Sataka (Sutra 27, page 130) has been referred to but the full text is not there. It is indicated there to refer to 'Rayapaseņa-ima' sutra.
The abridged text of Sūtra 16/71 refers to the chapter of 'Udrāyana (13,117, page 614) only not to find the full text there. In the same way 16/121, 18/56 and 18/77 indicate regarding the full text, but it is not found at the places referred to.
On the basis of these references, it is inferred that the texts, at the places referred to, were complete at the time of their abridgement. But after that, some Anuyogadhara Acharya abridged those full texts also. The words *Jawa', Jaha' etc, bave been used for abridgement.
In some instances, the use of Tāwa' is more or less unnecessary. It is either due to negligence on the part of the transcriber or has been written as usual without discernment. The transcribers have taken plenty of freedom in the use of 'Jāwa'. If someone transcribed Pawaphala Jawa Kajjantı. the other has written it as "Pāwaphala virvága Jāwa Kajjati'. Along with the short readings even such as 'winda' (7/196), 'Payoga' (8/17) 'Sahassa' (16/103) the word 'Jāwa' has been added. The abridgements of the text, therefore, seem to have been done from time to time by the scribes.
The Agama under review has two main Vaćnās, abridged and full. The length of the abridged version of the work is regarded to be a total of 15751 Anustupa Slokas. The extent of the full version of the work is regarded to be a total of one lakh and a quarter Anustupa Ślokas. Abbayadeva Süri bas written bis commentary on the basis of the abridged version of this Āgama. In editing the text, we have, as far as needed, completed the texts introduced by the words Jäwa' etc., resulting the total length of the work to a measure of 19319 Anuştupa Slokas and 16 letters more.
