utilised for comparison are not finally settled, we are not in a position to finalize. the date of T. This much we can say that it was compiled before Vyavahāra bhāṣya and we may for the time being agree with Shri Muni Kalyanvijayji that T. was completed in 5th. Century of Vikrama era,-vide his essay on Vira Nirvan Samvat p. 30.
ŚRUTA-SARITĀ
Annotation:
1. History of Dharmasutra: Vol. V. Part I pp. 688 ff.
2. Ibid p. 698.
3. See B. O. R. I. Cat. Vol. XVII part I, Vo. 395-397 and Jainaratnakosa I. p. 161. 4. Jainagranthavali p. 62 gives SK. Tirthodgāra.
5. तेतीसंनाहाओं दोनि सताउ सहस्समेगं च ।
तित्थोगालीए संखा एसाम णियाउ अंकेण ॥
|| गाथा १२३३ ॥
6. See Jainagranthavali p. 62 and 72 and also schubring: Doctrine of the Jains, p. 109.
7. मरुदेवीपमुहाओ वियसियकमलाणणा उ रयणीए
पेच्छिति सुहपसुता चोदसपवरे महासुमिणे ॥१००॥ also see gathas 1020 1022, 1024
8. अठ्ठण्हं जणणीओ तित्थगराणं तु होंति सिद्धाओ ।
अठ्ठय सणंकमारे माहिंदे अट्ठ बोधव्वा ||४६३॥
9. See gathas 70 ff.;
10. See Tiloya. 4. 421-504
11. Here we must note that Jambudvipaprajnapti (second Vaksaskira) mentioned 15 and not 7 Kulakaras. It adds the name of Rsabha to the 14 mentioned by Tiloyap. 12. These are from Sthänäñga-777 see also my Sthänänga-Samavāyānga P. 891. 13. एगंपि असहिओ मिच्छद्दिशे जमाकिव्वा गा० १२०३
14. At the same time the other 9 Tirthankaras are also born in different lands and so the description of Reshabha will apply to them also (96-). Similar is the case with Bharat Cakri. He also has his contemporary Cakri in different lands (308).
15. There is some difference about the calculation but the year 683 is common, vide Dhavala part I Intro. pp. 26 ff. and Jaya Dhavala part I Intro. pp. 48 ff.
