BEGINNINGS OF JAINA PHILOSOPHY IN THE ACĀRĀNGA
explain the bondage of the soul, the non-soul, i.e. material substance (acitta) was necessary. In this case the Jainas are following the Sankhya philosophy, and not the Advaita of the Upanisads.
Out of the seven tattvas (Tattvärtha 1.4) or nine padarthas (Sthānāngas 867) only samvara is not mentioned in the Acaranga; the remaining however are mentioned individually at different places. This shows that the list of seven or nine categories was not yet fixed.
Acār. = 1977.
