CLASSIFICATIONS OF THE AGAMAS
some respects. In order that this may be realized, I give below the names of works forming a group known as kaliya-suya as given in Nandi (s. 44):
(1) Uttarajjhayaṇa1, (2) Dasā2, (3) Kappa, (4) Vavahāra, (5) Nisiha, (6) Mahānisīha, (7) Isibhāsia3, (8) Jambuddivapannatti, (9) Divasaagarapanṇatti, (10) Candapanṇatti, (11) KhuḍḍiyāVimāṇapavibhatti, (12) Mahalliā-Vimāṇapavibhatti, (13) Angaculiyā, (14) Vaggaculiyā, (15) Vivāhaculiyā, (16) Aruṇovavāya, (17) Varuṇovavāya, (18) Garulovavāya, (19) Dharaṇovavāya, (20) Vesamaṇovavāya, (21) Velandharovavāya, (22) Devindovavāya, (23) Uṭṭhāṇasuya, (24) Samuṭṭhāṇasuya, (25) Nāgapariyāvaṇiā1, (26) Nirayāvaliyā3, (27) Kappiyā, (28) Kappavaḍimsiya?, (29) Pupphiya, (30) Pupphaculiyā9 and (31) Vaṇhīdasā1o.

On comparing these names with those given in Pakkhiyasutta (p. 66a and p. 66b), we find :
(1) The following 7 additional works are mentioned there :
(a) Surapannatti, (b) Vanhiya11, (c) Asīvisabhāvaṇā12, (d) Diṭṭhivisabhāvaṇā13, (e) Cāraṇabhāvaṇā14, (f) Mahāsumiṇabhāvaṇā15 and (g) Teyaganisagga16.
(2) There is no mention of Dharaṇovavāya.
(3) In all there are 37 works noted under the group known as kāliya-suya.
Though in the printed edition we have Vanhiä and Vanhidasā, it is doubtful, if there is really any work like Vanhiä; for, Yaśodeva Suri while commenting upon Pakkhiyasutta takes no notice of it.
