The word 'uttara' in the nomenclature of 'Uttarajjhayana' signifies three meanings : (1) Last, (2) Excellent and (3) Afterwards. Some believe that the words contained in Uttarajjhayana are the LAST ones uttered by Mahăvira before he attained liberation. Some explain the word 'uttara' as 'excellent' and say that the chapters contained in Uttarajjhayana are the EXCELLENT ones. Others suggest that the word 'uitara' occurring in Uttarajjhayaņa is used to convey the idea that this text was used to be read AFTER Āyāra before Dasaveyaliya was composed and AFTER Dasaveyāliya later on.? Uttarajjhayana will become extinct after the death of Pasa(4), i. e. after 20500 years of Mahāvira's emancipation.8 1. Pak. p. 44, Nan. 44.
