as such and if those of the ajīva substances are described as belonging to them alone then the exposition becomes true. This illustrates the true exposition of a substance. 16 In the same manner, to illustrate the anuyoga and ananuyoga of kşetra (place) and kāla (time) the instances of an ugly woman and study by a monk are given respectively. To illustrate the anuyoga and ananuyoga of bhāva (attribute, quality) seven instances are given the explanation of which is found in the Brhatkalpabhäsya gåthås 171-172 and also in the Hemacandrīya vyakhyā of the Viseşāvaśyakabhāşya, gātha 1418.
Discussion of Anuyoga (Exposition) as found in the Angas
At the end of the account of the Angas like Ācārānga, etc., given in the Samavāyānga and the Nandi it is said that they have numerous anuyogadvāras (i.e. entrances to or methods of exposition). This suggests that even in olden times the practice of writing expository commentaries on the fundamental sūtras was in vogue. Moreover, out of the five parts (vibhāga) (according to another view four parts
-Sthānānga, 262) of the DȚstivāda the fourth one contains anuyoga, which is of two types—mülaprathamānuyoga and gandikānuyoga.17 According to the Digambara tradition the third part bears the title Padhamaniyoga and the subject-matter of this part, as given in the Digambara works, is almost the same as that of the anuyoga described in the Samavāyānga and Nandi.18 In the synonyms or species (paryāya) of the Drastivāda mentioned in the Sthānānga (742) there occurs one called anuyogagata.
In the Sthānanga (727) ten types of dravyānuyoga are described. In this description we find an attempt to explain the substance in various ways. The present Anuyogadvārasūtra does not refer to this dravyānuyoga. The reason seems to be that the dravyānuyoga referred to in the Angas has connection with that dravyānuyoga which is one of the four well known anuyogas, viz., caraṇakaraṇānuyoga and others, while the present Anuyogadvārasūtra contains full discussion on a particular method of exposition. The method of exposition called ekarthikānuyoga (the method which gives simply the synonyms for the words of the text) which has been mentioned in the Sthananga (727) is followed in the Anuyogadvārasūtra where it simply gives the synonyms for the words of the original text. From this it becomes clear that the mere pointing out of the synonyms has also been recognised as one of the ingredients or constituents of an
