This is the printed text of Nandisutra with Malayagiriyā Tikā, edited by Agamoddharaka Śrī Sāgarānandasūri. This edition has been published by Agamodaya Samiti, Surat, in 1973 V. S.
Special Features of the Mss. of the Nandisūtra
o, o and to mss. are not corrected by any scholar after they have been written. But o, o, so and Jo-these four mss. are corrected. Out of these four theo ms. has been corrected by Ac. Śrī Jinabhadrasuri of Kharataragaccha. He has written notes on the interpolated readings, etc. We have given these notes in our edition (Refer to p. 5 n. 1; p. 6 n. 11; p. 7 n. 10; p. 8 n. 9; p. 9 n. 3 etc. etc.).
Though the o ms. is mosty similar to io ms., it seems to belong to a different group. Therein the gathās of Sthaviravali-considered to be interpolated-are not found. Refer to p. 6 n. 11 and p. 7 n. 10. Again, the three interpolated gathãs of the seventh Pariṣatsūtra are not there in the o ms. See p. 9 n. 3. Moreover, that very reading (of the sutra describing the dravya, kṣetra etc. of the Manaḥparyavajñāna) which is accepted by the author of the Curni and Ac. Haribhadrasūri occurs in this ms. See p. 16 n. 3. All such distinguishing features of this ms. are pointed out in footnotes. We crave the indulgence of the scholars, who are interested in the study of variants, for one thing. In this edition at different places (p. 7 n. 10; p. 8 n. 9; p. 8 n. 11; p. 20 n. 11 etc.) we have mentioned go sign, but we have forgotten as to which ms. is meant by it and as to which ms. library it belongs to. But this much is certain that it is similar to Jo ms. in some points. That is, just as govimdāņam pi namo° and tatto ya bhūyadinneo-these two gāthās do not occur in 0 ms. even so they do not occur in the yo ms. Refer to p. 7 n. 10. Even though in our edition at that concerned place the mention is not made of the Jo ms. along with Jo ms., after having examined the Jo ms. we have made it certain that the abovementioned two gathās are not there in it. And this correction is noted
