INTRODUCTION
scriptures Jinabhadra accepted seven Nayas, but at the same time accepted with great reverence the six-fold divisions of Nayas as made by Siddhasena.
(6) In Sanmati 1, 6. the first three Nikşepas are mentioned being of the nature of Dravyāstika and the fourth Nikṣepa as being of the nature of Paryāyāstika and in San mati 1. 5, 6 the Nayas Sangraha and Vyavabāra are included in Dravyāstika, and the four Nayas such as Rjusūtra, and others have been included in Paryāyästika. Jinabhadra accepts this classification of Sanmati and incorporates this classification in the 75th Gāthā of his Bhāşya.
(3) While trying to determine the relation between Siddhasena and Jinabhadra it is essential first to discuss the question :---with regard to what points these two authors were opposed to each other ? The opposition existed mainly with regard to the point of Kevalopayogavāda, Three points here are noteworthy :
(a) References in ancient literature as regards this
Vāda. (6) How was this doctrine enunciated ? How was
it further developed ? (c) Who was the originator of this discussion ?
(a) In Digambara literature there is not a single work dealing with this present Vāda. It seems, therefore, that in Digambara sect this Vāda was never discussed. In Swetambara literature we come across a good deal of discussion about this Väda?. In the Swetāmbara literature
