________________ 卐 卐 फफफफफफफ தமிழகத*******தததததததததத*************தி संग्रहणी गाथा में इन छहों को 'इभ्यजातीय' कहा है। ईभ का अर्थ हाथी होता है । वृत्तिकार के अनुसार जिसके पास धन-राशि इतनी ऊँची हो कि जिसके समक्ष सूँड़ को ऊँची किया हुआ हाथी भी न दिख सके, उसे इभ्य कहा जाता था । इभ्य की इस परिभाषा से इतना तो स्पष्ट ज्ञात होता है कि ब्राह्मण, क्षत्रिय और शूद्रजातीय माता वैश्य पिता से उत्पन्न सन्तान से इन इभ्य जातियों के नाम पड़े हैं। क्योंकि व्यापार करने वाले वैश्य सदा से ही धन-सम्पन्न रहे हैं । पितृपक्ष को 'कुल' कहा जाता है। छह कुल आर्यों का विवरण इस प्रकार है- ( १ ) उग्र- भगवान ऋषभदेव ने आरक्षक या कोट्टपाल के रूप में जिनकी नियुक्ति की थी, वे उग्र नाम से प्रसिद्ध हुए। उनकी 5 सन्तान भी उग्रवंशीय कहलाने लगी । (२) भोज - गुरुस्थानीय क्षत्रियों के वंशज । ( ३ ) राजन्य - मित्रस्थानीय 卐 फ्र क्षत्रियों के वंशज । ( ४ ) इक्ष्वाकु - भगवान ऋषभदेव के वंशज । (५) ज्ञात - भगवान महावीर के वंशज | 5 (६) कौरव - कुरुवंश में उत्पन्न शान्तिनाथ तीर्थंकर के वंशज । इन छहों कुलार्यों का सम्बन्ध क्षत्रियों से रहा है। इनका विस्तृत वर्णन देखें- 'ठाणं' पृष्ठ, ६९४) फ्र Paternal lineage is called Kula. Details about six Aryas by Kula areUgra-People appointed as guards or guardians of forts became as Ugra. Their descendents were called Ugra vamshiya. Elaboration-Maternal lineage is called jati. People having faultless and pious maternal lineage are called jatyarya (noble by jati). According to Amarkosh an offspring of a Vaishya (the third caste in the traditional Hindu caste-hierarchy) mother and Brahmin (the first caste in the 5 traditional Hindu caste- hierarchy) father is called Ambasht, that of a h Brahmin mother and Vaishya father is called Vaideha. The term chunchun does not find a mention in any lexicon. If it is transcribed as kunkun then it could mean inhabitants of Konkan country. Interestingly in that area maternal lineage is prominent even today. Kaland and Harit castes also follow maternal lineage. It is believed that with maternal dominance the offsprings have qualities like humility and shyness and with paternal dominance qualities like bravery and wisdom are prominent. स्थानांगसूत्र (२) 255959595959595959595959595959595999999999959595959595 2 फ्र In the collative verse these six people are called ibhyajatiya. Ibh means elephant. According to the commentator (Vritti) a person who has फ्र such a high heap of wealth that an elephant with raised trunk can hide behind it was called Ibhya. This definition of Ibhya clearly indicates that offsprings of Brahmin, Kshatriya and Shudra mothers sired by Vaishya father established Ibhya clans. This is because Vaishyas have always been affluent. 卐 (238) Jain Education International 卐 Sthaananga Sutra (2) For Private & Personal Use Only 卐 (1) famous ( 2 ) Bhoj— Descendents of Kshatriyas who were respected as gurus 5 卐 卐 卐 2 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 52 www.jainelibrary.org
