This seventeenth Prabhruta Prabhruta in the Muhurta Chintamani, the chapter on travel, is not actually taught by the Bhagavan, but seems to have been added by someone else. This style of language is not found in the Bhagavan's teachings. For example, in some places, the third case plural is used, such as "Kattiyahim, Rohinihim, Addahim," while in other places, the third case singular is used, such as "Punavvasuna, Pussehena, Addaae." Also, in the context of food, the third case is used in some places, while the second case is used in others. For example, "Dahina Bhocca, Baniyena Bhocca, Khirena Bhocca" uses the third case, while "Vasabha Mansa Bhocca, Miga Mansa Bhocca, Deeva Mansa Bhocca" uses the second case. This inconsistent use of language suggests that this section was not taught by the Bhagavan.
Furthermore, in some places, the consumption of land, water, and air animals is mentioned as a cause for success. This is completely inappropriate, as the Bhagavan, who teaches the protection of the six bodies and the six-bodied beings, would never advocate for the consumption of meat. Such teachings are not found anywhere in the scriptures. Therefore, it is certain that this section is not part of the Bhagavan's teachings.
However, there is another logical reason. In the scriptures, the counting of the Nakshatras always starts from the Abhijit Nakshatra, as it is the first Nakshatra of the Yuga. In this scripture, the first Prabhruta Prabhruta of the tenth Prabhruta begins with the following sutra:
"How do you know that the objects are arranged in this way? What is the basis for this arrangement? They said, "There are five different interpretations here. They said, "All the Nakshatras, starting from Krittika and ending with Bharani, are one." || 1 ||
This is the first interpretation of the other Tirthankaras. They believe that the Nakshatras, starting from Krittika and ending with Bharani, are one. There are five such interpretations of the other Tirthankaras. The second interpretation is: "All the Nakshatras, starting from Magha and ending with Ashlesha, are one." || 2 ||
The third interpretation is: "All the Nakshatras, starting from Dhanishta and ending with Shravana, are one." || 3 ||
The fourth interpretation is: "All the Nakshatras, starting from Ashvini and ending with Revati, are one." || 4 ||
The fifth interpretation is: "All the Nakshatras, starting from Bharani and ending with Ashvini, are one." || 5 ||
After refuting all these five interpretations, the Bhagavan presents his own view:
