'दिदृक्षाद्यात्मभूतं त-न्मुख्यमस्या निवर्तते। प्रधानादिनतेर्हेतु-स्तदभावान्न तन्नतिः ॥२००।। अन्यथा स्यादियं नित्य-मेषा च भव उच्यते । एवं च भवनित्यत्वे कथं मुक्तस्य सम्भवः ॥२०१।।'51
[12] I guess that the term FGEHT in the Jaina literature is for the first time noticeable in the works of Haribhadra sūri. Out of his works :
(i)
The term FGEST is employed in the above-recorded verse, bearing the number 200 of the TTEC tau.
(ii) The employment of the term fe has been attributed to ancient writers
[Patañjali and so forth according to the commentary] by incorporating the clause 'FeHiftępuifayda ffad 29' in the verse bearing the number
489 of the trang 152 (iii) The term FEST is again encountered in the phrase 'ta ta feferal in
the 16th verse of the 2nd faft, of the fagfafafgroht. The traditionally famous reading 'Taa asfal, which has been accepted by Abhyankar is incorrect and inconsistent. Here, if we accept the reading factal, then alone it sounds appropriate in case of all other situations53.
(iv) The term fEAT is employed in the eighth verse of the 15th 1621. of
the olsyrchycut, which is as follows:'714AGI TERGEETIHA I
ricom: 154' Here the term FGEH does not offer the meaning, which has been attributed to it in other treatises. Here this term is used in the sense of 371104 consistently with its etymological interpretation gel10591 FGES. Here we can clearly see how intelligently and consistently a Jainācārya employs the term FEHT, which bears a technical meaning according to the Sankhya school of philosophy. Yet, the application the term, even when the context is changed, does not seem improper.
It is possible that Haribhadra sūri might have employed this term in his other works also. Now, we have to see whether he has employed the term दिदृक्षा in the sentence 'ण दिदिक्खा अकरणस्स'55 of the Pancasutra in the same sense in which he has used this term in the aforementioned three works barring the STCH.
[13] The term 94474E756 is employed in the fourth sūtra of the Pañcasūtra. This appears to be a favourite term of Haribhadra sūri, because it appears
