A word from the Publisher
After publication of the First Edition of Jaina Bibliography in 1945, Babu Chhote Lal Jain continued to collect material for the Second Edition, visualising a modified plan of arrangement. By 1966 he had covered new material published till 1960, bringing the total reference items to about 3,000 or so. He had classified them according to his new plan which visualised publication of three volumes, the third. one being the Index. His premature death in 1966 inflicted grievous blow to the progress of the scheme, particularly the making of the collection as upto-date as possible. This revised edition is being published by Vir Sewa Mandir, a Research. Institute and Study Centre founded by the late Pandit Jugal Kishore Mukhtar, whose memory we still profoundly cherish.
This edition is a treasure house of Jain references found in books and periodicals published possibly the world over during the last 160 years or so. Had Babu Chhote Lal Jain been living he would have mentioned this figure as 180 years, enriching the Bibliography with at-least 20 more years of new survey.
Babu Chhote Lal Jain's attempt has been to name all the books (including those mentioned in A. Guerinot's three French books-Essal de Bibliographic Jaina, Repertorie d' Epigraphic Jaina Inscriptions, and Notes de Bibliographic Jaina, published between 1906 and 1909) which deal with Jainism, in whole or in part, or refer to whatever topic concerning Jainism, directly or incidentally. A brief outline of the content of the reference is also given so that the scholar or the reader becomes aware of the nature of the subject matter dealt with in the book under reference. The reader can then decide whether it would be worthwhile to obtain the original book for study or not. This in itself constitutes a great help.
To facilitate research studies in a practical way, the Bibliography has been divided into two volumes and in ten sections. Books in each section have been arranged chronologically so that some idea of the successive nature of the studies or expansion of the subject-matter is obtained.
Babu Chhote Lal Jain's vision, labours and spade-work have been the foundations on which the edifice of the Bibliography is built. So much of the contributory labour and editorial expertise in its making and its preliminary shape in print have

A WORD FROM THE PUBLISHER
been of that great Indologist, one of the modern pioneers of Jain studies in a scientific way, late Dr. A.N. Upadhye who worked hard till his last days also to edit the index cards and check up proofs mostly himself and through Shri Gokul Prasad Jain.
It is the third volume, containing Index, that will actually complete the work as planned by the author. Management of Vir Sewa Mandir hopes that the third volume will be made available soon.
It is sad to reflect that Babu Nand Lal Jain, elder brother of Babu Chhote Lal Jain, is also no longer amongst us to receive this second edition of the Bibliography. It was he who kept the project alive through all the vicissitudes.
We remember with gratitude, late Sahu Shanti Prasad Jain, whose patronage was a great support for Vir Sewa Mandir. We are thankful to his worthy and dynamic son, Shri Ashok Kumar Jain, Managing Trustee, Bharatiya Jnanpith, who is also our President, for his guidance and help towards fruition of the Bibliography Project.
It is our earnest desire and hope that Bibliography will receive wide acclaim at the hands of scholars, enlightened readers and library managements, for the unparalleled source material that it offers in a field of rare scholarly interest.

A Note (By the first publisher)
The Bharati Jaina Parisat presents before the scholarly world this volume of "Jaina Bibliography" by Mr. Chhote Lal Jain as the first number of its Jaina Bibliography Series. The vast field of Jaina Literature, Art and Archaeology, Philosophy and Religion is still mostly unexplored. The scholars of the East and the West have already made valuable researches into the Vedic and Buddhistic Literature, but unfortunately the Jaina Literature which covers a wide field of Indological studies has not been properly appreciated. This is to a great extent due to the apathy of the Jaina Community who did not care to bring the religio-cultural heritage of their forebears within the easy reach of the modern scholars. It is a happy sign nowadays that some patrons of the Jaina Culture are trying to organise cultural institutions for Jaina Studies, and there are some Jaina scholars trained in scientific methods who have already made valuable contributions to this branch of knowledge.
But a research scholar should have as his constant companion a bibliography of the subject he is interested in. There are the Vedic Bibliography, the Bibliographie Bouddique and similar bibliographies. For the benefit of the Jaina scholars, Dr. A. Guerinot, a French sa vant compiled a Jaina Bibliography, but his book covered researches upto the period of 1906. Mr. Jain has tried to supplement the treatise of Guerniot and this book covers researches till 1925. He intends to make it uptodate in another volume.

Foreword (First Edition)
About half a century ago the celebrated French Orientalist, Dr. A. Guerinot, Docteur es Letters of the University of Paris, undertook the first systematic survey of all the available printed books and articles on Jainism published in European languages. Incidentally he gave valuable information with regard to the published as well as unpublished manuscript materials on Jaina religion and philosophy available in India and abroad. His (i) Bibliographie Jaina and (ii) his Repertoire d' Epigraphie Jaina were published between 1906-1908. Since then many valuable articles and books on Jainism have been published, to mention among others, the surveys of Jaina thought and culture by two German scholars: Dr. Glasenapp and Dr. Schubring; but those books were not easily accessible to our Indian scholars. Indian periodicals and journals have continued to publish various studies on Jainism; such studies are growing in number and still remain scattered. To help the general public as well as students of Jainism to follow the main trends of Jaina studies in recent years was the laudable aspiration of Mr. Chhote Lal Jain, the Honorary General Secretary of the Vira Sasana Samgha. In spite of his multifarious duties and obligations, and even in the midst of a serious break-down in his health owing to overwork, Mr. Jain with his characteristic devotion to the sacred cause, has completed the printing of his admirable work, Jaina Bibliography, Vol. I, which brings the survey down to the end of 1925. The material for the second volume covering the last 20 years between 19251944 is also ready and will be published in due time.
Meanwhile, Mr. Chhote Lal Jain had the satisfaction of developing the plan of a centre of Jaina Culture on the occasion of the grand celebration in Calcutta commemorating the 2500th anniversary of the First Sermon delivered by Lord Mahavira. That celebration was attended not only by the Jaina community of North and Central India including Rajputana and by a few Jaina delegates from South India, but also by the leaders of Brahmanical and Buddhist religions representing the progressive thought of the majority communities of India.
The spiritual legacies of Jainism should not be confined to the Jaina community alone, but should be made available to entire humanity, especially in this age of crisis

FOREWORD
when violence threatens to ruin the entire fabric of human civilisation. The deathless principle of non-violence (ahimsa) is the noblest heritage of Jainism for which the whole mankind should ever be grateful. Even if we fail at present to draw the precise chronological relations of the earlier Tirthamkaras (promulgators of the Sacred Law), we are now definite that in the age of Lord Sri Krisna of the Mahābhārata epoch his cousin, Ariştanemi exemplified in his own life the sublime principle of ahiinsă by renouncing the world on the very eve of his wedding, when he saw that hundreds of innocent animals were about to be slaughtered simply for the entertainment of the guests at that royal wedding. That was the starting point of the realisation by Man of his kinship with the dumb animal world, differing from man only in linguistic expression, but animated by the same urge of life. So it was Jainism which for the first time bridged over the gulf between human life and animal life, and preached the basic truth of one common life pervading the whole Society. From such a profound realisation was born that creative compassion which made man look upon the dumb cattle as “Poems of Pity" in the inimitable words of Mahātmi Gāndhi, who, as we know, comes from Kathiawad-Gujarat, the home-land of Lord Nemināth (C. 1200 B.C.) and which part of India even to-day is the stronghold of Jaina religion and culture. Then came another great spiritual leader but the first systematizer of the Jaina Philosophy based on the Chatur. Yama or the four-fold principles, which were amplified by Lord Mahavir (C. 600 B.C.), a senior contemporary of Gautama Buddha.
Buddhism, no doubt, derived from Jainism its main inspiration as well as the principle of the church organization (Samgha) and the fundamental doctrine of Ahimsā or non-violence. Buddhism simply applied to the life of the individual and of the nation as well as on international plane, the primordial historical truth of Ahimsā which Jainism for the first time discovered like the law of gravitation of the living universe. If we want to keep intact the countless cultural heritages of man and if we want to develop the creative possibilities of mankind to its fullest extent we must discard the inhumane, nay, canniballistic path of war and violence as preached by the immortal preceptors of Jainism. Such a cause deserves the support and collaboration not only of all men and women of about 20 lacs of Jains scattered all over India, but also of all serious workers in the cause of human welfare, in fact, all servants of humanity in the East as well as in the West.
The dream of my esteemed friend, Mr. Chhote Lal Jain, and his colleagues, is to develop such an up-to-date centre of studies on Jaina religion and culture as would be able to give all facilities for research to men and women of all nations irrespective of caste, creed or colour. We know that some western ladies actually joined the order of Jain Nuns and the catholicity of Jainism is remarkable even in this age. Moreover, we can count upon the deepseated instinct of philanthropy which is ingrained in the Jaina community; and so we hope that the idea of developing a world centre of research or non-violence in the projected seat of Jain culture would soon mate

rialise and that all organisations in the East and the West that are striving to make World Peace a reality would come forward to help my esteemed friend, Mr. Chhote Lal Jain and his colleagues. His first volume of Bibliography will, I am sure, rouse the attention of many scholars to this much-neglected field of research, and, I am sure, the publications by the Vira Sasana Samgha that will follow will sustain the interest thus aroused. Though the work of Mr. Jain is a preliminary work of compilation, he has spared no pains to make the book as useful and attractive to the general readers as possible. I wish him all success in his noble mission.

The contributions of the Jains to the Indian Culture and sciences have been so vast that the history of India will be incomplete without a reference to them. But, of the three great religions of India-Jainism, Buddhism and Brahmanism, Jainism has been least studied and most misunderstood for want of proper knowledge of the available literature. But still it is a matter of great pleasure and encouragement that the great French scholar, Dr. A. Guerinot supplied the want to some extent by publishing his valuable volumes "Essai De Bibliographie Jaina" in 1906 and "Repertoire d'Epigraphie Jaina" in 1908. These books have been of great help to scholars and students interested in the study of Jainism.
Preface (First edition)
Much has been done in the field of Jaina study and many books have been published and numerous articles have appeared in the Indian and foreign journals, since the days of Dr. Guerinot. So it was my long desire to follow the foot-steps of the great French savant and supplement his works by bringing out two more volumes. containing all available information about Jainism from 1906. With that aim in view I went on taking down notes of references to Jains and Jainism from works on various subjects. As an humble student I had the privilege of working at the (Royal) Asiatic Society of Bengal for a number of years and this gave me the facility of using the books of the society. I have also referred to the collections of the Imperial Library and some other libraries.
In the volume which is now published, I have excluded almost all the references found in Guerinot's books mentioned above and I have taken care to bring in all references not found in his works and all those published between 1906 and 1925. Bibliography of the books, publithed since 1925 up-to-date will appear in another volume which is now under preparation.
I have to point out here, the departure I have made from the lines of Guerinot. While he has issued a separate volume for Jaina Epigraphy, I have included it under a separate section in this work. Almost all the references given in this book relate to the books written in English and other European languages.

In some passages, Hiouen-Thsang speaks of the heretic monks who go naked, that is to say of the Jains. These passages are the following:
Volume I
Pages 41. In the realm of Kapisa, one finds some heretics who go naked.
69. Among the heretics of India, there are some who have no clothes at all and remain entirely naked.
163-164. At 40 or 50 leagues to the south-east of Simhapura (Panjab) "one sees the place where the founder of the heretic sect who wears some white clothes... commenced to explain the law.

The legend of Buddha and that of Mahāvira offer great resemblances. Mahāvīra would have died in 388 B.C. This date would be equally that of the death of Buddha.

This pattavalt is borrowed from the "Ajanatimirabhaskara", a Hindi work on the Jainism, by Atmārāmaji Anandavijayaji, pontiff of the Vijaya lakha, founded from Tapa gaccha by Vijayasimhasūri.
The laic adherents of the Upakeśa gaccha call themselves Oswals. They constitute one of the principal commercial casts of Rajputana. It is said that they drew their name from the town of Osanagari, in Marwar, where is found an ancient temple of Mahāvīra.
The list of the pontiffs established by the paṭṭāvali goes back to Parivanätha and comprises the following names :
1. Subhadatta, disciple of Parsvanatha.
2. Haridatta.
3. Aryasamudra.

The ancient Canara literature. The most ancient poets: Samantabhadra, Kaviparimeşthin and Pujyapāda. Samantabhadra must be placed in the 2nd century A.D. He was born at Utkalikagrāma and was an active promoter of the Jaina religion.
Pujyapada, of his real name Devanandin, is the author of the Jainendriyakarana. He lived towards the middle of the 5th century. Other authors worthy of interest are: Śrivardhadeva (about 6th century), Ravikirti (7th century), the king Amoghavarsa Ist, who reigned from 814 to 867 and composed the Kavirajamargālamkara, precious work for the literary in formation it contains.

V. Attempt of conciliation.
1. Māgha was probably a little older than Siddharşi, because his father was the eldest of the two brothers.
2. Siddharşi was undoubtedly an old man when he finished the Upamitabhavaprapañcăkatha.
3. Mägha could be considered as the contemporary of the king Bhoja of Kanauj (862 and 876 A.D.).
4. Perhaps he composed his poem early, that which was worth his renown since his youth.

1. The poet is mentioned by Anandavardhana, who, according to the
Rajatarangini, became famous under the reign of Avantivarman of Kashmir (855-884 A.D.).
2. He was imitated by Ratnakara, the poet of the king Bälabrihaspati of
Kashmir (835-847 A.D.).
It follows from this, that Mägha must have lived towards the beginning of the 9th century, and even previously.

AINA BIBLIOGRAPHY
The patļāvali of the manuscript B stops at the 102nd pontiff, Mahendrakīrti (Samvat 1938).
The two manuscripts have a common list upto 87th pontiff (Samvat 15721581). Afterwards a gives the series of the masters belonging to the line of Nagar, and B that of the masters of the section of Chitor.
The Sarasvati gaccha is still known by the name of Kundakunda arvaya. However, the founder of it was not Kundakunda, but Māghanandin. It is why the sect is called also Nandi gaccha or Nandi amnāya. At last, it is equally designated by the terms of Balātkāra gana and of Pārijāta gaccha. It is a branch of the Mūlasangha, that is to say of the community founded by Mahāvīra himself (Digambaras).
Information about other Digambara Patļāvalis. Text and translation of the introduction to the Pattavalt A. List of the masters of the Sarasvati sect. This list includes:
1. The series common to the two Patļāvalis; 2. The section of Nāgar; 3. The section of Chitor.

INTRODUCTION
These three new pattavalis designated by the letters C, D, E, are of the same kind as the two precedents A & B, published by M. HOERNLE. The comparison between them of these five documents proves that there were two distinct traditions among the Digambaras, relating to the succession of their pontiffs.
Indeed, the pattavalis differ between them on several points.
1. The period of 683 years which followed the death of Mahavira is subdivided in a diverse manner following one or the other of the traditions. The paṭṭāvalts A and C representing one of these traditions, and the pattavalt E the second.
1083
2. The tradition, to which A & C testify, appeared to be the only authentic. It results from it that before Bhadrabahu I, the Jaina community must have been undivided. The division between the Digambaras and the Svetämbaras as brought about towards Samvat 136 or 139. Afterwards, with Maghanandin, the Digambaras were divided into four sects.
Another important difference consists in the varied designation of the residences of the Digambara pontiffs. A list indicates these diverse residence accor⚫ ding to the pattavalis A, B & D of one part, E of another part, and at last C.
4. The succession of the pontiffs is narrated in two ways: by A, B & D of one side, and by C & E of other side.
5. At last, one ascertains a difference in the dates in comparing the recensions. A and D with the recension C.
Pattavali C.
This pattavali commences by an introduction relating to the Jaina masters before the constitution of the Sarasvati sect. The chronological list, that it includes extends from Bhadrabahu II (Samvat 4) of to Subhacandra (Samvat 1450).

It is questioned whether Kharavela's inscription contains any date at all. (J.R.A.S. 1910, 242 Pp. and 824 pp.).
LUDERS, emphatically declares that it contains no date at all (List of Brahmi Inscriptions, No. 1345). According to K. P. JAYASWAL and R.D. BANERJEE, the inscription contains a date (JBORS-1917, 449 ff. and 488 ff.). But see also R.C. MAJUMDAR'S criticism on it, Ante, 1918, 223-4). BÜHLER says that the Nanaghat and Sanchi inscriptions of the Satakarni and the Häthigumpha inscription of Khåravela are exactly of the same period; he assigned these records to 200-150 B.C. Subsequently, RHLER changed his mind and declared that Gautamiputra Satakarni flourished about A,D. 124.

The Šakas are said to have conquered Ujjain and replaced its king Gardabhila. These Šakas were driven out of Ujjain by the king Vikrama who founded the era after his name. The invasion of the Saka to Ujjain was brought about by Kalakasûri who invited them to conquor the Kingdom to wreak vengeance against the king Gardabhila who tried to outrage

It makes Nāgārjuna, the famous Buddha Scholiast and founder of the Mahāyāna, a Jain. The account it gives of king Krişna of Mānakheta seems merely to be a reminiscence of the account of one of the kings of that name who ruled much later at Manyakheta (Malkhed) and who were Jains. It might be true that Vikrama patronized Jainism, but not likely that he became a Jain. In spite of doubts it appears to be certain that Kālaka süri the Jain teacher and author, and Vikramāditya, the king of Ujjain, were historical persons.

The year of Palaka is O.A.M. therefore the Mahabharat war must have taken place about 848 years before Mahavir entered Nirvana.. The date of Chandra Gupta according to Hemachandra (Paribista Parva VIII, 339) is 155 A.M.
The result is Pushyamitra is an older contemporary of Chandragupta Maurya.

The protests against the Brahmanical hierarchy and rituals so boldly preached by Mahavira and Gautama Buddha in Behar a reaction against the imposition of Brahmanical belief and institutions upon a not very willing people. Chandragupta Maurya in his later life. dissociated himself from Brahmanism and became a convert to Jainism.
P. 98. Free from Aryan influences was the Tamil country. As late as the times of the Marayas the ordinary religion of the Tamillians was a form of demonworship, and Brahminism had not made much headway among them.

the people, by his own example, how real liberation from the material entanglements should be sought and obtained; then, renounced his throne and kingdom in favour of 'Bharata’ the eldest of his one hundred sons, and went out wandering as a naked, indifferent and idiot-looking saint, in course of which he visited various places, including among others Konka (Konkan), Venka (probably the country dominated by the Venkatagiri hill, Tirupathi) and Kotaku (Coorg) in the southern Karnatic country, and was at last consumed in a big wide-spread forest fire here. But before this holy life ended in fire, his teachings had spread far and wide. His son, Bharata, was also a king of saintly character and struggled for liberation of his soul after renouncement. It was after him that this country (India) was called Bhārata Varsha.

P. 148. The middle of the 7th century coincides with the date of Jñānasambanda and Appar, and their royal disciples Ninrasir-Nedu Maran and Mahendra Varman. Those were the days when the Jains were most mercilessly persecuted both in the Pandya and the Pallava countries. The flame of passion and prejudice against the Jains was fanned with equal vigour by the Saiva Nayanars and the Vaishnava Alwars; and by the time of Sri Sankar (8th century) the Jains had ceased to be an important factor in the Tamil country. Every body conversant with Sangam literature knows to what great extent we are indebted to the Jains in that respect. The Sangam age was pre-eminently the period of the predominance of the Jains in Tamil letters. The author of Chilappatikaram was a Jain; while his brother, the Chera King i.e. Chen Kuttuvan, was Saivite. There was then perfect religious toleration.

(1) Kharavela's army-the traditional four divisions of an Indian Army.

Conclusion: King Khāravela was a Jain from his very birth. King Asoka was not born in a Buddhist family-he was converted to Buddhism.
Patriotic spirit not inspired by Jainism-He was a Hindu so far as this world was concerned, and Jain so far as the other world was concerned--religious toleration of the nature of Hinduism.

The Great rock inscription of king Khāravela on Udayagiri hill near Bhuvaneswara; it supplies an account of the first 13 years of the reign of Khāravela and benefactions conferred by him on the Jains at the same place; it is the only record of India, the object of which is to record the history of events of the reign of a monarch in chronological order. Khāravela was a Jaina; he belonged to the Cheti or the Chedi dynasty; his titles, Mahārāja and Mahāmeghavähana.
P. 72. Khāravela also called Aira; Aira is equal to Aida Aila and means a descendant of Iļa or Iļā; the Chetis or Chedis are Ailas.
Pp. 72-73. After his 15th year Khāravela was trained in State correspondence (Lekha), current accountancy (Ganana), civil law (Vava hāra), religious law (Vidhi), currency (Rūpa). The Hāthigumphā inscription is the only record which provides with some information regarding a king's childhood and early training.
Pp. 74-77. Khāravela annointed king in his 24th year and the record of his reign begins from this date : In the first year he repaired the damages to the city of Kalinga cau.ed by a cyclone; in the second year he sent a complete army con-isting of the infantry, cavalry, chariots and elephants, to the west and caused terror to the city of the Mushikas; the Kalinga army reached the home country of the Sātavāhanas (Šri Šātakarni) in the Bellary district.
Pp. 77-79. In the third year of his reign there were great rejoicings in the capital of Kalinga. The record of the fourth year is partly damaged, it opens with a reference to a city, regarded as the abode of Vidyadharas, reference to Rāshtrikas and Bhojakas, who were compelled to submit to Khāravela. In the fifth year an old canal was extended as far as the capital city of Kalinga. In the 6th year Khāravela performed Rājasūya ceremony and remitted taxes and customs duties and other concessions granted to the people. In the 7th year a son was born to Khāravela of his queen who was a princess of Vajira-ghara (old name of Wairagadha in the Chanda district of the Central Provinces). In the 8th year Kharavela invaded Magadha after conquering the hill fortesses of Goradhagiri (modern Barabar hills in the Gaya district) and Rājagriha (modern Rajgir in the Patna district of Bihar); the Greek king Demetros had to fall back on Mathura, on hearing of the approach of Khāravela. In the 9th year Khāravela gave away elephants, chariots, horses etc. and conferred certain exemptions on the Brahmana caste, a palace (Maha-vijaya) was built.
Pp. 80-82. In the 10th year Khāravela undertook the second campaign in Northern India and at the same time broke the power of the Musalas or the Telugu country. In the 11th year he destroyed the city of Pithunda, the capital of the

Musulas and at the same time he broke a league of the kings of the Tamil country. In the 12th year of his reign Khäravela harrassed the kings of the North. Western frontiers and then he entered the capital of the Sunga Empire, Pataliputra, and compelled Brihaspatimitra to submit to him; during this campaign he brought away an image of the Jina of Kalinga, which had been taken away from the country by one of the Nanda kings. Finally in the 13th year he did some pious acts on the Kumari hill (Udayagiri) where the Jina Mahavira had preached his religion; in this year king Kharavela devoted himself entirely to religious meditation and work. He caused to be compiled the text of the sevenfold Angas of the sixty-four letters.

P. 61. Literature: The partial eclipseh of Sanskrit literature is of political origin; the political dominance which the priestly caste had achieved in the Upper Gangetic Plain by 600 B.C. was not acceptable to the laity of Bihar, and the east ward drift of Brahmanic culture provoked a revolt. in Bihar the Kshatriyas asserted themselves as defacto rulers of society, Buddhism and Jainism are Kshatriya movements; their literature is Prākrit and the older parts of the Epics are Kshatriya documents; 500-150 B.C. the Kshatriya period.
P. 62. Religion: The Pantheistic Philosophy of the Upanishads which elaborated : (1) the so-called 'Brahman--Atman' (worldsoul) metaphysics and (2) the doctrine of transmigration, the foundation on which Buddhism and Jainism built.
The period 600-300 B.C. covers both the formative period of these two religions and also the pericd of their systemization in the form of condensed aphorisms (Suttas, Sütras), affected alike by Buddhists and Jains and Brahmans, by the close of this period the greater part of Buddhist and Jain cannons was probably in being.

P. 218. Religious persecution of the Jains as well as of the Buddhists started in the 7th century at the instigation of the Saiva Saints and ardent Vaishṇava devotees. The Brahmanical revival of the 9th century was equally, if not more, revolutionary in consequences. After a violent and merciless suppression of the rival Buddhistic and Jaina faiths existing in the land, it naturally advanced towards the extreme goal of exclusive orthodoxy and rigorous enforcement of the Varnaśmu amadharma'.

P. 321. The domestic life of Mrigesa (C. 420-445 A.D.) affords a striking example of religious teleration and feminine independence rare in the annals of any country but India, whose motto through all the centuries has been unity in diversity. Queen Prabhāvati was an ardent devotee of Brahmins while her royal consort leaned towards Jainism (I.A.VII p 35). Indeed this Catholic spirit of the King has been responsible for the assertion that all the early Kadambas were followers of the Vedic faith (Epi. Ind. XIV. pp. 161-166). If Mrigesa was not a Jain, his construction of a Jain temple in memory of his dead father is impossible to explain Indeed, memorials for the dead is a sure index to the religion of the departed no less than of the living.
P. 32. Harivarma (500-525 A.D.) in his early life, the son of Ravi was a follower of the Mahavira as is evident from all his grants to Jains ascetics. But he changed his faith and embraced Brahmanism between the 5th and 8th year of

his reign. The writer in the Epi. Ind. XIV. p. 165 denies in toto that the Kadambas were ever Jains at all. Had these kings been true Hindus, memorials for the dead would not have been dedicated to Jain ascetics, as they were by Mrigesa, nor would they have ever faild to celebrate the aśvamedha sacrifice as the junior Kings of Palasika boast of having done (Ep. Car, V. p. 121 BL; Epi Car. VI p. 162 Kd.).

Jainism became the dominant religion in Eastern Mysore under the Gangas.
The Kadan bas whose family God was the Jayanti Madhukeśvara were unablio resit the onset of Jainism, as they had to bow to the supreme Arhats'. Numerous sec s Jaina priests, such as the Yāpaniya, the Nirgantbas, and the Kürchakas, are found living at Palasika in. Ant VII, Pp. 36-37. Svetapatas and Aharāshtı are also mentioned (Vol. VII, Pp. 36, 37). Banavase and Palasika were crowded centres of powerful Jain monks. This dominance received a check in the days of Harivarma. In the days of the Jain supremacy the Vedic religion was not persecuted.

P. 53. King Vallabh.deva. Vallabha a title of Nedumaran. It has been hitherto thought that two other Pāndyas had this title, Jatila Parāntaka and Sri Māra, son of Varaguna I. But this is a mistake. The only reason for thinking that Jatila Parāntaka had the title is that Jinasena (783 A.C.) refers to a Sri Vallabha of the south as his contemporary in a verse (Harivamśa-Colophon 51). This verse has not been properly understood till now, at least by V.A. Smith and R. Shama Sastri. It means that in Śaka 705-783 A.C. Indrāyudha protected the North (Kanauj), (Dhruva) Srivallabh (a common Rashtrakūta title), son of Krishna (I), protected the South (Dekhan), Vatsarāja of Avanti protected the East (Malva) and Jayavaraha protected the West-- Soramandala (Surashtra). The Vallabha of this verse was therefore, a Rashtrakūta and not a Pandya at all.

Dharmamrita, a Kannada kāvya, (Saka 1037) by Nayasenadeva, a native of Mulugonda (Dharwar Dist.) The eleventh chapter of this work gives interesting information regarding Jainism in the Telugu country : Yasodhara, an Ikshvāku king of Anga started on a military campaign and came to the country of Vengi and founded there a city named Pratipalapura and made it his capital. In his old age he, along with his two eldest sons, Anantavīrya and Sridhara, made penance on the mountain of Jatasikhara Yaśodhara and Anāntavīrya attained nirvāṇa. Sridharācharya, his second, otherwise known as Akalanka was making rigorous penance on the mountain named Rishiniväsa. Yasodhara's third son, Priyabala, who was ruling at Pratipālapura died of snake bite ; he had no sons. His minister Indraprabha, approached Sridhara on the mourtain of Rishinivāsa and prevailed upon him to rule the country of Vengi till a son was born to him,

In course of time he has a son who was named Yasodhara after his own father. Śridhara appointed his son to the kingdom and went away to his former abode on the mountain of Rishiniväsa and again performing vratas, attained nirvāṇa.
The mountain Rishinivāsa got the name of 'Sriparvata' because of Sridhara's stay there for a long time and his attainment of Siddhi. Because he attained mukti under a banyān tree to the south of Sriparvata, that place was called 'Siddhavața'. The place where the four kinds of deva groups assembled to perform jñānabpājā to Śrīdhara came to be known as “Amaravati', and the place where Khecharas worshipped with mallika flowers while Sridhara was doing penance under the arjuna tree, became renowned as Mallikarjunam. The place at which vriddhas or elders of the State were said to have been saying, got the name of ‘Vriddhagiri'. Yaśodhara (son of Sridhara) was nicknamed Mundiyasuta or son of the shaven monk and hence his lineage came to be known as Mundiyavamsa.
In the lineage of these Ikshvakus was born a king called Dhanda (a Jain). He ruled the country of Vengi with Pratipālapur as his capital. One day while 'Charanarishis' who were flying in the air, king Dhanda showed them to Sanghasri, his father-in-law, Dhandapura alias Chandavolu is very near Bhattiprolu; Pratipālapura the capital of Dhanda may be identical with Bhattiprolu.
Sanskrit lexicons give the name 'Kubera' as another name for Dhanda. The Komatis, lords of the Penugonda, of the Telugu country were described in inscriptions as the descendants of Kubera, Dhanda or Vittesa. What is the meaning of Komati? No interpretation for the Telugu term 'Komati' seems sound except the one suggested by Mr. CHICKURI Virabhadrarão--these Komatis were originally the devotees of Gommateswara, the Jain divinity. Dhanda or Kubera, the ancestor of the Komatis, also was a Jain. It is but natural that the descendants of Dhanda, the Komatis, should also be Jains.
The story in the Dharmāmrita contains some historical facts suggesting that Jainism was introduced into the Telugu country and patronised by the Ikshvakus, who were lains to start with. Traditions embodied in the epigraphs confirms the emigration of the Ikshvakus to the South and their adherence to the Jainism. Jainism was flourishing in the Andhra Empire of the Sātavāhanas. From the time of the reign of Khäravela, the king of Kalinga, onwards we can trace the progress of Jainism in the Telugu country on the basis of epigraphical evidence, although it is meagre.

P. 231. Rajendra I was a Saiva; he destroyed richly endowed Jain bastis in the enemy country (Calukya). The amount of booty that fell into the hands of the Colas as a result of foreign war must have been enormous.
P. 259 & 532. Sekkilar, a Saiva, in his purāņa aimed to please and entertain the contemporary Cola monarch better than the vulgar works of heretical Jains.
P. 279. About A.D. 1227, the village of Sattamangalam had two assemblies, one of them made up of the residents of the Hindu devadana part of the village, and the other of persons in the Jaina Palliccandam; both assemblies were called ür and they cooperated in setting apart some of the village land for projects of public utility (tank, garden, etc.)-466 of 1912.
P. 338. From a record of the time of Räjarāja I, from Tiruppanmalai in the North Arcot Dist. (19 of 1890. E.I. IV. Pp. 137-140), it appears that the village Kurakampadi was an iraiyili-pallic-candam in the enjoyment (bhogam) of the Jaina temple in Tiruppanamalai. The Iļāda Chieftains ruling in the area, turned the Karpūravilai from the temple, and as a result the temple did not have enough for its expenses; the wife of the Ilada Chieftain Vira Sola drew his attention to this fact when they went together to worship in the temple, and he agreed thenceforth to cease collecting the Karpura-vilai, and another cess, called anniyayavaya-danda-irai, of which the exact nature is by no means certain.
P. 464. The mathas, the Jains pallis and the vihara were centres of learning which often owned large libraries of manuscript literature which increased in volume and diversified from generation to generation.

P. 482. As a religious institution, the South Indian Temple reaches back to a remote antiquity, and the existence of numerous temples (Kottamas) of Brahmanical, Buddhist and Jain deities is fully attested by the Sangam literature.
Pp. 485-86. The religious temper of the period, particularly in the first half of it, was by no means narrow or sectarian. Not only did the kings as a rule tolerate religions and sects other than their own, but they often patronised all persuations in equal measure. Rājarāja's sister Kundavai built three temples, one to Vişnu, another to Śiva and a third to Jaina, all in the same place (Dadapuram and her gifts to all these shrines are found recorded in the same inscription (8 of 1919).
P. 489. Kāñci. The unique position of Kāñcīpuram; one of the capital cities of the Coļa empire is very instructive in regard to the mutual relations of the rival religious systems which were competing for the royal patronage and popular favour. This city seems to have comprised three principal sections, each consecrated to a particular faith and the institutions ministering to it.---Jina-Kāñchi, popuJarly known as Tirupparuttikkunram, undoubtedly larger and more prosperous and in more direct and frequent communication with Kāñcipuram proper in the days of the Coļa empire than at the present day.
Pp. 505-508. Jainism. By the side of Hinduism, Jainism had a fair following and enjoyed the patronage of the princes and people. The pallicandam, the land of the palli (Jain temple), was a recognised category of tax-free land known to the revenue accounts of the time. Tamil literature was greatly enriched by the Jain authors.

Tiruppanmalai and Viläppäkkam (53 of 1900 of A.D. 945) Tirunarungondai, South Arcot (385 of 1929); Tirumalai near Polur, N. Arcot, and Tirumalavādi in Trichinopoly dist. (S.T.I. i, 67 and 68); Tirupparuttikkunram (Kanchipuram - 43 of 1890 and 381-382 of 1929); Kuhar, Tanjore, 288 of 1917; Maruttụvakkudi, Tanjore, 392 of 1907; all these places had Jain temples.
P. 509. In the tenth and eleventh centuries, Buddhism was less popular in the Tamil country than Jainism and in the religious controversies of the precedingt age, Buddhism suffered more damage and lost its hold on the people of the country more completely than Jainism. Many similarities in the worship of the three sects.

Arahanandin was the disciple of Ayyapati, who was the disciple of Sakalacandrasiddhänta, who was well versed in Siddhanta writings (Epi. Ind. Vol. VII. p. 191). Jinnandin was the earliest known member of another line of Jain teachers. He belonged to the Nandigaccha, and was the chief lord of the Kotimaduva (?) gana, attached to Yapaniya-Samgha. His disciple was Divākara. Diväkara's disciple was Śrimandiradeva, was the superintendent of the Katakabharaṇa-Jinälaya, to the south of Dharmapuri, modern Dharmavaram, in the Ongole taluk of the Guntur district.

P. LXVIII. Religious controversies between the Brahman and the Jains in the reign of Siddharaj of Gujarat (1094-1143), and also between the Digambara and Svetämbars in 1124; Kumud Chandra a Jain Acharya of Karnatak championed the cause of the Digambaras-he was supposed by Hemachandra. Digambaras defeated and expelled from the city (Prabandha-chintamani, Pp. 97-104) Siddharaj like his ancestors was a Shaiva though the Jains try to show him as a Jain; the opening verses of all the works written by Hemachandra during the reign of Siddharaj contain no special praise of Jain deities. Moreover, the order by which Siddharaj forbade the use of banners on Jain temples shows the reverse of a leaning to Jainism. Siddharaj patronised men of letters and was tolerant towards the Jains.
P. LXX. Kumärpäl (1143-74) was persecuted by Siddharaj but was helped by Hemachandra Acharya-Udayana, the great minister and general of Kumārpāl; Udayana's son Amrabhata built stone steps up the west face of Mount Girnar in Kathiawar, in A.D 1166.

P. LXXXI. The temple of Vastupāl and Tejpāl at Girnar, 1232-contains an inscription by the poet Someshwar, the author of Kirtimanmudi and priest of Virdhawal Vaghela, stating how it was built. The number of Jain temples erected on Girnar and palitana prior to the fifteenth century is extremely small, great majority built after that period in their zeal to 'restore and to beautify the temples dating from the thirteenth century or earlier, the Jains have inadvertently resorted to measures little short of Vandalism--the old tripple temple at Girnar has been painted in hideous colours, destroying the beauty of its sculptured ceilings, domes renovated externally with a coating of broken china, and the inscription slabs covered with white wash.

The small structure which stands on the crest of one of the two highest peaks of Idargadh is still known as Ranmal's Choki or guardroom--this was originally an elegant little Jain temple and of great antiquity which was perhaps used for military purposes by the Rajput rulers of Idar in the fourteenth and subsequent centuries. Idar is about 64 miles north-east of Ahmedabad. There are views all round the central chamber for the Tirthankaras of the Jain pantheon.
P. 61. Ahmedabad styled Shrinagar and Räjnagar in Hindu and Jain writings and inscriptions. Karnavati, like modern Ahmedabad, was also a great centre of Jain worship-Devasüri resided here ; Kumudchandra had to go to Karnavati when he went to see Devasūri.

P. 113. From the time when Vimal Sha, the Jain minister of the Solanki Rāja Bhim Deva I, erected his separate temple on Abū in 1032 to the final conquest of Gujarat by the Muslims at the end of the thirteenth century, the wealthy Jain community exercised a powerful influence on the architecture of Western Indiathe Saracen architecture of Ahmedabad is essentially derived from the Jain forms which it replaced.
P. 114. Spoilation of Hindu cities and temples for materials--the spoilation which began under the Nazims of the Delhi Sultans during the fourteenth century continued apace. When Ahmad Shah established his new capital near the city of Asawal he found in the old Hindu towns of North Gujarat sufficient material for his purpose. In the Jain masjid, in the Sultan's private mosque in the Bhadra, and in several of the earlier masjids of the city (Ah nedabad) pillars and ceilings are to be found that have been transferred bodily from the Jain temples, and many a delicately sculptured work of art scornfully cast into walls and foundations, has been brought to light during the last fifty years.
P. 169. The city of Junagadh is dominated at its northern angle by the ancient fortification know as Uparkot (or Citadel)-the large mosque which stands on the crest of the Uparkot--the large number of free-standing columns in this mosque were obtained by the spoilation of same of the beautiful Jain temples of old which adorned the brow of the sacred Girnar.

A period of growth and evolution, the style of architecture assumed two distinct forms; the one a combination of Jain' and Sarcenic elements; the other almost wholly Jain' made up a constructive form 'invented specially for the arch-heating Hindus'--the minarets and arched windows being successfully combined with the flat Hindu aisles.

P. 264. The old town of Rander on the north bank of the river Tapti, was in the first quarter in the 16th century the principal commercial centre south of Broach-according to tradition, some time during the thirteenth century (about 1225) the Navayats (Araha from Kupa) succeeded in overpowering the Jain population of Rander and became its rulers.

Jains have inadvertently resorted to measures which have been characterised by ardent antiquarians as little short of Vandalism e.g. the Triple temple of Vastupal Tejpal on Mt.

who led a separatist movement against him. This is not corroborated by historical or literary sources. In the Samavāyanga Sutra of the Swetāmbaras, it is mentioned that out of the 24 Tirthankaras 19 were married meaning Shri Mahāvira; Pārsva, Nemi, Mallinātha and Bāspūjya were unmarried.
According to the Digambaras the Śwetāmbara sect arose during a famine which occurred during the reign of Chandra Gupta Mourya. The Swetambaras admit that Mahāvira disrobed himself completely but the King of Devas nevertheless threw over his shoulders a kind of celestial mantle which went trailing behind the Divine saint for several months.
The Cautam-kesi discourse is an attempt by the Śwetāmbaras to prove their priority of origin which is untenable logically.
The author's view is that the Digambaras were prior to the Śwetāmbaras.

The intense religious feeling that underlay the new literary activity could not but be reflected in the works themselves. Thus other faiths came to be criticised rather ruthlessly by the Virasaivas and in their turn by Jaina poets like Brahmaśiva and Vșttavilāsa. But this animosity was rather an exception than a rule. Vira Ballāla patronised all poets without any distinction of caste or creed. Chandramauli who was a Jaina and made grants to Gommateśvara yet patronised the Brahmana poet Rudrabhatta, the author of Jagannatha Vijaya.
P. 425. A characteristic of the literature of the period was a general attempt at purity and simplicity of diction. Nayasena in his Dhasmāmsta condemns the indiscriminate use of Sanskrit and compares it to a mixture of oil and ghee, How
er, a Jaina and Brahmana poets usually follow the old Champu style but manage at the same time to maintain a rimarkable lucidity of thought and ease of expression.

JAINA BIBLIOGRAPHY
Dr. SALETORE in his preface says-'far from being a bundle of metaphysical beliefs, Jainism was a faith that added in a large measure to the material prosperity of the land'. Jainism in the South rose to unrivalled brilliance not only in the fields of letters, arts and religion but in the domain of politics as well. The Ganga dynasty was established under Jain auspices in the 2nd century A.D. especially through the efforts of Acarya Simhanandi. Many of the later Ganga princes were fervent Jainas. By the time the Ganga power bagan to diminish, Jainism came under the aegis of two royal families, Rástrakūtas and Kadambas. Jainism received a good deal of patronage from the Western Cälukyas; the Hoysala Kingdom itself was a second supreme creation of Jain wisdom. The various Jaina centres of the south, possessed some of the most superbe intellectual prodigies India had ever produced. Jainism, especially under the Hoysala patronage added a good deal of the architectural and artistic splendour of India. Provincial heads from the families of the Santaras, Kongalvas, Cangalvas etc. were patrons of Jainism. The greatest claim of Jainism at the hands of posterity is that it gave to India men who turned it into a philosophy of action, and clearly showed the importance of the fact that ahimsa, which was the keynote of their great faith, instead of being an obstacle in the path of their country's liberation, was really an adjunct without which no freedom could be effected either in the field of religion or in that of politics. Many eminent ladies came forth as the defenders of the faith. The instance of the four gifts of learning, food, medicine and shelter-the primary needs of humanity-on the part of the richer sections of the people must have had the inevitable effect of drawing to the Jain fold the larger sections of the populace among whom Jainism had made rapid stridies from the ninth onward till the fourteenth century A.D. Various cultural centres in and around KarnaReferences to Jainism are detected in Tamil works of the Sangham age; establishment of the Dravida Sangha. In the Andhra territory Jainism can be traced back to the pre-Mauryan days. One of the best claims of Jainism at the hands of posterity is that it contributed to the literatures of all the three provincesKarnataka, the Tamil land, and Andhradesa. The Jainas fostered the principle of toleration more sincerely and at the same time successfully than any other community in India. Saivas and Vaisnavas, especially in the Tamil land ill-treated. the Jainas and the claimax of this ill-treatment was reached in the days of Tiruj ñanasambandhar. Jainism suffered a set back in the Deccan almost on the eve of the foundation of the Empire of Vijayanagara. Queen Bhimadevi of Vijayanagara,

G. N. SALETORE-The Southern Asmakas. (Jain Ant. Vol. VI ; No. II ; Arrah, 1940 ; Pp. 51-66).
The Asmakas were an ancient community having settlements both in the Uttaräpatha and the Dakşināpatha. It is more or less certain that their capitals in both these territories were named Podanapura.
The Southern Asmaka. Khāravel invaded Asokanagara, The Sapädalaksa country was no other than the southern Asmaka. Podana was the capital of Asmaka. Aśmaka, Sapädalaksa and Barleasa were different names of Aśmaka. Podana has been immortalised in the annals of the Jains. Podan has been identified with modern Bodhan a village lying in Lat. 18 40' and Long. 77 53, in the Nizamabad district of H.E. 4 the Nizam's Dominions.

A. B. Kerra-The Greek kingdoms and Indian Literature. (D.R. BHANDARKAR Volume, Ind. Res. Ins., Calcutta, 1940).
Pp. 219 and 226. An interesting light has been cast by Dr. Tarn in his treatise on the Greeks in Bactria and India. According to JUSTIN the Jains have a tradition which makes the accession of Candragupta 312 or 313 B.c. The source of JUSTIN was some Greek in India who read Jain literature, unless indeed he could read Sanskrit and Prākrit for himself. JUSTIN may have been not a Greek of Parthia who lived for a time in India, but rather a Greek of India settling in a Parthian city. It must be pointed out that this alleged knowledge of Jain literature rests on the most insufficient evidence; one does not need be able to read Sanskrit or Prākrit to know that the Jain had a certain date for Candragupta,

P. 161. Duel with Jarasadha : The Jain account agrees with that of Mahābhārata. The Jain Puräņas give a different version of the way in which Jarasandha had met his death. The two sources agree that Jarasandha was a contemporary and a foe of Krşna (Trişaşthisalakāpuruşacarita, by Hemacandra, VIII, 8 p. 126 and Harivamsa Purana by Jinasenācārya p. 537).

Baij Nath Puri-Jain Religious orders in the Kushana Period. (Journal of Indian History XX, Pt. I, pp. 85-92, Madras, 1941).
Points out that in the Kushāna Period, a number of Jain religious orders where flourishing side by side in Mathura. These schools were popularly known as ganas and were divided on the lines of teachers who were known through their respective Kulas. The teachers grouped into a Kula were branched off into Sakhas or branches. The study is based on epigraphic records.
*2. Foot note-The history of the Indian religion contains clear evidence of the Jain and Bhagavat sects being the off shoots of a single sect started by way of protest against the doctrine that the highest goal of man was to secure happiness in this world and in the Swarga ruled over by Indra by the performance of animal sacrifices. It is therefore desirable for the Hindu writers to shake off their prejudice that the Jain accounts are only perverted versions of stories borrowed from the Hindu literature,

St. 52, the Guptas are said to have ruled for 221 years; thereafter Kalkirāja ruled for 42 years, he in turn was succeeded by Ajitanjaya, who ruled from Indrapurā (Indore). ibid Chap. 60 St. 491-492. Gunabhadra in his Uttarpurānas (898 A. C.) Ch. 77 St. 35 says Kalkirāja appeared in the year 1000 after Vira Nirvana, in Pataliputra, as the son of King Siśupäla; he was also known as Caturmukha; he ruled for 40 years; his son was Ajitanjaya (ibid. ch. 76. St. 397-401 & 428). Jinasena places Kalkirāja in 528 B, C. (Hari, Ch, 60 st. 551) Toramane identified with Kalkirāja, who was the son of Siśupāla. The Jain chronicles would not have failed to allude to his Hun origin, if he had been a Hun.
P. 40. Kalirāja is said to have oppressed the people, but the only instance of his oppression, given by Guņabhadra Uttarapuräņa (Ch. 77 St. 35, Ch. 76 St. 397401 & 428), in his refusal to exempt Jain monks from taxes.

T. G. ARAVAMUTHAN—Some Survivals of the Harappa Culture. (N.I.A. Vol. 4. 1941-42).
Pp. 298-99. Cult-object between Adorants : The formula relates to the iconic presentation of an object that has been adopted as the centre of a cult. The cult-object--be it a divinity or an object such as a tree, or a symbol such as a wheel, is prominently placed in the middle of a composition and it is flanked on either side by a beast or a man rendering veneration to it. A fine pannel (fig. 10) from an early Jain monument is an excellent illustration of this formula, which may be called that of 'cult-object between adorants. The goddess Sri or Lakshmi, stands as the central figure in a composition in which lotus buds and blossoms, elephants raising well-filled vessels with their trunks and emptying on the Goddess, and birds plucking at lotus buds, are presented in pairs but disposed symmetrically on either side of the Goddess.
P. 331. Nandipada over Circle : The Nandipada is repeated four times around a circle (fg. 16: 10). The repetition connotes a 'strengthening' or an emphasising of the notion for which the Circle stands. It has been shown that the Circle is a substitute for the lotus or the wheel and that either of them may represent Brahman, the Buddha, the Jina- whatever name the sectaries may employ. We may therefore expect a representation of one of these to replace the circle or to occur enclosed in it. The expectation is fulfilled, in a place of Jain sculpture four nandipadas surrounded a circle (Fig. 16 : 13) in which is depicted the Jina.
P. 335. The deity on the Head : Jain iconography knows of a few images which carry smaller images on the head, -the smaller ones being invariably seated. Ambika-devī, the Yaksi, or the Sāsana.Devata of Neminātha, the twenty second Tirthamkara, is represented both in the standing and the sitting postures and a seated Jina is poised on her head, or is suspended just alone.

He composed incriptions (Ch. R. Patna 179, S. 1119 and TK. 45 of S. 1119) and his raíodharacarite was completed in 1209 A.D. in the reign of Vira Ballala. His other work Anantanātha Purana was finished in . A.D. It was published at the Säntiśvara basadi in front of the Vijaya Pārśva basadi at Sarasamudra. Its first verse commenced at Anantanātha basadi at Gandarādityana Polal. In the court of Narasimha, Janna was a dandanāyaka, a mantrin as well as a poet.

As. Dept. 1923) we know that when one thousand years of the Dussama age had elapsed there was born a Kalki in Pataliputra in a Mahämägha year. Now a thousand years from 525 B.C. leads us to A.D. 475.

1271 The previous year A.D. 474 was a Mahāmāgha year. Now a Kalki was born according to Jaina tradition 1000 years earlier in (1000-473, or) 527 B c. imme. diately after Mahāvīra's Nirvana. As Kalki lived upto 457 or 455 B.C. evidently he introduced the Kyta era about 458 s.c. and then departed from this world. Thus Jaina tradition also supports the epoch of the Ksla era introduced by Kalki to be about 458 BC.

(2) In the hymn on Tirunagai-Käräṇam (vi. 22) v. 10 "6 intelligent mind, do not take for truth the falsehood of the hardy Jainas who have abandoned their homes or the falsehood of the boastful minded Kundar".
P. 37. The word Samaṇar, Amanar and Kundar in Tamil are used to denote Jainas (saints).
Nambi Andar Nambi (end of 10th century A.D.) in whose works (Aludaiya Pillaiyar Tirukkalampakam, V. 8 and Tiruvandadi V. 28) are found frequent references to the Kundar.
Jñanasambandar (7th century A.D.) in the hymn on Kilait Tirukkäṭṭup-palli (T, 5, 10) refers to Kundar as those who cover their bodies with clothes coloured with bright red ochre and eat their meal in the forenoon.

Namaṇanandi, Karumavira, Darumasena and the rest of them, who stand erect with no clothes on their bodies like some foul smelling bullock, and mutter (unmeaning formulae sounding like) namana-nanana-nananonam?
Pp. 33-42. Jains also in their turn reciprocated the hatred directed towards them-Sambandar refers to the Jain's intolerance of Saivas in rather strong terms; in III 108, V. 8 (Madura) he says-the Jains who would not ever stand in the direction of the wind that has touched the bodies of persons wearing the holy ashes (Śaivas).
Sambandar defeated the Jains in the court of the Pandyan ruler of Madura on the banks of the Vaigai river (see-Sakkiya's Sambandar Puranam V. 901-103)Appar was a Jain and turned Saiva.

Some of the fine monuments of the Jainas still preserved e.g., Indra Sabhā and Jayamalla Sabhä at Ellora, under the Chālukya's patronage, the splendid monolithic temple at Kalugamalai in the Pandyan kingdom. The inscriptions at Lakkundi mention the name of Dāna Chintamani Attiyabbe, a daughter of Mallapa or Mallapayya, the general of Taila II; she flooded the Western Chalukya territory with 1,500 Jain temples; the Ajita Purāna in Kannada of Ranna was composed at her instance.

From the references in Dipavansa and Mahävansa, the ancient works of Ceylon we can identify the ruins and relics as belonging to Jainism. The Mahāvansa indicates the existence of Jainism in Ceylon before the advent of Buddhism in that country. King Udayan (496 B.C.) probably founded the city of Anuradhāpur. Udayan, a Sisunag, was a Jain, built several Jain temples and Stupa in Anuradhapur. A house for Nigantha Jotyia ; the Nigantha Giri; a Chapel for the Nigantha Kumbandha. King Pandukabhaya rendered great services for the cause of Niganthas ; he founded the city of Anurādhāpur and made it his capital in 437 B.a. King Abhaya built the Mahävihar (Abhayagiri Vihar) on the place of the Arama of Nigantha Giri. To the west of Abhayagiri Stupa at a distance of two or three furlongs, there are two stone idols in Padmāsan ; the bigger idol is nude; the other has one or two slight lines on the chest possibly carved afterwards to make it a Buddhist idol. The Veddas, the aboriginis of Ceylon identified with the Vidyadharas of the Jains.

P. 71. The ideology of the Upanishads did not permeate to marked extent to the masses and the intellectual separation between the creative minority and the majority became more marked. In course of time this led to new movements-a powerful wave of materialistic philosophy, agnosticism, atheism but of this again grew Buddhism and Jainism.
Pp. 92-94. Mahavira and Buddha: Caste-Both Jainism and Buddhism were break-aways from the Vedic religion and its offshoots, though in a they had grown out of it. They deny the authority of the Vedas and, most fundamental of all matters, they deny or say nothing about the existence of a first cause. Both lay emphasis on non-violence and build up organization of celibate monks and priests. There is certain realism and rationalism in their approach; One of the fundamental dectrines of Jainism is that truth is relative to our standpoints. It is a rigorous ethical and non-transcendental system laying a special emphasis on ascetic aspect of life and thought.
Mahavira, a Kshatriya (warrior class) was the founder of Jainism, a rebel against the parent religion and in many ways utterly different from it, was tolerant to caste and adopted itself to it; and so it survives and continues in India, almost as an offshoot of Hinduism.
P. 122. There was an ascetic aspect of life in India, as there was later in Greece; that aspect was to grow more important under the influence of Jainism and Buddhism, but even so it did not change materially the background of life.

Pp. 143-44. The idea of non-violence, already present in the Vedas and Upanishads, was emphasized by Buddhism and even more so by Jainism. There was a new respect for life and a kindness to animals. And always behind all this was the endeavour to lead the good life, the higher life. Effect of Buddha's teaching being pessimism towards life, so was the view of Jainism,
National background of each country moulded the religion according to each shape--for instance, India was influenced by Jainism which was the most otherworldly and life- negating of all doctrines and philosophies. The emphasis of Jainism and Buddhism on non-violence led to the tilling of the soil being considered a lowly occupation, for it often resulted in the destruction of animal life; Unconsciously this led to the degradation of vast numbers of tillers of the soil--but something inherent in the caste system was responsible for this degradation.

Pp. 44-46. Jainism : Jainism occupies important place in the studies of our cultural history; lack of good translations of Agamas and lesser interest taken by European scholars, are the main reasons for our inadequate attention to the religion; the Agamas and their commentaries were recast and revised about the sixth century A. C. but they contain materials of a much early date; traditionally there were three recensions of the Agamas but so far no attempt is made to separate the strata chronologically. Jaina Myths and legends derived from the Indian traditions and hence a comparative study of the Buddhist, Jain and Brahmanic versions is likely to throw light on the social, political and cultural life of the Indians of the early Christian eras.
Jainism did not spread beyond Kausambi, Thaneswara and Saket till the days or Samprati, the grandson of Asoka, when it spread to Sindhu-Sauvira, Surashtra in the west, and to Andhra and Dravida in the south; but never outside the borders of India. Jainism developed a lay-society of its owo; our University should create an interest amongst our students, towards Jain literature.

Magga (way) and Maggaphal (fruit of the way) are the two things mentioned in Jainism according to Achārya Kunkunda. Magga means a remedy for liberation and its fruit is complete contentment. The ancient name of Jainism was Marga. The word 'Magga', (Sanskrit Marga) appears to have been in use in several countries of the Asiatic continent. In Persian language 'Maga' used in the sense of a priest. In Canarese also the word is used. Monk (Christian Catholic priest) and Manga are its two different forms. The Saraswat Brahmanas of India name their god of worship as Mangesha. The Burmans use the word Manga in the sense of brother. Makala in Dravidian language means children. According to the Bhavisya Purānā Bhojakas and Magas were one and had many practices of the Jain saints. Makalastill an advanced community in the Dravidian province has been described as ordinary men and followers of Jainism by Jain Rāmāyaṇa.
Mongi-Tungi -'Mongi' means sacred or belonging to the sacred religion ‘Magga' and 'Tungi' means a mount or mountain. The joint word 'Mongi Tungi' would mean a sacred mount of the Jains. According to the Jains Rāmachandra attained liberation from this mount.
In view of the facts Marge was the name by which Jainism was pre-eminently known until at least the time of Shri Rāmachandra.

The period of the Rāshțraküțas was probably the most flourishing period in the history of Jainism in the Deccan. Soon after it Jainism received a set-back owing to rapid spread of the new lingāyat sect. The literary activity of the Jains was also remarkable in this age, and they seem to have taken an active part in the education of the masses. Before the beginning of the alphabet proper the children in the Deccan recite the Jain formula on namassiddhebhyah. Grants were made to the Jains by the Kadambas, the Chālukyas, the Gangas and the Rāstrakūtas who were patrons of Jainism. Many of the feudataries and officers of the Rāshțrakūtas were also Jains. Jain Literature of the period discussed.

Parallel to the Vedic conception of the fourteen 'Manu's the Jaina legends give the descriptions of fourteen Kulakaras.

Pp. 147-49. In the earliest times, Jainism and Buddhism did not use images for worship. The first proof of the existence of Jainism (at Mathura) is the inscription .. on the āyāgapța of the women Amohini (fig. 29). These āyāgapatas wire relief
plaques made of stone, decorating a stūpa all round. A number of these have been found again by Vincent SMITH at Kankāli Tilā near Mathura, together with many other Jainistic relics (Ar. Sur. Ind. N. Im. Se. vol. xx, 1901). Several of these : ayagapaļas bear a votary inscription mentioning the name of the donor.
The āyāgapața dedicated by Amohini is the only dated āyāgapata known uptil now. It shows a female figure, accompanied by some servants. According to BACHHOFER (Die fruhindische Plastik, vol. II, pl. 74 and the description there) she represents the goddess Aryavati.

than Buddhists, the Chinese version of the Kalpanamandiņkā tells us about Kanişka's journey from the Basin of the Ganges back to the North-West India, viz. that the great emperor went through a wide flat country where he saw a beautiful caitya of the Jains, to which he paid homage as the thought it to be a Buddhist stupa. KoNow supposed that this caitya was possibly the same as the one of which the remains have been found at Kankali Tilā.

Pp. 150-52. Buddhism and Jainism go together in their expression of art. Both had similar symbols, stupas, decorations, architecture, artistic motives-because both drew on the national art of India and employed the same artists (Ep. Ind. vol. 2, 1894. Pp. 311-23).

Pp. 158-59. A relief (text-fig. 10) found by FUHRER at Kankali Tila- accor ding to FUHRER it shows Vardhamäna holding a devotional conversation with a king; it is not Jainistic; it represents meeting of Buddha with king Suddhodana.
P. 158. Jina images always completely naked with (often) the Srivatsasymbol on the chest.
P. 167. Neither the oldest Jina figures on the ayagapatas show the unisa, nor do the images of the Kusana period, have it; before the Guptas the unisa disting uishes the Buddha from the Jina.
P. 219. Dhyana-mudra usual for Jina images.
P. 221. In the centre of the space between the two lions (on the base) a scene is represented, showing a number of adorants on either side of a small column carrying the Cakra symbol-this is a special characteristic of Jainistic images.
Generally Jainism more tenacious to tradition, becaue it has not been exposed to foreign and strange influences it remained conservative and therefore did not acquire the numerous followers among foreign nations that could have made it a

Cālukya monarchs and their subjects record the construction of basadis and temples and register the gift of lands and money for their maintenance. Jainism never a state religion. Some of the Eastern Cālukya kings, especially, Amma II, Rājamahendra, showed considerable favour to the Jaina monks ; but none, with the possible exception of Vimalāditya, became a śrāvaka and embraced the faith of Mahāvīra.
P. 291. There were several Jain monastic establishments in the country. The Sarvaiokāśraya-Finālaya, and the Kaļakābharaṇa-finalaya, both built during the reign of Amma II (Ep. Ind. IX, p. 49) were the most important Jaina monasteries ; the former belonged to Addakali-gaccha of Valahärigana, and in the sattralaya attached to it arrangements were made for feeding the śramanas of all the four castes. The latter was built for the benefit of the monks of the Yapaniya Sangha to enable the members of the community to practise their vows undisturbed.
P. 293. Literature: Three great Kannada writers, Ponna, Pampa and Nāgavarma I, closely associated with Kamma-nadu which was situated in the neighbourhood of the Rastrakuta dominions ; the first composed his sāntipurāna at the instance of two brahman noblemen Ponnamayya and Mallapayya of Punganur and dedicated to their common guru, Jinendra Candra. The other two were laina brahmins born in Vengipalu ie, Vangipuram in the Narasaraopet Tälug in the present Guntur district. Pampa was the author of Vikramārjuna-Vijaya and Adipurāna, the greatest poems in the Kannada language. Nāgavarma composed Chandombudhi, a treatise on Kannada prosody, and Kadambari an adaptation in Kannada of Bana's great Sanskrit romance. Though these authors wrote in Kannada, their works, especially those of Pampa, exercised considerable influence over the early Telugu writers and stimulated them to essay poezical compositions in their own language.

A. L. BASHAM-History and Doctrines of the Ajivikas, London, 1951.
Foreword by Dr. L.D. BARNET-Dissent from the Vedic systems of sacrifice and Brahmanic retualism arose and created new preachers. Among the aristocratic clans of the North two noblemen created great churches; they were Gautama Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, and Mahāvira Vardhamāna, whom the Jains revere as their twenty-fourth Tirthankara. Besides these the Ājivikas also played a part of some importance.
Preface-refutation of HOERNLE's theory of taking Ājivika as Digambara Jain.
P. 4. The Ājivikas asceticism often terminated, like that of the Jainas, in death by starvation.
P. 6. The three heterodox sects, Buddhism, Jainism and Ajīvikism had much in common, all three rejected the sacrificial polytheism of the Aryans and the monistic theories of the Upanisadic mystics; they represent a recognition of the rule of natural law in the universe like that of their approximate contemporaries, the natural philosophers of Gonia. The system of the Ājivikas was based on the principle of Niyati as the only determining factor in the universe.
P. 8. Makhali Gosāla, before his association with Mahāvira, was a mankha (a bard).
Pp. 11, 16. Nigantha Nätaputta and his doctrine as contained in the Sâmaññaphala sutta of the Digha Nikāya : "A nigantha is surrounded by the barrier of fourfold restraint How is he surrounded? He practises restraint with regard to water, he avoids all sin, by avoiding sin his sins are washed away, and he is filled with the sense of all sins avoided-So surrounded by the barrier of fourfold restraint his mind is perfected, controlled, and firm.
P. 17. The teaching ascribed to Nigantha Nātaputta is very obscure, but as JACOBI has pointed out, while it is not an accurate description of the Jaina creed it contains nothing alien to it. Nigantha identified with Vardhamana Mahävira, the twenty-fourth Tirthankara of Jainism.
P. 18. According to Mahābodhi Jataka (V), King Brahmadatta of Benares had among others a Khattavijjavädi (Nigantha) Councillor; Nigantha, in fact the apostle of ahimsa, is here the teacher of a Macchivellian doctrine, resembling the antinomianism of Purana as described in the Sutta passage (quoted above).

P, 21. In the Tibetan version of the Samañña-phala Sutta, quoted by RockHILL (the life of Buddha) 'Nirgrantha, son of Djnati' retains his authentic teaching of Karma wiped out by penance.
P. 22. ROCKHILL also quotes two Chinese versions of the Sutta. In the first of these, the translation of which is dated A.D. 412-13, we find the Nirgrantha Jñātriputra claims omniscience, as did the historical Mahāvira. The second translation is a little earlier A.D. 381-395. Here Nirgrantha maintains that all is the effect of Karma.
P. 27. Makkhali Gosāla considered himself to be the twenty-fourth Tirtbankara. Ascetics referred to as Ājivikas existed before their greatest leader, Makkhali Gosāla.
P. 31. Gosāla and Mahāvīra-their collaboration in asceticism and parting for sixteen years.
P. 34. The most valuable source for the reconstruction of the story of the life of Gosāla Mankhaliputta and his works is the Jaina Bhagavati Sūtra and Dr. BASHAM has quoted extensively from it.
Pp. 35-37. Birth of Makkhali Gosāla according to the Bhagavati Sūlra.
Pp. 39-41. Meeting of Gosāla with Mahavira.
Pp. 41-47. Peregrinations of the two Ascetics (Mahāvīra and Gosāla).
P. 52. Gosāla abondoned speech; Gosala's silence is confirmed by the Tamil text Nilakeci, which states that the defied Markali (Makkhali) never speaks for fear of injuring living creatures.
P. 57. Saccaka Niganthaputta converted by Buddha.
P. 66. Gosāla lived as an ascetic for twenty-four years, the first six of which were spent with Mahāvira and the last sixteen as a pseudjina at Savatthi.
P. 74. Buddha died C. 483 B.C., Gosāla in 484 B.c. and Mahāvīra in 468-67 B.C., according to JACOBI, CHARPENTIER and BASHAM.
Pp. 77-79. Svetāmbara tradition places the date of Mahāvīra's nirvāṇa in the year 470 before Vikram, or 528 B.C., while the Digambara traditional date is 605 before Vikram. Pāli scriptures record the death of Mahāvira of Nigantha Nātaputta

taking place at Pāvā during the Buddha's life time. HOERNLE suggests 484 B.c. for the death of Mahāvira & 482 B.c, for the Buddha. Gosāla called himself Tisthankara, Jina, Arhant, Kevalin and Aptan.
P. 80. Samyutta Nikāya (i, p. 66) mentions Niganthu ; the Jaina Tamil poem Nilakeci mentions Pūraņa, the leader of the Ajivikas.
P. 83. Purana, like Makkhali, was habitually naked and in the Diuyāvadana (Ed. Cowell & Niel p. 165) ; he is described as a nirgrantha, clothed in the garment of righteousness (dharma-sala-praticchanna) ; the phrase is obviously an euphemism for a state of total nudity.
P. 84. Pūrana & Makkhali taught the same doctrine.
P. 87. Divyāeadana (p. 865) mentions Nirgrantha.
P. 88. Death by ritual suicide was the common end of the Jaina ascetic and similar suicides by Ajivikas.
Pp. 96-97. In Sutta-nipata (381), Ajivikas are clearly distinguished from Niganthas but the Sandaka Sutta (Majjh, i, P. 513) seems to embrance all six of the heretical teachers, including the great leader of the Niganthas, Nigantha Nātaputta or Mahāvīra in the general category of Ajīvikas. In the Dhammapada Commentary Buddha-ghoșa describes the ascetic with unsettled mind, who may start as an acelaka, than become an Ajīvika, than a Nigantha and finally a Tāpasa. The Divya-vadāna, in the story of Asoka, seems to use the terms Ajivaka & Nirgrantha synonymously.
P. 101. Wandering Sophists and ascetics played the biggest part in the development of heretical sanghas of Buddhism, Jainism, and Ajivikism.
P. 106.
The early Ājivikas, like the Jainas, extracted the hair by the roots.
P. 107. The ascetics called, Ājivika appear usually to have lived in a state of nakedness; Representations of naked ascetics occur occasionally in Buddhist art, but in most cases there is no evidence that these are Ājivikas and not members of the Digambara Jaina order. A figure in one of the Ajantā frescos has been identified by FOUCHER, as Pūrana Kassapa (L'Art Greco-Bouddhique, Vol. II, p. 264 also Journal Asiatic 1909, Pp. 21—3) and this is completely naked. Certain sculptures of the Gāndhāra school, depicting the Buddha's parinirvana, also show a naked ascetic, who seems to be the Ajivika in the act of informing the bhikkus Mahākassapa of the great event (Plate III) - Foucher, L'Art Greco-Bouddhique, Vol. i.

Pp. 108-109. Mahāvīra founded his order upon a looser group of ascetics, wearing clothing and by no means strict in their chastity, who looked back to the Shadomy Pāršva Natha, the 23rd Tirthakara.
Jainism in its later form, was but a development of the older proto-Jainism of Pārśva. The early Jaina monk, although called acela, was not normally completely nude, but wore a loin.cloth (Acāranga Sutra i, 7, 7, i).
The Ājivika seems to have gone further in his nudity than the early Jaina.
Neither Mahāvīra nor Gosāla was the originator of the cult of nudity, which must have existed before either reformer commenced his ministry. The typical Ajivika of the early period was completely naked and armed with a bamboo

P. iii. Naccinārkkiņiyar, the fourteenth century commentator on the early Tamil grammar Tolakappiyam, quotes as an example an unidentified verse which mentions the existence of ascetics who perform penances in tāli or funerary urns. Dr. KR. SRINIVASAN, who has noticed this reference, states categorically that these ascetics were Ajivikas, who were identical with Jainas (Ancient India ii, p. 9).
P. 112. Chinese and Japanese Buddhist literature classes the Ashibikas (i.e. Ajivikas) with the Nikendabtras or Nirgrānthas as practising severe penance. (SUGIURA, Hindu Logic as pre erved in China and Japan, p. 16, quoting Hyaku-rom So, i, 22. The passage has been noticed by HOERNLE (ERE, i, p. 269). Who identifies the Ashibikas with the Digambara Jains).
Pp. 118-119. Detailed description of the begging customs of naked mendicants in the Mahāsaccaka Sutta of the Majjihima Nikäyu-in it the Buddha asks the Nigantba Saccaka Aggivesana how the Ajivikas maintain themselves; he replies-- giving full details (CHAlmer's translation, i, p. 238). See also pre-Buddhist Indian Philosophy pp. 167-8 by BARUA. In another passage of the Majjihima (i. p. 77) the same words are put into the mouth of the Buddha himself, when he describes his own ascetic conduct before his enlightenment ; the description of ascetic begging practice as given here, applies to the nude class of accelakas, or naked ascetic which included Ajīvikas & Nirgranthas or Jainas.
P. 123. The Ājivikas, like the Buddhists and Jainas were believers in Ahimsā and usually vegetarians; both the Buddha and Mahavira are said to have eaten meat at least once in the course of their careers as religious leaders. (Mahāvira recovered from his illness, after eating the flesh of a cockeral killed by a catBhagawati Sutra XV. Su. 557, fols. 985-6).

Madhavacandra (a Southern Digambara) commentator to Namicandra's Trilokasāra, disagrees with Viranandi and Vattakera, and, like the Aupapātika Sūtra, forecasts an even more exalted destiny for Ajivika ascetics--i.e. they will reach Acyutakalpa, the last stage before Nirvāņa. This statement is confirmed by the Canarese commentator Padmaprabha Traividya. These passages show that the Ājivika was persona grata to the Digambara Jaina. He is promised a very high place in the Jaina Heavens. This surely indicates that the Jaina theologicians recognised him as akin to themselves and paid him qualified respect. It is also evident that some Ājivikas were being absorbed into Jainism during the middle ages.
P. 507. Jainas have never shown marked hostility to the Hindu gods or to the use of ikons in religious cermonies.

P. 267. With the Jainas the atom (paramänu) is not differentiated according to elements; it is permanent and unchanging in its substance, but liable to change in its qualities. Atoms are susceptible to taste, smell colour, and touch and combine into aggregates or molecules (skandha). The alom is the minutest seperable portion of the ultimate undifferentiated classification by elements is not fundamental (JACOBI, Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics, ii, Pp, 199-200; SCHUBRING, Die Lehre der Jainas, pp. 88ff.). Both Dharma and Karma are atomic! jiva, the soul, is not paudgalika or material; Jiva is amurta and arūpa.
P. 273. Pūraṇabhadra and Manibhadra are well-known yakşas, popular divinities of the period (Mahāvīra, Buddha) in the Ganges Valley (Northern India). In Jainism they are chiefs of the demigods, Pūraṇabhadra of the Southern horde of Yakşas and Maņibhadra of the Northern. Jainism accepted the reality of the chief Hindu deities,
P. 274. The evidence of the Jaina commentators shows that the Ajivikas had their own epistemology and logic, which had much in common with that of the Jaina sect of Trairāśikas.
P. 277. One branch of the small Ajivika community was in the fourteenth century merging with the Jainas. This is the substratum of truth in HORENLE's theory, that the Ajivikas and Digambaras were identical, and is the basis of the belief of such Tamil scholars as Schomerus, who quoting POPE, believed that the Ajīvika atomic doctrines expressed in Civanana-cittiyar were the product of an heretical Jaina sect (Der Saiva-siddhanta, Pp. 104-05).
P. 278. Gosāla was one time closely associated with Mahāvīra, the Jain Tirthankara, but that later their partnership was broken.

of these white-robed heretics reached enlightenment and first preached the law he had discovered". HORACE Wilson was the first to propound that Jainism was an offshoot of Buddhism and originated in the 7th century A.D. According to ELPHINSTONE, Jainism originated in the 7th century, spread during the 8th, 9th and 10th, reached its zenith in the 11th and declined since the 12th century. Albrecht WELCER fixed the derivation in the 4th century B.C. MAX MULLER and OLDENBERG, admitted that Mahavira and Mätaputta were one and the same person, and that he was contemporary of the Buddha. A. GUERINOT emphasised five great points of difference between Vardhamana Mahavira and Goutama' Buddha. Dr. RADHAKRISNAN says that "The Indian tradition looks upon Jainism and Buddhism as two distinct faiths. Hermaun JACOBI gave a death below to the Buddhist derivation theory once for all. Editors of the Encyclopaedia of Religion and Ethics show how the Buddhists have borrowed from Jainism. The Vrätyas and Kshatrabandhus of the later Vedic literature were the Jain śramanas according to many. Jainism prevailed even before Mahävira and Pārswanatha. Now it is commonly held that Jainism is a very ancient religious system of India which had been coexistent with Vedic religion since the latter's advent into India.

Pp. 43-45. Salient features of the Jaina sculpture of the Deccan; Jaina faith existed here (Deccan) from very early times, but flourished especially during the period of the ninth to elevenih centuries A.D., when important centres of the cult were established at Ellora, at Patancheru, 19 miles to the nort-west of the present city of Hyderabad, at Kulpak, the Kallipaka of the inscriptions, 45 miles north-east of Hydrabad, and Kopbal in the Raichur District of the Hyderabad State. All these seats are ancient. Kopbal had acquired fame as a tīrtha of the Jaina religion in the ninth century AD. Kopbal (Kopana) noted as a Jaina sanctuary in the seventh century A.D. (Kannada inscriptions of Kopbal, Hyderabad Archaeological series, Monographs No. 12-p. 2, n. 1. ). Some Jaina shrines at Patancheru, Kulpak, and Kopbal were burnt and razed to the ground-there the Archaeological Dept. has collected a large number of Jaina images. The general character of the Jaina sculpture of the Deccan shows competent workmanship and conveys a feeling of religious serenity; but it possesses neither the majestic dignity nor the vigour and zeal. The art seems to be schematic & showing no creative effort on the part of the artist. To illustrate this view two images may be described; (Plates XXXVIIXXXVIII); one of them (Pārsvanātha) was found at Kopbal now in Salar Jung's palace at Sururnagar in the suburbs of Hyderabad, and the other in the sculpture gallery of the Hyderabad Museum, both described.
In Jaina sculptures the figures of gods do not generally possess any decorative features. In purely decorative designs, such as floral and jenealery patterns, the skill of the Jaina sculptor surpasses that of his rivals.

Pp, 10-11. The Rāshtrakütas were great patrons of Jainism and Aukottaka became a great centre of Svetāmbara Jainism with temples etc. A group of images from these Jaina temples have been discovered The Jain temples continued to flourish on the banks of the river Vishvamitri in ancient Akota. One of the images of Jinatrayi found at Akola is dated 1006 v.s. (949 A.D.) In 1207 during the invasion of Gujrat by Alp Khan, the Jaina community hurriedly buried all their precious images collected in over four centuries, to prevent them from falling into Muslim hands. A hoard of Jain Bronzes dating from 6th to the 11th century comining from a Jain monastery at Anko laka (to which fortunately we have literary references) were buried in an impoverished pit in the abandoned area of the town.
U, P. SHAH - A Note on the Akota Hoard of Jaina Bronzes. A big hoard of Jain bronzes from the site of Akola. A brief outline of the history of these finds and the description of the images and literary evidence, given. Most important in the whole collection is the inscribed bronze of Jivanta svāmi (paper 1, 2), assigned to c. 550 A.D. It represents Mahāvira meditating at home, before, fipal renunciation Images of this type show ornaments on the person of Jina, not otherwise sanctioned in Jaina iconography. Jiwantasvāmi icon represents a sort of Tirthankara-sattva, the analogy of the term Bodhisaltva. The biggest bronze in the hoard is that of a standing figure of Adinātha. It may tentatively be assigned to the latter half of the fifth century A.D. The earliest known example in India of a Tirthankara image showing a dhoti on the person, i. e., of the Svetāmbara sect; the earlier specimens from Mathura or Chausa are all nude.

P. 115. A whole hoard of Jain bronzes varying in date from 6th to the 11th centuries of the Christian era came to light. The Rāstrakūțas were great patrons of Jainism. During the reigns of Damtivarman, Govinda III and Amoghavarsha, Digambara Jainism from Karnataka spread to Malwa and Magadha. Karka Suvarnavarsha, whose grant is found at Baroda, refers to Jain temples (Chaityālayatana) monastery (vasahika) and Senasangha at Navasari (738 Saka) Svetämbara Jainism had a very strong hold in Gujrat specially due to the activities of Haribhadrasüri. We get definite literary evidence about Jain temples and Jain scholars during the Chalukyan period. A few of the bronzes refer to a Jain monastery at Akola and probably these bronzes were kept in the Jain temples at Akola. The images belong mainly to the Twenty-four Tirthankaras and a few Jain goddesses like Ambikä, Sarasvati etc.
P. 116. Late Medieval Period : One of the most dominating features of this period is the dominating position of Jainism in Gujrat and the maintenance of regular Jain Bhandars or libraries has also made available to us a number of dated Jain works which throw light on the cultural history of Gujrat. In Jaina literature, a number of references to Baroda--then a great centre of Jains with a number of Jaina scholars.
Jayasimha Siddharāja (1094-1143 A.D.) ascended the throne of Anhilwäda. His governor, Santuka celebrated rathayātrā at“Vada Udaya" (Baroda) is referred to by Devabhadra (Prabha) Sūri in his Sreyāmsinātha Charita.
P. 117. During his exile, Kumārapāla came to Vätapadrapuri (Baroda). Where he was entertained by Katuka. After his exile, when he became the king in 1140 A.D., he gave Vadapadra (Baroda) to Katuka as a gift.
P. 118. According to the inscriptions on the pedestrals of soine Jaina images (mentioned, at Ankontaka) belonging to 10th, 11th and 12th centuries it is clear that Akota was a great centre of Jains.
P. 119. A huge hoard of images, dating from 6th to 12th century from the Jain temples at Akota, were buried in a hurry in a deserted area during the invasion of Gujrat by the Generals of Allauddin Khilji.

In general literature, the Jtoakacintamani of the Jain ascetic and poet Tiruttakkadevar was composed in the tenth century. The story of Jivaka given. The poem is said to have been the author's answer to a challenge that though Jain writers were admittedly distinguished in the field of religious literatures they could make no contribution to the literature of love. Saint Tiruttakkudevar is thought to have been a Chola prince by birth. Another Jain writer was Tolamoli (a man of unsurpassed eloquence) whose Sulamani handles a Jain Puranic Theme in very multifluous verse and is counted among the five minor Kavyas of Tamil literature.

Rājāditya (1190) a Tain of Purinabage reduced to easy verse the mathematical subjects he dealt with in several ganita works.
P. 386. Jain writers continued to flourish under the later Hoysalas, and the lives of the Tirthankaras formed the theme of many Purāna with form of campus.

P. 388. Jainism flourished in the Taluva country more than anywhere else in this period, when two colossal Jain statues were erected-one at Kārkala in 1431 and the other at Yenur in 1603. We have four authors from that country-first was Abhinava vādi Vidyananda of Gersoppa, in 1533. He compiled the Karyasāra (he gives the names of many poets of the period 900-1430) ; Salva (C. 1550) Courtpoet of a Prince of Konkon, produced a Jain version of the Bhārat about 1510. Ratnākaravarni, a Kshatriya of Mudabidire, wrote Trilokasāra (1567) on cosmology, the Aparajita-Sataka on philosophy and renunciation the Bharateśvara-carita, Ammagalapada (songs of the brothers). Nem Anna's jñānabhaskara-charita (1559) exalts meditation and study as means of emancipation above rites and austerities. Āyata-varma a poet of uncertain date assigned by some to C. 1400, his Ratna-Karandaka translated from Sanskrit, treats of the three jewels---right belief, right knowledge and right conduct.
P. 395. In the beginning, Telugu had much in common with Kannada and this affinity persisted to a relatively late stage in the development of thetwo languages. Pampa and Ponna, two of the greatest Kannada poets, came from the Telugu country. Early Telugu prose and verse can now be traced only in inscriptions like those of Telugu-Chodas and the Eastern Chālukyas. Beyond doubt there must have existed much unwritten literature of a popular character which enlive
ed the daily life of the common folk ; such desi compositions may have included ·lalipatalu (songs of the cradle), Melukolupulu (songs of the dawn), Mangala haratulu (songs of festivity), Kirtanalu (devotional songs) and Udupupaiali (songs of the harvest).
Pp. 411-42. Religion and Philosophy :
Jains were found in considerable numbers in different parts of the country following their practices without let or hindrance. But soon a great change came in the Tamil country-People began to entertain fears of the whole land going over to Jainism & Buddhism ; growth of emotional bhakti to Śiva or Vishnu and hatred of Buddhists and Jains ; challenges to public debate, competition in the performance of miracles, tests by means of ordeal, became the order of the day. Appar or Tirunavukkarasu a Śaiva was attaracted to Jainism in his early years-joined the Jain monastery at Pataliputra (Cuddalore) as a monk by name Dharmasena; further story given of his reconversion to Saivism.

Jainism had more influence than Buddhism on the life of the people, particularly in Karnataka and in the Tamil country owing to the striking contributions made by the Jain authors to the literatures of Kannada and Tamil. The Tain Temple built at Aihole by Ravikirti in the reign of Pulakesin II, was the abode of all excellencies; Jain temples and monasteries built in the extensive dominion of the Chalukyas and the Rashtrakūtas. Many early western Ganga monarchas followed Jainism and it also found patronage under the Eeastern Chalukyas. Amma II, (mid-tenth century) built two Jinalayas & established salras (feeding houses) attached to them where śramaņas (Jain monks) of all the four castes were to be fed.
Jainism had much in common with Hinduism. In 812 a Jain temple was endowed for the removal of trouble caused to a Chalukya Vimalāditya by the planet Saturn.

Vyavahāra ganita, Kshetra-ganita and Lilavati Jaina writers continued to flourish under the later Hoysalas, and the lives of the Tīrthankaras formed their themes. Nemicandra wrote the Lilāyati, Ardha Nemi (Neminātha-purāna). Jaina, a poet and a minister and a builder of temples wrote the Yasodharacarila (1209), Anantanātha-purāna (1230). Bandhuvarma wrote the Harivamśābhyudaya and Jiva Sambodhana.
P. 380. Kumudendu (c.1275) wrote a Jain Rāmāyaṇa. In the age of Vijayanagar (1336-1650) the Jainas were being steadily pushed out by the rising influence of Saivas and Vaishnavas; yet they continued to write in Kannada on the lives of Tirthankaras. Madhura (1385) wrote Dharmanatha-purāna, a short poem in praise of Gommateśvara of Śravana Belgo!a; Vritta Vilasa, author of Dharma-Parikshe and Šāstrasāra. The life of Jivandharaja was a favourite subject and was handled three times over by Bhāskara of Ponugonda (1424), Bommarasa of Terakaņāmbi (c. 1485) and Koteśvara of Tuluvadesa (c. 1500). Bāhubali of Sringeri (c. 1560) wrote the story of Nāgakumara.
P. 381 Jainism flourished in the Tuluva country more than anywhere else in this period when two colossal Jain statues were erected --one at Kārkal in 1431 and the other at Yenur in 1603. Accordingly we have four authors from that country. First was Abhinava Vādi Vidyānanda of Gersoppa; in 1533, he composed the Kārpasāra, an anthology, he gives the names of many of the poets of the period 900-1430. Sālva (c. 1550) produced a Jain version of the Bharata. Ratnākara-varni, a kshatriya of Mudabidire wrote Trilokasāra (1557) on cosmology; the Aparajita-Sataka on philosophy, morals and renunciation; the Bharateśvara-carila. Many songs by this author are known as Anngaļapada 'songs of the brothers'. Nemanna's Jñäna-bhāskara-carite (1559), exalts meditation. Ayata-varma wrote Ratnakarandaka, a Campu translated from Sanskrit, treats of 'the beliefs and duties of the Jains'.
P. 387. Important works of the early 17th century: Karnataka Sabdanušāsana (1601) of Bhattākalanka Deva, the most comprehensive grammar of Kannada. The re-consecration of the Gommata statue at Sravana Belgoļa in 1612 was described by poet Pancabāņa of that town in his Bhujabalicarite (1614). The Kārkala image was rededicated in 1646 and its history and that of Gommata from the subject of KarkalaGommatesvara carita of Chandrama of the Tuluva country. Bijjala-rāya-caritra, giving the Jain version of Basava's life at Kalyāna and fina-munitanaya on Jain morals are other works of the period.

by Jain authors to the literatures of Kannada and Tamil. The Jain temple built at Aihole by Ravikirti in the reign of of Pulakesin II, is said to have been the abode of all excellencies ard Jain temples and monasteries continued to be built everywhere in the extensive dominions ruled by the Chalukyas and the Rāshtrakūtas. Rashtraküta Amoghavarsha I, sound solace by retiring to a Jain monastery more than once in the course of his long reign. Many of the early Western Ganga monarchs were followers of Jainism, and it also found patronage under the Eastern Chālukyas, Amma II, (mid-tenth century) built two Jinalayas and established satras (feeding houses) attached to them where sramaņas (Jaina monks) of all the four castes were to be fed. Jainism had much more in common with Hinduism than Buddhism. In 812 a Jain temple was endowed for the removal of trouble caused to a Chālukya Vimalāditya by the planet Saniscara (Saturn). In many Jain grants we find that the donors are required to use the proceeds of the endowment for their daily rites and observances in terms identical with those employed in Hindu donations; and influential guids of merchants often included a strong Jain wing in their membership. Soon after the establishment of Vijayanagar, Jains complained to king Bukkarāya of persecutions by the Vaishṇavas. The monarch interceded (1368) and declared that both parties should practise their respective religions with cqual freedom and without mutual interference. Though Jainism has been steadily losing ground it has not altogether disappeared from the country--particularly in parts of Gujarat.

The courtyard of the Ranigumphä, there is reason to think, constituted an open-air-theatre, In it are the remains of channels for the distribution of water throughout the structure. In the Ganesa-gumphā the entrance steps are flanked with figures of elephants, the first appearance of the sculptured-animal motif at the entrance to a rook-cut hall which was developed with such wonderful effect later at Ellora and Elephanta (where, however, the elephants are replaced by lions).

Nātaputa is mentioned as having held the doctrine of four-fold restraint, In the Udumbarika-Sibanda-sutta, the restrainsts ascribed to him are different, but identical with the four vows of Pārsva. Jainism is not only a purely ethical system but also philosophical-Anekānta or Syadvada. Jainism enjoins such behaviour as does not cause injury to any Jiva.

Camarāja, not merely secured the release and restoration of the mortagaged lands but arranged for the return of the Yogi from the latter place, conferred on him many honours including grants of lands and fully restored religious life at the place (Muni Vam.

Such a spirit of enlightened liberalism is best examplified in the invocatory verse in an inscription in the Cannakeśava temple at Belur founded by the Hoysala King Vişnuvardhana.

He seems to have come into contact with Jain scholars quite early, in 1582 he is said to have invited one of the greatest living Jain divines, Hirvijaya Süri, from Gujarat to explain to him the principles of his religion; he so impressed Akbar that the emperor practically gave up meat diet.
The teachings of the Jain monks (Munis) produced a remarkable change in Akbar's life. He gave up hunting of which he had been so fond of in his early days and abstained almost wholly from meat diet. He restricted the slaughter of animals and birds, prohibiting it completely for more than half the days in the year. He even laid down the penalty of death for taking animals' life on prohibited days. Farmans were issued to all governors and local officers to abide strictly by the imperial injunctions.

The ancient Tamil literature of the Sangam age (300 B. c. to 300 A. D.) is replete with ample references to 'Amanpalli' or rock caverns resorted to by the Jain Munis-ascetic for meditation. The Tamil epic Manimekalai gives a fair perspective of the Jain religion and its doctrines. The natural caverns on the slopes of the bills practically all over the hilly parts of the Tamil Land are sort of ancient haunts of the Jains. The period from 300 A. D. to 700 A. D.--"The age of the Jain Sanghas” was characterised by a militant propagation of Jainism with main seat at ancient Pataliputra, modern Tiruppapuliyar-Thirupadaripuliyar in the South Arcot district, important seat of a most renowned monastery traced as far back as the 3rd century A.

The period from 700 A, D to 1250 A. D.- the period of the great controversies. The Alvāras and the Nayanamars, the Hindu revivalist, went about the country engaging their Jain and Buddha adversaries in the field of religious disputation. Jain Acharya Vimalachandra, challenged the Saivas, Pāśupatas, Buddhists, Kāpālikas and Kāpālis. Sandusen, Indusen and Kanakanandi were engaged in controversy by the Saivite saint Jnyana-Sambandhar.

N. R. RAY-A note on the decline of Chalukya power under Bhimadeva II (Proc. IHC, XXIst Session), Bombay, 1959.
Pp. 84-86. The rich Jain community was primarily responsible for the religious revolution in Ajayapāla's reign. Under Kumārapāla there had been an ascendency of the Jains, in general, and of Hemacandra in particular. Sometimes undue importance is attached to Kumārapāla's association with Jainism. Merutunga and following him several chroniclers claim that Kumārapāla became a convert to Jainism. But this is not supported by epigraphical evidence. Kumārapāla's leaning towards Jainism was more for political reasons. This view is refuted. According to later writers like Merutunga and others Ajayapāla, the nephew and successor of Kumārapāla reversed his predecessor's policy and began to persecute the Jains, though this is not mentioned by earlier Jain writers. Ajayapāla was the patron of a Jain scholar named Vardhamāna. The theory of Jain alienation is seen to rest on slender foundations and as such the decline of Chālukyas under Bhimadeva cannot be explained in terms of a theory or religious revolution.

P. 808. Jainism aspired to control by the noble principle of non-stealing (a-chaurya) and non-possessiveness (a-panigraha), "slavery and exploitation".
Pp. 809-10. Jainism and the world message of non-violence: By the discovery of Ahimsa Jainism may legitimately claim a very high place in the Parliament of Religions of Man. Jains claim Prehistoric antiquity of Adinath (or Rṣabhadeva) the first Tirthankar: Parsvanath (8 0 B.C.), the 23rd Tirthankara ; and Mahavira-the senior contemporary of Buddha. In the 2500 years ago (i.e. 556 B.C.) on the first day of Sravana, Mahavira preached his first sermon from the Vipule mount of Rajagriha. This event was celebrated at Rajgir in Bihar in July 1944 and from 31st Oct. to 4th Nov. 1944 at Calcutta-attended by, Jains and non-Jains from all over India; and Vira Sasana Sangha of Calcutta was

Pp. 197-98. The use of ascetic techniques to gain control of the body is central; and the three main expressions come in Jainism, Buddhism and Bakhti.
Jainism accepted nothing less than total escape from the chain, and venerated a small group of noble selves who had escaped into perfection.
Jainism founded by Vardhamana, born about 569 B.a., an ascetic who gathered the usual marvellous tales of birth, childhood and initiation. The Jains have carried ahimsa or non-violence towards all creatures to an extreme, e.g., they filter their breath with respirators so as not to swallow living organisms. They have survived as a minority sect; like the Quakers in 18th century England they have played a leading part in banking, and in parts, Bengal and Assam, hold almost a monopoly of retail trade. There is a certain bitter irony in the way in which quietest sects, especially when persecuted, seek to heap up treasure in heaven, and by their extremely abstinent lives end by heaping up treasure on earth and playing a leading role in money accumulation.

R. K. DIKSHIT-Jainism under the Chandellas, (Jain. Ant. Vol XXII, No. I), Arrah, 1963. Pp. 7 to 13.
The allegonical drama of Krsna Misra, Prabodhachandradaya introduces a Digambara ascetic in III Act. The picture presented by Prabodhachandradaya is vitiated and contrary to historical evidence. The Chandella Kings who ruled. over Jejakabhukti (modern Bundelkhand) from the 9th to the 14th century A.D., though were orthodox Saivas showed their respect for and patronage of the rival creeds Buddhism and Jainism. Epigraphic and monumental evidence show that the pradela contained a flourishing Jaina community and its holy Kietras and that the Chandella kings even permitted the Jainas to build their temples in the capital cities of Khajuraho and Mahoba and within the fort walls at Ajayagadha. At Khajuraho, there is compact group of Jaina temples, situated to the South-east of the village, and an isolated temple, the Ghanțai. The Adinath and Pārsvanath temples of the southern group belong to the Chandella period. Most important, of these is the temple of Santinätha. The Pärsvanatha temple is the largest and the finest of the ancient shrines showing an inscription of v.s. 1011. They offer ample material

for the study of Jain iconography. The images include those of all the twentyfour Tirthankaras, lunchanas, Yakshas, Yakshinis, Vahanas, sixteen auspicious symbols, the Jain adaptations of Navagrahas and Dikpalas, Apsaras, Vidyadharas, Kirtimukhas, certain Brahmanical deities such as Brahma, Visnu, Šiva and Balarama. All these sculptures are masterpieces of art and reflect great credit on the Chandella sculptors. The State Museum, Lucknow, has a good collection of statues from Mahoba. Most of these statues belong to the Chandella period, as shown by the inscriptions on their pedestals. Three images respectively of Neminātna (vs. 1211), Sumatinatha (v.s. 1215) and Ajitanätha (v.s. 1220) refer to the reign of King Madanavarman. Ajayagadha (Panna Dist., V.P.) the celebrated fortress of the Chandellas, also boasted of a number of Jaina shrines. A statue of Sumatinatha bearing an inscription in v.s. 1331 by Acharya Kumudachandra of the Mula Sangha belongs to the reign of Viravarman. An image of Santinatha set up at Jayapur durgga (Ajayagadh) in v.s. 1335 also belongs to the reign of the same ruler. Large collection of Jaina images, mostly belonging to the Chandella period has been noticed in Ahara, Madanapura (Tikamagadha District, V.P.). The dates of the inscriptions range from v.s. 1123 to v.s. 1869. The inscriptions contain the names. of different anvayas, viz. Gapati, Khandelaväla, Lambakancuka, Paurapatta, Puravata, Medhatavala, Golapurva, Jaisaval, etc. The most remarkable of the Ahara statues is the one of Santinatha 18 high which contains an inscription in stating that it was installed in v.s. 1237, in the reign of Paramardideva and referring a "Sahasrakūta chaityalaya' enshrining the images of Santinatha, Kunthunatha and Arahanatha at Banapura (Jhansi Dist.), as well as to a Sn Santi Chaityalaya' at Nandapura and another 'Chaityalya' at Madanesasagarapura. Papaura, 3 miles to the east of the city Tikamagadha, has 75 Digambara temples belonging to XVI-XIX centuries of the vikrama era. Epigraphic records show that it was important Jaina centre under the Chandellas. Devagadha (Jhansi District, U.P.) has an extensive group of Jaina shrines. The earliest inscriptions in these temples belong to the 9th century A.D., but some of the buildings may be even earlier. The place owned the sway of Chandellas at least during the 11th and 12th centuries.
Jaina monuments mostly belonging to the 11th and 12th centuries, existed side by side with the Brahmanical shrines at Madanapura, Dudahi and Chandpur, all in the Jhansi district and at Chhatarpur and Tikanagadha, The dominions of their Kachchhapaghata feudatories are also rich in Jaina shrines.

Vikrama era started from 57 B.C. Mahāvira predeceased the Buddha. Buddhism did not make much headway in the lifetime of Mahāvira. Majjhima Nikaya, II, 153, and Samyutta Nikāya, Jațila Sutta ; King Prasenajit directly tells the Buddha that he was junior to Mahavira in both age and ascetic career. There are on record only in the Buddhists texts of a few stray cases of converts from Jainism to Buddhism. Mrs. Rhys Davids says in her work on Śākya that the early training of the Buddha himself was received from Jainism as the predominant system of his times.
P. 147. Brahminical works are much later than the time of Chandragupta and cannot be expected to reflect reliable history of remote times. The most genuine Brahminical tradition on the subject is the Arthasastra of Kautilya. The theory of Chandragupta being base-born or a șüdra does not fit in with the Brahminical system and ideals for which Kautilya stands.

The Svetämbar traditions reckon 470 years between Mahāvīr Nirvāna and the commencement of the Vikrama era. The various reign periods of Kings and dynasties making up this total are on the whole correct, except that Nahavāna or Nahapān is wrongly put there before the commencement of the Vikrama era. As suggested by the Digambar traditions,

which are borne out by the modern researches, he is a post-Vikrama figure. This correction and further critical examination of the various Jain chronological tradi. tions leads to the following conclusions :--
(1) The correct date of Mahāvir Nirvāņa appears to be 430 (470-40 years of Nahavāna's reign) before the commencement of the Vikrama era or 488 B.C.
(2) Chandragupta Maurya's reign commenced in 325 B.C.
(3) The reign of Nahapāna commenced with 78 A.D. and the saka era reckoned from this date seems to be connected with him.
(4) 320 A.D. is obtained as the initial year of the Gupta era.
(5) Kalki's reign ends in 512 A.D. The death of the Huen King Toramāna is also placed by some modern historians in the same year. May be that Jain records have preserved the tradition of his reign in the account they give of Kalki. Kalki may be a tribal name reminiscient of Kalkilas of Purānas.

1. Dudahi-Situated about 18 miles to the south of Lalitpur in the Jhansi District of Uttar Pradesh and to the north of the former Ram Sagar, it contains the ruins of Hindu and Jain monuments. Amongst the Jain monuments two colossal images stand out. The seated Jina (Figs. 1 and 3) is a combination of three Jinas, one seated in the middle and two standing to the left and right. The central mürti measures 12 feet in height. Description given. Stylistically all pieces belong together. The seated Jina is identified with Rsabha on account of Jatas and the images to the left and right show the snake-hoods and represent therefore Pārsvanatha (or supärśvanatha). The standing Jina (fig. 2) also measures about 12 feet in height. Description given. On the pedestal there appears a dharmacakra flanked by the two deer (not visible in our photograph). This group does not identify a particular Jina but can be carved on the pedestal of any of the 24 Jinas. The Cakra and deer motif is however not very common in our area. It is therefore, not impossible that it had the meaning of a cinha, identifying the Jina as Santinatha,

Chandpur-The deserted and dilapidated town of Chandpur in the Jhansi District has lent its name to a group of medieval temple, Hindu and Jain, whose remains are scattered over a wide area near the ruins of the former town. As one comes from Bhopal one will find the Hindu temples to the left and the Jain temples to the right of the rails. The Jain monuments include the colossal image of a Jina (housed in closed structure with plain walls), the extant porch of a temple, and numerous slabs. Tradition has it that the Jain Temples were built by a Jain merchant "Parah Sah". Almost all the Jain remains are situated within a small fenced compound bordering on the railway track. Of these figs. 1 and 2 described in details. - Fig. 1-The most interesting features of the first piece are the tree and the relief with the horsemen. The trunk of the tree resembles that of a datepalm, All the arms are broken and both the figures possibly carried in their left hand a child which was partly attached to the upper arm.
Fig. 2-At the height of the heads of the principal figures a miniature-replica of the crown of the tree projects from its trunk. This is only out of several possible elaborations of the tree of the sacred couple motif which has been discussed in details. The sculptures may belong to the 10-11th centuries.

Biography of Hemacandra.
Hemacandra was born in Samvat 1145 (1088 A.D.) at Dhandhuka, in the district of Ahmedabad. He was the student of Devacandra and received the dignity of Suri or Acharya in Samvat 1166. He went to settle down at Anahilvāḍ Patan and met his first protector in the person of the king Caulukya-Jayasimha, surnamed Siddharaja, who died in Samvat 1199.
It is in the court of this prince that Hemacandra composed his grammar, two of his dictionaries, the Abhidhanacintamani and the Anekarthasamgraha, his poetical treatise, the Alaṁkāracudamani, and his metrical treatise, the Chandonus asana. The Diydirayamahäkävya was undoubtedly also begun.
Kumarapala succeeded Jayasimha on the throne of Gujerat. Hemachandra entered in relation with this prince towards Samvat 1214-1215. Between Samvat 1199 and 1214, the composition of the Desinämamālā and some diverse complements to the Abhidhanacintamani. It is towards Samvat 1216 that Hemacandra converted Kumarapala to the Jainism and composed the Yogaiastra and the Vitaragastotra in order to fortify the king in his new religion. Kumarapala favoured extremely the Jains and built to them a great number of temples. After Samvat 1216, the literary activity of Hemacandra did not fail off. In this period were written the Trisasfiialakapuruşararita, the appendix to this work or Parilistaparvan, the end of the Doyairaya Sanskrit, the Prakrit Duyaraya and the commentary on the Abhidhānacintamani.
Hemacandra died in Samvat 1229, a little before Kumarapala.

The author of the Praśnottararatnamala was certainly a Jain. According to several manuscripts this author must have been Vimalachandra, and according to some others Amoghavarsa. There were four sovereigns of the name of Amoghavarsa, of whom the first was a devout Jaina. It is difficult to determine which one of these kings must have written the Praśnottararatnamālā; but the author of this work must have lived between 853 and 973 A.D.

The Padmacarita or Padmapurana is equally a Jaina work. It was composed by Vimalasuri in the first century of the Christian era. It is a Jaina adaptation of the Ramayana.

With the available data there is no doubt that the Pūjyapāda referred to in Darśanasāra as the Guru of Vajranandi was no other than Pujyapāda I, Devanandi. The epigraphical records provide sufficient corroborative material to fix his identity and to enable us to distinguish him from the other and later Pūjyapādas. His works-Sarvārthasiddhi, Jainābhișeka, Samādhisataka, Jainendra Vyakarana, Sabdāvatāra Tika on Pāṇini and a work on medicine--Vaidya Sastra. His date--latter half of the 5th or the beginning of the 6th or about the middle of the 7th century A.D.

Akalan ka mentions Devanandi and incorporates the whole of his Sarvärthasiddhi in his own Tattwārt harāja-vārtika and shows great respect and admiration of the latter's Jainendra grammar. Devanandi's well known works are: (1) The Jainendra Vyakarana, (2) The Sarvārthasiddhi, a learned commentary on the Tattvārthadhigamasūtra, (3) Samadhitantra, (4) Istopadeśha, (5) Daśabhakti ; (5) Sabdāvatāra, (7) Kalyāṇakāraka, (8) Jain bhișeka and (9) Sāntyaştaka,

The article on Jainism and Buddhism draws special attention to the student of Indian Religions. The most important fact brought out is the relation of Jainism and Buddhism. Instead of Jainism being, as was formerly supposed, an offshoot from Buddhism, it is shown to extend as far back as 3,000 B.c. It is found flourishing alongside the nature worship of the rude tribes in Northern India. The author points out that Asoka on becoming a Buddhist changed his title, and it is significant of the difference between Jainism and Buddhism.

Principal works mentioned :
E. WINDISCH, Hemacandra's Yogaśāstra.
H. JACOBI, Kalpasūtra; J. WARREN, “Nirayāvaliyā" and “Uber de godsdiestige en wijsgeerige Begrippen der Jainas.”
Conclusions : The antiquity of the Jainism cannot be contested However, it is not allowed to affirm in an absolute manner that the founder of the sect may be the same personnage as the Nirgrantha Jñātraputra of the Buddhistic books. "All what one can say, it is this that from the 5th century A. D. the Jainas identified the Jinas of the actual age with one of the six scholars of whom the Buddhistic sūtras make contemporary adversary of Buddha."
II.- 1881.
Examination of the two memoirs of M. JACOBI, on Mahävira and his Predecessors and Das Kalakācārya-Kathanakam.
Conclusions: 1. "It becomes more and more probable that the Jainas from the 5th century were able to rise by the traditions mor? or less direct to the ascetics having lived thousand years before.
"We admit also that real personality is concealed probably under the figure of Pārsvanātha.
“That which we contest, it is the conscious and continuous existence of the sect since romote date, it is the direct transmission of a doctrine and of a proper tradition. This tradition appears to us, on the contrary, to be formed later, of vague recollections and on the model of Buddhistic tradition,"
2. As regards the legend of Kālakācārya, it is difficult to separate the reality from the skein of fictions which accompanies it.
III.-1882.
Mention of the article of Bhagwanlal INDRAJI and M. J. BURGESS, The Kahaun Inscription of Skandagupta, which "restores in a difinite manner” this inscription to the Jaina religion,

The Jaina documents of the middle age deserve generally confidence; beyond the 5th century, there is no more than scattered recollections. With the approach of our era they become absolutely imperfect. As to the period of origin, "Until now two points appear; it is that, of the Jainism and of the Buddhism, one of the two has largely copied the other; and that the chances of originality are not in favour of
the first".

Historical and critical notes.
M. BARTH remains suspicious with regard to the Jaina tradition that characterises "a lack of true recollections associated with a profusion of details of a minute and certainly fictitious precision.” His scepticism is particularly keen as regards the first centuries of this tradition. However he recognised the ability of the works o Bühler on the inscriptions of Mathura. “The result from now onwards acquired from this beautiful country so vigorously conducted, he says, is a series of documents going from the year 80 upto the middle of the 2nd century of our era, and establishing in an unquestionable manner that, from this peiod, the Jaina church was perfectly distinct and organised.” Inspite of all, these researches are generally very far from confirming the Jain tradition.

1. Review of the works of BÜHLER on the inscriptions of Mathura :
"From the mass of these inscriptions admirably interpreted by M. BÜHLER, it proceeds that, from the 1st century before our era, the Svetāmbara Jaina church was solidly organised...” But on several points, 'which are of capital importance for the first history of the Jainism, I have nothing to change to the stocks that I have made in the preceding Bulletin."
Mention of other inscriptions and of different pattavalis published by several scholars.

The Purana version that Buddhism and Jainism originated amongst the Asuras-OriginLegend ancient, as later sects of white-robed Jains not mentioned. Jain devotees called rati-Term siddha for the deified ascetics-Jains in existence before Buddha. All the twenty-four Tirthankaras, or deified anchorities of the Jains, were Kshatriyas, and all but two were of the Solar race of Ikṣvāku-Close connection as such with the Sun and the Serpent. The last of the Tirthankaras was Vardhamana or Mahavira who was a contemporary of Sakya Buddha. He was related by marriage to Bimbisära, Raja of Magadha. By permission of his elder brother, Vardhamana became an ascetic; he went naked; after twelve years he became a Jina or Tirthankara; after his death, he became a Siddha-Pärśa, who preceded Mahävira, was a son of the Raja of Benares. He is represented with the hoods of a seven-headed Naga expanded over his head-Sculptured representations of Naga at Jaina temples.

In the 8th Edict he speaks of going out on tour well-enlightened. This shows that after the tenth year he became a follower of Jaina sect of Ājivika.

Chapter II. Buddhist and Jain Ethics, and Egoistic Hedonism :
Pp. 109-115. Jains are a religious community with a distinct origin and history; Mahavira-little known of his life ; title of Jina correspondens to that of Buddha ; means Conqueror. Jainism much nearer to Hinduism than to Buddhism. In Jain teaching, features suggestive of Buddhism-destruction of Karma; Jain conception of Nirvana different from the Buddhist Nirvāṇa, not the annihilation of the soul, but its deliverance and its entry into a blessedness that has no end (Barth, Religions of India, P. 147). Qualities of a Siddha (one who has attained deliverance).
The way to the attainment of Siddha-hood : Triratna or Three jewels vows of the laymen and ascetic. Principles of ahimsa-Jain more rigorous than Buddhist. Gautama died of a disease caused by eating pork. Preservation of life. Pinjra Pols or hospitals for animals, outcome of the doctrine. Belief in transmigration and hell. Ahimsa-its development.

In the Jaina system the principle is always kept in the forefront, and hence, religious toleration and fellowship is the essence of Jaina philosophy.
The principle of Ahimsā or non-injury to living beings. Jainism does not prohibit a house-holder from committing these three kinds of Himsa which may be called accidental, occupational and protective. It is only the injury for injury's sake, for the merest pleasure or the fun of it without any thought and with out any obvious higher end to serve, that a house holder is recommended to guard himself against. Whenever the occasion arises, let him ask to hiniself the question. “Is it necessary for me to injure this being, and if so, what is the minimum amount of injury

that will serve the need ?" This much care and caution would save him from a lot of wanton destruction. Violence in words and violence in thought are also constituents of Himsa and one must abstain from these too. Jainism wants to make people gentlemen who have no tendency to do violence to any body. 'Parigraha parimana vrata' or the vow of setting a limit to the maximum wealth that one would possess. The aim of Jainism is to avoid as far as possible, undesirable clashes in life and consequent disharmony in society. This is a very quiet and peaceful attempt at economic equalisation of wealth. Karma Theory-every individual works out his own destiny by his own mental and physical exertions which, by themselves generate energies that bring to them agreeable or disagreeable experie

The Jainas worship Tirthankaras or those who made it easy for others to cross over the ocean of life. In Jainism, there is no place for the distinction of caste and creed. Jains believe in salvation of mankind and brotherhood among all

Why has Jainism ceased to be a vital force in the national life. ?
Historical retrospect: It challanged the divine authority of the Vedas and the infallibility of the priests who were the custodians of the divine world; it protested against the tyrrany of an all powerful God over human lives; it denounced the cult of ritual and sacrifice its whole teaching represented a democratic and egalitarian urges in the priest-ridden society. The 'clan vital of Jainism in its early Stages was supplied by its relevance to the specific needs of the age. The divorce of philosophy and religion from life and environment has produced moral and intellectual preversity.
Challenge of science to religion : Science has proved that suffering is not inevitable, poverty unnecessary, squalor and unhappiness uncalled for.
Present day need : A Jain university will be the beacon of national and social regeneration. Next to education in importance, is the provision of medical facilities. Shadow of unemployment ; the distinction of caste, creed or colour cannot have any place in any genuine Jaina creed. There must be fullest freedom for inter-marriage and inter-dining. Similarly, to revise our ideas of sanctity about sex and sexual relations.

In his assembly hall a compartment was allotted even to the animal. He laid emphasis on the theory of Karman, i.e., 'as a man has sown so shall he reap'.

Edward CONZE-Bud hism its Essence and Developments. Oxford (2nd edi.) 1953.
Pp. 61-62. About 500 B. C. two religions came to the fore in India which placed 'No Harming' into the very centre of their doctrine--the one being Jainism and the other Buddhism. This spiritual emphasis on the prohibition of doing harm to any living being was presumably a reaction against the increase in violence, which marked human relationships as a consequence of the inventions. of bronze and iron. It was directed in India not only against the massacres which marked tribal warfare, but also against the enormous slaughter of animals. which accompanied the Vedic sacrifice, and to some extent against the cruelty which marks the attitude of peasants to animals. The doctrine of Jains and Buddhists is based on two principles:
1489
(1) The belief in the kinship of everything that lives which is further strengthened by the doctrine of reincarnation, according to which the same being is today a man, tomorrow a rabit, after that a moth, and then again a horse, By illtreating an animal one might thus find oneself in the invidious position of ill-treating one's deceased mother or one's lost friend.
(2) The second principle is expressed in the Udana, where the Buddha says: "My thought has wandered in all directions throughout the world. I have never yet met with anything that was dearer to anyone than his own self. Since to others, to each one for himself, the self is dear, therefore, let him who desires his own advantage not harm another". In other words, we should cultivate our emotions so that we feel with others as if they were oviselves. If we allow the virtue of compassion to grow in us, it will not occur to us to harm any one else, any more than one willingly harm ourselves.
P. 92. The Buddhists, like the Jains, are taught to concentrate their attentions on the "Nine Apertures" from which filthy and repulsive substances flow unceasingly-the two eyes, the two ears, the two nostrils, the mouth, the urethra and
the anus.
P. 140. The a-theoretical attitude of the Madhyamikas had a striking parallel in the so-called Greek Sceptics. The founder of this school is Pyrrhon of Elis (C. 330 B.G.) Except for the stress on omniscience, his view of life corresponds in all its details closely to that of the Madhyamikas. Pyrrhon had no positive doctrines. To be his disciple meant to lead a kind of life similar to that of Pyrrhon. "He wanted to reveal to men the secret of happiness, by showing them that 'salvatian' can be found only in the peace of thought which is indifferent, a sensibility

which is extinct, a will which is obedient ; and further, that this quest requires an effort which is, on the part of the individual, an effort to die to himself." (L. ROBIN, Pyrrhon et le scepticisme grec, 1954, p. 24).
P. 141. It is a fact that Pyrrhon founded his school immediately on his return from Asia, which, together with his teacher, Anaxarchos, he had visited in the train of Alexander's army. It has further been asserted by ROBIN, and other authorities, that the sceptic philosophy was something quite new to Greece, and that none of the preceding indegenous Greek developments led upto it. One can therefore, infer with some probability that Pyrrhon acquired his views in India or Iran. If he did not acquire them in Iran, the tenets of the Madhyamikas would have been present in India already by about 350 B.C. They were of course, not necessarily transmitted to Pyrrhon by Buddhist monks. It is perhaps more probable that he was in contact with the Digambara Jains, who, in the Greek accounts occur under the name 'gymnosophists', the naked ascetics. The Jains and Buddhists lived in close contact with each other, and the doctrine of each shows the influence of the other. It is, for instance, curious that the Jains have a list of twenty-four successive Tirthankaras (saviours), and that ancient Hmayana Buddhism knows a Itst of twenty-four predecessors of Shakyamuni. I believe that the Mahayan doctrine of Omniscience has also been profoundly influenced by the Jain views on that subject. As a matter of fact, a typical Jain doctrine is recorded among the sayings of Pyrrhon. He gave as his reason for writing no books that he was resolved to exert no pressure on any body's mind, The Jains, before him, had drawn, from their injunction. of 'inoffensiveness' the logical conclusion that one must not do violence to anyone by imposing one's views upon him. However that may be, if it is granted that Pyrrhon owed his basic ideas to his conversion by Indians, and if his philosophy is very similar to that of the Madhyamikas, then the Madhyamika doctrines, which are known to us only from writings certainly not older than about 100 B.C., must go back in their essentials to c. 353 B.c. i. e. to within 150 years of the Buddha's Nirvana.

P. 153. The Section on Jainism gives a sketch of "A religion of austere aspect, that might be described as Buddhism's darker reflection". The Jainas believe that there has been a progressive attention of the right knowledge and the inner history of Jainism shows the effort to retrace the path and recover the original sources of this knowledge. In its outward history it is a contrast to Buddhism which inspite of its spectacular origins and early imperial support, has faded out of India, whereas the Jaina Community has always been firmly established.

The Purāņas are both Śaiva and Jaina in origin; the Jaina versions being generally later and perhaps relatively less trustworthy. There is no clear proof that Bijjala was a Jain. Bijjala was a traditional type who has been represented as a Jaina by Virasaiva sources because of the fact that the Jainas were their chief antagonists. At Ablur Ekāntada Rāmayya-his controversy with the Jains-his offer to cut off his own head if the Jainas would wager their 800 temples including the Anesejjeya Basadi in Lakshmeśvara-Unwillingness of the Jains.

Conclusion: The 16 karana sequence cannot only be traced in Tattvarthasūtram and later Dig. texts but also in more ancient Dig. literature such as Mahabandha and Şațkhandagama but that the Shvet. 20 karana sequence cannot be traced in the more ancient parts of the Angas and Upangas. The karana sequence leading to the state of a Tirthankara originated in circles close to the Digambaras. It seems that the Shvet. after the separation of the two groups have included the karana sequence and enlarged upto 20 karanas.

According to Dr. Herman Jacobi Pārsvanātha was a historical person (Introduction to Vol. XXII and XIV of the SBE). According to Dhammanand Kosambi Buddha came into contact with the followers of Pārsvanātha even before as well as after his enlighteninent (Pürsvanatha's Caturyama Diarma). The asceticism of Pārsvanätha has been called Caujjāma (Caturyāma) and this name has been given even to the system of Mahāvīra in the Pāli books. Pārsvanātha regarded all Samyama as one (Sāmāyika), Mahāvīra classified it into five vows Chhedopasthānika). Both the Digambara and Śvetāmbara traditions agree.

Contents: Every one desires for attaining true happiness that arises from the destruction of all karmas which results from right conduct which is dependent of right knowledge, which is acguired from scriptures. It is by the practice of penances, for which the human birth alone is suited, that the karmas are consumed and real happiness is reached. Proper meditation destroys all karmas ; and then the Alman is realised in full effulgeness. Jainism makes no room for a God which is a creator and a distributor of favours and frowns; but it is a pre-eminent champion of the Karma doctrine which is an automatically functioning mechanism. By one's thoughts, words and acts one incures good or ban karmas.

This book describes what the Jainas considered to be the way of life proper to a layman, during the period of their greatest political importance (from the fifth to the thirteenth centuries, particularly the eleventh and twelfth). It deals with the Śravakacāras, the actual treatises on the lay life, and sets forth, primarily, the opinions of the doctors of the church ; taking no account of material from the narrative literature or from inscriptions. This exposition is preceded by an account of the authors covered by the survey, with an investigation of the attribution and dating of their works. As the original texts are not easily accessible, some extracts from them, showing the dependence of the writers on one another, are given in an appendix.

Jainism an important ideological phenomenon in the religio-philosophical history of mankind is one of the ancient religions of India that came with a fixed aim to disclose the shallow mundane practices of the Vedic priests.

A. B. Keith--- Indian Logic and Atomism. Oxford, 1921.
P. 14. The tradition preserved in a late text the Avaśyaka in a passibly interpolated passage and in late prose versions attributes the Vaišeșika system to a Jain schismatic 544 years after Vardhamāna Rohagutta, of the Chaulu family whence the system is styled chaluga.
P. 15. In the Jain system there is no evidence of anything which could give rise to the Nyāya or Vaišeșika system.
P. 15. In the Sthānanga sütra we find mention made of the usual four means of proof, perception, inference, comparison and verbal testimony and there are given certain classes of inferences but it is idle to claim priority for the Jain logic nor as it appears in such authors as Umāsvāti and Siddhasenadi vākara is there anything to suggest that the logic was the original possession of the Jains.
P. 15. According to Syādvāda everything is indifinite and changing in point of quality, permanent only in respect of substance and thus to make any true statement about it demands a qualification.
P. 15. Similarly Nayas are modes of regarding reality from different points of view.
P. 16. The case is different with the atomic theory of the Vaišeşikas and the Jainas... In the Jain conception atom has taste, colour, smell, two kinds of touch and is a cause pf sound though soundless and thus differs from Vaišeśika's atom which has no connection with sound and has one, two three or four of the ordinary qualities according as it is air, fire, water or earth. Jain atoms are thus qualititatively alike the Vaišeșika's atoms are not.
P. 17n. On the general appearance of Jain doctrines as influenced by Vaiseșika view see Bhandarkar report for 1883-1, Pp. 101 ff. A Primitive view recognising the self as well as the five elements appears in the Sutra kştanga (SBE XIV; XXIV) but this is very far from the Vaišeşika. The age of Buddhist atomism kui Pp. 26 ff) is very doubtful.

Yoga Sūtra was written shortly after the close of the epoch of the early Upanişad under the influence of old Bhuddhism and Jainism.

On the antecedents of the Karma theory the law of cause and effect is not always effective in its operations. The various local conditions remaining the same, one is tempted to seek their cause in some previous birth or births. The doctrine of transmigration is the starting point of all Indian religions. The doctrine of Karma presupposes, and is meaningless without, a fully developed doctrine of transmigration through which is passing a permanent soul. The Jațilas were Kriyāvādins, According to Dr. KEITH (Buddhistic philosophy, p. 113) Buddha borrowed the Karma doctrine from the Jatilas. It may be possible that the Buddha was indebted for his Karma doctrine to Jainism which too was a Kriyāvāda and the antiquity of which over Buddhism is an undisputed fact.

This article summarises the view of the Jaina philosophers whether mind is to be regarded as a servee or not and compare this view with the same in Hindu Philosophers. Mind is called in Jain logic Anindriya or No-indriya. The view of Jain logicians is the same as that of the Hindu Nyaya Philosophy. It is not confined. to particular object cognizable by particular senses or contact but it can cognise all. objects, cognizable by the five senses.

The Jaina theory elaborates a logic of indermination--not in reference to the will--but in reference to knowing, though it is a pragmatist theory in some sense. As a realist, the Jaina holds that truth is not constituted by willing though he admits that the knowledge of truth has a necessary reference to willng. His theory

In this book the author has discussed at length the Jaina philosophy of 'NonAbsolutism (Anekäntavada) with his philosophical insight, logical analysis and critical exposition. It reveals an ideology entirely different from the Vedic. It is not an exhaustive account of Jaina thought, but an analytical studo of its foundation. Jaina philosophy is frankly realistic and so stands in a close relation of kinship to the Nyaya, Mimänsä and Sankhya system of thought.

Heinrich ZIMMER-Philosophies of India. Ed. by Joseph Campbell. London, (2nd ed. 1953).
P. 60 note 23. Dr. Zimmer regarded Jainism as the oldest of the non-Aryan group, in contrast to most accidental authorities, who consider Mahāvira, a contemporary of the Buddha, to have been its founder instead of, as the Jainas themselves (and Dr. ZIMMER) claim, only the last of a long line of Jaina teachers. Dr. ZIMMER believd that there is truth in the Jaina idea that their religion goes back to a remote antiquity, the antiquity in question being that of the pre-Aryan, so called Dravidian period.
Sankhya and Yoga represented a later, psychological sophistication of the principles preserved in Jainism.
P. 96. The records of the Buddhists and Jainas make it possible to study the state of
in the sixth and fifth centuries B.c.
P. 105. Candragupta was an adherent of a non-Vedic creed (that of the Tainas), the roots of which go back to pre-Aryan beliefs in north-western India which had never been quite eradicated by the Brahmans.
P. 158. Originally, Jaina saints went about 'clothed in space' (digambara), i.e., stark naked, as a sign that they did not belong to any recognized group, sect, trade, or community. They had discarded all determining marks ; for determination is negation by specialization.
No. 6. Later on, as a concession, the Jaina holy men donned the white garment and became Svetāmbara, 'clothed in white'.

Pp. 221-224. Mahāvīra, his life described. The canonical texts of the Buddhists, dating from the first centuries B.C. mention the Jaina frequently under their old name of Nirgrantha, 'without knot, tie, or string, i.e. 'the unfettered ones'; and referto them as a rival sect, but nowhere as one newly founded. Mahāvīra not a founder of a new ascetic community but the reformer of an old one. Aristanemi (or Neminātha) cousin of Krsna.
Pp. 224-n. 44. The cycle of time explained.
Pp. 225-26. With Aristanemi, Jaina tradition breaks beyond the bounds of recorded history into the reaches of the mythological past. And yet it does not follow that the historian would be justified in saying that some teacher of the Jaina faith-perhaps Aristanemi-did not precede Pārsvanātha. The long series of these mythological saviors, points to the belief that the Jaina religion is eternal.
P. 227. A philosophy of the profoundest pessimism. The round of rebirths in the world is endless ; as a result of meritorious, or evil conduct, one is reborn a god or being of hell or an animal. The release is possible only by heroic effort-a long, really dreadful ordeal of austerities and progressive self-abnegation.

P. 281. Sānkhya and Yoga related to the Mechanical system of the Jainas, which can be traced back, in a partly historical, partly legendary way, through the long series of the Tirthankaras, to a remote, aboriginal, non-Vedic, Indian antiquity.
Pp. 305-6. The term Kevälin denote the Jaina saint or Tīrthankara cleansed of karmic matter, detached from bondage, this perfected one ascends to the summit of the universe. The word Kevalin expressed the two meanings of 'isolated, exlusive, alone and whole, entire, absolute', both being ideas pertaining to the sphere of beatitude in perfection. Sānkhya Yoga system shares many features with the ancient pre-Aryan philosophy preserved in the beliefs of the Jainas.
P. 315. Jainism viewed the interaction of the two principles (life-matter and life-monads) in terms of a kind of subtle chemistry, as a material process of per. vasion and suffusion, a tingering of the crystal of the life-monad by contamination with a subtle karmic substance.
P. 331. Denunciation of ascetic extravagances of the Jainas by Buddhism and Sankhya.
P. 337. From the materialistic non-Aryan philosophies of the Jainas and Gosāla, the universe is interpreted on the basis of two antagonistic eternal principles, purusa and prakrti (or Jiva and non-jiva).
P. 379. It was in the great paradoxes of the epoch-making Bhagvad Gita that the non-Brahmanical, pre-Aryan thought of aboriginal India became fruitfully combined and harmonizéd with the Vedic ideas of the Aryan invaders. The nonAryan systems (Jainism, Gosāla's teaching, Sānkhya, and Yoga) were characterized by a resolutely logical, theoretical dichotomy, which insisted on a strict distinction between two spheres, that of the life-monad (jiva, puruşa) and that of matter (a-jtva, prakriti);

P. 203. Buddhism have a definite theory of the world-periods or aeons (kalpa) which is substantially identical with that of the Sankhya and Jaina Schools of India The Sānkhya School might have been the originator of the Kalpa theory as GARBE thinks (Richard GARBE Die Sankhya Philosophie), and Buddhism as well as Jainism might have been indebted to it.

P. 28. Introduction : Ratnakirti and the other Šāstras : one Mānikyachandra and one Ahrika are mentioned. The former may be identical with the Jaina scholar Manikyanandin, The latter has been accepted as a particular Jaina scholar by Dr. B. BHATTACHARYA (Mimāṁsāślokavārtika Trivandrum, Intro. P.I.).

Atom is indivisible, impregnable and indestructible. Its special features are colour, touch, taste and smell. Atoms, more than one, when joined, make one molecule. Keeping its ownself, the atom multiplies into countless changes and every atom turns into gold, silver, iron, earth, water, fire, wind and other worldly things.

Both are realistic in approach and idealistic in outlook. Kevala-jñāna and the super mind are the highest points of evolution, in which the essential nature of the self unfolds itself. Intuition and knowledge are the two constituent factors of the soul, and there is no antagonism between the two. Ananta catustaya in the state of Kevala-jñāna conforms to the three infinite potentialities of Saccidānanda. Ananda is the main permeating element in both the conceptions. Different stages in the course of evolution are the different poises of the same Reality in both the philosophies and all different view-points ultimately merge, into the vastness of this last stage.
Points of Dissimilarity
Jainas start their enquiry from the world of value. Unlike in Kevala-Jäāna intuition reigns and intellect loses itself into it in the super mind. Jainas reject Absolutism and maintain relativity in Kevala Jñäna, while Śri Aravinda though admitting relativity on the level of intellect lays stress on the unity only. Jainas condemn the idea of grace and involution, while Sri Aravinda very vehemently affirms it.

(b) Buddhist improved upon the Jaina legends.
(c) Monastic tenets of both emphasising the rational elements in man closely resemble.
(d) As the Buddhists emphasised on the Aryasatya.
So the Jainas on Samvara.

(e) The Avyākslas (in Buddhism) generated the dialectical process of Buddhist philosophy - Prabhācandra, the Jaina dialection, successfully refuted the Yogācāra denial of extra-mental reality. Abhayadeva, another Jaina dialection, refuted Yogācāra's difficulty of cognising Jadatā.
(f) Karma is maintained by both the systems.

The Jaina system does not accept the authority of the Veda. It commends the truth of its system on the ground of its accordance with reality.
Its central features are its classification of being, its theory of knowledge with its celebrated doctrines of Syadvada and Saptabhangi, and its ascetic ethics. Five kinds of knowledge ; consciousness; the soul.
P. 251. The doctrine of naya (aspects or standpoints) ; Jiva (conscious) and ojiva (non-concious) ; the Jainas believe in the atomic structure of the universe. Cause of the soul's embodiment ; way to deliverance through the three Jewels'right faith, right conduct and right knowledge ; five virtues-ahimsa (non-violence), truth speaking, non-stealing, chastity and non-attachment to worldly things, constitute right conduct ; the Jainas were the first to make ahimsa, non-violence, into a rule of life, the state of ‘release'.

RAMJI-SINGH-The nature of unconditionality in Syādvād. (Jain Ant. Vol. No. 1), Arrah, 1964.
Pp. 1 to 7. Syadvāda is the doctrine of the relativity of judgement which follows as the reduction-ad-absurbdum from Jaina doctrine of Anekantavada or manifoldness of truth. From it developed a wonderful organion of Saptabhangi where is found the pluralistic doctrine of Jaina Dialectics. Jaina theory elaborates a logic of indetermination not in reference to the will but in reference to thought. This saves it from scepticism. Thus there is a wonderful reconcilation between conditionality and unconditionality. Everything is conditional on thought level, but not on the level of existence. There is no real contradiction.

According to Gommatsära, Gotra signifies the conduct of the soul coming down from generation to generation. High or low birth of soul is deterinined by the Karma. The sources of some of the Gotra-names are found in the lists of names of yakşas, of fathers of Tirthankaras. of Kuladharas, of Cakravartins, of Baladevas of Vasudevas and of Rudras. The names of Pravaras are drawn from Jinasena's Sahasranama, a part of his Mahapurāna.

P. 77. A large number of Hindu and Jain images of Tirthankaras such as of Mahāvīra, Pārsvanātha, etc. were found at the Buddhist monastery of Nalanda ; it indicates that this monastery was visited by non-Buddhists as well.
79. In the Saura Purāna (Ch. 38, 54), it is said that the Ghārvākas, Buddhists, Jains, etc. should not be allowed to settle in the kingdom : Na Chārvāko navi Bauddho na jaino yavano-a-pina. Kapālika Kauliko vā tasmin rājye viselkanchit.

Pp. 101-104. Jainism : Antiquity of Jainism ; the Yajurveda mentions the names of three Tirthankaras, Rishabha, Ajitanätha and Aristanemi; the Jains had their ttronghold in Bihar ; Mahāvīra was born in Vaišali and died in Pāwā. Mabāvira first entered the order of Pārsvanātha but left it afterwards. Mahāvīra stressed asceticism and complete abandonment of all possessions, including clothings, whereas Pārsvanātha had stressed some covering and disfavoured extreme renunciation. These differences widened at the time of Bhadrabāhu.
The Siddhas also refer to the naked Jain monks : "Dihnakka jai maline bessn, nggala hoi upadia kesen, "Khavanehin Jana vidambiwa besin, appana bahira mokkha ubesen," --SANKRITAVANA, Dohakosha, p. 2. vs. 5, 6.
No king in Bihar during this period subscribed to the faith of Jainism, Mahāvīra's message to mankind was that future happiness depends on Karma ; on practising asceticism, Karma could be burnt up and one could become a Tirthan

kara. Jainism during this period lost its importance and appeal in Bihar, the land of its birth.
Image worship was current among the Jains in Eastern India even in the preMauryan times ; removal of a Jain image from Kalinga to Pataliputra by the Magadh King, Nanda. No place for god in Jainism.
The Jain laity who had been drawn away from Hinduism by Muhāvīra, found themselves left without any object of worship. Therefore, gradually reverence for their masters and teachers passed into adoration, and images of these personages were set up for worship.
Images of Rishabhadeva, Pārsvanātha, Mahāvīra and śāntinātha are most common in Bihar. No Jain inscription of Gupta period found in Bihar. Some of the images of the Tirthankaras were installed at Rajgir by some teachers called Vasantanandi and Thiroka (GHOSH, A guide to Nalanda, p. 11). Jain images discovered in the districts of Singhbhum, Mānbhum, Patna and Shahabad point out that Jainism continued to have adherents in different parts of Bihar. When the storm of persecution by the Mohammedans swept over Bihar, Jainism took refuse in Hinduism.
P. 125. Nāga-worship : it is one of the earliest popular cults. Jainism admitted the Naga in their religious system. Pārsvanājha has the serpent as his special symbol.

P. 74. The castes called 'mixed' comprise among others of the Marwäris and the Agrawals. The Märwäris are engaged in trade; they belong generally to the Jaina religion. The Agarwals are equally some merchants. One considers them as forming usually a Jaina tribe; but perhaps they constitute a particular tribe.

Legend on the coversion to the Jainism of the tribe of the Oswāls. Towards the year Samvat 222 (165 A.D.), there was at Osanagari a king without progeny. Thanks to the devotions of a Jaina ascetic of the name of Ratnasūri, this prince obtained a son and was converted soon to the Jainism. The conversion of the tribe was accomplished afterwards progressively upto Samvat 1167. The Oswāls are in general Digambaras. Some only belong to the Svetāmbara community and worship ancient masters of the Kharatara sect ; they read the Kalpasūtra. Some ideas on the cult, the pilgrimages and religious festivals.

Diverse opinions on the Sarakas :
H. RISLEY consider them as the descendants of an ancient Jaina tribe. Likewise, for M. STREATFIELD, they must have been originally Jains.
A. GAIT and M. HARAPRASAD SHASTRI regard them as Buddhists. The Sarakas inhabit in the provinces of Bengal (West) of Chota Nagpur of Orissa and even of Assam. The Sarāogis live in the provinces of the North-West and the Central Provinces. They belong to the Jaina religion. One believes them to be of the same race as that of the Sarakas. For the author of this treatise, the Sarakas and the Saraogis are, on the contrary, two distinct races. The first are of Mongolian race and the second of Caucasian race. Besides the Saraogis profess the Jaina faith, whilst the Sarakas are adepts of the Hindu cult.

Dispute regarding the brahmanical monoly of knowledge, successfully challanged by the Ksatriyas. In north-eastern India the Ksatriya revolt reached its climax with the preachings of Gautama Buddha and Vardhamana Mahavira, who claimed social primacy of the Kşatriya and gave the next place to the Brahmanas. .
P. 86. There are greater chronological uncertainties in the case of the Jain sources, which have not been edited and studied. It is held that the canonical wotks were first compiled somewhere towards the end of the fourth or the beginning of the third century B.C. (CHARPENTIER-Uttra. Intr. Pp. 32 & 48-ascribes them to the period between 300 B.C. and the beginning of Christian era). But, dealing as they do with the life of Mahāvira; they may be utilised for the pre-Mauryan period, from which they were not far removed in point of time.

While according to the existing social and economic relations Buddhism and Jainism tried to improve the position of slaves in some other ways.
P. 138. Buddhism and Jainism tried to inculcate among their followers a spirit of genreosity and kindness towards their employees. A Jain text states that wealth should be accurnulated not only for the sake of kinsmen and kings, but also for the sake of dāsas, dasīs, kammakaras and kammakarīs, suggesting thereby that those latter deserve to be well maintained by the employer (AYAR ; 1.2.5.1.).
P. 158. It is practically certain that Candragupta Maurya belonged to the Moriya clan of the Ksatriya community (Political History of Ancient India, p. 267).

P. 191. Very severe punishments for sūdras offending against the members of the superior varnas : JAYASWAL (Manu & Yājñavalkya, p. 150) suggests that these provisions (Manu VIII, 270-77) are directed against the 'dharma'--preaching learned šūdras, i.e., the Buddhist or Jain śūdras and sūdras who claim equality with the higher classes.

Description of a manuscript of the Fainendravyakarana preserved in the royal liberary of Berlin.
The author of this grammatical treatise is unknown. But he was surely a Jain, and perhaps he was called Jinendra sūri.
The date of the Jainen dravyākarana is difficult to determine. It must be admitted however that this work belongs to the series of the most ancient works which have given place to Pāṇini.
Proofs in favour of this opinion :
1. The fainendravyakarana is with Pāṇini in a closer resemblance than any other grammatical work.

This investigation on Pujyapada and the author of the Jainendravyakarana ends in the three following conclusions:
1. There was in South India an author of the name of Pujyapada. Pujyapada is cited by Arhäddäsa in the Munisuvratakanya, by Indrabhuti in the Samayabhüşaṇa, and by the Sabdamanidarpana.
2. Pujyapada is the author of the Jainendravyakarana. The fact is affirmed in a Canara translation of the Dharmapariksa of Amitagati made in the 13th century by Vrittawilasa. According to an inscription of Laksmeswar, Pujyapada was born at Alaktakanagar and lived in Saka 651.
3. Pujyapada was named still Devanandin, It is under this name that Somadeva cites him, and a paṭṭavali of the Nandi gaccha identified the two designations.

INTRODUCTION
The Prākrit languages-paragraphs 16 to 21 (Pp. 13-20) are especially devoted to the language of the Jains. According to M, PISCHEL, the dialect in which the canonical treatises of the Svetāmbaras have been drawn up must receive the name of 'Ardhamagadhi' rather than that of Jaina Prākrit'. Likewise, the term of 'Şaurāştri Jaina' should have been preferred to that of 'Māhārāştri Jaina', in order

Upto now one admitted two varieties in the Jaina Māhārāștri : an ancient dialect, represented especially by the recitals relating to the 'Avaśyaka', and a modern dialect, of which the recitals of Devendra constitute the type.
The linguistic study of the "Samaraditya Katha' of Haribhadra and of the 'Padmacharita’ of Vimla-süri (finished in 530 after the death of Mahāvira, that is to say in the first years of the Christian era) permits to replace this chronological classification by another based on the very nature of the language.

P. 608. Frequent occurrence of forms in Jain religious literature parallel to those of the Buddhists makes it always desirable to look there especially when we find Buddhist terms that raise difficulties. The Jains have a word, which looks as related to the Pali thiṇamiddha. This is either thiṇaddhi or thinagiddhi. The Sanskrit form of the former is styänarddhi; of the latter, styanagrddhi-'somnambulism'-under its infiuence a man may not only walk, but perform extremely violent and sinful acts, such as killing people, in his sleep. It is a form of Karma, which 'obscures' or 'hinders' belief (darbanavaraynta); it belongs to one group of five of that category -various degrees of 'sleep' and 'drowsiness'. We must accept the original identity

It is used with reference to Mahāvīra himself as well as with reference to 'one who is as holy as the Great Teacher, a Monk'. It is perhaps due to the Jain infiuence that the word in its Prākrit form came to be used and known even in Buddhist circles, and that is perhaps the reason why the form tāyi came to be used by the Buddhist Sanskrit writers.

INTRODUCTION
1638
Chronological connections
between between Jainism and Buddhism.-Thesis of COLEBROOKE: Mahavira would have been the master of Gautama Buddha. Criticism-Thesis of WILSON: Jainism would proceed from Buddhism analogous opinions of LASSEN and of WEBER. Criticism; resemblances and differences between Buddha and Mahavira and between their doctrines; chronological discussions the term Nirgrantha; the ideas of the epigraphy; the Nigantha Nataputta given to Mahavira. Conclusion: Buddha and Mahavira are two distinct personages but who lived at the same period.
Chronological discussions relating to the nirvana of Mahavira.
(1) After the 'Versus memoriales' of the 'Vicarasreni' of Merutunga, Mahavira might have died in 527 B.C. (2) After the 'Parisistaparvan' of Hemacandra, in 467 B.C. only. This last date would be the most probable; proofs in favour of this hypothesis.
Review on Bhadrabahu after: (1) the theravalls of the Kalpasitra, of the Avasyaka and of the Nandisütra; (2) the 'Rişimandalasätra' of Dharmaghosa and the 'Parisistaparvan' of Hemacandra; (3) the legends contained in different modern commentaries of the Kalpasutra.-In note (Pp. 12-13) text and translation of the 'Uvasaggaharastotra', attributed to Bhadrabahu.

A. WEBER-Uber die Samyaktvakaumudi, eine eventualiter mit 1001 Nacht auf gleiche Quelle Zuruckgehende indische Erzahlung. Berlin, 1889 (Sitzungsberichte der Koniglich Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften).
The 'Semayaktvakaumudi' presents, as for the positions of the personages, curious analogies with the 'thousand and one rights".
Reason of this analogy:
1.
It is necessary to reject the hypothesis of a casual coincidence to which the peculiarities and the details of the narrative are opposed.
The question of borrowing is difficult to solve; the uncertainty of the chronological datum.
In all probability, the 'Samyaktvakaumudt' proceeds from a proper Indian tradition, from which would proceed equally the analogous narratives of

1.
The Buddhistic recension is in generally better than the Jain recension under one or other of the three aspects. However, none of these two recensions contains original specific features. They are two subsequent recensions to the Brahmanical 'redaction, which must be considered as primitive.

Remarks on the antiquity of the Jainism. A proof in favour of this antiquity is furnished by an inscription of the year 79 of the Indo-scythian era (about the middle of the 2nd century A.D.). The siūpa of Mathura, it is said, should have been 'constructed by the two 'thupe devanirmite'. At this period their, the origin of the stūpa was so remote that it was lost in the legend.

J. HERTEL-Uber das Tantrakhyayika. Leipzig, 1904.
In the introduction. Pp. XXIV-XXVII. Mr. HERTEL indicates the general characters of the Jains recensions of the 'Pafchatantra'. There are two principal recensions the 'textus simplicior' and the edition of Pürṇabhadra still called 'textus ornatior'. These two recenisons do not derive any common origin. The 'textus ornatior' represents a combination of the 'textus simplicior' with the Tantrakhyayika, Kashmirian Brahminical recension. Pürnabhadra was seeking indeed to re-establish the fundamental text of the 'Panchatantra'. For him, the 'Tantrakhyāyika' was nearer than all other editions of the fundamental text, from which the 'textus simplicior' deviates at the same time by the contents and the order of the narration.

Certain accounts of the work of Meghavijaya [are, more ancient than parallel Buddhistic narratives. They are probably of Jaina origin.

The 'Samarāditya-sarksepa' is a sort of religious romance in 9 cantos. It was composed in Samvat 1324 [1268 A.D.). It is a Sanskrit summary of the Samarāiccakatha' of Haribhadra.
Preface. Review on Pradyumnasūri. He was born towards Samvat 1270. He belonged to the Chandra gaccha and was the disciple of Kanakaprabha. He was considered by his contemporaries as a critic of high authority. It is thus that Devasūri submitted to him his 'Upamitabhavaprapanchākatha-säroddhara (Samvat 1298). One can only attribute to him until now the 'Samarāditya-samksepa'.

Observation of Pandit Saminatha Aiyar in his edition of a portion of the Jivakachintamani, published in 1899. The pandit is of opinion that the Tamil Jivakachintamani is not an original work. The Sanskrit poem which treat of the story of Jivaka are based on the Jain purāņas. The original story of Jivaka is found in the Mahāpurāna.
Jivakachinlāmaņi was composed during the period ranging from the beginning of the 10th to the second half of the cent. A.D.

The Tamil Jivaka-chintamani' is not an original work. The source of it is principally the Sanskrit Gadya-Chintāmni'. Moreover the Sanskrit poems which deals with the history of Jivaka are based on the Jain Purānas in particular on the Mahāpurāņa', commenced by Jinasena and finished by Guņabhadra, in saka 820-897 A.D. On the other hand, according to Umāpati, 'Sivaite' writer who lived at the commencement of the 14th century, the Chola Anapaya read with pleasure the 'Jivakachintamani'. But this prince is identified as Kulottungo-chola Ist, who reigned from about 1070 to 1118.

The sixth Anga: Naya-dhammokahão (Jnatadharmakathas). The two parts. which constitute it: Näyäni (Jhätäni) and Dhammakahão (Dharmakathas). Relations between these two parts:
1. The first is much more extensive than the second proportion of 10 to 1.
The recitals of the first part are independent, the one from the other. Those of the second, on the contrary, resume the subject dealt within the initial chapter.
In the first part, the matter is (inspite of the title) of the Dharma: it is the principal part of the Anga: the second is only an appendix.
Signification of the word 'naya' (jñāta): it designates a determined kind of narratives, in which the latent thought appeared suddenly at the end. In the sixth. Anga, these recitals have always a religious object. They constitute two groups: the recitals of allegorical character, and those of legendary character.

.. a modarate attempt, so far as Pravacanasār is concerned has been already made (by A. N. UPADHYE) in the Journal of the University of Bombay, Vol. II, Part VI. Towards the problem of Kundakunda's date vide... Merkara Copper plates of 466 A.D. (looked upon as apocryphal by some) mention Kundakundānvaya, and Sarvårt hasiddhi (II, 10) of Pujyapāda quotes some gathas in the same order as found in Bāras Anuvekka of Kundakunda. A close study of their works shows that the relative chronology should be like this : Kundakunda, Umāsvāti, Samantabhadra, Siddhasena, and Pūjyapad (5th century A.D.).

Dr. L. ALSDORF of Hamburg expounds that apart from the two Kashmere Sanskrit versions of Guņādhya's Bịhatkathā, viz, Somadeva's Kathāsaritasāgara and Kșemendra's BỊhatkatha-Mañjari, there exists another version which has so far been overlooked. And that the Vasudevahindi by Sanghadāsa, a text in Prakrit prose, covering about 370 pages of quarto size. This Jain version is referred to thrice in the Avaśyaka Cūrni, which, therefore, leads to the conclusion that Vasudevahindi is prior to 6th century A.D. But its language is very old and it should, therefore, be much earlier. Thus, it is the oldest exiant version of Guņädhya's Bịhatkathā.

Antiquity of the Jains—a section among the Aryans opposed to the religions of sacrifice. The eastern Aryans were opposed to the sacrificial ritualism and were led by Ksatriya heroes who were believers in Ahiṁsā doctrine and as such were the forefathers of the Jainas.
Tamil literature refers to the 3 Sangams or Academies under whose guidance Tamil literature was cultivated. In the earlier works supposed to be Sangam literature the several collections such as the 8 collections, the 10 idylls etc., there is no reference to Sangam literature. The modern oriental scholars conclude that the whole tradition is fictious and was created by some fertile imagination. After elaborate discussion Mr. Sivaraja Pillar in his 'Chronology of the Early Tamils' writes about the Sangam tradition as entirely apocryphal and not deserving any serious historical consideration, the eigth century tradition is a faint reflex of the earlier sangam movements of the Jains. Vajranandi, a Jain grammarian and scholar went over to Madura with the object of founding a sangam there. That sangam could not have been anything else than a college of Jaina ascetscs and scholars engaged in a religious propaganda of their own. This movement must have first brought in the idea of a Sangam to the Tamil country. The orthodox Hindu party resorted to the creation of Sangams with divinity too playing a part therein, for the express purpose of adding to the authority and dignity of their literature. The very name sangam' are known to the early Tamils proclaims its late origin and to attempt to foisting the idea it signified on the so-called Sangam literature as its inspiring cause is little short of perpetrating a glaring and absured anachronism.
Vol. IV; No. III; 1938; Pp. 69-76.
Traces of Jain influence discernable in the earliest Tamil literature extant such as grammatical work of Agastya etc.
(1) Talkappiyama work on Tamil grammar also contains information about the social policy of the early Tamilians-its author, a student of Agastya; according to S. Vaiyapuri Pillai Tolkappiyar was a Jain-reasons given.
Kural-The ethical work 'Kural-a most important work in Tamil literature composed in the form of couplets known as Kural Venlea. It is a work based on the doctrine of Ahimsa. The work is claimed by almost all the religious sects of the Tamil land. The Jaina tradition associates this great ethical work with Elācāriyar of Sri Kundakundācārya of first century B.C. and the former half of the first century A.D.-unbiased Tamil scholars accept the Jaina authorship of this work.
cording to one tradition the author Tiruvalluvar was born of a Candai woman,

Vol. IV; No, IV; 1939; Pp. 101-108. Kural (contd.)- In the chapter on Dharma, the author says that it is far better and more virtuous to abstain from killing and eating any animal than to perform 1,000 sacrifices. The author would not have acquiesced in any form of Vedic sacrificial ritualism. In another section the author distinctly condemns the Bauddha principle of purchasing meat from the butcher. The only religion that conforms to the principle enunciated in the book is the religion of Ahimsā as upheld by the Jains. The Jaina commentator of the Tamil work Neelakesi freely quotes from Kural and introduces the quotations with the words 'as is mentioned in our scriptures'-the commentator considered this work as an important Jaina scripture. Prabodhacandrodaya, a non-Jain Tamil drama where the representatives of various religions are introduced on the stage, where the Jain Sannyasi is made to recite that particular verse from the Kural which praises the Ahimśā doctrine. In the eyes of this dramatist the Kural was characteristically a Jaina work.
Naladiyar-The work consists of 400 quatrains. The tradition supposes that each verse is composed by a separate Jaina monk--tradition given. It is one of the earliest didactic work in the Tamil language and is probably of the same age or slightly earlier than the Kural.
Aranericcāram-Aranericcāram--the essence of the way of virtue by Tirumunaippādiyar describes five Jaina moral principles-Ahimsa, Asteya, Satya, Brahmacarya and Parimita Parigraha.
Palamoļi or Proverbs by Huņrunaiyār Araiyanār contains principles of conduct and worldly wisdom. Tiņaimalai Noorraimbatu by Kaņmedaiyār treats of the principles of love and war.
Nanmanikkadigai by Vilambinathar deals with four important moral principles in the other works. Elati, Cardamon and others by Kanimedaiyar is supposed to contain five or six fragrant topics.

(i) Yośodhara Kavya : Nothing is known about its author except that he was a Jaina ascetic. From the nature of the story it is inferred that it is later than the Hindu doctrine of Yaga as reformed by Madhavācārya, i.e., the Vedic ritual could very well be continued without involving animal sacrifice, if a substitute for the animal be introduced in the same form made of rice-flour. The story rasodhara Katya is intended to reject this ritualism even with this substitute.

Mr. DIKSHITAR bases his conclusion that Ilango, the author of Silappadikāram could not have been a Jaina by faith for he attended the fire sacrifice performed by the Chera king, his brother, who is assumed to be a Sanatanist Hindu by faith. In Tamil, the term Velvi is always used to denote 'fire ritual while Veda-vevi is used to denote Vedic sacrifice involving animal slaughter. Fire ritual has never been condemned by Jains, while they were opposed to Vedic sacrifice on the ground of Ahimsā. Ilango was a Jaina by faith.

It is noteworthy that the Svetāmbara Jainas have preserved versions of the first eleven Angas but they take the twelfth Anga to be entirely lost. The eleven Angas are disowned by the Digambara school which, however, has scrupulously preserved the above mentioned portions of the twelfth Anga unknown to the Śvetāmbaras. The two traditions thus inscrutably seem to complement each other.

If Gaudasamgha cannot but mean a Samgha of Bengali provinance, is it possible to explain the reference in the grant to Somadeva as a student of the Gauda Samgha ? It may be suggested that Somadeva a pupil of the Gaudasamgha in Gaudadesa and one probably patronised by the Bodhgayā Rāștrakūtas migrated to Lemulavada under the Rāstrakūta feudatory. Chalukya Arikesarin and his successors, and either touched enroute Kanauj, the Cedi and the Rāstrakūta courts or after having come to Lemulavada, had occasions to visit the above three courts.

P. 133. Mānatunga, author of Bhaktāmara in praise of Rşabha in Sanskrit and the Bhavahara in Prākrit. Jaina monastic records place him in the 3rd century A. D. and other Traditions bring him down between the 5th and the 9th century A. D.
P. 134. Siddhasena Divākara's Kalyānamandira Stotra Pārsvanātha. Both these early Jaina hymns become the starting point of a large number of Jaina stotras of later times.
P. 139. Nemi-bhaktāmara of Bhavaprabha Sūri alludes to the legend of Neminātha and Rājamati. There are several Aita-śānti-stava, both in Sanskrit and Prākrit e.g. by Nandisena (earlier than 9th century), Jinavallabha (12th century), Jayasekhara and Santicandra Gani (16th century), which celebrate Ajita and Santi Tirthankaras. Vidyanandin wrote the Palrakesari-stotra in praise of Mahāvira,
P. 140. Besides eulogies particular Jinas, there is quite a number of stotras, generally known as Caturvimšati or Chaturvimśikā, in which all the 24 Jinas are extolled. Such stotras are composed by teachers such as Samantabhadra (c.a, in first half of the 8th century), Bappabhatti (C. 743-838), Sobhana (second half of the 10th century), Jinaprabha Süri (beginning of the 14th century) and others. In his Siddhi priya-stotra, Devanandin, who is probably not identical with the old Pujyapada, employs Antya-ramaka in the same order of syllables over nearly half the foot in two consecutive Vasantatilakā feet of each stanza. Sometimes the poems are what is called Şadbhäşā-nirmita, each stanza being written in a different language, the six language being Sanskrit, Mahārāștri, Māgadhi, Sauraseni, Paisaci, and Apabhraíba. Such stotras are the Parśva-jina-stavana by Dharmavardhana and the Santinātha-stavana by Jinapadma (first half of the 14th century). Some of the stotras have a distinctly instructive or philosophical colouring, such as Ekibhava-stotra and the Jñana-locanastotra of Vădirāja (about 1025 A.D.). The Vitaraga-stotra of Hemacandra is a poem in praise of Mahāvira but it is also a poetical manual of Jain doctrine.

Though the Cola princes in the Tamil country peresented Jainism the ruling princes of Ganga, Cālukya, Rāstraküta, Kadamba, Hoysala and other dynasties in Karnātaka were sympathetic to all religions and therefore they could easily take root and grow. Examples of Kannada words grouped under three heads—tatsama, tadbhava and Deśya given. Jains gave to Kannada grammar, a tinge of Sanskrit form.

The art of Tulsi owes much to Jain poet Swayambhu Dev (791 A.D.), the composer of the great epic Paumchariu (The Jain Rāmāyana) in Chaupias and Ghattas. The romantic and mystic flavour of Sufi poets like Jayasi owes to Muni Naya Nandi 1100 A.D., through his composition Sudarshan Chariu. Some lines of Kabir resemble with those of Muni Ram Singh (near about 1100 A.D.). Composition of epics in Hindi literature owes its origin to the Jain poets, the most important of which known uptill now, are acquainted herewith along with their works. Banarasidas (1586) was one of the few early prose writers of Hindi. His Ardhakat hānak (autobiography) is the only work of its kind in old Hindi. Pt. Daulatram Jain of Baswa (Madhya Pradesh) translated Jain Padma Purāņa of Ravishenācharya into Khari Boli in 1766 A.D.

Jinasenāchārya and Guņabhadrāchārya- Mahapurāņa in three handy volumes (Murtidevi Jain Granthamālā Sanskrit Series, Kasi), 1954.
The Sanskrit text, Hindi paraphrase, alphabetical Index of the verses and an Introduction in Hindi by Pannalal JAIN, Vol. III--preface in English by H.L. JAIN and A.N. UPADHYE.
The Mahapurāna (MP) or the Trişaști-lakşaņa-mahapurana-sam graha (TLMPS) is a great narrative of the ancient times, basically describing the lives of 63 salakapurşas, namely, 24 Tirthankaras, 12 Cakravartins, 6 Balabhadras, 9 Nārāyanas and 9 Pratinārāyaṇas recognised and honoured by Jainism. These biographies also cover their earlier births. These biographies embody in the work mythological, religious, dogmatical, sacramental and ritualistic details, and thus make the whole work almost an encyclopedia of Jainism. We get here a graphic description of the evolution of human society along the march of time and of what the great souls of the past did for man in the beginning. The MP. is a magnificent traditional history so far as the great heroes of Sramanic culture are concerned. This MP. has served as model to authors like Puspadanta, Hemacandra, Āsādhara, Cāmundarāja and the author of Tamil Śrīpurāņa, etc. who composed their works in Apabhramsa, Sanskrit, Kannada and Tamil. The MP. consisting of 76 Purāņas is divided into two parts-(1) Adipurāņa in 47 Parvans and Uttara-purāna in 29 Parvans. The total Granthagra comes to about 20 thousand ślokas of the Adipurāna, 42 Parvans and three verses more were composed by Jinasena (about 12 thousand ślokas) and the remaining work by his pupil Gunabhadra. The Adipurāna covers the biography of the first Tirthankara and first Cakravartin, and the Uttarapurāna deals with the lives of the remaining. Jainasena, the disciple of Virasena, whose Jayadhavala, commentary he completed in 837 A.D., occupies a unique place in Indian literature by both the quantity and quality of his contributions. His disciple Gunabhadra completed his Mahāpurāņa posthumously some year before 897 A.D. He was a contemporary of Rāstrakūta Amoghavarşa. Sometime before 783 A.D., he completed the Pārsvabhyudaya, a Sanskrit Kāvya, which incorporates in every verse one or two lines of the Meghadūla of Kālidäsa in their serial order, the remaining lines being composed by himself.

The Sugandha-daśami-kathā in Apabhramśa: It narrates the life of a rich man's daughter whose mother died while she was young. The father married again and had another daughter from his second wife. The step daughter was ill-treated and married to a cowherd, who ultimately turned out to be the king. The unfortunate daughter suddenly became a queen. Its two counter-parts in French and German. The German story (Ashputtel) was collected by J.L. Karl GRIMM-(1785-1863), while the time of French (story in Cabinet des Fees), writer Charles PARRAULT was from 1628 to 1703 A.D. The English version's title is Cindrella or The Little Glass Slipper. The date of the Apabhramsa story is uncertain but its manuscripts are dated earlier than the 17th century. Another is that of Srutasāgara, who lived about 1500 A.D. Thus the Indian story is the earliest of the versions mentioned above.

P. 112. As both the Pancarātras and the Bhagavatas believed deeply in the doctrine of ahiṁsā (non-killing), their ideas became the subject matter of many of the Purāṇic works, which were meant for saving the Vedic religion specially from the onslaught of Buddhism, Jainism and other non-Vedic and anti-Vedic religious systems. With the rise and spread of Buddhism, Jainism and other non-Vedic and anti-Vedic religious faiths, the protagonists of the Vedic way of life must have been actively busy in devising ways and means for creating a favourable field for the Vedas in popular mind. As a matter of fact, during the few centuries preceding and following the beginning of the Christian era, the Smarta adherents compiled a number of works entitled 'Vişnudharma', 'Sivadharma', Sauradharma, and so on, prescribing religious and other duties to the respective sectaries.
P. 149. Vişnudharma in Chap. 105, gives a dismal picture of Kali age-While other wicked Śūdras will turn Śākyas, Srāvakas, Nirgranthas and Siddhaputras in the Kali age'.
Pp. 292-93. In his smộti-candrikā, I, Pp. 18-23. Devanabhatta quotes from the earliest Adi-purāņa fifteen verses on the selection of a habitable tract of land. Dharma-deśa and adharma-deśa--the latter was to be shunned. A person born in Āryāvarta was not allowed to go beyond the rivers Narmadā (in the south), Sindhu (in the north and west) and Karatoya (in the east). The people of Kanchi, Kosala, Saurastra and Devarastra, of the two countries known by the name Kaccha, and of Sauvira and Konkana were very much condemned; not to reside permanently in those tracts of land which were watered by the 'five rivers and were known by the names Āratta. People who went beyond the Narmadā, Sindhu and Kāśi (river Kośi) and to the western side of Padmā and lived there for a period longer than that required for visiting the holy places, were sure to visit the hells after death. No marriage or funeral ceremony, nor any sacrifice was to be performed in Anga, Vanga, Kalinga, Vindhya and Malavaka, in the countries lying on the south of the Narmadā, on the north of the Sindhu, and in Paundra, Saurastra, Caidya, Kerala and Magadha. If a twice-born man chanced to go, out of his own accord and not for visiting holy places to Saurastra, Sindhu, Sauvira, Avantya, Dakșinăpatha, Kalinga or other bordering countries, he was ex-communicated and was to be purified by sacraments.

Pp. 361-365. Cilappadikaram consists of not more than 5,000 lines of poetry and celebrates the great achievements of Kannaki (the heroine of the poem) and of a Pandya and a Chera king, who are to be regarded as the other heroes of the poem. Kannaki stands pre-eminent. Her essential nobility shines throughout the book. The poet, Ilanko, expresses the significance of human achievements. At the time of composition of the epic, the second century A.D. the Tamils had become a wellsettled race.
The Pāndyan king deserves to be regarded as a hero of the epic. Senkuttuvan, the Chera king, has the valour of Achilles; his victory in many battles mentioned.
Ilanko had a rich supply of stories which can be detached and enjoyed by themselves. He avoided stock phrases and embellished his poem by fashioning his words with care and artistry. Many are the ways in which he describes familiar things in his book whick show a pleasing variety in language. Ilanko's characters speak with variety. His style is ornate in places.
Cilappadikaram contains a wide sweep of history, philosophy, religion and ethics. It contains accounts of the relationship between the Chola, the Pāndya and the Chera kings. Philosophy is conveyed through the characters. Ilanko thought that poetry was intended not merely to beguile one's leisure but it should inspire and instruct. All in all, llanko has achieved unqualified success as a poet and takes a high rank among the epic poets of the world.

This is an authoritative and systernatic English translation with annotations in foot-notes of the Syādvadmañjari (of Mallisena-sūri) which is a learned and concise Sanskrit commentary on the Ahyayogavyavacchedikā of Hemacandra. After the sad demise of the author it is seen through the press by Edward CONZE who observes thus in his Prefatory Note: 'It not only throws much light on the philosophical views of the Jains themselves but also on the philosophical debates so popular in the Indian Middle Ages. Prof. THOMAS planned this work as a sequel and complement to the Pravacanasāra, published by the Jain Literary Society in Cambridge in 1935, and he devoted so much of his time to it because he had a high opinion about the intrinsic value of the Jain position, which in his view compared favourably with the so much better known tenets of the Vedānta and Mādhyamakas'.

Pp. 99-100. Part I. Section 7. Influence of the Epics on Indian life and literature by: Nilmadhava SEN.--The influence of the Rāmāyana on Jain literature. Jains adopted many popular epic stories and episodes including Ramayana and Mahabharata but with wide deviation from the original in favour of Jainism. The earlist Laina Ramayana epic is Paumacariya by Vimala Süri (in about the 3rd or 4th century A.D.) written in pure Mahärästri Prakrit. Other notable works in Sanskrit are Padmapuräna by Ravişena and Trișașți-salakäpurușa-charita by Hemachandra.
Pp. 102-103. The earliest Kannada Rāmāyana (Ramachandra-charita-purana) written by Nagachandra (c. 1100 A.D.) gives a Jaina version of the Rāma story and differs considerably from the original works. Other Jaina versions of Ramayana in Kannada are the kumudendu Rāmāyaṇa (c. 1275 A.1).), the Rama-Katha-Valära (c. 1297 A.D.) by Devachandra and the Rama-Vijaya-Charita by Devappa (16th century A.D.)
Pp. 109-110. The influence of the Mahābhārata in Jaina literature. The Jaina version of the Mahābhārata is termed Harivarśa, where Krsna is the major, Balarama is the second important figure, and the arch-enemy (Prati-vāsudeva) is Tarāsandha. The fight between the Kauravas and Pandavas is almost omitted in the śvetāmbara version, while the Digambaras closely follow the Brahmanical version. All the stories get mixed up with the life of Ariştanemi, a cousin of Vasudeva. Almost all the characters are converted to Jainism,
The following are the Jain versions of the Mahābhārata and its stories -
1. Harivansa Purana of the Digambara sect by Jinasena in 60 chapters completed in 783 A.D.
2. Uttarapurana of Gunabhadra (9th century A.D.)--a part of Mahapurāna.
3. Påndava Purāņa of śubhachandra (written in A.D. 1501).
4. Šatrunjaya Mahatmya’s tenth to twelfth sargas deal with the Mahabharata story.

A. N. UPADHYE-Lohacarya's Aradhana, A missing work. (Jain Ant., vol. XXII, No. I); Arrah, 1963. Pp. 1 to 4.
Prabhácandra, in his Kathakosa (close of the 11th century A.D.), believed that there was a bigger Aradhana of Lohacarya. Very lately a Mss. of a Prakrit commentary on the Pancasamgraha has come to light. The opening sections of it, which is more or less mangala discussion, formed a part of some Aradhana text and mentions Lohäcārya as the first author of the Aradhana. This evidence is a pointer to the existence of a Mss, of the Aradhana by Loharcārya and it goes to confirm the observation of Prabhäcandra. Any Mss. of it is traceable or not in any of the Bhandaras is a point.

G. BÜHLER-The Digambara Jains. (Indian Antiquary, vol. VII, Pp. 28-29), Bombay, 1878.
Reference of visit to Delhi and to Jaipur, and some talks of the author with the Digambara Jainas of these two towns. The Digambaras are scattered in the eastern Rajputana, the Punjab, the north-western provinces, the Central India Agency and Guzrat. Their places of teaching (Vidyāsthāna) are the following towns : Jaipur, Delhi, Gwalior, Ajmer, Nāgor in the Rājputānā. Rāmpur-Bhänpur near Indore, Karangi and Surat. The Digambaras have the claim of representing the first Jaina church so they call their community the 'Mülasangha'.
They are divided into ascetics and laic adepts. The ascetics comprise the Bhattārakas or grand priests, and the pandits or ordinary ascetics. They constitute four sects; the Nandigaccha, the Sarasvati gaccha, the Bharati gaccha and the Syena gaccha. They remain no more today in the state of nudity; they cover themselves with a cha dar, which they leave moreover at the time of meal.
The laic adepts from three classes; the Khandarwāls, the Agarwala and the Bahirwāls. The literature of the Digambaras is divided into for Vedas :
1. The Prathamānuyoga comprising historical and legendary works : the 24 Purāņas, the Uttarapurāna, the Harivamsa Purāņa, etc.

2. The Karanānuyoga, together with cosmological works, such as the Trilokasāra, the Süryaprajñapti etc.
3. The Dravyānuyoga, which explains the philosophical doctrines and includes, among other books, the Pravacanasāra, the Astasahasri, the Rajavārtika, etc.
4. The Caraṇānuyoga, which deals with the customs, the cult etc.; to this division belongs the Trivarnācāra, the Mūlācāra etc.
The Digambars admit the authority of several Śvetāmbara canonical treatises, but reject a great number of them.

E. THOMAS-Jainism. (I.A., Vol. VIII, Pp. 30-31), Bombay, 1879.
Note on the priority of the Jainism in comparison to the Buddhism.
The Jainas, Svetāmbaras and Digambaras all together, place the date of Mahāvira in 526-527 B.C. This date is confirmed by several dynastic lists. Besides, the date of the death of Buddha is very disputed. That which is accepted most generally is 543 B.C. But this determination enfolds more than one error. In 1854, CUMMINGHAN proposed 477 B.C. Then, being rallied to the hypothesis of COLEBROOKE who makes Buddha a disciple of Mahāvira, he rectified this date to 478 B.C. Since then the hypothesis of COLEBROOKE has been confirmed by several important proofs, among others a passage of the 'Bhagavati'. The same note is also inserted in the proceedings of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1879, Pp. 1-4.
2540
H. JACOBI--On Mahāvira and his Predecessors. (I.A., Vol. IX, Pp. 158-163). Bombay, 1880.
The identification between Nigantha Nātaputta and Mahāvira is legitimate. The forms of the words Nigantha and Nātaputta in the language of the Jains and that of the Buddhists. It results from this linguistic investigation that Nigantha Nātaputta must have played a role in the most ancient Buddhistic tradition. The doctrines of Nataputta and of the Niganthas in general according to the Buddhists. These doctrines are analogous to those of the Jainism. The opinions of the other Tirthakaras. At the time of Mahāvīra, the Jaina ideas were current in India. The Niganthas existed long time before him. Mahāvīra appeared thus as the reformer of a sect already existing. The founder of this sect was probably Pārsva. Among the Tīrthakaras, he alone, indeed, appeared to have been a historical personage; the others were of the domain of the fable and fiction.

Pp. 335-338. Chronological ideas furnished by the Jaina writings. The exact date of the death of Mahavira would be 460 and not 526 B.C. Devardhigani, who, according to the tradition, should have fixed the Jaina canon, lived 980 years after the death of Mahāvira, that is to say, in 454 or rather in 520 A.D. At the same period (980 years after the death of Mahavira), the Kalpasūtra of Bhadra. bāhu was revised and read before Dhruvasena Ist (of the dynasty of Valabhi), in order to console him for the death of his son.
Siddhasenasüri must have been the adviser of Vikramaditya and would have altered the Samvat era. The date which is assigned to him, is 470 after the death of Mahāvīra. The date attributed to Mänatunga (before 454 or 520 A.D.) lacks historical foundations.

2. The difference of moral and of doctrine between the church of the South and that of the North, already manifest in the ancient time, led towards the commencement of the Christian era to antagonism that is ascertained today between the Digambaras and the Svetämbaras,

General sketch all together historical and dogmatic of the Jaina religion: however, the historical point of view is predominant. The Jainas are especially numerous in the provinces of the west and of the north-west of India, as well as in the southern Dravidian districts. The two principal sects: The Digambaras and the Svetambaras-they were already separated before the first century of the Christian era. Organisation: the ascetics and the adepts. The doctrine in general; the deliverance and the paths of three Jewels:
1. The real faith: the Jinas.
2. The real knowledge: the nine truths: cosmology and dogmatics.
3. The real guidance: moral: the five oaths; the ascetic discipline and the rules of guidance of the laic adepts. Cult of the Jains. The cloisters and the development of the Jainism. Wording of the doctrine: the Angas. The Jainism is independant of the Buddhism. The resemblances between the two religions are explained by the fact that they are born in the same period and from the same movement of reaction against the Brahmanism.

Historical review on Mahavira. The ideas of the Buddhistic canon of Ceylon on Mahāvira and the Jainism. Historical ideas after the edicts of Asoka, the inscriptions of the king Khāravela (2nd century B c.) and those of Mathurā. Comparison of these references with the contents of the Kalpasūtra. Conclusion : The Jainism and the Buddhism are developed in a way parallel in the same period and in the same country. This account is followed by nine pages of complementary notes in which one finds the most precious historical, epigraphical and bibliographical informations.

Study complementary to two memoirs of the same author on the Upālisülta, namely:
1. The sütra of Upāli.
2. The commentary of the Upali Suttam.
Summary of the paragraphs :
1. The person of Nāțaputta-His name. His polemics. His residence. His death. His role.
2. The school-Nigantha---signification of the name. Bearing of the Niganthas. Composition of the Nigantha school. Destiny of the Nigant ha school.
3. Nigantha doctrine---The four abstentions. Prohibition of cold water. Suppression of the suffering. The darda. Nigantha pantheon. Tripartite division of the ten forbidden actions.
4. The role of the intention in the actions. The intention according to Gautama, the intention according to Nātaputta.
5. Niganthas and Jains. Nātaputta and Mahāvīra.
6. Resemblances of Gautama and of Nātaputta. Conclusion : There are great probabilities in order that Gautama may have been during an undecided duration the disciple of Nātaputta, and that the Buddhism may be a rebellious and independant offshoot of the Nigantha school as the Jainism is the faithful and legitimate offshoot of it, the real representative.'

Pārsvanatha can be considered as a historical personage. He was undoubtedly a man, whose moral and religious tendencies charmed Mahavira. There would not be any difficulty to admit that such a man had lived during the period of the Brahmanas or at the end of this period.

The Jains give to the Swastika the first place among their eight symbols. It is for them the emblematical figure of a Siddha. Indeed, the central point (bindu) represent the life (jiva), and the four branches, the four conditions of the future. life (to become god; to go to the hell; to be born again in human form; to be born again in the body of an inferior animal). But in the swastika these four branches are bent back and like closed, for the Siddha is freed from all new birth.

Dependance of the Buddhistic and Jaina monastic rules in comparison with the Brahmanical rules. Rigidity of the Jaina monastic rules.
The laic adepts were in more close relations with the monks to the Jains than to the Buddhists.
These relations, as M. HOERNLE has shown it, explain in a large measure the persistence of the Jainism in India, when the Buddhism has succumbed.

Had it been a country where people had quarreled amongst themselves, it would not have been populous and wealthy. The origin given by the Sanskrit Grammarians appears unsatisfactory and unfounded.

The Jain Uttarādhyayana Sūtra (XXI, 1-4, translated in sacred books of the East) relates the story of a merchant named Pälita, who departs from Champā, on a journey by boat to the city of Pihumda. The Hāthigumphā inscription of Khāravela mentions Pithuda which may be read as Pithumda, which would become Pohumda in Prākrit. Ptolemy mentions Pitundra and places it between the deltas of the Godavari and Mabānadi. We must look for the city between Chicacola, and Kaling-apatam, if Ptolemy's information approximates to the truth, The name of Pithumda connected with the name of a people-Tuhunda.

"Were the matter res-integra, I would be inclined to hold that modern research has shown that Jains are not Hindu dissenters but that Jainism has an origin and history long anterior to the Smritis and commentaries which are the recognised authorities on Hindu Law and Usage. In fact Mahāvira, the last of the Jain Teerthankaras, was a contemporary of Buddha, and died about 527 B.C. The Jain religion refers to a number of previous Teerthankaras, and there can be little doubt that Jainism as a distinct religion was flourishing several centuries before Christ. In fact Jainism rejects the authorities of the Vedas which form the bedrock of Hinduism and denies the efficacy of various ceremonies which Hindus consider essential."

The naked Jain ascetics were called Digambara, sky-clad.

P. C. Nahar--A note on the Svetämbara and Digambara Sect. (I.A. vol. LVIII.e 1929, Bombay).
Pp. 167-168. The Jaina ascetics of the period of Pārsvanātha and those of predecessor's times used to wear clothes. Fashion of discarding clothes during the regime of Mahāvīra, due to the prevalence of extreme asceticism at the time.
The word Nigrațnha, did not literally mean without any clothes or naked, but did mean without any bond, or free from bondage of Karma. Among the Digambaras nudity has survived even to the present day. The ancient images of Tirthankaras consecrated before the division cannot properly be said to belong to any particular sect ; rather they belong to the Jains as a whole. Seating images without any signs of nudity, which can be assigned almost with certainty to early times before the division. Denying woman the possibility of full spiritual emancipation led to the schism.
Mahāvira established order of the Sri-sangha or Caturvidha-sangha, composed of sādhus and sadhuis, śrāvakas and śrāvikas, with equal share in the order. The Digambars advocate most conservatives; they discarded the then existing Jain canons, which are respected and recognised by the Svetämbaras. The Digambars place the origin of the Svetāmbars at a very late period. The story of Devanandā and Harinegameshi (SMITH's Jain stūpa and other Antiquities of Mathura ; p. 25) discarded

Sanjaya Belatthiputta : he promulgated independent agnostic-relativistic speculations, before the time of Buddha--the existence or non-existence of a thing can be expressed from 7 different stand-points. These same 7 modes are also in Jain Logic-Saptabhangi-Vada' or 'Syadvāda'. Closely akin to Jain Philosophy is the system of the Ajivikas which flourished at the time of Mahavira and Gautama Buddha. They were also called Achelakas, i.e. the unclothed ones, fiom the nakedness of their monks; the souls are divided into 6 categories of different colour', which seems to correspond to the 6 lesyäs of Jain Dogmatic. They believe everything to depend on Niyali, the necessity resulting from Karma.

Tradition accepts Akalanka as the author of the Svarupasambodhana ; and even Vimala, the author of the Saptahhangitarangini has adopted this tradition. It is shown in this note that this tradition is questioned by a Kannada commentary on it and by Padmaprabha's commentary on Niyamasāra, which state that Mahasena is the author. Then a modest attempt is made to settle the period of Mahasena by distinguishing him from three other Mahasenas.

A. N. UPADHYE-rapaniya Sangha- A Jaina Sect. (The J.U.B., 1, 4, Pp. 224-31, Bombay, May, 1933).
The Jaina church was subjected to many schismatic divisions almost from the days of Mahāvira.
Even in the main divisions of Svetambara and Digambara there have been many subdivisions which are noted in this paper. Here are discussed many details about the Yapanlya Sangha which is often mentioned in epigraphic records. The traditional origin of this sect, is narrated; and it is shown how this was criticised by both Svetämbaras and Digambaras.
Epigraphic references show that the monks of the rapaniya Sangh lived in Karnataka and its bordering districts from the 5th to the 14th century A.D. It is concluded that the Yapaniyas were absorbed among the Digambaras in the South. Sākatāyana, the Sanskrit grammarian, belonged to this Sangha. In order to facilitate further studies the teachers of this Sangha are listed alphabetically.

A. N. UPADHYE--A Mss. of Varängacarita. (Annals of the B.O.R.I., XIV, 1-2, Pp. 61-79, Poona, 1933).
It was stated some twenty years back that Ravişeņa (A.D. 677) had composed a Varāngacarita besides his Padmacarita. This interpretation of the verse in question was wrong; and it is shown with fresh evidence that Jațila was the author of the Varāngacarita. Jațila, Jațācārya and Jațāsimha nandi are the names of one and the same author who can be put in the 7th century AD, at the latest. It is shown that Jinasena has taken much material from the Varāngacarita for his Mahāpurāņa; and that this is perhaps one of the earliest epic Kāvyas of the Jainas From the Koppala inscription, it is clear that Jațācārya belonged to that part of South India. There is one more Varāngacarita in Sanskrit by Vardhamāna (13th century A D.); and there is also a Kannada Varängacarita by Dharani P.ndita (16th century AD.).

Buddhists describe the Nirgrantha as a recluse free from bonds (Dialogues of the Buddha, vol. II, Pp. 74-75). Nirgranth-in Upanişadas; Padma-Purāņa, VayuPurāņa; in Pițaka and works; in the seventh pillar edict of Asoka, in the copper-plate of the Kadamba King Siva Mragesa Varma (5th cent. A.D.); in the sculpturesAyāgapatta (Q 2) two naked Jain saints: flying above on both sides of the stupaCharana Munis; the Paharapur copper plate of 479 A.D. records a donation to the Nirgrantha ascetics.

Existence of a few ancient temples in Erode Taluq and one image on a rock at Tirumūrthi Hill; existence of the name of Bastipurām (Basti is the Jain temple) to a deserted site at Vijiamangalam and by the survival of two Jain families of priests, one at Vijiamangalam and the other at Pundurai in the Erode Talug, it can be inferred that the Jain Religion made inroads into Kongu Nadu, but could not make a permanent mark into the affairs of the Kongu people. Even today the people who reside at the next doors to the Jain temple do not know that the temple represents a different religious ideal from theirs. Some think that the Jain image

is that of another form of Śiva and call it Ammanesvar, meaning thereby by the naked God.
P. 88. There are some natural caverns on the sides of the Arunattar Hill near Pugalur which could be ascribed to the 3rd century B.C. They contain stone beds with inscriptions. Similar beds in the Aivar Malai in the Palani Taluq: on the Trichangodu Hill and Vellimalais: Brihatkathakośa of Harishena states that the Jain Sangha went to the South in the directions of the Punnata country. This Pro. vince was Kitipuram (Kittur on the Kabbini River-Ind. Ant. XVIII, P. 366).
P. 89. At Tirumurthi Hills, about 12 miles south of Udumalpet, there is a big boulder 25 feet in diameter with a Jain image engraved on it. From inscriptions it was known as Ammana Samudram; the deity known as Ammaneswara. The Jain monks located their centre at such an ideal locality. The Nayakas and their feudatories, would have erased all relics of Jainism. The Jain image has assumed the name of Tirumurthi, the Hindu Trinity combined into one. The priests of the locality attributed the Purāņic story of Anusuya and Athri rishi to this place and quite recently a local Sthala purānam has been spun by a local Pandit with that story as the basis. This is how certain religions disappear giving place to a more prevalent religion.
P. 90. The stronghold of Jainism seems to have been the Erode taluq in and around Vijiamangalam in a purely Tamil country of the type of Kongu Nadu shows that it ought to have a foreign origin. The folk-lore current in the place also shows tinge of Jainism. This must have been a colony of Jains as evidenced from the existence of the name, Bastipuram. The Jain temples in the surroundings are very old and are in ruins. A recent act of Vandalism of a Sanyasi has removed the ruins of the temple on the fine conical hill near Vijiamangalam and the beautiful image in it and replaced an ugly temple with a lingam in it. The images of
Tirthankaras in these temples are fine pieces of sculpture. The roof in the Vijiamangalam temple contains the life of Rişabha Tirthankara engraved in relief work which is a beautiful piece of sculpture.
The following are the temples now
found in the Erode
Pp. 90-91. Taluq :
(1) Vijiamangalam-4 miles from the Railway station of the same name; temple of Chandraprabha ; popularly known as Nettai Gopuram as it stands tall and erect; has 5 halls, contains statues of Chandraprabha, Vardhamāna, Anantanātha with 13 small figures around it, Kushpanini or Dharmadevi, Rishabha. The fifth hall-the biggest, the terrace has the history of Adiśwara or Rishabhanātha

engraved on it, description given. A mānastambhı. Five inscriptions copied from this temple, others mutilated. Stone pillar inscription commemorating the Nisidika of Pullappa, sister of Chāmunda Rāja. Inscription dated 1163 of Kulottunga Chola, a Kongu Chola (1149-1163), records gift of land to Virasanghatap iramballi of Vijiamangalam Third inscription dated 1267 A,D. The fourth dated 1412 A.D.-- of the Vijianagar King Harihara Rāja III. This temple has been in a flourishing state between the 12th and the 14th-15th centuries.
P. 92. (2) Arasnamalai.-- This is a fine conical hill near the Railway road south of Vijiamangalam temple. The deity on the hill was Neminātha. The temple fell in ruins and recently a Siva Sanyāsi pulled the building down and threw the fine idol away and erected an ugly Siva temple near it. The Yakshi temple still stands; the Yakshi Kushpanini is now in the Vijiamangalam temple.
(3) Sinapuram.-- 8 miles from Vijiamangalam on the road side, a small shrine of Ādiśvara, 21 feet in height. Kongumandala Sathakam says--this was the birth place of Pavanandi, the Great Tamil Grammarian.
(4) Thingalore (ancient Chandrapuri) - 4 miles from Sinapuram, the deity is Pushpanātha or Pushpadanta; Brahma Yaksha figure 3 feet high-small Tirthankara on his crown ; inscription dated 1045 of the reign of Vikrama Chola Konathan, a Kongu Chola; Sandiravasadi; the famous temple of Appichimar Matam had some connection with Jainism.
(5) Vellodu-3 miles south of Perundurai Railway Station. The deity is Adiśvara.
(6) Pundurai-4 miles from the former, towards the east. The deity is Pārsvanātha - 2 feet high. Another Jain temple at Palankarai near Avanashi. The Jains were generally scholars and they mastered the language of whichever country they immigrated to. They influenced and aided a great deal the development of Telugu and Kanarese literatures. Tamil literature was at one stage under their patronage. The literary activities of Kongu Nadu were under their hands. Kongu Vel Ma Kadai, the Tamil version of Brihatkatha, was their work by the famous poet Kongu Vel who lived at Vijiamangalam more than a dozen centuries ago. Their latest poet Karmega Kavi, compiled Kongumandala Sathakam and thereby preserved all the folk-tales of Kongu to posterity. The rhetorician Gunaveera Pandit, the grammarian Pavanandi and the commentator Adiyarkunallar are attributed to this land. Their influence has made Vijiamangalam as one of the great 24 Jain Centres on earth.

According to JACOBI, Parsva was the founder of Jainism. Jaina tradition unanimous in making Rishabha, the first Tirthankara as its founder. There may be something historical in the tradition which make him the First Tirthankara.
Ramprasad CHANDA remarks that Yoga is common to all Indian religions but the Kayotsarga (dedication of the body) posture is peculiarly Jain. In the Adipurana (xviii) Kayotsarga posture is described in connection with the penances of Rishabha or Vrishabh, the first Jina. A standing image of the Jina Rishabha in Kayotsarga posture on a stelle in the Curzon Museum, Mathura, closely resembles the pose of the standing deities on the Indus seals. The standing deity figured on seals 3 to 5 may be the proto-type of Rishabha. (Modern Review, August 1932, Pp. 156-159).
The Hathi Gumpha inscription mentions the image of Agra Jina, the first? Jina, Rishabha. Rishabha is regarded as the founder of Jainism,

Origin of Hinduism and Jainism lost in obscurity. Tenets and practices similar in all religions. Some of the practices in Jainism vehemently attacked by Hindus and Buddhists were included in their own religious doctrines.
Achelakas (Jain naked saints) and their practices described by Buddba in Angutlara Nikaya-Achelaka Bagga ; Manosoathapurani and Dandavaggo. Hindus also have naked saints e. g. Sivaite sect. Siva and Kali are naked. Paribrājakas and nudity. Non-bathing non-cleaning and spare eating common to the Jains, the Buddhists and the Hindus. Rules regarding eating, sleeping, waking, movements and action in these three religions. Rules regarding staying in one place during the rainy season also common. Buddha allowed saints to live in Bihārs. The Panchasila of the Buddhists and the yāmas of the Hindus are the same as five Mahabratas of the Jains.
Seeing these similarities in the rules for ascetics, western scholars like Max MULLER in Hilebert Lectures, BÜHLER in his translation of the Baudhayana Sūtra. KERN in his History of Buddhism in India, and JACOBI in his introduction to the translation of the Jain Sütras have come to the conclusion that the originals of the monastic orders of the Jainas and Buddhists are to be found in the Hindu ascetic,

This work is intended to expound the doctrine of Ahimsa in all its aspects, and from the same point of view it examines other systems of Indian thought, like Buddhist (Kundalakesi-vārda, Arkachandravada, Mokkalavada, Buddhavāda), Ājivikarāda, Sankhyažāda, Vaisi sika-vādi, Veda-V'üda and Bhūca-vāda (materialistic school).

If more materials become available from the Paresnāth Hill, it is likely that racial differences may be found constant between the Paresnath form and the typical form from the Himalays, indicating thereby that isolation between the two forms probably occurred in the post-glacial period about 20,000 to 25,000 years ago. The second point is that isolation has not been the result of any fortuitous occurence but is due to some palaeographical factors.
During the period of glaciation of the Himalayas, the atmosphere was damper in the plains of India but even then the dampness in the plains at sea-level could not have been of the same kind as it is to be found now either in the E. Himalayas or at the summit of the Paresnāth Hill. For the migration of this lizard, as well as of Amblyceps, a continuity of low ranges of hills between the foothills of Nepal and the Parsenāth Hill seems almost a necessity. So besides humidity, temperature has been also a factor governing its distribution.

A. N. UPADHYE-Mystic Elements in Jainsm. (Jain Ant. vol. III; No. II; Arrah; 1937; Pp. 27-30).
Some aspects of mysticism; mysticism in Jainism; elements of mysticism in Jainism. Jainism contains all the essentials of mysticism. The rigidity of the code of morality prescribed for a Jaina saint gives no scope for Jaina mysticism to stoop to low levels of degraded tantricism. Sex-impulse is considered by Jaina moralists as the most dangerous impediment on the path of spiritual realisation, so sensual consciousness has no place whatsoever in Jaina mysticism. The routine. of life prescribed for a Jaina monk does not allow him to profess and practise miracles and magical feats for the house-holder with whom he is asked to keep very little company.

M. C. JAIN-History and Principles of Jaina law-Jain law and the law courts (Jain Ant. vol. III, No. I); Arrah, 1937. Pp. 9 to 15.
The antiquity and independence of Jainism once recognised, the law for the Hindus would not apply to Jainas, if theology has anything to do with jurisprudence and the fundamentals of the two religions differ. Jainas differ particularly from the Brahmanical Hindus in their conduct towards the dead omitting all obsequies after the corpse is buried or burnt. They also regard the birth of a son as having no effect on the future state of his progenitor and consequently adoption is a merely temporal arrangement and has no spiritual object.' In the Jaina law of inheritance, the widow precedes the son. Females occupy a respectable position in Jaina society, and enjoy equality under the law. The daughter's son is at par with the son's son. Jaina law favours separate living as against the Joint family system of the Hindus.

The second part of this brochure deals with the philosophy of the Jainas, which denies Advaitism or oneness, that spirit of Jiva alone is real but posits that Matter is as real and eternal as the spirit. It is observed that the Jaina philosophy is a live philosophy, ennobling and assuring and also optimistic. The authoress is of opinion (p. 42), wrongly, we think, that the Upanişads have indented for their philosophy on Jainism, and says that the major parts of the former are due to the desire of the Upanişadic writers to plant, unsuccessfully, their pet theories of oneness on to the Spirit and Matter of Jainism.

P. 315. Vegetarianism does not form part of the culture of the pastoral Aryans. Even today it is confined only to the Panchadravidas, that is to say, Brahmins of the south. The Brahmins of the north do as a matter of fact eat fish. It is connected with Jainism and not with Buddhism as Buddha himself and the Buddhists outside India are mostly non vegetarians. Among Hindus it is connected with the religious revival ushared by Shankaracharya and the spread of Vaishnavism so that those non-Brahmins who are Vaishnavites give up eating flesh.

Bimbisara captured Rajagraha from the last Barhadratha king Ripunjaya, who then shifted to Avanti which was his Western province. Ripunjaya was murdered by his minister Punika or Munika, who put his own son Pradyota on the throne of Avanti. Pradyota considered himself to be the rightful claimant of the Magadha throne and Bimbisāra to be an usurper and therefore he took up an inimical attitude towards Bimbisāra and began preparation for attacking Magadha. But just at this time Pradyota got an additional reason for enmity with Bimbisara. Bimbisära started favouring the newly started unorthodox religions-Jainism and Buddhism. And Pradyota, who ruled at Avanti, must have thought himself bound to defend the Brahmana faith. Avanti, had always been the stronghold of Saivism, He had, therefore, a double reason to crush the Magadha ruler. But Prodyota was not able to put his plans into execution, for he soon died. Cherished wishes of Pradyota were fulfilled only in the last days of the king Visakhayupa. For it was in his days and under his patronage that the Brahmanas rallied round a common banner. It was in the village called Sambhala (Sambhlagam), that a son was born to the Brahman Chief named Vişnuyasas. This Brahman boy who was called Kalki, led a regular campaign against Buddhism and Jainism. He brought together a number of princes and formed a Confederacy. The confederacy led the armies against Magadha under the Generalship of Kalki. The name of the king against

whom the allied forces fought is given as Jina and Sandhodani and the opponents are generally called Bauddhas. Thus the cause of the allies was fully vindicated. It was both a political and a religious conquest that they made. Kalki ousted both Buddhism and Jainism out of the Northern India. Buddhism had to go without an imperial patronage till the days of Asoka and by that time the Brahmanas hadenough time and scope to re-establish their own faith and also to be catholic enough to incorporate some of the essential tenets of Buddhism in their own system, as a result of which Buddhism or Jainism could never take the place of paramount religion in India. Herein lies a link of our religio-political history which is preserved for us in the Kalki Purana.

It was all along believed that the author of this Jivatattvapradipika is Keśavavarni, but in this paper by presenting fresh evidence, it is conclusively proved that the author is one Nemicandra, different from the author of the Gommatasóra, who wrote his Sanskrit commentary following Kesavavarni's Kannada commentary. This Nemicandra was a contemporary of Vijayakirti who was honoured by Malli Bhupāla and thus flourished at the beginning of the 16th century AD.

Padınaprabha has written a Sanskrit commentary on the Niyamasāra of Kundakunda. Some personal details are gathered here from his stray remarks in his commentary. Among the works mentioned by him, it is shown that the Mārgaprakaśn and Srutabindu are not so far discovered and the Tattvānuśāsana known to Padmaprabha was different from that of Rāmasena available today. Padmaprabha is assigned to the last quarter of the 12th century and the first quarter of the 13th century.

P. 119. The literature of the South is essentially Aryan in character with equally indubitable traces of other than Aryan features in it.

The work being eclectic in character, Buddhists, Jains and Brahmanas claim the work as relating to their particular form of religion. The date of the Kural is posterior to the Artha śāstra,
P. 145. The Tēvāram hymner Appar, a Jain first and a Saiva afterwards, was a contemporary of the great Pallava Mahendra Varman whose conversion to Saivism is said to have been due to him. His companion, Sambandar, was a contemporary of Mahendra's son and successor Narasimha Varman; but neither of these rulers can be considered as a special patron of either of the authors. The Pallavas do not show themselves to have been in any special sense patrons of Tamil literature as their predecessors were.

Jainism flourished in the Tamil country from the earliest times.
P. 238. From the life of Sambandar as given in the Periyapurāņam we learn that the Pandya contemporary had adopted the faith of the Jains while his wife, a Chola princess and his chief minister were devoted Saiva and through their influence, Sambandar converted this Pandya to Saivism. At the instigation of Sambandar, the whole body of Jains in Madura were impaled. A Jain king of Kanchi gave to Buddhists similar treatment. The Vaişņava apostle Rāmāniya treated the Jains similarly by instigating the Hoysala king, Vishnu Vardhana against them. These stories seem to have been concocted by the latter hagiologist to enhance the glories of their religion. But there is no evidence of a general act of persecution, as these religions flourished in undiminished influence even after the period of these persecutions.
P. 243. Sivagñana Siddhiyar, a Saiva work confirms the various systems in vogue including the Samaņa (Jain).
P. 248. According to Basava Purāna, Basava, a Brahman, attracted the attention of the chief minister of the Kulachurya usurper, Bijjala (a Jain)-1156 A.D. Basava became his minister and made use of the position for the advancement of his sect (Vira Saivism). His followers came into conflict with the Jains and Bijjala had to intared. Bijjala's influence could be got rid of only by assasination. Basava fled for safety and instigated two of his faithful followers to assassinate Bijjala.

Saivas. Rāmayya cut of his head, which came back to him on the 7th day after the mutilation. As the Jains did not keep their promise, Rāmayya carried out a wide and systematic persecution against them. The suffering Jains carried the news to Bijjala. Rāmayya offered to repeat the miracle, letting the Jains even to burn the head, promising to recover it as before. The Jains did not accept the challenge, therefore, Bijjala issued a Jayapatra to Rāmayya and granted a village.
P. 265. A fugitive stanza ascribed to Poygaiāļvār, a Vaishnava saint, states : 'we have learnt the religion of the Sakya, that of the Sramanas and examined the Agams composed by Siva etc. The same idea is repeated in one of his own verses, where he says: “The Sramaņas do not understand ; the Bauddhas are in delusion. and those that worship Siva are unknowing innocents. Those who do not worship Vishņu are of low intelligence ndeed.'
P. 266. The feature of the teaching of the Vaišnava saints was that the way of salvation was attainable even to the uninitiated according to the orthodox standards; this element and its teaching gave them the ultimate ascendency among the people even as against the rival creeds of Buddhism, Jainism and Saivism.
P. 284. Rārnānuja carried on controversies with the Jains also.
Pp. 287-291. The chief opponents the Saivas and the Vaishnavas had in view in all their controversies seem to be the Jains. This is but natural, as Jainism was just emerging full-grown owing to the active support and patronage of the Rashtrakūtas, several of them being of that persuasion. Active controversies against the Jains began in the days of Sambandar and Appar under the great Pallava Mahendravarman and his contemporary Pandya Sundara. Owing to bitterness of these controversies persecution of the Jain became common feature of the lives of Saiva and Vaishnava saints compiled at a later period. The most prominent of these are a persecution set up at the instance of Sambandara by his Pandya contemporary Nedumäran, otherwise Küntpändya and Sandara, who was first a Jain. The story has it that the whole body of Jains were impaled. Dr. Vincent Smiru accepted this story as embodying a historical incident--an instance of persecution for religion. Painting of this incident on the walls of the great temple at Madura and in all the bigger Siva temples of the south are found.
It is impossible for history to believe that Rāmayya actually cut off his head and got it back after it was turned to ashes. These stories have always a family kileness, thereby stamping them as pious fabrications of latter day hagiologists.

JAINABIBLIOGRAPHY
1873
The Jain are said to have conducted a whole-sale persecution of the Bauddhas under a king Himasitala at the instance of Akalanka. Similar story of Rāmānuja having persecuted the Jainas by getting them ground in oil-mills by Vishnuvardhana, the Hoysala- but it is known that the chief queen of Vishnuvardhana died a Jain (Ancient India, IX). His commander-in-chief also died a Jain under him, and his son succeeded in the same persuasion. The tutor for his (king's) son was a most respected Jain Achārya ; therefore, these stories can hardly be regarded as historical. But religious riots and excesses by parties of people always existed.
The Rāshtrakūtas were great patrons of the Jains, and in their days Jainism did its best work in literature in the Southern Mahratta country and Mys re; even now those regions are the great Jain centres and Jainism flourished there in the age of the great Cholas. Jainism continued to flourish under the Chālukyas and the Hoysalas and even in the age of Vijayanagar.
The Saiva Adiyārs and Vaishṇava Āļvārs had to carry on active propaganda against Buddhism and Jainism, to overcome these religions which had a large popular clientele. Both Kumārila Bhatta and Sankarāchāıya set themselves to the task of controverting the Jains and Buddhists and also some others.
Pp. 298-99. Vijayanagar stood out for all that was worth preserving in Hindu religion and culture, irrespective of the multifarious minor differences that went to constitute the Hinduism of those days as they do that of these days and providing, for further development of these. It was a comprehensive movement to take into its fuld all forms of the Hindu faith, including in it to a great extent even the prevalent form of Jainism of the locality.
P. 312. The Jains were a flourishing community in the Tulunād, the country between the western Ghāts and the sea. Irugappa, a trusted general of Harihara II, was a Jain, at whose instance the lesciographical work Nanārtha-ratnamala was composed; he erected a Jajn temple in Vijayanagar, popularly known as Ganigiiz temple (the oil-woman's temple).
Pp. 314-315. During the Vijayanagar rule Buddhism and Jainism flourished side by side with Brāhmanism; there were controversies but these were under the control of the civil authorities for the time being. According to Rāmānuja inscription, the Vaishnava holy place Tirunārāyanapuram was known among the Jainas as Vardhamānapuram. The Vaishnavas ill-treated the Jains, who carried a complaint to Bukka, who conducted an enquiry and committed the charge of seeing that the Jains were not molested by the Vaishnavas, to one of the Vahạisava Acharyas.

The greatest achievement of Jaina thought is its ideal of Ahimsa-non-violence. The word Jaina is derived from Jina-the victor. It is difficult to fix a particular date for the origin of Jainism. Rṣabha, the first Tirthankara. The Hindus regard. him as the eighth incarnation of Visnu. The nude statues of the Indus valley may be the prototypes of the Digambara Tirthankara statues. The names of the twentyfour Tirthankaras given.
Its relation to Brähmanism-Their only real gods are their Tirthankaras and Siddhas (those who have attained maksa). The Jainas flatly deny an eternal God, but they believe in the eternity of existence, universality of life, immutability of the law of karma or action, and right knowledge and right belief and right conduct as the means of self-liberation. Though karma decides ah, we ourselves can undo our past karma in our present life by austerities.

the public, these erroneous views are prevalent among the educated Indians even now. The beginning of Jainism, according to the Jaina tradition to the age of Lord Rishabha, the first of the Jinas, has a very interesting account. In south India, the Rishabha cult must have been prevalent long before the origin of Puranic Hinduism which supplanted Jainism in the South. The Saivite cult of the later Puranic age is a corrupt modification of the Rishabha cult of the earlier age.

The Russian experiment of communism, a form of economic levelling down the institutions of property is opposed to the existing system of capitalistic economics. As a compromise between these two economic institutions we must have a process of social reconstruction leading to voluntary limitation of personal property and setting apart the surplus for the betterment of general society as a whole. The social and economic reconstruction of the world. must therefore adopt itself to important principal of Jaina ethics.

In the book 'Buddha and Buddhism' by Arthur Lillie, world's epoch makers series, there is a chapter on the Apostles of Bloodless Altar', in which he collects a number of interesting facts to show how the doctrine of Ahimsa was spread beyond India towards western Asia.
Zoroaster-There were two Zoroaster, one lived in 6000 B.C. and the other in 500 B.C. While the former was in favour of animal sacrifice and the latter proclaimed bloodless sacrifice,
Pythagorians and their religious practices—They abstained from taking meat and fish and were vegetarians,
Essenism, the mystical school of Israel-Some derive their name from a Greek term which means holiness, have shown themselves pre-eminent by devotion to the service of God, not in the sacrifice of living animals, Lillie adds that they are pronounced of the same faith as the Gymnosophists of India, who abstain from the bloody sacrifice, that is, the Buddhists. Lillie is of opinion that Christianity was very much influenced by the doctrine of Ahimsā which was propounded in India and thereby failed to differentiate between Buddhism and the Philosophy of the Gymnosophists. Gymnosophists mean : 'naked philosophers'. It is used by the Greeks to denote Nirgranthas, the Jaina ascetics of India.
The Pythagorians, the latter Zoroasters, and the Essenes, the apostles of bloodless, altar had their inspiration from the order of the Gymnosophists which had been in existence from the 8th century B. C. Hence, Lillie's thesis that Christianity was influenced by the Indian ideal of Ahimsa propounded by the Gymnosophists remain true.

Lines ascribed to Umāsvāti cannot also be traced to any of his existing works—The lines appear to have been written by Umāsyati in connection with a difficulty felt at his time regarding the tithi for religious and secular observances in cases of doubt, after the introduction of the Jain Agama Calendar on the model of the Vedic Calendar based on Vedānga Jyotisha...Umāsvāti found the solution in the time-honoured line ‘Kşaye Pūrva etc.' to which he added the line 'Sri Virāsvami Nirvānam Karyam Lokānusaratah' with a view to place the day of Nirvāna and the day of the New Year on two consecutive days.
The Jain Agma calendar appears to have been introduced a few centuries before the Saka Era, possibly at the time of Bhadrabāhu-At the rate of one day per 72 years, the seasons had receded by a fortnight in the days of the Jaina Āgamas.
P. 106. Kālakācārya referred to the Vedic Calendar and its prototype the Jain Agama Calendar (Siddhānta Tippana) were followed by people till the 10th century A. D. when Sripati and other astronomers brought greater accuracy in the calculations of the durations of tithis. A new calendar was prepared which threw into the background the Vedic Calendar and the Jain Siddhānta Tippana....

The world is self-created. The universe is eternal, without a beginning and without an end. The Kaleidoscopic phenomena of the universe are all due to change in form and shape; and to the interplay and reactions between the living and non-living substances, comprising the universe. The two substances, the living and the non-living, are eternal, uncreated, self-existing. They have ever been, shall ever remain. They are continually, every moment of time, changing in form and appearance but in substance they are unchangeable The doctrine of Karma is a special and distinguishing feature of Jain Philosophy. Jainism is a panacea against all ills.

And most probably, the exact spot in that Vatnagar where this Jain centre of learning was accommodated was the ancient god-built temple of Chandraprabha Swami in the famous Jain cave temples of Chambhar Lena in the vicinity of that town,

Pp. 421-22. Paresnāth Hill in the district of Hazaribagh is the highest mountain in Chota Nagpur and its fauna is, therefore, of special significance in any discussions of the Satpura Hypothesis. The mountain rises to a hight of 4,800 feet above sea level and is about 180 miles from the foot-hills of Nepal. Its franks and crest are covered with dense jungle and though the humidity is not as high as in the eastern Himalayas, the atmosphere is damper in higher parts than the surrounding country. The mountain top presents a mixture, in fairly balanced proportions, of the plants of a damp hot, a dry hot, and of a temperate climate.

JAINA BIBLIOGRAPHY
A large proportion of the fauna of Paresnäth is identical with that of the Ganges valley and a smaller proportion apparently endemic on the hill, a Himalayan element can also be detected which is totally absent from the surrounding plains ANNANDALE N. Notes on the fauna of Paresnath Hill, Western Bengal, Rec, Ind. Mus. 7, 33-49, 1942).
The Himalayan element in the fauna represented by such forms as Phlebotomus major and Sepsis cynipsea among the Diptera, Haphsa nicomache among the Rhynchota, Thysia Wallichic among the beetles, and Lygosoma sikkimense among the lizards.
Although winged insects might be flown with comparative ease across the Ganges valley from the Nepal foot-hills to Paresnāth, it is quite impossible that a lizard could be carried in this way. It is impossible more over that the eggs of L. Sikkimense could be transported in a living condition by birds, for they perish within a short period of being removed from the damp moss in which they are laid. We must therefore seek for a geographical explanation of the occurance of the lizard on an isolated hill top two hundred miles from its present abode (AMANDALE-ibid).
There is no reason whatsoever to think that the individuals living on Paresnath were ever isolated by a ring of ice or driven to the summit by glaciers sufficiently extensive to submerge the base of the hill; but it must be remembered that the secular movements of glaciers are accompanied by profound modifications not only in temperature but also in humidity, and humidity is perhaps an even more important factor in the distribution of reptiles and insects than actual temperature. We must suppose that Lygosoma sikkimese once lived in the plains as well as or instead of in the hills, but that a fall in the atmospheric humidity of the former, perhaps due in part to movements of glaciers in the Himalayas, drove it up into the E. Himalayas on the one hand and the summit of Paresnath on the other, or confined it to comparatively high altitudes.

A. N. UPADHYE-The Fundamentals of Living Faiths: Jainism (Silver Jubilee Commemoration volume, the Indian Philosophical Congress, Pp. 132-38, Calcutta,
1895
This paper gives a succint exposition of the fundamentals of Jainism; its historical antecedents, metaphysical basis, logical approach and ethical ideology.
P. 132. Jainism, a sramanic culture, which thrived in Eastern India even prior to the advent of Aryans in Indian Midland. Jainism accepts both change and permanence as facts of experience.
P. 133. In Jainism the basic substances are eternal and their interaction explains all changes. The idea of absolute creation and destruction by God is not acceptable to Jainism. The God in Jainism is a liberated soul, a spiritually perfect ideal. He is an example to inspire and to guide. Every soul can aspire to achieve Godhood by annihilating Karmic forces.
P. 134. In Jainism the divinity can be adored at the various stages of spiritual evolution. Siddha-the liberated soul; Tirthankara (Arhet) the omniscient teacher; Acarya-preceptor; Upadhyaya-preacher; and sadhu-the monk these mark the various stages of the soul's spiritual progress. Jainism is a religion of self-help, and enables one to cultivate individual strength and courage on the path of spiritual progress. The Karma, according to Jainism, is a subtle matter, or energy, which is associated with Atman (soul) from beginningless time; and the spiritual emancipation becomes complete when the Atman develops its inherent glories by removing the Karmic shackles which were all along eclipsing the nature of Atman. The Karmic influx into the soul is due to one's activities, mental, vocal and physical.
Pp. 135-36. Jain logic insists on qualifying every statement with 'Spať, i.e., 'may be', to stress its conditional or relative character. Besides these two judgements, namely, 'somehow S is P' and 'somehow S is not P'. Jain logic admits a third kind of judgment, namely, 'somehow S is indescribable'. These three are the basic predications; and when they are combined successively and simultaneously, the maximum number of combinations is seven and not more. These are: (1) Somehow S is P; (2) Somehow S is not P ; (3) Somehow S is indescribable; (4) Somehow S is P and is also not P; (5) Somehow S is P and is also indescribable; (6) Somehow, S is not P and is also indescribable; and lastly (7) Somehow S is P, also is not P, and is also indescribable.

P. 136. Jain ethics aims at the realization of Nirvāṇa or Mokşa, which means that the soul is to be completely liberated from the shackles of Karma, which is to be achieved by observing a code of morality. Jainism lays down five basic vows : (i) ahimsa (abstention from violence); (ii) satya (abstention from false speech); (iii) asteya (abstention from theft); (iv) brahmacarya (abstention from sex pleasure); (v) aparigraha (abstention from greed for worldly possessions).
All the souls are equal ; therefore, the sanctity and dignity of life in its various forms must be maintained.

The religious back-ground of the Vedic, Brahmanic and Upanishadic texts is outlined especially with a view to trace the doctrine of transmigration, which was conspicuous by its absence in earlier works but became sufficiently important in the Upanishads. There is evidence in the Vedic literature itself that the Aryans had to struggle against an antagonistic culture in Central India as well as in Eastern India. It is to these parts of India that Jainism, Buddhism and some other faiths belong. It is in this back-ground that the Jaina and Buddhistic conceptions of Nirvana are studied in details.

AUDILAKSHMI --Tamil Nayanars in Telugu Literature. Sess. 1955. Annamalainagar, 1958).
P. 356. The Nayanars of the Tamil country played an important role in the evolution of Saivism in South India. The Tamil word Nayanar means a devotee. They are sixty-three in number. Curiously enough the number 63 corresponds to the Tri-shaşțiśalākā purushas of Jain tradition. The Nayanars lived between the 5th and the 10th centuries of the Christian era. At the outset, in South India, Saivism had to contend with the two formidable rivals, Jainism and Buddhism. The Pallava king Mahendravarman I, who was at first a Jaina became an ardent Saivite under the influence of Appar (Tirunavukkarasu or Vagisar Nayanar); Mahendravarman caricatured Buddhists and Jains in his Sanskrit burlesque MattavilasaPrahasana.

The latest translation of the Kural in English is by Prof. A. CHAKRAVARTI of Madras. He is a Jain scholar and his commentary has been written from the Jain point of view. According to him the doctrine of Ahimsā which is fundamental in the Jain religion is the bed-rock on which the structure of the Kural is raised. Kural has been translated into several Indian languages: Sanskrit, Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Tamil; several translations in English.

L. A. PHALTANE-An Ancient Phase of Jainism. (Jain Ant., Vol. XXII, No. II), Arrah, 1964, Pp. 17 to 20.
Marga, according to Sri Kundakundachärva, means a way for final beatitude and its result is complete happiness. Jainism was known at one time by the name Marga, Maga, Manga, Maunga and Monk-are the words derived from the original word 'magga'. In Persia the Magas' formed an important section of the people. We learn from the Bhavis ya Purana that the Magas and Bhojakas are the same. They had among them the customs of showing the head clean, of not dining at night and of carrying a brush in their hands. These customs are common among the saints of the Jainas of India. From the similarities found in the language of the Brahmi people in Baluchistan and the Kannada people of Karnataka the linguists have come to the conclusion that the Kannada people of Karnataka must have been in ancient past, the inhabitants of the territory round about Baluchistan. This means that the whole of the Central Asia, Persia and Baluchistan and the territory round about were under the influence of marga or Jaina religion in ancient days.

The earliest reformist movement in India was started by Jains. Jain means a person who has conquered his senses and controlled his mind. Jainism has made a revolution in our culture and in our religion. The whole of the Jain community have given up meat-eating and have adopted vegetarianism. The first attempt of Jainism is to make man a better man. The effort of Jainism is to make a man shed his animal instincts and become divine. The practice of non-violence by every human being is necessary for the very survival of humanity. The destruction of armaments and the banning of nuclear weapons are temporary expedients to avoid war, but the only sure method of preventing wars is to convert man into an absolutely peaceful being. Jainism believes in the existence of individual souls and in the law of Karma. According to Jainism, a man is the architect of his own life. Jainism extended upto Cape Komorin. Tamil literature has borrowed greatly from the Jaina religion and philosophy.

The Mahāvansa clearly indicates that the Jaia religion and its civilisation was existing in Ceylon before the advent of Buddhism in the country. There are still archaeological remains at Anurādāpur, the ancient capital of Lanka, which prove entirely the existence of Jain religion and its civilisation that was once in the country of Lanka, the ancient Ceylon.

Annie BESANT-Jainism : A convention Lecture. Madras, Pp. 44-67.
She says that man by injuring no living creature reaches the Nirvāna which is peace. Jainism was looked on as derived from Buddhism, but that is now admitted to be a blunder. Jainism is far older than Buddhism. Jina-the perfect man, The Tamil grammar, said to be the most scientific grammar that exists, is a Jaina production. From the 1st to the 12th centuries the Canarese literature is mostly written by the Jainas. Jaina rules laid down daily life for the layman. In Northern India the Jaina and the Hindu vaishyas intermarry.
