________________ HEMACANDRA : AN ASSESSMENT 229 writers like the Natyadarpana of Ramacandra and Gunacandra, two noted disciples of Hemacandra, Manikyacandra's Samketa commentary on Mammata's Kavyaprakasa, and Ambaprasada's Kalpalataviveka deserve to be studied very carefully as they are mines of gold preserving best portions of works from their famous predecessors and render invaluable help in restoring corrupt passages from the texts of the predecessors. Notes and References : 1. Kavyanusasana of Acarya Hemacandra, Sri Mahavira Jaina Vidyalaya, Bombay 1964 edn. 2.
