acaranga Sutra 185 F4. An expert Muni, at proper time, should go to places where food etc. are available without any complex or aversion and carefully beg the permissible food, clothing, bowl, blanket, cleaning cloth, broom and mat necessarily required with no idea of accumulation. Without having a preconditioned adamant or committed attitude, he takes the things in the ordinary course. He should not feel elated if successful or sorry if unsuccessful in getting alms. Never quarrel with the donor -- adjust to his behaviour. The Muni should not accept anything which is living-the permissibility to use live water cannot be justified as correct by monks of other schools. He should not be a seeker of tastes, his clothing, mat, cot, etc. should be of a poor variety and fewer in number so as to be easily portable while going from place to place. He should put on the clothes as received without washing, dying, and mending. He cannot accept food prepared or brought for him or use the fire lit for him-should forbid in advance if comes to know of it. A Muni should never prove to be a hinderer for other beggars, birds, hermits, menials etc.-better walk away from there. He should not partake in purchasing operations for him. He can stay in burning-ghats, grottos, way-side places, or even under the trees. G. UTTARAVADA GI. "What has been preached by the Lord is my dharma" is a good precept for ordinary people. Such faith is Uttaravada i. e. the last word. Never act contrary to his preachings. Besides, we should follow the Lord also in his actions and abstainments. Always be engrossed in the philosophy inunciated by him, concentrate your mind on it; contemplate, perceive and understand it, try to follow it and assert for liberation with faith in these right fundamentals. Undoubtedly, the way of Jina Mahavira is the best for annihilation of the karmic bondage. Like an island we can feel safe in it. What is uttered by a Jina is truth alone and should not be doubted but believed as correct and acted upon. Bhagavan preached what he heard, perceived, contemplated and directly realised; and he himslf verified the same for he was always vigilant and alert. No further proof is needed for the words of an omniscient. People who have faith in this philosophy shall on due contemplation understand everything whether right or wrong in the proper perspective and cannot go astray whereas people with perverted faith shall misunderstand everything and cannot achieve selfconciliation. H. ANEKANTAVADA Hi. Knowledge can be gained by self-contemplation or through preceptor to preceptor-generation or by asking or hearing from omniscients and others. The enlightened ones know this entire universe from all sides and parts. Unless one knows all, we cannot know one comprehensively; in other words full, knowledge of one object means omniscience. Neiscients cannot know the dharma. Save yourself from people with false knowledge, know the truth alone and then only your efforts would be in the right direction leading to moksa. Vowless men with perverted faith advo Page #511 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 186 Joharimal Parikh cate salvation through nescience but this only augments the cycle of existence. Some say the same thing as spoken by omniscients. Many persons understand quickly while others cannot -- the latter become frustrated. H2. People in this world have various view-points which are not correctly arrived at. All sorts of conflicting statements are made e. g. Universe is a realityUniverse is a myth; it always remains constant as it is-it is everchanging; it has a beginning-it has no beginning; it comes to an end-it is eternal; something is welldone--no it is a wrong doing, a particular act is meritorious - no, it is sinful; this man is religious-no, he is irreligious; there is moksa- there is no moksa; there is hell-there is no hell. Every one says that his view alone is correct but on critical examination this does not seem so. Thus a preliminary attempt (to be followed by a detailed and revised one ) has been made to arrange the Acaranga for easy understandings : comments on it are invited. In this presentation, leaving aside the introductory and concluding paras the main body of the paper neither contains a single word outside of the Acaranga nor does it leave any of its Sutras* unaccommodated. By reason of such a faithful exercise, this article may not be treated as philosophical in the traditional or strict sense of the term, but this unadultered and non-critical summary has been advisedly put up because the omniscient propounders of religion do not frame philosophy--they utter the natural truth; philosophers come next and start grooming and in their anxiety to make it more scientific, substitute logic in place of nature and what we get are intellectual but often ridiculous results. Thus the Acaranga is not a monopoly of any religion-rather, like the Gita, religion flows from it. And it scores on one point that it is a complete code in itself. There is, however, one complaint that the scholarly world has so far neglected its due study and research, and I may be excused of adding the second that they have also neglected to follow it. Doubtless, the Acaranga makes a pleasant reading, but on practicing it alone one realises the true meaning and immensely more the bliss. Numbers of the sutras are as per the text of Acaranga edited by Rev. Jamboo Vijayaji and published by Mahavir Jain Vidyalaya, Bombay 1977. Page #512 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ THE DATE OF KUNDAKUNDACARYA M. A. Dhaky Back in 1935, A. N. Upadhye fixed the date of the illustrious Acarya Padmanandi of the anvaya or monastic order Kondakunda of the Southern Nirgrantha (Digambara) Church at the beginning of the Christian Era.1 The current Digambara Jaina scholarship by and large accepts this date, or perhaps its alternative the third century of Vikrama Era (c. A.D. 146-243) determined by Pt. Kailashchandra Shastri". This is regarded by many as definite, virtually an invarial temporal bracket for Acarya Padmanandi, more widely known by the alias Kondakundacarya (after his anvaya) and still more after the anvaya's Sanskritised form, Kundakundacarya, since late medieval times. A few Western scholars who had an occasion to refer to him, his works, or thinking, in general seem to regard him as an early Jaina philosopher and religious teacher." The contemporary Svetambara Jaina writers,-late Muni Kalyanvijaya, late Pt. Sukhlal Sanghvis, Pt. Dalsukh Malvania", and no less poignantly K. K. Dixit"-on the grounds of the content of his works, were not convinced of such an early date for Kundakundacarya. They felt more secure with fifth, or still better with the sixth. century as the chronal zone, and preferably posterior to Umasvati (c. A. D. 375-400) as well as Siddhasena Divakara (c. active first half of the 5th cent. A. D.)". A re-examination of the various facets of the problem in somewhat deeper depth. for refixing Kundakundacarya's date in light of the potential directions inherent (but hitherto ignored) in the available evidence is therefore in order. In the process, the premises on which the different writers earlier suggested the plausible (but differing) dates for Acarya Kundakunda will also be reviewed and tested vis-avis the known evidence. I shall begin with the review of the external evidence-direct, negative, or inferential. 1. Acarya Padmanandi is not referred to, nor is the influence of his "original" teachings (embodied particularly in his celebrated work, the Samaya-pahuda) anywhere overtly, clearly, or even indirectly implied in the writings of the pre-medieval Digambara Jaina thinkers, epistemologists, and scholiasts like Svami Samantabhadra (active c. A. D. 575-625), Pujyapada Devanandi (active c. A. D. 635-685)10, and Bhatta Akalankadeva (c. A. D. 720-780)11, the trio held in the highest esteem in the Digambara Church.13 The contemporaneous Svetambara Jaina writers of equal stature, -Mallavadi ksamasramana (c. A. D. 525-575)13, Jinabhadra gani ksamasramana (active c. A. D. 550-594), Simhasura ksamasramana (c. latter half of the 7th cent. A. D.), Gandhahasti Siddhasena (c. A. D. 725-770) and Yakintsunu Haribhadra Suri (active c. A. D. 740-785), the latter two authors being aware of the Page #513 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 188 M. A. Dhaky writings of Akalankadeva -(Haribhadra Suri even quoting Samantabhadra in the Anekantajayapat aka and earlier, without naming him, in his Nandi-vrtti, c. A. D. 750 )-are likewise ignorant of the writings and teachings of Kunda kundacarya. 2. The Digambara Jaina author Indranandi in his Srutavatara ( c. late 10 cent. A. D.) tells us about a commentary written by Samanta bhadra on the Tattvarthasutra (Tattvarthadhigama-sastra of Umasvati );14 Pujyapada Devanandi, too, wrote the famous commentary, the Sarvarthasiddhi ( c. 2nd-3rd quarter of the 7th cent. A. D. )15, on the Digambara adoption of the selfsame Tattvarthasutra; and Akal nkadeva wrote his Tattvartha-vartika on the Sarvarthasiddhi and also a commentary Astasati (c. 2nd quarter of the 8th cent. A. D.) on the Aptamimarsa olim Devagama-stotra of Samantabhadra (c. A. D. 600 ). Significantly, none of them chose to comment on any of the highly significant works of Kundakunda carya, for instance his famous and very important Prabhita-traya-the Samaya-pahuda ( Samaya-Prabhita olim Samayasara ), Pavayana-pahuda ( Pravacana-prabhrta olim Pravacanasara ) or Pancatthikaya-sangaha-sutta ( Pancastikaya-samgraha-sutra olim Pancastikayasara),-or for that matter on the Niyama-pahuda ( Niyama-prabhrta olim Niyamasara ), Barasa-anuppkkha ( Dvadasa-anupreksah ). etc. The Digambara sect, since it possessed no agamas, would have avidly sought and commented upon Kundakundacarya's remarkable prakaranas, no less than Samantabhadra's profound dialectical and epistemology-based works. 3. The earliest known commentaries on Kundakundacarya's works are by Amrtacandracarya16 who seem to have flourished, on well reasoned evidence, in late ninth and early tenth century A. D.17 It seems intriguing, even inexplicable, as to why on the works of this justly celebrated and for the past thousand years the most venerated Digambara Jaina philosopher-saint, -supposed by modern Digambara Jaina writers to have flourished at the beginning of the Christian ( now 'Common') Era, -no commentaries were written for eight or nine centuries that may have followed his writings ! 4. To add to this surprise is the complete silence on Kundakundacarya by the Digambara Acarya Jinasena of Punnata-gana in his Harivamsapurana (A.D. 784) where he invokes and pays tribute to Samantabhadra, Siddhasena (Divakara ), and, apart from them, several other pre-medieval Nirgrantha (exclusively Digambara ) writers of eminence. Similarly, Jinasena of Pancastupanvaya, another preeminent Digambara Jaina writer, in the commentary Jayadhavala (completed A. D. 837) on the Kasaya-pahuda-sutta (Kasaya-prabhrta-sutra : c. 2nd-3rd cent. A. D.)18 pays tribute to great Jaina writers beginning with Siddhasena and Samantabhadra but fails to allude to Padmanandi alias Kundakundacarya, True, eulogies have been continually lavished on this great thinker; and a miraculous myth of his possessing magical power of levitation (carana-rddhi ) and his visiting Jina Simandhara in the Mahavideha-ksetra, a mythical land of Nirgrantha cosmography, is duly woven for him, indeed commensurate with his greatness as is understood in the Page #514 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Date of Kundakundacarya 189 sampradaya; but all of these begin to appear only from the tenth century onwards in literature, the inscriptions follow suit somewhat later. It is customary, and rather natural, that the name of a very distinguished pontiff is frequently adopted by monks of the subsequent periods, as for example Siddhasena or Prabhacandra or for that matter Mantunga, Akalanka and Haribhadra. However, in this case, the appelation "Padmanandi" is not repeated till almost a thousand years hence, if we accept first century B. C.--A. D. as his period. In their dating, neither Upadhye nor Pt. Kailashchandra Shastri, or for that matter other prominent Jaina writers, took into account these significant omissions and their consequent implications; this fact leaves vital gaps in their otherwise detailed, if not objectively critical, examination of the problem or evidence either. To a letter sent in regard to some of the puzzling questions a propos of the sectarial relationship between Umasvati and Kundakundacarya by Pt. Sukhlal Sanghvi to the distinguished Digambara Jaina historian Pt. Nathuram Premi, the considered and candid reply he got also contained, by way of a bye-note, the following observation : "My own understanding is that Kundakunda was the founder of a particular idealogical subsect; he sought to shape Jaina religion after the mould of the Vedanta. It appears that, till the time of Jinasena etc., his standpoint had not won universal recognition and so he was not held in regard by these authors."19 Pt. Premi's observation represents one of the two plausible explanations of the phenomenon of "ancient omissions". ( It does not, though, clarify as to why for nine centuries his writings and thoughts, did not meet with approval or recognition. Also, why his unacceptable teachings were not refuted by any scholar; and how it came about that his works continued to be copied-even when disrecognized, for over the long centuries.) The other is that the Kundakundacarya, in reality, may not have flourished at that early date as assumed by some of the noted writers of our time to the august list we must also include late Pt. Jugalkishor Mukhtar. 20 It seems that, as though in unisom, they all had decided not even to think about, not to say of considering and investigating this second possibility. For them the date they determined had been an unassailable truth, a fait accompli, a gospel truth and hence a closed book. However, on prima facie grounds, the whole issue needs a probe deeper than hitherto attempted. 5. No early inscription refers to Kundakundacarya by his monastic appelation Padmanandi : He is though mentioned under his non-Sanskritized alias 'Kondakundacarya', in one Kadamba inscription from Kuppatur (A. D. 1075 ) and in two Santara inscriptions of A. D. 1077 from Humca, all from Karnataka21, these in fact are the earliest to mention him. The earliest mention of the anvaya Kondakunda is encountered in three Rastrakuta inscriptions, all from Gangavadi in lower Karnatadesa, dated in order in the years A. D. 79722, A. D. 80223, and A. D. 80824. Had this anvaya been very ancient, it possibly would have figured in one or the other of the several early Kadamba and Ganga charters granted to the Jaina foundations, Page #515 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 190 M. A. Dhaky sometimes at the instance of, sometimes to, the monks generally in pontifical and abbatial offices during the fourth, fifth and sixth centuries. However, the Mercara copper-plate charter of the year 38825 of an unspecified Era,--taken, though wrongly, Saka, and hence regarded as of A. D. 46726, ---mentions Kondakundanvaya. And this inscription had been one of the corner-stones of the edifice for an early date built for Kundakundacarya by Upadhye27 and some other Jaina writers. Unluckily, the Marcara charter is regarded by epigraphers a forgery of the Rastrakuta period, even though Pt. Kailashchandra Shastri, founding his arguments perhaps on those of one other prominent Digambara Jaina scholar, Gulab Chandra Chaudhari28, is at pains to prove that the plates could represent only the re-issual (and partly a re-engravement) of the earlier charter of A.D. 467, in Rastrakuta times. But the Jaina temple to the pontiff of which the grant was addressed in this charter is Vijaya-Jinalaya of Manyanagara or Manyapura, Manne in Gangavadi, the temple known to have been founded by Vijaya, general of Ganga Marasimha II in c. late eighth century A. D. as shown by Premi !29 The mention, in this charter, of Kondakundanvaya cannot therefore push back that anvaya's antiquity to any century prior to the eighth. Even if it were a genuine charter, the charter's temporal position is the same, namely Rastrakuta, as is the case with the aforenoted three other charters. The anvaya of Kondakunda may have been founded at most a century or so before, though not necessarily by, or after, the name of Padmanandi Kundakundacarya as some Jaina authors believe as proven.30 6. Jayasena (e. earlier half of the 12th cent. A. D.), the commentator next in time to Amstacandracarya on the famous Prabhrta-traya of Kondakundacarya, has recorded two succinct but valuable historical facts concerning the author Padmanandi, the one as regards the name of his preceptor,-Kumaranandi Siddhantadeva,-and the second about the contemporary king, Sivakumara. As for Kumaranandi, Upadhye made a good search through inscriptional as well as literary sources and noticed three pontiffs bearing the selfsame appelation, but all belonging to different ages and differing ganas ( monastic clans ). Kumaranandi of Mathura inscription of the year K.S. 87 (c. A.D. 165, or A.D, 192. or A.D. 215, or A. D. 230)31 belongs to the Uccairnagara-sakha of Northern (afterwards emerging as Svetambara) tradition; hence he is out of question. The next available Kumaranandi, whom Upadhye, notices, figures as a grand-preceptor of the recipient of a copper-plate charter dated S. 698/A.D. 776 issued by the chieftain Jasahitadeva of Nirgund dynasty in Karnata. But this Kumaranandi belonged to the Pulikalgaccha of Eregittur-gana inside Srimula-Mula-gana of the Nandi Samgha (Yapaniya), and not to the Digambara Church ! (Also, from Upadhye's standpoint he is a much younger pontiff than what his own perception of Kundakundacarya's and hence his preceptor's date would warrant.) The third Kumaranandi spotted by Upadhye figures in the Patrapariksa of Vidyananda (c. first half of the 9th cent. A. D.)32. Vidyananda, reports Upadhye, quotes some three verses of Kumaranandi Bhattaraka; Page #516 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Date of Kundakundacarya 191 but Vidyananda says nothing about Kumaranandi's anvaya or gana, though he might have been the one we are looking for, but cannot immediately be sure about since no other evidentiary details are there to go by. What we need is a Kumaranandi who must belong to the anvaya Kondakunda. Luckily, there was one such Kumaranandi. However, Upadhye, even in his Pravacanasara's revised edition of 1964, misses him, just as did Pt. Kailashchandra Shastri in his publication of 1974. This Kumaranandi of Kondakundavnaya figures in a charter granted by the Rastrakuta governor of Gangavadi, Prince Ranavaloka Kambharaja, in S. 730/A.D. 808 from Badanaguppe, the charter noticed as far back as 1927.33 In that charter, for Vardhamanaguru, who received the bequest of the village Badanaguppe, the following preceptorial lineage is given : Kumaranandi Siddhantadeva Elavacarya Vardhamana-guru (A. D. 808) The gana to which these pontiffs belonged is mentioned as "Sirmulage-guru", a denomination perhaps taken after an earlier pontiff of this line within the Kondakundanvaya.34 (It is likely, as hinted in earlier context, that the Kumaranandi with the title "Bhattaraka" mentioned in the inscription is indentical with his namesake (bearing the same hierarchical status) whose verses were cited by Vidyananda.) : Kumaranandi thus located within the Kondakundanvaya, the next question relates to finding his disciple Padmanandi. What we find in the charter of A. D. 808, however, is the appelation "Elavacarya", seemingly a Kannada (local ? dialectical ?) variant of Elacarya. "Elacarya" is a status-cognomen in the hierarchy of the Digambara Jaina Church for a pontiff of the highest learning and for a qualified teacher of Jaina doctrines, a position more or less equivalent of vacaka, vacanacarya, or ksamasramana or mahattara in the ancient Northern Nirgrantha of which Svetambara Jaina Church is the off-shoot. Once a pontiff received the ecclesiastical title elacarya his original monastic appelation apparently went into the background. For example, Svami Virasena in the encomium of his monumental commentary, the Dhavala (completed A. D. 816), on the Satkhand agama of Puspadanta and Bhutabali (c. late 5th - early 6th cent. A. D.)35, refers to his teacher Elacarya of Citrakuta but does not mention his personal monastic name. Likewise, the Kudalur grant of Ganga Marasiinha II, dated S. 884/A. D. 962, mentions the grantee as Elacarya of Surasta-gana without mentioning his original monastic appelation.36 But is there any evidence that Padmanandi had an elacarya status? Considering his attainment of an unequalled spiritual plane within the fold of Nirgrantha way of life, his prestige as a mystic and a saint, and his competence in the highly original exposition and interpretation of some of the Nirgrantha doctrines, not to say of his profound conversance with the traditional Jaina dogmas inspite Page #517 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ -- -- 192 M. A. Dhaky of his orientations to mysticism, small wonder if his contemporaries in his spiritual lineage elevated him to the most honorable position, of "Elacarya", in the ecclesiastical hierarchy of the Digambara Church. In point of fact, the Vijayanagar lamppillar inscription of S. 1307/A. D. 1386, which enumerates five distinct appelations for our Padmanandi, includes both Kundakunda and Elacarya. The Nandi Samgha gurvavali (c. A. D. 14th cent.) likewise mentions the elacarya status-cognomen of Kundakundacarya.37 True, these latter two sources are rather late; but they possibly were so recording on the basis of the then current written or oral tradition. Because Cakravarti nayanar (earlier in his introduction to the Pancastikaya of Kundakundacarya38) had taken Kundakundacarya as a pontiff of the 1st cent. B. C.A.D., (and also had equated him with the particular ancient "Elacarya" who is traditionally held as the author of the ancient Tamil classic Tirukkural), he was looked upon as an early pontiff of the Southern Church. Indeed, considerable discussion ensued on this point which led to no conclusion since the foundational premise was per se wrong; it only served to confuse the issue ! While conceding with Upadhye and other Jaina writers that the two other epithets mentioned in the aforementioned Vijayanagar inscription, namely Vakragrivacarya and Grddhapicchacarya, did not in fact apply to Kundakundacarya. there is nothing against taking Elacarya as his genuine epithet and thus equating him with the Elavacarya the disciple of Kumaranandi Siddhantadeva of the anvaya Kondakunda. This point cleared, the next point having a bearing on the issue is the search for the king "Sivakumara" for whom Acarya Padmanandi, according to Jayasena, is said to have written the Pravacana-sara39. Earlier, K. B. Pathak had suggested that this king could be the Kadamba monarch Sivamrgesavarma;40 and, for Cakravati nayanar, he was the early Pallava king Sivaskandasvami (Skandavarma I) since both authors had assumed Kundakundacarya as a very early writer and hence both, in pursuance of their own line of thinking, were looking for him in the early centuries in South India, indeed a wrong temporal area ! In any case, Upadhye had not rejected the possibility of Kundakundacarya being contemporary to Sivaskandavarma, without however, proceeding to investigate the date of that monarch. This, as shown by T. V. Mahalingam, is c. A. D. 345-35542 and not c. first century B. C.-A. C. which is envisaged by Upadhye for Kundakundacarya who is supposed to be contemporary of Sivaskandavarma! The foregoing discussion rather compels us to expect the king in question somewhere in the later part of the eighth century A. D. within the geographical, politcal and cultural ambit of Karnataka proper. Verily, there is no king with the name Sivakumara known to have flourished at that time.42 However, I seem to perceive that there could be a slight error, scribal or a deliberate emendation done at some later point, in the orthography of the name as it has come down to us through Jayasena's notice. For exactly at that time we meet the Ganga ruler Sivamara II (c. last quarter of the 8th cent. A. D.) in Gangavadi, a part of south-eastern Karnataka. It is for him, the luckless monarch who had to spend several years in Rastrakuta prison, that Kundakundacarya may have written Page #518 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 193 The Date of Kundakundacarya his Pravacana-prabhrta ! Kundakundacarya's writings, on this showing, seem to belong to the last quarter of the eighth century A. D. though the third quarter of the selfsame century he may have spent in studies and preparation. Upadhye, as did other serious writers, had accepted the testimony of Jayasena --which arguably is more trustworthy than the medieval inscriptions or the hagiological lists of the Digambara Church, 43 all of which are of much later date and, like the Svetambara medieval lists of succession, undependable when they talk about pontiffs that flourished earlier than the founders of the sub-orders to which they primarily pertained. 44 Once we accept these equations, we concede to the clarification they provide on the principal puzzling point, the date for Kundakundacarya-it can only be latter half of the 8th cent. A. D.- the other enigmas are, by the logic of this new dating, resolved. This is why we find for long no influence or impact of Kundakunda's new doctrines and his fresh interpretations of ancient doctrines and their terminology and, as a result, of the earlier Jaina positions; which is also why no earlier commentaries on, or genuine and undoubted quotations from this celebrated saint's great works are available. For these just could not have existed since he is not a very ancient sage and hence his works could not have been known at least till some time after Akalankadeva.45 7. P. B. Desai identifies the place "Kondakunda" with Konakondala (Kondakunde in a medieval inscription) situated in Sindavadi a territorial division of ancient upper Karnatadesa but presently within the Anantapur District of Andhra Pradesh. The site, according to Desai, is located four miles south of Guntakal.47 Desai cites some Jaina sculptures and epigraphs at that site in support of his identification. For example, on the hillock Rasasiddhula-gutta, which stands about two furlongs to the village, there exists an image, carved on the rock-face, of a Jina standing on a lotus. (He does not mention the plausible date of the sculpture.) Also, in a nearby structural shrine, are two images of standing Jina with triple umbrellas (dateable to c. 13th cent. A.D.), today worshipped by local populace as"Rasasiddhas". There is also a fragmentary inscription (possibly commemorative) in the 7th century characters referring to some Jaina saint ".. adored by Singhanandi". 47 A tenth century inscription here refers to a nisidhi (memorial column) of Nagasenacarya. An inscription on the nearby Kailasappagutta hillock refers to CattaJinalaya founded by lady Nakabbe "in Kondakundeyatirtha" to which a grant was made by Mahamandalesvara Joyimayyarasa, governor of Sindavadi, in A. D. 1081. in the reign of the Calukya sovereign Vikramaditya VI. In a damaged inscription in the village, c. early 12th century and of the time of Vikramaditya VI, the name of Padmanandi Bhattaraka is said to figure twice. There is also a reference in that inscription to the caranas (sages Indowed with power of levitation) and also, according to Desai, to the Kondakundanvaya. The inscription pertains to Nayak Irtideva Saiddhantika-cakravarti. However, a recent re-examination of the selfsame inscrip Page #519 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 194 M. A. Dhaky 49 tion by A. V. Narasimhamurti has revealed that "it does not contain even the word Kundakunda."45 Desai erroneously had thought that Padmanandi here referred is the illustrious Kundakundacarya of Kondakundanvaya. This Padmanandi may have been a medieval preceptor, either a direct guru or the one who flourished at most a couple of generations before Nayakirti. The appelation Padmanandi is not uncommon in the medieval Digambara Church and Kondakundanvaya by then was claimed by the Mula Samgha as well as the Deslya-gana also. Moreover, the term carana in the inscription figures in plural and hence cannot "singly" pertain to Padmanandi (in whom too the legend invests the power of levitation). The inscription simply purports to say that this Kondakundeya-tirtha was visited by the (mythical) carana-sages. For instance the hill at Ellora, where the Jaina caves were excavated in the Rastrakuta period (9th cent. A. D.), was known as 'Caranadri', meaning thereby that the caranas frequented that sacred hill. The only fact which is certain from this inscription is that the hills nearby the village formed the "Kondakundeya-tirtha" in the medieval period. (And it might just be a 'sthapana-tirtha' or 'avatara-tirtha' established after the original sacred hill.) Recently, P. N. Narasimha Murthy has suggested on an inscriptional basis and on account of the presence of Jaina sculptures and rock-cut caves in the surroundings, that Kundadri (-Kondakunda, Dravidian konda being Sanskrit adri, hill) in Tulunadu (Kanara District, Karnataka) could be the original Kondakunda.51 A third possibility, which I presently would suggest, is the Gopinatha hill near Nandi in southern Karnataka, whence a fragmentary commemorative inscription engraved on the rock of which only the opening part in Sanskrit remaining and dateable to c. mid eighth century, refers to the existence, on the site, of the temple of Jina Parsvanatha and calls the hill "Kunda...... 9752 (probably Kunda-giri, Kundaparvata or Kundadri ). In view of the fact that this "Kunda" hill (Konda-Kunda) is situated in Gangavadi, and all the earliest inscriptions pertaining Kondakundanvaya also hail from Gangavadi, relating as they do to Manyapura (Manne), Talavanapura (Talakad), Vadanoguppe (Badanaguppe ),-towns all within the territory of Gangavadi-it is more likely that this Gopinatha hill-ancient Kunda (parvata, Konda-Kunda )-probably was the place after which the anvaya KondaKunda took its denomination. However, what is at issue is not the identity of the site, but its antiquity. If Padmanandi-Kondakundacarya flourished in the early centuries of Christian Era, Kondakunda-be it in Sindavadi or be it in Tulunadu or in Gangavadi-must reveal early archaeological associations with the site. In point of fact, and so far, no Jaina antiquities (nor even early literary or epigraphical notices) of consequence which can unequivocally be dated (or related to an age) prior to the latter half of the fourth century A. D., have been noticed within the territorial boundries of the entire ancient Karnataka! I doubt whether any one of the three Kondakunda-s could historically be earlier than the seventh or at most sixth century A. D. At Page #520 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Date of Kundakundacarya 195 least nothing so far has been reported for these sites which can confidently be placed before the second half of the first millenium3. Projected against this perspective of historical reality, Kondakundanvaya cannot be anterior to the pre-medieval times. The verdict of the external evidence is clear enough. It does not favour a date anterior to the latter half of the eighth century for Padmanandi-Kundakundacarya. The position as regards the internal evidence may now be examined and assessed. To begin with, Kundakundacarya gives no information either about himself, his spiritual lineage, or the date of composition of any of his works: And among the works attributed to him, only in two cases is there some evidence as to the authorship. Even if this evidence is not very direct, it is sufficiently indicative and dependable. His general style (barring the more ancient verse-quotations which he assuredly incorporates in his writings, and the plausible as well as probable interpolated verses) and his thought patterns are sufficiently distinguished, even singular, to stipulate his authorship of all those works. The evidence, then, from the content of his undoubted works (there is some doubt about his authorship for the Asta-prabhrtas) can also be significant on the main problem of date. 1. In the Linga-pahuda ( Linga-prabrta ),- one from among the Asta-prabhrtas traditionally ascribed to Kundakundacarya-the author thunders against the laxities. that had crept in the (Southern) Jaina Church. Among the deeds or doings which violently go against the Jaina monastic code is the one relating to practicing agriculture by monks or friars. There apparently is no evidence of the Nirgrantha monks. resorting to agriculture, indeed anywhere in India, until after some point within the sixth century A. D. And this was in Karnataka to be precise. All earliest royal charters granted to the Jaina Fraternity relate to "Samgha" and "Jinalaya", the pontiffs and monks are not in the picture excepting that their consent in the matter was sometimes sought or obtained. The situation next had changed and it is the abbots (both of the Yapantya as well as of the Digambara Church) who now had started receiving land-grants directly from the ruling royalty and provincial military governors-which henceforth will become a regular feature. The situation of the Svetambara Church in the North was no better, though there is as yet no evidence that the grants were issued in abbot's name even until the medieval times. The deca dence of Jaina monastic order was universal, the contemporaneous caityavasi Svetambara was not exception! The combined archaeological and literary testimony for this practice in Karnataka unambiguously would point to a date anytime after the sixth century for Kundakundacarya if the Linga-prabhrta is his work. 2. Indranandi credits Padmanandi-Kondakundacarya to have written a commentary-Parikarma-on the Satkhandagama of Puspadanta and Bhutabali. As I elsewhere have demonstrated, the Satkhandagama cannot be dated between A. D. 87 and 12 as late Pt. Hiralal Jain, its distinguished editor, had claimed. The plausible date for that work is c. early sixth or at most late fifth century A. D. even when its small part-some gathas and phrases etc., seemingly are of a somewhat Page #521 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 196 M. A. Dhaky remoter antiquity, say second or third century A. D. in terms of language, style, mannerism and content.56 This period-position for the Satkhandagama would entail Kundakundacarya to be posterior to early sixth century A. D., providing he really wrote such a commentary.57 3. The compilation Mulacara of Vattakera, a Yapaniya work wrongly ascribed to Kundakundacarya by some recent Jaina writers on account of some late and misleading colophons58, seemingly was known to Kundakundacarya. Because the Mulacara embodies about four gathas from the Sanmati-prakarana of Siddhasena Divakara (t. 5th cent. A. D) as also several which are paralleled in the Avasyakaniryukti and some noticeable in the Acararga-niryukti, the Ogha-niryukti, and in the Pinda-niryukti as well, -- these four being the Svetambara agamic glosses of the early sixth century A. D.59,--the Mulacara at the earliest can be dated only to the sixth century.60 The Mulacara has one of its verses regarding the samayika, pratikramana, and cognate self-purification rites, which eulogise these as "amrta-kumbha" (nectorjar). Kundakundacarya, from his sophistic standpoint, creates a counter verse calling the above-noted rites as visa-kumbha ( poison pitcher) !61 So Kundakundacarya is posterior to Vattakera's Mulacara and hence flourished any time posterior to the middle of the sixth century A. D. Indeed, Kundakundacarya is not, as some Digambara Jaina writers earlier and on a different basis had argued, the author of the Mulacara, although a few verses do commonly figure inside his works and particularly the Samayasar adhikara of the Mulacara, the latter reasonably could have been interpolated after the work was admitted in the Digambara scriptural fold. 4. Upadhye, after the linguistic analysis of Kundakundacarya's available works ( with a strong focus on the Pravacanasara ), has concluded that the language employed by the author is Ardhamagadhi ( of the Svetambara agamas ) and Jaina Saurasent. Now, Sauraseni is the language of the Yapaniya agamas as well as of the "secondary", "substitute", "surrogate" or "isoagamic" texts of the Digambara Church -- which in point of fact is the mainstay62 of Kundakundacarya's Prabhrtatraya. Also the influence of Jaina Maharastri ( the language to some extent employed in the Svetambara niryuktis, bhas yas, and prakaranas ) and even Apabhramsa ( racest found only in the Asta-prabhrtas ). is in evidence in his, waitings. What .conclusion can be drawn from this miscellany? How do we explain this phenomenon ? First of all, before beginning his linguistic analysis, Upadhye did not isolate the "quotes" of earlier agamic works of the Ardhamagadhi canon ( acknowledged by Svetambara and Yapaniya ) from the author's own verses, although he is aware that such are certainly there63. Most of such "quoted" verses are paralleled in the Svetambara prakirnakas, a few in the niryuktis (and in the bhasyas as well ), and some decidedly from works now lost 64, the earliest of which are dateable to a period between the 4th and the 6th century A. D. Pt, Malvania, for instance, has shown that a verse in Jaina Maharastri from the Mahapratyakhyana which occurs also in the Devendrastava, both being the prakirnaka works ( c. 3rd 4th cent. A. D. ) of Page #522 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Date of Kundakundacarya the Svetambara canon,-and a parallel verse in the Paumacariya of Vimala Suri of Nagendra kula (e. A. D. 478 ) also figures in Kundakundacarya's Pravacanasara". The Svetambara agamas and agamic works are of course completely ignorant of Kundakundacarya's works; it is then clear that Kundakundacarya borrowed the selfsame verse and several others either through some Yapanfya intermediary or perhaps in a few cases directly. (Unfortunately, nobody has attempted to pursue the line of research Pt. Malvania had opened). Therefore, the results of the linguistic analysis without the proper sifting of data in Kundakundacarya's works, can be misleading and now so proven, possesses little determinative value for the pontiff's date. At any rate, a few relatively early-seeming (quoted) verses in Kundakundacarya's works at best compare with the third period (approximately late Kusana and post-Kusana). Svetambara agamas and agamie works. From the standpoint of language, even when some earlier word-forms and phraseology occasionally are discernible in Kundakundacarya's works, this factor has to be thoroughly tested against other. evidence. My own experience is that the later talented Jaina writers sometimes. emulated (or unconsciously picked up) relatively earlier Prakrta of the cononical brand, since they were well-versed and much too familiar with that kind of traditional writing. For instance, some of Haribhadra Suri's works, or parts thereof, from language standpoint, do possess an early look, as to some extent also does the imposter Mahanikithasutra (c, 8th cent. A. D. ). Where Kundakundacarya's real period revealed is the later Prakrta Aryas which he consistently uses, often the more modern style in composition he adopts, and the typical formal cadence he builds. Also the inaugural mangala verses of his famous works are in a form, style, phraseology, predilections metwith and mood noticeable only from the seventh eentury. onward. These factors, viewed alongside his highly advanced thought-constructs, fresh concepts, new epistemological positions, novel approaches to and new interpretations, as well as fresh application of old knowledge, and the concomitant or relevant terminological jargon (which oftener is far ahead of the canonical literature ), clearly indicate that he cannot be an early author, as has been persistently, even obstinately, claimed to be."" 5. Keeping those latter facts and criteria (mentioned in Haribhadra Suri's case) in view in the analysis of Kundakundacarya's works, the period-perspective that takes shape considerably differs from what Upadhye and other proponents taking his line and following his intent had conjunctured, even conjured up. 197 Kundakundacarya's style of writing, excepting where he adopts the traditional mould or has Ardhamagadhr (and Saurasen?) quotes, is in effect far advanced compared to any exhibited in the available early nirgrantha writings in Ardhamagadhi and other Prakrrtas. His own verses in his works show powerful articulations and strong directness and acuity combined with subtleties, precision and mystical power but reflect no archaisms nor is there any resort to cleverness, puns, deliberate Page #523 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ M. A. Dhaky obscurities, varbal conceits or virtuousity. The style, though dry, is dynamic, direct and lucid. Some of these qualities are already in evidence in the Sanmati-prakarana of Siddhasena (c. 5th cent. A.D.) as well as in the Mulacara of Vattakera (c. late 6th cent. A. D.). In fact, strong conceptual (sometimes even verbal) parallelisms between Kundakundacarya's Samaya-prabhrta on the one hand and Siddhasena's Sanmati-prakarana on the other, do exist as has been demonstrated by Pt. Sukhlal Sanghvi 198 6. This is further supported by several elements present in his thinking. However, this being a sizeable subject in itself, I am discussing it in a separate follow up paper. A few salient points to which I would here succinctly hint, but without citing references and without entering into detailed discussion, are as follows: a) Kundakundacarya had massively leaned toward the niscaya-naya or absolutistic standpoint in his Samaya-prabhrta. This naya, but not its profound implications, was known before, but on its application was not done to the scale. and extent by Siddhasena Divakara or even Mallavadi. (b) On the basis of the niscayanaya, Kundakundacarya, in theory, views atman or Self as separate from and independent of the association of pudgala or matter as was done in the Samkhya and the Vedanta systems with the difference that atman is not looked upon as totally inactive; Self does possess the faculty of knowing, intellecting and creating as well as feeling emotive impluses within. Self is thus not a doer of deeds (karta) and enjoyer of fruits (bhokta), although, from the standpoint of external and practical relatings (vyavara-naya), he may be regarded as a doer and enjoyer because of his emotional involvement which leads to, or colours, his conscious thinking that way, this in fact being his habit to so orient since countless ages and for endless births. Now, the ancient Jaina doctrine of atman as the karta and bhokta has never been interpreted or understood that way by any Jaina scholiast till the pre-medieval times, and that too not before the Kundakundacarya's doctrine was widely known. The unliberated Self, in Kundakundacarya's concept, thus is always pure and not contaminated by karma-raja as was otherwise believed till late, even in the Digambara sect. The apparent contamination with karma, and its consequent and subsequent fruition are due to the bhava or inner consciously felt or willed emotional directives of the Self. It is thus illusory. The Self goes on wandering from birth to birth because he has not known what it really is and this is what keeps it in apparent bondage. The new Vedanta doctrine about atman was already known at least 50 years before Sankaracarya (c. A.D. 780-812), through the karikas of his grand preceptor Gaudapada. May be, Kundakundacarya has seen these and adopted the Vedantic way of looking.at Self, but in a modified way. c) As its corolary as though, Kundakunda Page #524 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Date of Kundakundacarya 199 carya completely redefines the terms svasamaya and parasamaya, the terms which for long had been understood as the 'doctrine of one's own sect' and 'the doctrine of the other's sect'. According to Kundakundacarya, svasamaya is the one whichrelates to atman, the parasamaya meant anything outside atman including one's body. This is an absolutely different way of looking at the connotation of the terms, indeed not referred to by even Southern Jaina writers. (d) Between the two categories of subha (auspicious and desirable) and asubha (inauspicious and undesirable ), he creates a third category, suddha (pure) which really is the true and intrinsic disposition of the atman or Self. This conceptual improvement is earlier unknown. (e) Kundakundacarya is fully aware of the terms syadvada and saptabhangi both of which are unknown in the works of Umasvati as well as of Siddhasena, but known to Samantabhadra (c. A.D. 550-625). It was Samantabhadra who for the first time uses these terms and formulates a doctrine based on them. (f) Likewise, the original Upanisadic classification of antaratma (inner Self), bahya or bahiratma (outer self; outer body) and paramatma ( Absolute Self) is mentioned by Kundakundacarya with some difference in detail and hence of implications. Already, Pujayapada Devanandi (C. A.D. 635680 ) had adopted these terms, though before him it is totally unkown in Jaina writings. Kundakundacarya possibly took these terms and their conceptuality from Devanandi. There are, in point of fact, several other major and minor points of significance which would not have been in the writings of Kundakundacarya if he were to flourish in the 1st century B. C.-A. D. His style of writing and phraseology then would have been archaic, the jargon as well as as the concepts and their presentation would have been far less advanced thap is apparent in his writings.

The Mulacara, being a compilation, later had received additions. Once it passed in the hands of the Diga mbara sect, at some stage, verses typical of the new doctrines or those that signified new interpretations from Kundakundacarya's works seemirgly were also added to it. They look quite incongruent with and offer sharp contrast in terms of style and content.) 61. These verses figure in the Samaya-prabhrta. 6). The main Praksta adopted in Kundakundacarya's work is for certain the Jaina Saurasent. The meters prefered are the late Arya of the classical and postclassical period and, to a small extent Anustubh. 63. Upadhye, however, ascribes this to the period when the agamas were the common property of the Svetambaras as well as the Digambaras. I must confess I cannot agree with this suggestion. The separation, without declaration between, and without even the knowledge of the Northern and the Southern Nirgrantha (Digambara). had occurred long before Kundakundacarya and on account more of geographical distance and factors of history than due to any conscious and overt disagreements in the earlier stages. There is no evidence at all inside the genuine Digambara works on the rejection of the agamas shaped by the Northern Nirgranthas in Pataliputra (c. B. C. 300). ( That is a deliberately concocted and propagated modern Digambara Jaina myth to which many trusting minds, including some German Jainologists, succumbed.) The Digambara had lost the agamas (and these must be their very early version and in terms of number they must be very restricted at that early date, showing undeveloped doctrines, dogmas and philosophy; and this happened due entirely to their remote surroundings, their location in extreme south. It seems more correct to think that Kundakundacarya got some of the agamic verses possibly from the Yapaniya and plausibly a few directly from the Svetambara sources. And this could be only after the YapanTyas were well settled in Karnata, that is to say, in or after the 5th-6th century A. D. In point of fact, some of the Kundakundacarya's verses which are traced in the nir fuktis, prakirnakas and similar sources are indeed not very ancient and could by style and content only be dated to the late Kusana, Gupta and post-Gupta periods. (There are small variations in readings between these and Kundakundacarya's versions. ) 64. The Svetambara curni commentaries (7th cent. A. D.) often cite from aga mic works now not traceable.

Page #532 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ THE SOURCES OF VADIBHASIMHA'S GADYA-CINTAMANI : A FRESH ENQUIRY N. M. Kansara Jivandhara, also known as Jivaka, is regarded as a Jaina historical personage, a king, counted among the followers of the 22nd Tirthankara Nemil, and contemporary of the 24th Tirthankara Mahavira and his disciple Sudharma. He is celebrated as the 23rd Kamadeva? along with the sixty-three divine personages (salaka-purusas) in Jainism. Excepting the passing enumerative reference to the name 'Jivaga', there is hardly any reference to Jaina Canonical works to this hero of the several poetic works of medieval period, in Sanskrit, Prakrit, Apabhramsa, Kannada and Tamil. So far, among the available texts, Gunabhadra's Jivandhara-carita', comprising a part of the 75th parva of his Trisasti-laksana-mahapurana-samgraha, popularly known as the Uttara-purana, is the oldest one. Gunabhadra's work is in turn a latter part of Jinasena's Maha-purana. Jinasena was a contemporary of the kings Jagattunga and Nrpatunga Amoghavarsa ( A. D. 815-877) of the Rastrakuta dynasty, with their capital at Manyakheta ( malkhed )'. His disciple Gunabhadra completed his Mahapurana posthumously, some years before A. D. 897.5 Later on the story was adopted almost in toto by the great Apabhraisa poet Puspadanta in his Mahapurana ( A.D. 965) in the 99th pariccheda, also called sandhi.6 As has been the case with most of the folk literature in India and abroad, the strings of names and skeletons of the stories were current among bards and chroniclers, preserved from ancient times in oral tradition, and were at times strung together in anthologies of folktales, as in the case of Gunadhya's Brhatkatha. The Jaina monks, too, preserved numerous such stories and further enriched them with details from their wider studies and elaborately narrated them for the occasion, as in the case of Haribhadrasuri who developed a grand campu, the Samaraiccakaha, just from a string of names. Many of the tales included in the Mahapurana of JinasenaGunabhadra must have grown like that.? The impetus for giving a definite shape to the Jaina religious tales in the form of a mahaparana seems to have been provided by a similar activity in the preceding centuries during the Gupta period of the Indian History, which saw the renovation of the Vedic-Brahmanical Purana tradition. So far we know only a few sources used by Jinasena and Gunabhadra. But possibly their main source was the Vagartha-sangraha of Kavi Paramesvara which as yet has not come to light; on a few quotations therefrom have been traced. It is not unlikely that Gunabhadra had some sources other than those in Sanskrit, either in Prakrit, or in the Dravidian languages before him; that alone may explain a proper name like 'Prasasta-varka' (UP. LXXV, 698) which is a Hybrid Sanskitisation of 'Prasasta-vakya' or 'Prasasta-vaktra'.9 Page #533 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ N. M. Kansara Jinasena seems to have kaowa the Brhat-katha of Gunadhya in its original, since he specifically refers to it with words with ingenious double entendre in quite complimentary terms.10 It is quite plausible that Jinasena as well as Gunabhadra may have used Gunadhya's or some other work of that pattern like the Vasudevahindi, which seems to have been known to some Tamil authors as well.11 Of the Brhatkatha there is a Tamil adaptation, Perungadai by Konguvel, with Udayana as its hero. Konguvel is held to have flourished sometime between the fifth and the eighth centuries A.D.1 R. Narasimhachariar has brought to light the fact that the Ganga king Durvinita (c. A. D. 560-610) composed a Sanskrit version of the Brhatkatha.13 Side by side with the literary works on Jivandhara, there were being composed in the South, Kavyas about some other religious heroes like Varanga, Yasodhara Karakandu and others in Sanskrit, Prakrit, Kannada and Tamil.14 The pattern of the story of JIvandhara to some extent resembles to the outline of the story of Naravahanadatta in Gunadhya's Brhatkatha, as preserved in the medieval Sanskrit compendia of the work, such as Brhat-katha-bloka sangraha, the Brhat-katha-manjart and the Katha-saritsagara. The fact that Jinasena was induced to claim for his Mahaparana a status on par with that of Gunadhya's Brhat-katha,10 testifies to the fact that the Jaina authors were quite fascinated by the work, and they were inclined to cast the stories of their own celebrated heroes so as to conform to the pattern in Ganadhya's work in a bid to gain comparable popularity for them with masses in general or at least with the Jaina society in particular. And Gunabhadra seems to have drawn on such folklore for the elaboration of the stories of the celebrated heroes like JIvandhara and others. The story of Jivandhara in the UP is in the form of a sub-story, narrated by Ganadhara Sudharma in response to the enquiry by King Srenika who is said to have got curious when he saw JIvandhara Muni poised in meditation under an Asoka tree. The various incidents of this tale are connected together only insofar as they relate to the life of Jivandhara. As is natural in work like a Purana, no attempt has been made here to give a particularly refined literary form to the narrative, which, though straight forward, covers about 409 verses (i.e. from vs. 183 to vs. 691) couched in the Anustubh metre, except the three concluding ones of the Parva. The purpose expressed here is to illustrate the unexpected turns of events due to good or bad luck, the ups and downs in human life, and the unfailing consequences of one's good and bad deeds,16 Likewise, in the treatment of all the tales and of the story of Jivandhara in his Tisatthi-mahap risa-gunalamkara, i.e. the Apabhramsa Mahapurana (MP) Puspadanta, too, closely follows the text of the MP in Sanskrit by Jinasena-Gunabhadra, who it appears, represent the Digambara Jaina tradition; the only difference is that the narrative is divided into 20 kadavakas. The work is dedicated to Bharata, the minister of Krsna III (A.D. 939-968) of the Rastrakut dynasty.18 P. L. Vaidya accepts Page #534 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Sources of Vadibhasimha's Gadya-cintamani A.D. 959 as the Siddhartha year in which Puspadanta commenced his MP, and A.D. 965 as the year in which he completed it.19 The story of Jivandhara as found in the Tamil Srivartamanarpuranam, a part of the Sripuranam,20 is in effect the same as that of the MP, since Sripuranam (SP) is a Tamil rendering of the Sanskrit Mahapurana of Jinasena-Gunabhadra 21 The literary treatment of the story of Jyvandhara seems to have started with the Civakacintamani of Tittakkatevar in Tamil ( A. D. 908-950),22 followed by the Gadyacintamani and the Ksatracudamani of Vadibhasimha(A.D. 1027), and the Jivandharacampu of Haricandra in Sanskrit (sometime between A.D. 1075 and 1175). The date of Tiruttakkatevar accepted here is in accordance with the discussion of the same by A. N. Upadhye and H. Jain,23 and by T. E. Gnanamurthy.24 The date of Vadibhasimhasuri referred to here is as decided by Upadhye and Jain.25 It may be observed in saising here that the date proposed for Vadabhasimha, namely the period between the last decades of the eighth and the former half of the ninth centuries A.D., by Pandit Pannalal Jain in the light of the discussion of the problem posited by Pandit Darabarila12e is not conclusive, since the evidence adduced only proves that Vadibhasimha was posterior to Bana and Akalanka and that way determines at most the upper limit of the author. The Jivandharacampu of Haricandra is a summary of the story as related by Vadibhasimha in his two works mentioned above; without the latter it would not be very easy to follow the story in all the details in Haricandra's narrative. 27 In view of the above-noted chronology of the literary works treating the story of Jivandhara, it becomes clear that they have drawn their inspiration from the folklore, preserved later in the Sanskrit Mahapurana of Jinasena-Gunabhadra. The controversy regarding the sources of the Gadyacintamani is based on the decision on the question of the mutual relationship of Vadibhasisha's works vis-avis that of Tiruttakkatevar. Kuppuswami Sastri and U. V. Swaminatha Aiyar compared the story of the Ksatracudamani (KC) with those in the Gadyacintamani (GC) the Civakacintamani (CC) pronounced in Tamil as Sivakasintamani and in the Jivandharacampu (JC), and drew the conclusion that the GC was the source of the rest of them.28 On the other hand, Upadhye and Jain, who have examined the problem afresh, have arrived at the contrary conclusion that the CC was the source of the rest of them.29 Pt. K. Bhujabali Shastry, Pt. Darabarilal Kotia and Pt. Pannalal Jain have touched the problem in their respective works. T. E. Gnanamurthy has discussed the problem in connection with inquiry into the sources of the CC.30 Out of the four classics listed above, the KC is quite different in point of genre from the rest of them. It narrates the story in 747 Anustubh verses divided into eleven Lambakas. Although a sort of an epic, it is a unique piece of literature in that almost every latter half of each of its verses moralises the event narrated in the former half of it, and the story serves as a mere peg for hanging the didactic Page #535 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ N. M. Kansara element. The purpose specified here is to summarise the story of Jivandhara, 31 of course as told by him in his GC; but the unspecified task accomplished is that it is a veritable mine of pithy proverbs and sayings, calculated to bring out the moral significance of each of the incidents as well as of the whole of the story in the light of the Jainistic ideal of human existence. Naturally, the story narrated here is identical with that done in detail in the GC. Now, a couple of questions arise : why should Vadibhasimha compose two works, namely the GC and the KC, based on the same story? And, why should he name the one as Gadyacintamani and the other as Ksatracudamani ? The questions are interrelated, and so are the answers to them, since they entail an analysis of the contemporary literary environment prevalent during the age of Vadibhasimhasuri, who undoubtedly is a South Indian writer, a thorough scholar, and expectedly hence conversant with the Sanskrit as well as the Tamil classics of his days. Tha title 'Gadya-cintamani' is ostensibly unusual, almost unique in the whole range of Sanskrit literature, as it ignores the subject proper of the work, namely the story of Jyvandhara, and projects the literary form of the work as a prose romance par excellence. It presupposes the author's fascination for some Cintamani, works most probably composed in metrical form with which he seems to have wanted his work to be compared in point of literary excellence. Upadhye and Jain have drawn attention to this point in the following manner : "The title Jivaka-ctntamani' has a regular significance, and the name Gadya-cintamani can be understood clearly only by presupposing Jivaka-cintamani. The Jivaka-cintamani or Civakacinta-mani (i. e. Sivakasintamani ), is in verse, and the term Cintamani is appropriate in its title in apposition to the proper name Jivaka."32 This guess seems confirmed when we look to the historical background. As has been brought out succinctly by Gnanamurthy, 33 the Cilapattikaram, the Manimekhalai, the Cintamani, the Valaipayati and the Kuntalakeci are considered to be the major epics or Perunkappiyams in the ancient Tamil literature. Of these five works, only the Cilapat tikaram and the Cintamani can be deemed major epics. The Cilappatikaram distinguishes itself as an epic by its grand style, diction, noble sentiments, etc. It is in fact a dramatic epic the Natakakappiam.34 The Cintamani began a new era in the history of Tamil epics. It was the first epic written in Viruttam verses, and served as a model for subsequent epic ( Puranam ) poems.35 It was likewise the first epic to introduce an invocation to God as a necessary beginning of an epic; there is no other epic of earlier times which begins with an invocation in Tamil. This practice probably came into vogue in the Pallava period. It is the Cintamani that introduced the ideal description of an utopia--the country, the river, the city and the inhabitants--as the very beginning of every epic; all Purana poets of successive ages have followed the Civakacintamani in respect of form and method. The poets who came after Tiruttakkatevar have expressed reverence and admiration for him in the homages they paid to him;37 they are the praises expressed by loving hearts moved Page #536 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ N. M. Kansara 211 commentators have quoted profusely in their commentaries on ancient literature and grammar, it is called 'Mahakaviam' which set up certain conventions as have served as a model for the later poets when composing their epics (Puranas) " As Father Beschi puts it, "Tiruttakkatevar is a prince among the Tamil poets", and as G. Pope says, "Givakacintamani is the greatest existing Tamil literary monument; the great romantic epic which is at once the Iliad and Odyssey of the Tamil language, and one of the great epics of the world."42 It is no wonder that in the Tamil area, the Givakacintamani was read in every house as it covered all the fourfold human goal of Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksa respectively-called Aram, Porul, Inpam and Vitu respectively in Tamil13. Not only that the Periyapurana came to be composed, because the Saivas used to read. the Cintamani of rough, false and theivish Jainas; which only shows that the Cin:amani had become popular even outside the Jaina circles. The Tamil text is more exhaustive, and it is not surprising that Odeyadeva thought of giving a Sanskrit adaptation of it in ornate style following the models of Subandhu and Bana; this is most probably hinted by the lesa in "Loke cintamanir iva parah" in the concluding verse, and was expected to gain matching popularity and state patronage.45 Moreover, the significance of the expressian "Jivandhara-prabhava-punya-purana-yogad vakyam mama'pyubhaya-loka-hita-pradayi by Vadfbhasimha cannot be caught unless we realise that the word 'Purana' stands for a major Epic (Malakappiam) in Tamil and a mythological history (Purana) in Sanskrit; thus Vadibhas mha seems to hint that since his work is connected with the mythological history (purana) of JIvandhara's excellent life (pre bhava).-such as it is preserved in Gunabhadra's Uttarapurana etc., his work will earn profuse merit calculated to help him attain divine status after death; and since his classic is connected with the major epic. (purana) treating the excellent life (prabhava) of Jivandhara, like the Tamil Cintamani of Tiruttakkatevar so much held in reverence, -it will fetch him matching por u larity among the classics of his age! This situation reveals the motive that inspired Vadibhasimha to name his work in the out-of-the-way manner. The above conclusion is confirmed when we consider the second question as to why the poet composed yet another classic based on the same old story and the same old theme of preaching the Jaina ideal of human life, and again named it as 'Ksatra-cudamani' in the similar uncustomary manner. Just as, as we have seen above, the Cilappatikaram, the Manimekalai, the Cintamani etc. are considered the five major epics or Perunkappiams in Tamil, one other set of five works, namely the Utayanakumara Kaviyam, Natakumara Kaviyam, Yacotara Kaviyam, Culamani and Nilakeci, are named as minor epics or Cirukappiyams. Here again these works, except for the Culamani, lack epic characteristics; only the Culamani deserves to be called an epic. It is written in the epic style in Viruttam verses. Its author is said to be Tolamolittevar. Since Jaina philosophy is found in Page #537 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Sources of Vadibhasimha's Gadya-cintamani the work, it is evident that the author was a Jaina by faith. It was written immediately after the Cintamani came into existence, and before the commentary on the Yapparunkalam, in which some of its stanzas are quoted, was written in the 10th century A. D.47 212 The Culamani telates that Payapati, the king, had two sons, by name Vicayan, and Tivittan, by his wives Mikapati and Caci, respectively. Acuvakrivan is the enemy of the two sons. Tivittan, the younger son, marries Cuy amprapai, the daughter of a Vityatara king. Acuvakrivan fights with Tivittan and dies. Tivittan becomes the king. His father Payapati and his elder brother Vicayan renounce the world. The Culamani deals with the story in a grand style. It is written in Viruttam verses of various kinds.45 In the light of the above information, and in view of the fact that the real name of the author of the GC was "Odeyadeva" which is but a Sanskritised form. of the original Tamil name like Otey atevar' or 'Uttiyatevar', 'Vadithasimha' being merely an honorific pseudonym or nom de plume, it is clear that the author of the GC and the KC was a Tamilian, that he was familiar with the Tamil classics of Tiruttakkatevar and Tolamolittevar, and that inspired by the popularity of these two veteran epic poets, he too undertook to compose a Sanskrit prototype of the Tamil Culamani too. However, he chose therein to summarise the story of Jivandhara, who was in his eyes the hero par excellence, rather than sing the glory of a comparatively inferior hero like Tivittan. Hence the title Ksatracudamani", which emphasises that the work is another Culamani relating the story of a real warrior (ksatra), i. e., a protector rather than a killer, in contrast to the Tamil Culamani wherein the hero is a mere avenger of his enemy. Vadrbhasimha, thus, seems to have composed the two classics to give us the Sanskrit prototypes of the celebrated Tamil classics-one of them of the major type and another of the minor type, doubly qualifying him for an honoured place among the great epic poets of Tamil and of India as a whole. And in undertaking the task he was actuated more by a spirit of flling the gap in the Sanskrit literature than by a mere spirit of competition; both Tiruttakkatevar and 'Oteyateyar' alias Vadibhasimha belonged to the Digambara sect of Jainism, and both wrote to glorify the Jainistic way of life. When we compare the stories in the light of the chronology of the works in view of the above discussion, and in view of the fact that the chronological gap between the UP and the CC between the CC and the GC as also the KC was hardly more than a century or its a half, some new points emerge which indeed are interesting As has been noticed in the foregoing, scholars who have compared the works. of Gunabhadra and Puspadanta find that the latter follows the former in all the details of the narrative. It is natural since the purpose of both works is to codify Page #538 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Sources of Vadibhasimha's Gadya-cintamani 213 and preserve the folklore tradition of the Jaina personages as current during their days. The works like the CC, the GC, the KC and the JC, on the other hand, which deal with the story of JIvandhara, form another class, since they treat the story from an altogether different standpoint; they have composed the classical masterpieces wherein the story serves as the basic skeleton while the emphasis is solely on the style, diction and embellishments. The poets here tend to introduce necessary changes in some minor points of the story in view of their literary outlook, and social environment as well as the contemporary poetic conventions. Now we shall compare the JIvandhara stories as narrated by Gunabhadra Puspadanta, Tiruttakkatevar and Vadsbhasimha, in points of difference, since the rest of the narration is more or less the same in all these works : 1) The UP, the MP and the SP refer to Rudradatta (Ruttiratatattan' in the SP), a family priest to king Satyandhara.50 The CC, the GC and the KC are altogether silent on this character. 2) Both the UP and the MP relate that the queen Vijaya saw two dreams, namely (i) that the king presented to her a crown adorned with eight bells, and (ii) that the Asoka tree under which she was sitting was cut off with an axe by some one and a fresh tree sprouted in its place.51 The CC, the GC and the KC refer to three dreams, namely (i) that all the flowers of the Asoka tree wither a way and then the tree itself falls down as if struck by lightning, (ii) that a new shoot sprouts from its trunk, and (iii) that the shoot has a crown on it, it grows rapidly, and eight white garlands adorn the crown 52 While the CC mentions the colour of the garlands, the GC and the KC ignore it. 3) Both the UP and the MP narrate that when Muni Silagupta uttered his prophesy about the male offspring to Gandhotkata, some Yakswho was present there heard it, arrived at the king's palace, and entered into the Garuda yantra ("Karutayantiram' in the SP) in order to help the mother at the time of the birth of the child.53 The CC, the GC and the KC narrate that the king ordered to be made by a skillful workman a peacock-machine (Mayirpori' in the CC)-a contrivance in the form of a peacock which could be made to move in the sky and drawn by a mechanism, and he roamed in it in company of the queen.64 But in the CC the suggestion for the Mayirpori came from a minister who had misgivings that the downfall of the king was not far off, and that the queen Vicayai was soon taught how to work the machine.55 4) The UP, the MP and the SP narrate that one morning the state-priest Rudradatta went to the royal palace to see the king. As he met the queen, she told him that the king was in the bed and he could not see him then. The priest considered this to be a bad women, and went to the chief-minister Kastbangarika (Kastarikarikan' in the SP) and secretly instigated him to kill the king. Kasthangarika was shocked at the priest's suggestion, and putting his palms over his ears in order Page #539 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 214 N. M. Kansara not to hear such trecherous words from the priest, he said that the priest had sinned by instigating him to kill the king, and that even though he was only the son of a man who carries wood, he entrusted the entire administration of the kingdom to him. Thereupon the priest replied that he was destined to be killed by the king's son and that under those circumstances he may do what is best for himself. Then the priest took leave of him. On the third day the priest contacted a dreadful disease and died. The thought that he will be killed by the king's son, simmered in the mind of Kasthangarika, and made him nervous. Eventually he decided to kill the king:56 In the CC, the GC and the KC it is depicted that the king Satyandhara was given to pleasures, neglected the affairs of the state, and left the administration to Kasthangara. In the CC a minister named Nimmittan tries to enumerate numerous instances of the bad c ipsequences of exclusive devotion to pleasures.57 In all these three works Kasthangara (Kattiyankaran in the CC) covers the throne himself, and with the support of Mathana ('Matanan' in the CC) attacks the king Satyandhara (Caccantan' in the CC),58 the only difference is that in the CC Matanan is a nephew, while in the GC and the KC Mathana is the brother-in-law of Kasthangara.59 5) The UP depicts the scene in the centenary where witches are said to have been snatching the half-burnt corpses from the funeral pyres.60 Puspadanta has dropped this description. So do Tiruttakkatevar and Vadibhasimha. 6 ) Both the UP and the SP mention that since she mounted the peacockmachine, the queen was being protected by the Yakst ("Yaksi Tevatai in the SP) who then appears in prison to console the queen who is lamenting after she has delivered the child. Puspadanta just mentions the incident in passing.61 In the CC and the GC some goddess appears before the queen in the guise of a maid-servant named Campakamala ("Canpakamalai in the CC),62 while in the KC the name is not given.es 7) Both in the UP and the SP, Gandhotkata (Kantotkatan' in the SP) who comes to bury his dead child, finds the baby and at the request of the queen to rear the child, takes it home with great joy and gives it to his wife. He pretends to be angry and chides her for having told him to bury the child withougt properly testing whether it was dead. Sunanda (Cunatai' in the SP), seeing that her child is alive, receives him with great joy believing it to be her own son.64 Puspadanta does not narrate this incident in detail but only mentions that Gamdhukkada did not reveal the secret to his wife.65 In the CC the story is more or less the same, as in the UP and the SP.86 But in the GC and the KC the queen is shown to have put the royal ring on the child's finger and herself stood concealed under a nearby tree.67 8) The UP narrates that queen Vijaya then went to a hermitage in Dandakaranya by means of the same Garuda-yantra and stayed there incognito: and that the Yaksi used to go there daily to entertain her with religious stories. 68 The MP merely mentions that the queen went to Dandaya-vana with the help of the Garudajamta.69 The CC, the GC and the KC narrate that when the queen declined to live with her brother, the Yaksi took her to the hermitage in Dandakaranya.70 Page #540 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Sources of Vadibhasimha's Gadya-cintamani 2is 9) The UP, the MP and the SP refer to two more queens of Satyandhara, Bhamarati (Paramarati in the SP) and Anangapataka ("Ananka patakai' in the SP) and their respective sons, Madhura (Maturan' in the SP) and Bakula ("Vakulan in the SP); but the names of the queens in the MP are slightly different, Rai and Mayagapadaya.71 The CC, the GC and the KC drop this detail. These two boys were being reared up by Gandhotkata, along with Jivandhara and other boys. 10) The UP, the MP and the SP enumerate as the chief companions of Jfvandhara the following: Madhura ('Maturan' in the SP), Bakula ("Vakulan' in the SP); Devasena ('Tevacenan' in the SP), Buddhisena ("Putticenan, in the SP), Varadatta ("Varadattan' in the SP), Madhumukha (Matumukan' in the SP), and Nandadhya (Nantattiyan' in the SP) 72 The UP and the SP mention that Jivandhara lived among these boys during his childhood.73 According to the CC, the chief compa: nions of Civakan are Nantattan, Patumukan, Putticenah, Napulan, Vipulan Tevatattan and Citattan.74 Vadibhasimha here seems to add, in both the GC and the KC, that while Gandhotkata gave a reception in honour of the birth of Jivandhara; the ignorant Kasthangara thought that it was given in honour of his having obtained the kingdom, and made over the treasure of Satyandhara to Gandhotkata and ordered that the children born at that time should be reared together at the house of the merchant.76 11) The UP narrates an incident that while once Jivandhara was playing with his companions, a mendicant asked him as to how far the city was from the place. Jivandhara called him ignorant since he could not surmise that it could not be far off in view of the children playing there. The mendicant concluded on the basis of the intelligent reply that the boy was a royal child, and requested him to offer him some food. Jivandhara took him home and with the due permission of Gandhotkata fed the mendicant. When both were eating, Jivandhara began to cry. At the question from the medicant about the reason for weeping Jivaka enumerated the benefits of weeping! Impressed by this incident, the mendicant introduced himself to the merchant as the ex king Aryavarman of Sidhapura, who had been initiated into the Jaina monastic order by Muni Varanandi, and that he was moving in the guise of the mendicant since he was suffering from the disease of morbid apetic from over-digestion (bhasmaka). Then Gandhotkata entrusts the boy to him for proper education.76 The CC, the GC and the KC narrate this part differently and the teacher tells this to Jivandhara after his education is over. The Teacher's name is given as Aryanandi ('Accapanti' in the CC) who was once the king Lokapala ("Ulokapalan' in the CC) in the Vidyadhara region. From the points of comparision and contrast discussed above by way of a few noteworthy specimens, it emerges that out of the UP and the MP, the GC and KC and the CC, the latter three have greater affinity with each other than with the former two. And Vadibhasimha, being later than Gunabhadra, undoubtedly had the know Page #541 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 216 N. M. Kansara ledge of the UP, especially because in his story of Ksemasrt in the GC and the KC he follows Gunabhadra's version of the story of Ksemasundart in the UP. In the CC, however, this story is narrated in a different way. At the same time the new episodes that are introduced in the GC and the KC are not found in the UP, but they are found in the CC, much in the same manner as they are narrated in the GC and the KC. R. Vijayalakshmy has classified such similarities into two sections, namely (i) the new episodes and incidents which are not found in the UP and are met with in the CC, the GC and the KC, and (ii) similarity in manner and style of descriptions encentered in the GC, the KC and the CC." She has closely compared 14 such incidents and episodes falling under the first section, and 25 instances of similarity in manner and style of description. Moreover, she has extensively quoted six instances of similarities of the phrases used in the descriptions. And she has also observed, as a result of her intensive comparative study, that where the descriptions in the CC proceed on the lines of Tamil literary and cultural tra ditions, the GC simply omits them. For instance, the descriptions of five kinds of lands, the meeting and love episodes of Patumai and Crvacan, though found in the CC, are but conspicuous by their absence in the GC and the KC. But indirect influence of such descriptions is found in the GC, and in these the latter shows Vadibhasimha's indebtedness to the CC. Vijayalakshmy has further discussed. such examples under two sections: (i) the examples which show that the knowledge of the CC is necessary to understand what is said in the GC; and (ii) those in which one can see the Tamil literary traditions in the GC which came through the CC. In the light of the following discussion, she has shown the indebtedness of Vadibhasimha to Tirutakkatevar. More significantly, she has pointed out that the term 'Cintamani' has been used only by Tirutakkatevar while referring to Crvakan. It is the name by which Vicayai, Crvacan's mother calls him at the time of his birth."1 Tirutakkatevar also refers to CTvacan by the word 'cintamani' when he says that he has narrated the life-story of Cintamani (i. e. CTvakan) Thus, Vijayalakshmy too feels that Vadrbhasimha is reffering to only the CC in his phrase 'cintamanir iva parah. Vadibhasimha's works do not contain any references similar to the CC, which would justify the word 'Cintamani' in his title 'Gadya-cintamani' (the prose Cintamani), which thus appears to presuppose the existence of a Padya' (verse)Cintamani. And it is with the view to avoid confusion with this latter that he was further compelled to choose the title 'Kastra' for his metrical work treating the same story. But, instead of calling this later work 'cintamani' he roped in the very popular title 'culamani' of a famous Tamil classic and amalgamated it with. this metrical work, bestowing on it indirectly the halo of fame as a sort of 'Padya' -Cintamani comparable to the famous Tamil classic of Tolamolittevar, namely the Culamani. And the title 'Ksatra-cudamani' (the crest-jewel amongst the warriors) fitted well with the hero, more commendably in this way. In her opinion, thus, the works of Vadrbhasimha are not of earlier origin than the CC, which was Page #542 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ The Sources of Vadibhasimha's Gadya-cintamani 217 composed between the later half of the 8th Cent. A. D. and the first half of the 9th Cent. A. D. The conclusion is inescapable that Vadibhasisha drew his story from Gunabhadra's MP, but took his inspiration for the composition of his Sanskrit clasics, the GC and the KC, in a bid to claim for them a matching literary estimation and popular fame, enjoyed so far only by the celebrated Tamil classics of Tirutakkatevar and Tolamolitte var, respectively.

Page #545 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Jaina Theory of Many-sidedness of Reality and Truth ( Anekantavada) Nagin J. Shah Jainism is one of the important systems of Indian philosophy, and Anekanta. vada is regarded by scholars as the central philosophy of Jainism. Anekantavada is the theory of many-sidedness of reality and truth. It presupposes the theory of standpoints or partial truths ( Nayavada ). Anekantavada investigates how each of the views contains some truth. As a result, it arrives at the conclusion that different systems of philosophy are partially true, hence none of them is wholly true, and that if each of them would see thiogs from the opponent's viewpoint as well as its own there would be perfect harmony all round. Nayavada and Anekantavada According to Jaina philosophy a real thing or object ( vastu ) has infinite characters ( ananta-dhramatmaka ), implying thereby that it possesses even opposite characters. A real thing is therefore manysided ( anekantatmaka ). Again, the Jaina thinkers maintain that both substance ( dravya ) and mode ( paryaya ) constitute the nature of a real thing, and further they relate permanence (dhrauvya, nityatva ) to substance and origination-destruction (utpada-vyaya ) to modes. Therefore, a real thing has two opposite characters permanence and change. Again, they tell that a real thing is constituted of general features and particular features. Hence has two opposite characters-universality and particularity, or similarity and dissimila. rity, or the one and the Many. Thus, ontologically, a real thing is a veritable confluence of opposites. A real thing is not merely a mixture of the opposites. It is not a mixture of sub. stance and mode but something sui generis (jatyantara ). Substance and mode are so blended as to present a real thing sui generis which is, therefore, not vitiated by the defects of the two taken singly and separately, at the same time they are never found outside a real thing, nor one without the other. Similar is the case with universal and particular of a real thing. Thus, a real thing is a unique synthesis of opposites. We ordinary mortals can attend to one aspect or character of a real thing at a time and consequently can have the knowledge of only one aspect or character of a real thing. And our concentration on one aspect or character is conditioned by our purpose, intention etc. Such partial knowledge of only one aspect or character is called naya", and a judgement based on such partial knowledge is also called naya. A naya is defined as a particular opinion or a viewpoint-.a viewpoint which does Page #546 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ faina Theory of Manysidedness of Reality and Truth ( Anekantavada ) 221 not rule out other different viewpoints and is, thereby, expressive of partial truth about a real thing-as entertained by a knowing agents. A viewpoint ( naya ) can prevent itself from lapsing into dogmatic absolute assertion and becoming thereby a pseudo-viewpoint ( durnaya ), by qualifying itself with a word 'syat' ('from a particular standpoint', 'in a certain sense') expressing conditionality, thus keeping open the possibility of other different viewpoints. Thus the doctrine of naya is the doctrine of Relativity of Knowledge and of Conditioned Judgement. Our knowledge or judgement is true only in reference to the standpoint adopted and the aspect of a real thing considered. The doctrine means that Reality is conveyed to the mind differently from different viewpoints. Or, it means that mind approaches Reality differently from different viewpoints. As we look at Reality from different angles or view points, our descriptions of it differ. All these descriptions are partially true, for none of them presents the whole truth. The various non-Jaina systems of philosophy represent partial aspects of Reality and hence they are partially true. The nayas ( viewpoints ) are not subjective but objective. They have as their objects different aspects of Reality. The doctrine of naya analyses a real thing into different aspects from different standpoints. Jaina theoreticians have attempted to find out philosophical viewpoints and to classify them on different principles of classification. The next step is to effect synthesis of these different philosophical views of partial truths into the whole concrete truth. To assign them their proper place in the whole truth and synthesise them into the whole truth is the task of Anekantavada at epistemological and logical level. Anekantavada integrates nayas into a consistent and comprehensive synthesis. The Jaina Anekanta philosophy emerges as the whole synthetic concrete truth from the mutual conflicts of the abstract partial truths represented by the several philosophical schools. In this sense, Jaina Anekanta philosophy becomes Philosophy of philosophies. For presenting a synthesis of all possible philosophical views on a particular point or character (dharma ) the Jaina thinkers have devised a methodology of Saptabhangi (the seven-fold predication or seven-fold judgement). Let us take the point or character of existence. Regarding it, the following seven views are possible. They are : (0) From a certain viewpoint, x exists. (ii) From a certain viewpoint, x does not exist. (iii) From a certain viewpoint, x exists and does not exist. (iv) From a certain viewpoint, x is inexpressible ( with regard to existence-non existence characters ). (v) From a certain viewpoint, x exists and is inexpressible. (vi) From a certain viewpoint, x does not exist, and is inexpressible. (vii) From a certain viewpoint, x exists, does not exist, and is inexpressible. These are the seven avayavas ( constituent parts ) of the whole synthetic com. prehensive statement ( vakya ) on a particular point or character, Page #547 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 222 Nagin ). Shah The first avayava means that x exists from the viewpoint of its own nature'. X exists as x. The second implies that x does not exist from the viewpoint of 'foreiga nature'. X does not exist as other-than x. The third predicates of x both existence and non-existence in succession. This avayava is a compound of the first and the second. It is not unitary and primary. The fourth means that both existence cannot be predicated of x simultaneously due to the limitation of language. But it does not mean that they are not present in x simultaneously. We may say that the third is a mixture or combination of the first and the second while the fourth is a concrete synthesis of the first and the second, it is sui generis (jatyantara ) and hence unitary and primary. Vidyananda ( c early 9th cent.A.D.) notes that the fourth is the joint and simultaneous affirmation and denial ( of existence in x)? The fifth is a compound one combining the first and the fourth, the sixth is a compound one combining the second and the fourth, and the seventh is a compound one combining the third and the fourth. These seven avayavas exhaust all the mathematical possibilities with regard to one character. When they are taken as seven constituent parts of a vakya ( statement or judgement), they together present an integrated and comprehensive true description of a real thing with regard to one particular point or character ( dharma ). And as there are infinite characters in a real thing, there are infinite such saptabhangi vakyas (seven-fold judgements). Evolution of Anekantavada : Doctrine of relative judgement (nayavada ) is traceable to the Agamas. In the Vyakhya-prajnapti Jina Mahavira states that jiva ( soul ) and pudgala ( matter) are both permanent and changing, permanent from the point of view of substance ( dayvatthayae ) and changing from the point of view of modes (bhavatthayae ).8 Thus, here one fundamental pair of standpoints is referred to. In the Anuyogadvarasutra we come across a passage referring to seven standpoints, namely naigama etc. Again, it states that the different parts of a physical aggregate might be characterised by anupurvi, ananupurvi and avaktavya. This can very well be regarded as a mention of three primary avayavas or bhangas of a saptabhangi vakya. Upadhye has found a reference to the three primary avayavas in tbe Vyakhya-prajnapti.' In the Avasyakaniryukti, definitions of seven viewpoints ( naigama etc. ) are given. Again, it mentions three pairs of dravyarthika-paryayarthika, vyavahara-niscaya and jnana-kriya. In the Satkhandagama we find the neat employment of the doctrine of nayas. Umasvati (c. 4th cent. A. D.) devotes two aphorisms to the doctrine of nayas.10 He speaks of the traditional seven nayas and the contemporary literature is full of references to them. He does not make any explicit mention of the seven avayavas of saptabhangt. Till the time of Umasvati, while dealing with the doctrine of nayas no explicit reference to non-Jaina schools of philosophy is made, nor can it be said that such a reference is implicitly present. The viewpoints are not studied with their supporting arguments, nor are they examined and criticised. With Umasvati ends Page #548 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Jaina Theory of Manysidedness of Reality and Truth ( Anekantavada ) 223 the age of Agamas. And with Siddhasena Divakara ( c. first half of the 5th cent. A. D. ) the age of Logic sets in. In this age we find explicit mention of non-Jaina philosophical schools, supporting arguments of their viewpoints and their criticism. Siddhasena says: 'Since a real thing has infinite characters, it is comprehended only by the omniscient. But a real thing becomes the subject-matter of a naya, when it is conceived from one particular standpoint'. 11 Interesting is his following statement : "There are as many views of the form of nayas as there are the ways of speaking, while there are as many rival (non-Jaina ) philosophical tenets as there are views of the form of nayas'.12 Again, he declares : "All the standpoints ( nayas) are right in their own respective spheres-but if they are taken to be refutations, each of the other, then they are wrong. But a man who knows the 'non-onesided' ( anekanta ) nature of reality never says that a particular view is absolutely wrong."13 He was probably the first in the Jaina tradition to synthesise the Sankhya view with the Buddhist view. Thus he observes : "The system of philosophy taught by Kapila is a representation of substance viewpoint, and that which is taught by the son of Suddhodana (the Buddha ) is an exposition of mode viewpoint."14 Regarding Vaisesika system he remarks: 'Although the philosophical system of Kanada applies both standpoints, it is also fallacious because the standpoints are employed each independently of the other.'15 The point of Siddhasena is that the Vaigesikas simply combine the two standpoints, but do not synthesise them. The Jainas, on the other band, synthesise the two and build them into a coherent whole. Siddhasena also claims that the Vaisesikas and the Buddhists are correct insofar as they point out the faults and fallacies of the Sankhya view of causation and the Sankhya philosophers are correct insofar as they criticise the Buddhists and the Vaisesikas. But when these two views of causality ( satkarya and asatkarya ) are adjusted together in compliance with the anekanta method; the result will be the True Insight ( samyag-darsana, omniscience ).16 In its unmistakably recognisable form, the doctrine of Saptabhangi first appears in Siddhasena's Sanmati. Next we may take Jinabhadra's Visesavasyaka-bhasya (C. A.D: 585). It docs not much concern itself with the views of rival systems of philosophy, though it is not wholly bereft of occasional references to some. His treatment of seven nayas, occasional application to certain specific cases and his account of dravyastika and paryayastika are interesting.17 He defines jnananaya and kriyanaya. Again he presents three versions of niscayanaya-vyavaharanaya.18 His reference to the Saptabhangi doctrine is extremely summary and fails to be informative. Kundakunda's ( c. 3rd quarter of the 8th cent. A. D./Dhaky's dating ) Samayasara certainly adds a new dimension to the discussion concerning the problem of vyavaharanaya ( the standpoint of worldly behaviour ) vs. niscayanaya (the definite or transcendental standpoint ). His recourse to it is so massive that it startles us. From the transcendental standpoint the soul is independent, self-existent and un. Page #549 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 224 Nagin J. Shah contaminated by matter; while from the standpoint of the worldly behaviour it is involved in karma as well as in the birth and rebirth cycle. As to viewing the niscaya-vyavahara pair in more than one ways is possible, the procedure adopted by Kundakunda was not totally impermissible. But what was un-Jaina like was Kundakunda's declaration that the standpoint of worldly behaviour is a totally false standpoint.19 In his Pancastikaya he mentions the fullfledged seven avayavas or bhangas of Saptabharge. Samantabhadra ( C.A.D. 550-625 : Dhaky's dating ) laid a firm foundation of Anekantavada upon which Akalanka (active C. A. D. 725-780 ). Vidyananda and Yasovijaya ( 17th cent. A. D.) built a grand super-structure. Samantabhadra's Antamimamsa deserves a special mention in the history of Anekanta philosophy for more reasons than one. The framework worked out in the Apta-mimarsa for criticising onesided philosophical views proved to be a major helpful model for subsequent authors. Certainly, the task of the Jaina thinkers belonging to the later times was to command mastery over the contemporary systems of philosophy and subject them to criticism ( and computation ) mainly in terms of the model provided by the Apramimarsa. The work has a good fortune of being commented upon by Aka. lanka, Vidyananda and Yosovijaya It is meritorious inasmuch as the fundamentals of Anekantavada have found in it the clearest formulation. 'Samantabhadra had a clear consciousness of what constitutes the central contention of the doctrine of Anekaota, namely that a thing must be characterised by two mutually contradictory features at one and the same time. He also realised that the doctrine was applicable rather universally : that is to say, he felt that taking anything and any feature at random it could be shown that this thing is characterised by this feature as also by the concerned contradictory feature. .. Another aspect of Samantabhadra's performance also deserves notice. He apparently attaches utmost importance to the Saptabhangi doctrine and in fact makes it the starting point of his investigation in the Aptamimamsa)."'20 Again, what is noteworthy is his attributing the name 'naya' to each of the seven bhangas as also the denomination "syadvada' to the totality of all the seven bhangas. Haribhadra's Anekantajayapat aka (C. A. D. 770 ) is a much advanced text as compared to the Aptamimarsa; but, for the most part, it adopts the latter's model while arranging its material. It is chiefly interested in vindicating the validity of Anekantavada. As is expected, Akalanka's most crystal-like and concentrated enunciation and defence of Anekantavada occurs in his Astasati, a commentary on the Aptamima. ma. Here he elaborately deals with the most fundamental philosophical views centring around the acceptance or otherwise of two contradictory features. His discussions constitute the first most comprehensive and mature vindication of Anekantavada. This is so, because, in them he was taken into consideration the rival positions as actually maintained in the contemporary works of various non-Jaina Page #550 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Jaina Theory of Manysidedness of Reality and Truth ( Anekantavada) 225 schools, particularly the Buddhist, and also because by his time these schoolsnotably the Buddhist-had reached almost the acme of perfection. "Samantabhadra had clinched the most crucial point that the Jaina thinkers of his age had to elaborate viz. the all-out importance of Anekantavada as the central criterion for evaluating the contemporary non-Jaina philosophical systems. He has offered valuable hints as to the lines on which the systems like the Buddhist, the Sankhya and the Nyaya-Vaisesika had to be assailed. But he hardly went beyond offering mere hints. Akalanka continued what Samantabhadra begun and so he was in a position to enter into a larger number of details than was the case with the latter."(But] Akalarka's was not an all-round battle against possible rivals. The credit for waging such a battle goes to Vidyananda who had thoroughly mastered both the contemporary systems and the legacy left by Akalarika......." "His most outstanding treatment of Anekantavada is found in Astasahasti, a commentary on Astasati. For in this work he undertook a detailed examination of certain one-sided views on certain most burning philosophical questions. ... ... Vidyananda's studies in Anekantavada is the most solid contribution to the treasure-house of philosophy. Anekantavada is a much misunderstood doctrine and its defence at the hands of incompetent persons only makes matters worse. But Vidyananda's competence was of a higher order and so his elaboration of the essentials of Anekantavada deserves serious study by those who harbour genuine misgivings against this typical Jaina philosophical doctrine. "21 In Yasovijaya's works we reach the highest pinnacle of Anekantavada. He had thoroughly mastered the rich heritage. Of his writings the most important are three texts devoted to the problems of Anekantavada, namely the Nayarahasya, the Anekantavyavastha and the Nayopadesa. His Astasahasrivivarana, a commentary on Vidyananda's Astasahasri, is noteworthy. Like Vidyananda he was extremely well-versed in the contemporary systems of Indian philosophy. Besides, he was gifted with a brain whose sharpness and acuteness were unparallelled, this may be due to his mastery over the intricacies of Navya-nyaya. Let us see how he utilises his learning of Navya-nyaya in elucidating and defending the doctrine of Anekanta. "It was an old Jaina position that a thing exists from the standpoint of its own properties while it does not exist from the standpoint of the alien properties....... It constituted the heart of Anekantavada doctrine and so the generations of Jaina scholars defended it as best they could. But in Navya-nyaya circles a position similar to the present one began to be maintained. Thus they would speak of a thing's absence limited" by a property not belonging to it, e.g. a jar's absence "limited" by clothness (patatvavadhikaghatabhavah ); and it was given out that such an absence of a thing exists even at a place wbere the thing itself exists. Yosovijaya aptly pointed out that this amounted to endorsing the Jaina position that a thing as viewed from the standpoint of the alien properties does not exist (i. e. is Page #551 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 226 Nagin J. Shah absent ) even at a place where it is seen to exist, it being the case that at this place it exists only as viewed from the standpoint of its own properties.... Navya-naiyayikas would argue that variegated colour is a type sui generis and not just a mechani. cal juxtaposition of the constituent colours; Yasovija ya pointed out that in a similar fashion the unity of opposites spoken of by the Jaina is a type sui generis and not just a mechanical juxtaposition of the opposites concerned. As a matter of fact, a close observer could not fail to see that there was some sort of basic similarity between the Jaina's traditional pre-occupation with the problem of 'standpoint and the Navya-naiyayika's current preoccupation with the problem of 'avacchedakata both were meant to ensure that no ambiguities remained attached to what one says ..Yasovijaya was as thorough a student of Navya-nyaya as that of the traditional Jaina positions and this one fact is sufficient to make his treatment of Ane kantavada unique performance."22 Demands of Anekantavada on its upholders Anekantavada being the synthesis of partial truths (philosophical viewopoints) into the whole concrete truth, it requires the understanding of partial truths with their logic, otherwise whose synthesis will it effect! And Anekanta becomes richer and richer as it takes into its fold more and more partial truths to make synthesis. So, it becomes imperative on the upholders of Anekantavada to study and understand as many philosophical views as are possible. Their task is stupendous but rewarding. They should not neglect any philosophical system propounded by any thinker. Their study should not be confined to Jaina works alone. The Jaina acaryas of the past realised this and hence they studied and understood all the philosophical views prevalent in their times in India. At present the philosophical works of the thinkers of the whole world are within the reach of Jaina thinkers and students; so, if they are really upholders of Anekantavada, they should study them and find out whatever truth there is in them and give them due place in the synthetic concrete whole truth which Anekantavada tries to arrive at. For this they should learn as many languages as possible. Jaina acaryas of the past are well known for their mastery over various regional languages of India; their contribution to them testifies to this fact. Jainas of the present times should continue this tradition and learn at least that language which has assumed the status of world language. Non-violence ( Ahimsa ) and Anekantavada The highest goal of all systems of Indian philosophy is liberation ( moksa). For the attainment of this goal they have prescribed their respective spiritual disciplines which do not differ much from one another. In all these spiritual disciplines the practitioner is necessarily required to cultivate five prime virtues, namely nonviolence, trutlr, non-theft, celebacy and non-possession. And among these five, non-violence is supreme and fundamental. It is so fundamental that the rest depends Page #552 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Jaina Theory of Manysidedness of Reality and Truth (Anekantavada) on it and are included in it, not only that but it provides us with the sole criterion for determining as to what is truth, etc.23 That which involves violence is not truth even though it may be factually true, and conversely that which does not involve violence is truth even though it may be factually untrue. That which hurts others is never truth. So, one should not speak what hurts others and should also respect the views of others.24 One should not be stubborn to state that what one says is the only truth. Not to hurt others in presenting one's view implies one's respect for other's view. So, one should be very cautious in one's statement of one's view. One should qualify one's statement by 'this is my faith', 'this is my view', etc. implying thereby that others may have different faith or view. By thus saying one protects the truth, while making absolute statements one harms the truth. This spirit prevails in all the ethical systems of India. It is this spirit that has given rise to the theory of Anekantavada. Anekantavada recognises non-onesidedness or manifoldness of the truth. The whole concrete truth is the synthesis of the viewpoints. Anekantavada finds some truth in each and every view. It assigns all the viewpoints their proper place to form the whole truth. It accepts all the views in its fold and effects such a synthesis of them all as would result in the whole concrete truth sui generis. It is not merely juxtaposition or mixture of the opposite views. It rejects no view. "Non-violence abstention from killing or taking the life of others, was the dominent trend in the whole sramana movement in India, particularly in Buddhism. and Jainism. I think the Jainas carried the principle of non-violence to the intellectual level, and thus propounded their anekanta doctrine. Thus the hallmark of the anekanta doctrine was tolerance. The principle embodied in the respect for the life of others was transformed by the Jaina philosophers at the intellectual level to respect for the views of others. This is, I think, a unique attempt to harmonize the persistent discord in the field of philosophy." 227 "this doctrine of Anekantavada helps us in cultivating the attitude of toleration towards the views of our adversaries. It does not stop there but takes us a step forward by making us investigate as to how and why they hold a different. view and how the seeming contradictories can be reconciled to evolve harmony; It is thus an attempt towards syncretism."

Page #555 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ DHARMAKIRTI'S ATTITUDE TOWARD OMNISCIENCE Roger Jackson In his autobiography, The Ochre Robe, Swami Agehananda Bharati describes an encounter with a college student on a bus in south India. The student tells Bharati : 'I wish I knew the Brahman like you or Swami Vivekananda or other sages, for then I would not have to study so hard for my exams ! It did not take me long to get at the root of this baffling reasoning. Here was a young victim of an age-old fallacy, for there is a term in the scriptures which literally means 'omniscient', sarvajna, and it is averred that a person who has intuited the absolute becomes a sarvajna, literally one who knows everything. But the trouble is that 'sarvajna' is a purely technical term used in Vedantic literature, and is synonymous wilh 'brahmajna', a "knower of Brahman', which again means one who has realized his oneness with the Absolute......1 Bharati's interpretation of omniscience may not meet with the approval of all Vedantins, but there is no doubt whatever that in Jainism and in fully-developed Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism, the being who has attained all there is to be attained-be he a tithankara or a tathagata-is held to be omniscient in the sense that he knows all there is to know of conventional and ultimate truth, of past, present and future, of the minds of other beings-in short, omniscient in precisely the sense ridiculed by Bharati when he goes on to ask his earnest interlocutor, "Do you then believe...that Ramakrishna Paramahamsa knew mathematics, atomic physics, English literature, and all that ?"2 The student answers this rhetorical question in the affirmative, and one assumes that a doctrinaire Jaina or Buddhist would, too. While the majority of Jainas and Buddhists would affirm that the perfected beings in their respective traditions are omniscient in the most universal sense, there is room in both traditions for divergent interpretations. Prof. Ram Jee Singh points out that in the course of the development of Jaina thought, there are "the two important senses, namely, omniscience as knowledge of essentials and omniscience as universal knowledge, which ultimately survive and represent as two opposed views on the subject.""3 Present-day advocates of omniscience in the limited sense of knowledge of essentials seek "to establish the theory of omniscience on a scientific and logical basis which would be acceptable to the modern mind."4 Singh admits that "After going through the arguments presented by both of the opposing Page #556 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirtis's Attitude Toward Omniscience parties, it is very difficult for a philosopher to take any side," yet take a side Singh. does' when he declares that The earlier theory...has got very scanty textual support," " and that the theory of omniscience as universal knowledge encompassing all substances with all their modes "is in keeping with the realistic tone and temper of the Jaina metaphysics. To the Jainas, there is no ambiguity in knowledge when. it comprehends the entire modes of all the entities, because the universe is an integrated system whose relations are equally real and objective.""" 231 While omniscience is an attribute of tirthankaras even in the earliest of Jaina texts-only the definition of the attribute has been debated-such is not case. with Buddhism, in whose earliest texts-presumably the Pali nikayas-the Buddha is nowhere described as omniscient. That this is so has been convincingly demonstrated by a number of recent scholars of the Pali canon, most notably K. N. Jayatilleke. In his Early Buddhist Theory of Knowledge, Jayatille ke makes a number of important points in this regard (1) In lists of the Buddha's epithets found in Pali literature, he is considered neither omniscient (sabannu) nor all-seeing (sabba-dassavi) "until the very latest stratum in the Pali Canon and that is even after most of the books of the Abhidhamma had been completed"; (2) There are a number of places in the nikayas where the Buddha ridicules ascription of omniscience either to a divine being, like Brahma, who is said not to know some things that the Buddha. knows, or to a human teachers, who "is criticized on the grounds that his lack of omniscience would be evident from his actions. For instance he an enters empty house and receives no alms, a dog bites him, he meets a fierce elephant, horse or buil, has to ask for the names of people, of villages or hamlets or to find his way"; (3) The Buddha specifically disclaims continuous simultaneous knowledge of all events of all times wh en, at M.I. 482, he says that "those who say that the recluse Gotama. is omniscient and all-seeing and professes to have infinite knowledge and insight. which is constantly and at all times present to him, when he walks or stands, sleeps or keeps awake-are not reporting him properly and misrepresent him. (as claiming) what is false and untrue"; (4) What the Buddha does claim. M. I. 482 and elsewhere in the nikayas, is the threefold knowledge (evijja), which consists of unlimited retrocognition of his own rebirths, unlimited clairvoyance of the ways in which other beings die and take rebirth, and knowledge of the destruction of the "inflowing impulses" (asavas),1 The threefold knowledge represents the essential contents of the Buddha's enlightenment experience, and is therefore the epistemological basis of all his doctrines, from the four noble truths on. In this sense, it is similar in structure, if not incontent, to the "omniscience as knowledge of essentials" found in Jainism and the Vedantin sarvajna of Brahman upheld by Bharati. That the Buddha did not describe his knowledge as omniscience even of a limited sort is most probably due to the connotations the term had for him-at his time it must have referred chiefly to the Page #557 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Roger Jackson type of universal omniscience he eschewed for both himself and others, whether because he found it impossible of attainment, empirically unverifiable or irrelevant to the spiritual path he propounded. The Buddha's own caution notwithstanding, not many centuries after his parinirvana the majority of his followers had come to regard him as omniscient in the broadest possible sense, and to this day the majority of orthodox Buddhists, both Theravadin and Mahayanist, believe the Buddha to possess (or to have possessed) universal omniscience. At the same time, just as in Jainism more than one possible definition of omniscience came to be offered, so too in Buddhism have there been alternative definitions. The Abhisamaya!amkara of Maitreya, for example, which spawned a huge commentarial tradition in later Indian Mahayana and among the Tibetans,14 has as three of its eight principal subjects the three kinds of omniscience (tisrah sarvajnatah). These are: (1) omniscience regarding all aspects of existence (sarvakarajnata), which is defined as "The ultimate knowledge (of the Buddha), the direct cognition, in one single moment, of all the aspects of existence, empirical and absolute"15, (2) omniscience regarding the path (margajnata), which is defined as "The intuition of the Mahayanist Saint, dominated by analytic wisdom, directly cognizing the essential nature, the non-substantiality, of the 3 different Paths to Salvation"16; and (3) omniscience regarding all empirical objects (sarvajnata), which is defined as "The knowledge of the Saint which corresponds to the Hinayanistic spiritual family and consists, in its predominant part, of the direct cognition of all the separate elements of existence as being devoid of a relation to an individual Ego or soul."17 Within the context of the dbhisamayalamkara's exposition of the path to enlightenment, the two latter types of omniscience clearly are intended as preparatory to sarvakarajnata, yet, if defined somewhat less rigorously than by later commentators, they may be seen to represent other, "limited" interpretations of omniscience that may have been current in the Buddhist world. Indeed, as Charlene McDermott notes, there is, in fact, a school of Buddhist epistemology (post-dating Maitreya) that "distinguishes (and concentrates upon) sarvajnata, or omniscience vis a' vis the direct intuition of the truths necessary for salvation, from sarva-sarvajnata(sarvakarajnata), or omniscience without restriction.18 The school she has in mind is that of Dharmak Irti. II. Dharmakirti's Attitude Toward Omniscience : Tibetan siddhanta writers classify DharmakIrti as a Yogacarin Following Reasoning. As a Yogacarin, he is a Mahayanist, and as a Mahayanist, he might be assumed to subscribe the then prevailing Mahayana interpretation of omniscience as sarvakarajnata. Yet, despite the fact that rGyaltshab glosses the subject-matter of the pramanasiddhi chapter of the Pramanavarttika as "an explanation of liberation and omniscience and the path leading to them,"19 it is by no means clear from Page #558 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirti's Attitude Toward Omniscience Dharmakirti's own words that he believed in any kind of omniscience, let alone sarvakarajnata. The crucial passage, covering verses 31-35 of the pramanasiddhi chapter of the Pramanavarttika (Shastri's edition), may be translated as follows: 233 Some (Mimamsakas) say: "An authoritative being is one who cognizes hidden objects. Because there is no (means of) accomplishing (or proving, the state of such a being), no one (can) make the effort (to accomplish that state). Dharmakirti replies): We who are apprehensive about being misled through taking as a teacher an ignoramus seek someone who is knowledgeable, so that we may make the effort to understand (what he teaches). Therefore, we should. investigate his gnosis (to determine that) it is practicable, his knowledge of the number of insects (in the world) is of no use to us. We assert that authoritative being is one who knows what is to be attained and what avoided, together with the methods (of so attaining and avoiding)-not someone who knows everything. Whether or not (a teacher) sees great distances, he should see the principles (that meet) the desires (of beings) if someone who sees great distances is an authoritative being, come, let us rely on vultures! Singh classifies Dharmakirti's view-as expressed in these verses as a definition of omniscience as knowledge of practical utility (margajnata)." That practical utility is involved is clear, what is not so certain is (a) whether Dharmaktrti is, in fact, offering a definition of omiscience in those terms or (b) if he is, how that omniscience might best be classified. (A) We must remember that the chapter from which. we have drawn our passage is concerned primarily with establishing the meaning of pramana, and most particularly with proving that the Buddha is pramana-both in the sense that all Buddha-cognitions are authoritative or valid and in the sense that for unenlightened sentient beings he is the "means" to be relied upon until they themselves have "become authoritative" (pramanabhuta ). Dharmakirti defines the "one who knows what is to be attained. and what avoided, together with the methods (of so attaining and avoiding )" (heyopadeyatattvasya sabhyupayasya vedakah) as a pramana, o an omniscient being. Omniscience may or may not, in fact, be a quality of the Buddha, but it clearly is irrelevant to his establishment as an authoritative being. (B) If, for the sake of argument, we grant with Singh that Dharmakirti perhaps is implicitly offering a more limited definition of omniscience, it is likely that the type he is defining is not margajnata-which, whatever Singh means by it, connotes in the Abhisamayalamkara tradition a Mahayana arya's cognition of the emptiness of the three possible Buddhist spiritual paths22-but sarvajnata, the Hinayana arya's cognition of the selflessness of all persons, which implies a direct understanding of what is to be avoided (self-grasping, atmagraha) and what attained (the wisdom cognizing selflessness), which is in turn equivalent to an understanding of the four noble truths.23 Page #559 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 234 Roger Jackson The above speculations notwithstanding, Dharmakirti nowhere explicitly attributes omniscience to the Buddha 24a The verses we have cited ridicule as spiri. tually useless--if not impossible -omniscience in the sense of sarvakaraji:ata, and does not indicate that the Buddha's knowledge is, e.g. sarvajnata-it is described only as pramana. Dharmakirti's definition of yogic perception (yogi pratyaksa ) is consonant with his definition of pramana; unlike the definitions found in many Mahayana traditions, it is relatively "modest"--at least to the degree that it does not entail omniscience. What it does entail is a direct, unmistaken cognition of things as they are (bhutartha ).246 This is glossed by Dharmottara as the cognition of the four noble truths attained by a practitioner when he reaches the path of seeing, 25 and is said by Vinitadeva also to include knowledge of past and future objects36 - the former would seem more in tune with the tenor of Dharma. kirti's writings. Further evidence of DharmakIrti's view of omniscience is furnished by the fact that as McDermott notes "the term 'omniscient being often figures in Dharmakirti's logical writings as a mere substitution instance in certain specimens of modes of valid reasoning.....because 'omniscient being' is representative of a class of terms which refer to concepts of entities whose existence is problematic, in the sense that existence admits of neither confirmation nor disconfirmation via ordinary experience. Hence no apodictic conclusions can be drawn concerning such entities.2. For example, at Nyayabindu III. 96., the use of "omniscient being" in a syllogism is said to lead to the fallacy of an uncertain reason.28 Although DharmakIrti (a) ridicules the spiritual value of omniscience at Pramanavarttika I.33-55, (b) gives no indication that yogic perception in any way entails omniscience and (c) cites an omniscient being as the type of problematic entity whose inclusion in a syllogism invalidates the inference, McDermott is right when she insists that Dharmakirti provides not a refutation of omniscience, but a nihil obstat; "Logic leaves open the possibility that an ompiscient being can exist in reality.29 This nihil obstat gave Dharmakirti's commentators a certain latitude, and the commentarial tradition gradually evolved to the point where, for example, the "pramanasiddhi" chapter of the Pramanavarttika was interpreted as actually containing proofs of omniscience in the broadest sense, as sarvakarajnata. We will briefly-and by no means exhaustively-trace this evolution, from DharmakIrti's direct disciple Devendrabuddhi, down through Prajnakaragupta and rGyal tshab, to some contemporary Tibetans, and we will see in the process how, the further removed commentators were from the time of Dharmakirti, the more likely they were to maintain that he didn't really mean what he said. III. Devendrabuddhi and Prajnakaragupta The only chapter of his Pramanavurttika on which Dharmak Irti composed an auto-commentary was that op svarthanumana." His direct disciple, Devendra Page #560 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirti's Attitude Toward Omniscience 235 buddhi, wrote a commentary on the remainder of the work, including the "pramanasiddhi" chapter. After destroying the first two drafts, Dharmakirti finally accepted the third as adequate, 30 so we may assume that Devendrabuddhi's glosses probably are true to his master's intention. In commenting on the Pramanavarttika I. 31-35, Devendrabuddhi remarks: "A cognition that has as its object all hidden objects is not asserted as an authority (pramana ). The gnosis ( of a wise man ), which has as its object the goals to be striven for, by beings, is an authority when, knowing that object that is to be striven for the wise man teaches it and makes (others ) relate to it."31 Knowledge of the goals to be striven for involves knowledge of what is to be attained and what is to be avoided, and "The so-called knowledge of the true nature of what is to be avoided, together with the methods (for so avoiding ), is the cognition of suffering and its origination; the so-called knowledge of the true nature of what is to be attained, together with the means (of so attaining ), is the cognition of cessation and path. Therefore, knowledge that perfectly accomplishes the goals of beings, like ( knowledge of) the four noble truths, is asserted to be authoritative; knowledge of all things is of no use to us, and it is not asserted as authoritative,"32. Devendrabuddhi further adds that any attempt to prove that there exists a cognition of hidden objects is subject to doubt, 33 but that even if there is no one who sees objects beyond the senses, this will not undermine Buddha's authoritativeness, because authoritativeness has been defined in terms of knowledge of the goals of beings.34 Devendrabuddhi, then, interprets Dharmakirti just as Dharmakirti's verses would lead us to expect him to be interpreted : as ridiculing the spiritual relevance of omniscience, and asserting as authoritative religious knowledge cognition of the four noble truths--for it is the four noble truths that provide the key to beings' liberation, and one of the keys to the authoritativeness of knowledge is that it leads to the attainment of some goal or desired object. Prajnakaragupta, who lived at least two centuries after Dharmakirti and Devendrabuddhi, is perhaps the greatest of Dharmakirti's Indian commentators; he and Devendrabuddhi are the two most respected by Tibetan tradition, for which the Pramanavarttika is a seminal text. In his Pramanavarttikalarkara, Prajnakaragupta notes that the sort of knowledge of which Dharmakirti is speaking is knowledge of the aims of beings and not knowledge of absolutely everything thams cad thams cad rig pa=sarvasarvaveda).35 He goes on to assert that just "seeing great distances" is not a sufficient criterion of omniscience.36 This remark is interesting, because in DharmakIrti and Devendrabuddhi, it is authoritativeness, not omniscience, for which seeing distances is not a sufficient criterion. Prajnakaragupta, it appears from this and other evidence in the Alamkara, is conflating omniscience and authoritativenessat least where a being who is said to know the true nature of existents is concerned. If pramana is unmistaken (avisarivadaka) knowledge with regard to objects, and one Page #561 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 236 Roger Jackson assumes that the Buddha has knoweldge in the highest degree, it follows that the Buddha should be unmistaken with regard to the ultimate and conventional patures of all existents; because he is authoritative, therefore, the Buddha must be omniscient.37 This sort of interpretation obviously rests not on what DharmakIrti has written but on what he might have said had he reflected on the implications of his definition of pramana for a full Mahayana conception of the Buddha-Prajnakaragupta, it seems, had so reflected. As a result, Dharmak Irti is seen implicitly to prove the Buddha's omniscience simply by proving his authoritativeness--this despite the ridicule Dharmakirti seems to heap on the idea of omniscience at I. 31-35. Prajnakaragupta states quite plainly that these verses do "not refute the omniscience that is knowledge of all things, 39 and the ability to see great distances is derided as insufficient for comprising omniscience--it must be accompanied by knowledge of what is to be attained and what avoided. The substitution of "authority" by "omniscience" considerably changes the tone of Dharmakfrti's argument, making it sound as if he accepts omniscience and is chiefly concerned to refute the mistaken notion that knowledge of hidden objects is both a necessary and sufficient condition for omniscience; in fact, it is necessary (for omniscience in the sense of sarvakarajnata), but not sufficient. Knowledge of what is to be attained and what avoided is both necessary and sufficient for omniscience in a limited sense, e. g., sarvajnata; it is necessary, but not sufficient, for sarvakarajnata. Prajnakaragupta, then, while recognizing that Dharmakirti does not teach universal omniscience at Pramanavarttika I. 31-35, clearly believes in it himself, and begins to find it in Dharmakirti: not only does he carefully note DharmakIrti' nihil obstat regarding the possibility of omniscience, but appears to believe that DharmakIrti, as he does, holds that omniscience is a logical corollary of the Buddha's authoritativeness. IV. The Tibetan Commentarial Tradition : The fruition of the interpretive seeds sown by Prajnakaragupta is found in the Tibetan tradition of the Pramanavarttika commentary. It is axiomatic for this tradition that omniscience-like liberation, the selflessness of the person, the subtle impermanence of sound, etc. -is a slightly hidden phenomenon (kiincid paroksa) which is logically demonstrable through proper inference.39 The tradition further assumes that the locus classicus for proofs of omniscience is the "pramanasiddhi" chapter of the pramanavarttika. As we have noted above, rGyal tshab, the 15th century dGe lugs pa scholar who wrote the first great Tibetan commentary on the Pramanavarttika, entitles his commentary on the "pramanasiddhi" chapter "An Explanation of Liberation and Omniscience and the Path that Leads to them." At the very outset of Page #562 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirtis's Attitude Toward Omniscience 237 chapter two of his rNam, grel thar lam gsal byed, he says that DharmakTrti's chapter is divided into a "forward system" that explains the causal process through which the Buddha became authoritative and a "reverse system" that explains the reason why he is authoritative. The forward system is promulgated in order to refute opponents who, arguing that "there is no proof that there is an authority that knows hidden objects,' say there is no cause generating the omniscience that comes into existence through development of a method for obtaining the omniscience of one who has become an authority."40 The reverse system is promulgated in order to refute opponents who say that "there is no cause demonstrating omniscience in such statements as "there is such omniscience because we see its results or (we see something of) similar nature."'41 In other words, according to rGyal tshab, all of Dharmaksrti's efforts in the "Pramanasiddhi" chapter are directed toward answering those who claim that omniscience is impossible : It is clear that in Gyal tshab the identification of Buddha-authority with omniscience-pointed to by Prajnakaragupta-is complete. Indeed, in commenting on I. 9, where Dharmakirti--after defining pramana-says simply that "The Blessed One is such an authority,"42 rGyal tshab says, "The Muni, the Blessed One, is an authority with regard to all conventional and ultimate objects, because he possesses a fresh, unmistaken cognition of all those (objects)."43 He follows this comment with a lengthy demonstration that even the second moment of a Buddha's omniscience fulfils the definition of pramana as a new, or fresh, cognition-largely because, although each omniscience moment embraces all past, present and future objects, their status as past, present or future changes from moment to moment, so in each moment they are cognized in a different temporal aspect, and are therefore cognized freshly.14 For Dharmakirti, whose definition of the Buddha seems to have been more modest than rGyal tshab's (or Prajnakaragupta's), the Buddha's authoritaliveness was sufficiently established by his direct cognition of spiritually efficacious truths. The fact that they were truths assured that they fulflled the criterion of unmistakeness ; the fact that they effected one's own and others' spiritual goals assured that they fulfilled the criterion of efficaciousness; and the fact that they were directly cognized assured that they fulfilled the criterion of freshness. For rGyal tshab, however, the Buddha is presumed omniscient, so he must show how this purported omniscience is in line with the definition of pramana given by Dharmakirti. Dharmakirti felt no such need, and Gyal tshab's demonstration is totally incidental to the root text of the Pramanavarttika. Be that as it may, the entire section that in Dharmakirti's verses is devoted to proving that a permanent God cannot be an authority while the Buddha can is said by rGyal tshab to "refute the existence of an omniscient being who knows how to create all knowable objects, "'45 and "to prove as omniscient the one who knows by perception how all (knowables) really exist.":46 Verses 1.31-35, which are included at the end of this section, are said to be concerned with refuting objections to Page #563 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 238 Roger Jackson omniscience by showing "The reason for seeking an omniscient one, the way of seeking him, and the identification of the omniscient one."47 Still, in actually commenting on Dharmakirti's verses. rGyal tshab could as well be talking about an authority as about an omniscient one, because his interpretation is quite in line with the apparent intention of Dharmakirti : to ridicule the spiritual relevance of such cognitions as that which knows the number of insects in the world or that which sees great distances; and to affirm the spiritual relevance of a knowledge of what is to be attained and what avoided. However, rGyal tshab believes that verses 1.31-35 are a general demonstration of the Buddha's universal omniscience, for (a) they demonstrate that the Buddha is authoritative about what is to be attained and what avoided by those who strive for freedom; (b) what is to be attained and what avoided by these who strive for freedom is nirvana and samsara, (c) everything in the universe can be subsumed under nisvana and samsara, so (d) one who is authoritative regarding what is to be attained and avoided by those who strive for freedom is authoritative regarding everything in the universe. There is, of course, no indication either in Dharmakirti's root verses or Devendrabuddhi's commentary that the heyopadeya on which the Buddha is authoritative covers everything in the universe, but, as Prajnakaragupta has pointed at, neither is it ruled out, either There is another verse in the Pramanavarttika that Gyal tshab takes as a basis for proving omniscience : that which introduces the proof of the truth of cessation (nirodhusatya), and which states simply : "(Suffering) is not eternal, because it is possible to stop its cause. "48 rGyal tshab glosses this as follows: "The aggregates of an ordinary being are not an eternal continuum unsuitable for cessation, because (the aggregates') own cause can cease through the stopping power of its contrary condition and through the incompletion of the conditions appropriate (for the aggregates' arising)."49rGyal tshab then devotes four pages to showing that implicit in this verse are proofs of both liberation and omniscience. The proof of liberation basically involves showing that the wisdom that cognizes selfless is the antidote and contrary condition to samsaric suffering, because it opposes the demonstrated cause of that suffering : craving for the self and what pertains to the self, based on the wrong view that there exists a permanent indepen. dent self of persons.50 "Omniscience" is proved as follows: (The reason, that which is a powerful destroyer, pervades ( the predicate, ) the type (of entity that exists ) in simultaneous combination with the (gradual) eradication of all destructibles of (the appropriate ) type, just as we see that a powerful fire exists in simultaneous combination with the gradual ) eradication of all kinds of destructible cold to which it is proximate the mind that realizes the reality of the four truths, ( in such as selflessness, etc.. is powerfully damaging. It is proven by reason of this statement that the mind that understands the reality of the four truths exists in simultaneous combination with the destruction of infinite damageable (mental) stains Page #564 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirti's Attitude Toward Omniscience 239 that stray from the reality of the four truths. That mind that understands the reality of the four truths in combination with a separation from infinite stains is known as omniscient. Also...there is a mind that understands the selflessness of dharmaz in combination with the destruction of infinite (instances of grasping at a self of dharmas. That mind is omniscient.61 rGyal tshab admits that this argument is incidental" to DharmakIrti's discussion, although he obviously believes that it is implicit in it. Thus, just as authoritativeness regarding what is to be attained and avoided by those who strive for freedom was taken to mean authoritativeness regarding everything in the universe, so too the understanding of selflesness is assumed necessarily to be gained in relation to every single dharma there is and one who has a "complete" understanding of selflessness to be omniscient in the most universal sense. 52 Curiously, neither rGyal tshab (nor Prajnakaragupta before him) sees as a proof of universal omniscience that section in the "pramanasiddhi" chapter that is most conducive to it, the elaborate proof of the existence of past and future lives, followed by a demonstration of the possibility of the infinite development of assorted mental qualities.53 The importance of this passage has not been lost on later dGe lugs pa and other Tibetan teachers, who cite it frequently as the proof of the possibility of omniscience.54 Dharmaksrti asserts that the proof of the Buddha's authoritativeness is his unlimited compassion, 55 but unlimited compassion only can be proved if there are many rebirths through which one can develop it. This necessitates a demonstration of the possibility of past and future lives, which hinges, in turn, on demonstrating that the mind does not have the body as its cause, but, ratber, arises as part of a homogeneous causal series. Even the proof that mind and body are substantially different is insufficient to demonstrate the possibility of infinite mental development, because even though there be past and future lives, it is entirely possible that mental qualities only can be increased to a certain point because, like jumping ability, they require repeated effort and have an unstable, physical basis. Dharmakirti argues that jumping ability is an inappropriate example for comparison, precisely because jumping ability has an unstable physical basis, the body, and does require repeated exertion. Mental qualities, on the other hand, exist in a continuum of a different sort. They arise within the context of a meditatively-induced mental stability, and therefore have a cumulative effect. Further, when developed to a certain point, they become natural, and therefore require minimalif any-exertion on the part of the meditator. Given countless lives and the increasing effortlessness that goes with an increasingly stable mental basis, there is no reason why mental qualities cannot be developed to the highest possible degree. Dharmakirti, of course, is arguing specifically for the possibility of infinitely developing compassion, but there is no reason why the argument cannot be applied to other Page #565 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 240 Roger Jackson mental qualities, including knowledge itself--and this is precisely what contemporary Tibetan scholars do. A final argument which, although neither original por unique to DharmakIrti, can be extracted from Pramanavarttika, is that omniscience is possible simply because of the nature of the mind. It is said to be defined by clarity and the apprehension of objects.86 Its clarity means that it is intrinsically free from the defilements that obstruct it. If its nature also is the apprehension of objects, it is not difficult to see how one could conclude-as do most Mahayanists-that when all possible defilements and obstacles are removed, the mind's natural clarity shines forthfully : it is omniscient. DharmakIrti, of course, explicitly declares the mind's natural freedom only from those impurities that are known as klesavarana. If there do exist subtle obstacles to full knowledge, too, Ineyavarana, then they too are adventitious, and with their removal the mind will be omniscient. In short, then, it is the common assumption of the Tibetan tradition of the Pramanavarttika interpretation that Dharmakirti. whatever he may have said of the uselessness of knowing the number of insects in the world or seeing great distances. was in fact a believer in omniscience, and in his "pramanasiddhi" chapter set out to prove omniscience, both of a limited and universal type. V. Concluding Remarks: Whatever subsequent commentators may have extracted from his writings in the way of proofs omniscience, it still remains the case that neither Dharmakirti nor his "approved" commentator, Devendrabuddhi, give any indication that the Pramanavarttika and Dharmakirti's other logical works take a stand on the possibility of omniscience any stronger than agnosticism. Indeed, DharmakIrti's dismissal of the religious value of extrasensory perception and insistence that the criterion of the Buddha's authoritativeness is his knowledge-in effect--of the four noble truths see most reasonably explicable as a conscious attempt to rest content with religious assertions that are both pragmatic and prudent. Following in the empirical, anti-speculative spirit of the Buddha of the nikayas, DharmakIrti insists that the most important quality of any teacher is his knowledge of and ability to communicate practical spiritual truths; the Buddha, because of his understanding and espousal of the four noble truths, is the greatest possible such teacher, for only he has truly understood the key to samsara and nirvana : satkayadrsti, the view that there is a self in perishable composites; and its antidote, prajna, the wisdom that realizes that there is no such self. DharmakIrti's prudence seems reasonable in the face of arguments against omniscience-adduced by the likes of Kumarila, rGyal tshab summarizes these arguments as follows: Page #566 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirti's Attitude Towards Omniscience 241 You have refuted the existence of God, but there is equal fault in your omniscient one, because if he is an authoritative person he must cognize every hidden object, and there is not any way of proving that one can become omniscient by some sort of mental development. There is no one who exerts himself in that method, because there is not the least bit of proof demonstrating that there is a cause generating (omniscience), nor does there exist anyone who strives for the sake of cognizing that. Thus, it follows that one cannot accomplish omniscience by unimaginable mantras or medicines, because it would follow that one would be (an authority) regarding all external and internal objects, and so would be omniscient regarding all knowables. It follows that sense-cognition cannot cognize all hidden phenomena, because it is powerless to penetrate solid objects. It follows that mental cognition cannot be (omniscient ), because it follows on sense-cognition. It follows that even if the mind relies on scripture, it cannot cognize all hidden phenomena, because ( scripture ) is irrelevant to the categories (of reality), and even if it is (relevant) one will not cognize (those categories) perceptually. Moreover, it follows that it is unacceptable that one cognize all (knowables) successively, because if that is the case, you must accept that there is an exhaustive limit (to phenomena ). If (all knowables are said to be) cognized simultaneously, it follows that there is a beginning to samsara, because such a cognition is completely limiting. One cannot cognize the existence of such an omniscient one through reasoning, because there are no reasons apart from words; if all persons are unmistaken regarding one word, or if a person is unmistaken regarding all (words), then it follows that those are omniscient. If it is proven by perception, then the one (so proving) must also be omniscient, for without oneslf cognizing all knowables, one cannot ascertain: "This being cognizes all knowables" (In short) there is neither a cause generating omniscience nor a reason demonstrating (its existence).7 Dharmakirti's commentarial successors, of course, believe that omniscience can be known inferentially, but DharmakIrti himself, when faced with criticisms of omniscience does not defend it, rather, he sidesteps the criticism and says that he is concerned with criteria of authoritativeness, for which what is needed is not extrasensory perception, but efficacious religious knowledge. Still, as "modest" as is Dharmakirti's criterion of religious authoritativeness, he himself is quite aware of the difficulties involved in trying to demonstrate that a particular being, the Buddha, in fact satisfactorily meets this criterion. As Mi pham, a 19th-century Tibetan rNying ma pa commentator on the Pramanavarttika, succin Page #567 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ 242 Roger Jackson ctly notes, Dharmakirti must demonstrate (A) that there is a cause for the Buddha's authoritativeness and (B) that there is a reason for asserting him to be authoritative. 68 (A) requires a demonstration that it is theoretically possible for someone to attain the unlimited development of mental qualities said to have been attained by the Buddha. (B) requires that the truths asserted by the Buddha be, in fact, true, i. e., uncontradicted by either perception or inference. Each of these, in turn, raises for Dharmakirti problems at least as intractable as those posed by omniscience, but he tackles them nonetheless, believing that both the Buddha's attainment and his assertions be rationally defensible. (A) Dharmakirti quite correctly recognizes that in order to prove that there can exist a cause for attainments such as that claimed by the Buddha, he must demonstrate the existence of past and future lives, which, in turn, hinge on the establishment of a substantial dualism of mind and body. Dharmaksrti's, arguments which we do not have the space to review here, are ingenious, and deserve further consideration than philosophers heretofore have given them, but it is not entirely evident that Dharmak Irti does not beg the question, by assurning a definition of mind (i. e.. as clear and object-apprehending) that logically precludes its origination from matter. Furthermore, even if his arguments for past and future lives be accepted, Dharmakirti still is forced in places to adduce as arguments specifically Buddhist ideas, e. g., that there exists a certain type of mental stability that is the condition for effortless, unlimited development of mental qualities; or that at death the thought of an ordinary, attached being will connect with a subsequent attached thought, while the thought of an arhat, who is detached, will have no result, and he will not take rebirth. The mind-body problem is not much closer to solution nowadays than it was in Dharmakirti's time (whatever the protestations from one camp or another that it has been either resolved or made to disappear by the expedient of declaring it meaningless); the assertion of one's own doctrines as part of a proof one's doctrines is-if not always circular-seldom very satisfactory. (B) Dharmakirti further recognizes that if the Buddha is, in fact, authoritative, then what he says about what is to be attained and what avoided --the criterion of authoritativeness-must be true. In short, the four noble truths must be true. A proof of the reality of the four noble truths-on which DharmakIrti spends most of the second half of the "pramanasiddhi" chapter-raises further interesting problems. The most pivotal, perhaps, is the complex assertion that samsaric suffering has a specific identifiable cause, i. e., self-grasping; that there is a specific antidote to the cause, i. e., the wisdom that cognizes selflessness; and that the application of the antidote will remove the cause and the suffering that results from it. Though Dharmaksrti accepts the existence of yogic perception, and believes that it is, in fact, through yogic perception that one directly verifies the four noble truths, he does not make the mistake of appealing to yogic perception (i. e.. mystical experience) as a justification of the truth of the four noble truths.59 Rather, he seeks to show Page #568 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ Dharmakirti's Attitude towards Omniscience 243 logically and empirically-as had the Buddha before him-that self-grasping is at the root of all the mental problems with which we are afflicted : greed, anger, etc., and that its elimination is the basis of ultimate and undecaying happiness. There is no question that the Buddhist analysis is psychologically astute; what is not so obvious is that a realization of the four noble truths, and especially of selflessness, can effect the sort of ontological transformation that is said to occur when one enters the path of seeing (darsanamarga) and becomes an arya, irrevocably destined for arhatship or Buddhahood. The relation between psychology and ontology is problematic, and returns us to the equally difficult problem of the nature and potential of the mind. In the final analysis, it may be that the best a Buddhist can offer someone who is sceptical regarding the Buddha's attainments and veracity is the simple invitation to "come and see" (ehi passako), still, it is to Dharmakirti's credit that he realized the philosophical problems posed by Buddhist religious doctrines and that-trying his best to eschew both superfluous claims and dogmatic assertions-he tried to resolve them, by showing that the Dharma is uncontradicted by either perception or inference. Dharmakirti may not always have been aware of his own presuppositions and not all his arguments are equally effective, but they are conscientiously made, and ultimately do credit to the critical, empirical spirit possessed--if we are to believe the nikajas-by the Buddha himself.
