________________ JINESVARSURI'S GAHARAYANAKOSA 549 v. 418 v. 428 v. 443 V. 477 v. 703 707 v. 786 v. 236 2 v. 238 S This occurs in Surasundaricariya (II-V. 172) with minor variant readings : अइवल्हं पि वीसरइ माणूसं देस-काल-अंतरियं / वल्लीसमं हि पिम्मं जं आसन्नं तर्हि चडइ // This gatha belongs to Ratnavali, the well-known play of Harsa. It occurs at II. v. 1 This gatha is cited in Kavyaprakasa (IV. v. 66, p. 141, Jhalakikar's edition). This gatha is cited in Kavyaprakasa (III. v. 16, p. 75, Jhalakikar's edition). This gatha is cited in Dhvanyaloka (III. P, 352, Banaras Ed. with Balapriya commentary). This gatha is cited in Dhvanyaloka (I. p. 76). This gatha is cited by Kuntaka in his Vakroktijivita (I. v. 20) These two gathas are found also in Chappannaya-gahas as gatha No. 74 (with variant readings) and gatha No. 48 respectively. This comparative study helps us to correct some of the doubtful readings indicated with a question-mark by the editors. This gatha which is drawn from Gaudavaho (v. 3) needs to be corrected. Even the correction noted in the list of corrections does not help. The gatha should read : तं पणमह तिगिच्छि-च्छलेण णिवसइ णिवेस-कमलम्मि / जस्स परमाणु-णिवहो व्व भुवण-णिम्माण-पडिवण्णो // [तं प्रणमत पद्मरजच्छलेन निवसति निवेश-कमले / यस्य परमाणु-निवह इव भुवन-निर्माण-प्रतिपन्नः / / ] Vakpatiraja commences his work with this gatha paying homage to the Self-born god (Brahma). The third quarter of this opening verse of Gaudavaho should be corrected to : हरि-जढर-णिग्गमुक्खित्त-(णाल-सुत्तं पिव सयंभुं) [हरि-जठर-निर्गमोत्क्षिप्त-(नालसूत्रमिव स्वयंभुवम्)] This gatha belongs to Gaudavaho (v. 18). Our text differs from the printed text of Gaudavaho as far as ya-sruti is concerned. P. 2 v. 5 P. 2. v. 6 P 2 v. 9 www.jainelibrary.org For Private & Personal Use Only Jain Education International
