THE CANONICAL LITERATURE OF THE JAINAS
It appears that Aryasamita Sthavira could stop the flow of a river by yogacurṇa on account of his knowledge of Siddhapāhuḍa. That Pādalipta Sūri and Nagarjuna Suri could fly by applying some thing on the sole of a foot, is probably due to their knowledge of this work. It may be added that probably it was the knowledge of this Pahuḍa that helped the two pupils of Susthitācārya in remaining invisible by means of some añjana applied to eyes and in sharing the food of King Candragupta.
In this connection it may not be amiss to state that we have another work available at present and named as Siddhapāhuḍa. It is extracted from Aggāniya ( vide p. 93 ), but it should not be on that account confounded with the one in question.
The names of 24 anuyogadvāras of Kammapayaḍi are given in Laghu Cunni (p. 2a) on Bandhasayaga in the following verses :
" कइ १ वेदणा २ य फासे ३ कम्मं ४ पगडी य ५ बंधण ६ निबंधे ७ । पक्कम ८ उवकम्मु ९ दए १० मोक्खे ११ पुण संकमे १२ लेस्सा १३ ॥ १ ॥ लेसाकम्मे १४ लेसापरिणामे १५ तह य सायमस्साते १६ । दीहस्से १७ भक्धारणी य १८ तह पोग्गला १९ अत्ता १९ ( ? ) ||२|| हित्तमणिहत्तं य २० णिक्काइयमणिक्काइयं २१ कम्मठिति २२ । पच्छिमखन्धे २३ अप्पाबहुगं य २४ सव्वत्थओ ||३||
The sanskrit names are
(१) कृति, (२) वेदना, (३) स्पर्श, (४) कर्मन्, (५) प्रकृति, (६) बंधन, (७) निबंध, (८) प्रक्रम, (९) उपक्रम, (१०) उदय, (११) मोक्ष, (१२) संक्रम, (१३) लेश्या, (१४) लेश्याकर्मन्, (१५) लेश्यापरिणाम, (१६) सातासात, (१७) दीर्घ ह्रस्व, (१८) भवधारणी, (१९) पुद्गल, (२०) निधतानिधत, (२१) निकाचितानिकाचित, (२२) कर्मस्थिति, (२३) पश्चिमस्कंध and (२४) अल्पबहुत्व.

Anuoga—Etymology of this word is already given on p. 10. Furthermore its main divisions1 and their contents are also noted on pp. 10-11. So there remains very little to be said here.
Extracts from the Anuoga-Some of the biographical sketches of the great men may have been extracted from Paḍhamāṇuoga.2
1
In the com. (p. 93) on Siddhāntāgamastava Anuoga is styled as Pūrvānuyoga, and it is there described as having two sections viz. Prathamānuyoga and Kālānuyoga.

It may appear that Padhamāṇuoga was not only extant but even available to Jinadāsa Gani as can be inferred from the following words occurring in his Avassayacunni ( pt. I, p. 160 ) :
" एतं सव्वं गाहाहिं जहा पढमाणुयोगे तहेव इहंपि वन्निज्जति वित्थरतो । ”
