THE CANONICAL LITERATURE OF THE JAINAS
As regards the works coming under the group known as ukkāliyasuya, Nandī (s.44) mentions the following :
(1) Dasaveyāliya, (2) Kappiyakappiya, (3) Culla-Kappasuya, (4) MahāKappasuya, (5) Uvavāïya, (6) Rāyapaseņiya, (7) Jivābhigama, (8) Pannavaņā, (9) Mahāpaņņavaņā, (10) Pamāyappamāya, (11) Nandi, (12) Aņuogadāra', (13) Devin datthaä, (14) Tandulaveyāliya, (15) Candāvijjhyaya, (16) Sūrapaņņatti, (17) Porisimaņdala, (18) Mandalapavesa, (19) Vijjācaraṇaviņicchaya, (20) Ganjivijjā, (21) Jhāņavibhatti, (22) Maraṇavibhatti, (23) Āyavisohi, (24) Vīyarāgasuya, (25) Samlehaņāsuya, (26) Vihārakappa, (27) Caraṇavihi, (28) Āurapaccakkāņa and (29) Mahāpaccakkhāņa.
This list differs from the one given in Pakkhiyasutta (p. 61b) in the following respects :
(1) There is no mention of Surapannatti there.
(2) In all there are 28 works, all of which, of course, tally with those mentioned in Nandī.
From this it follows that according to Nandi, Sūrapannatti belongs to the class known as ukkāliya-suya, whereas according to Pakkhiyasutta it belongs to the class known as kāliya-suya.
I may note en passant that some mention 32 works as belonging
ukkāliya-suya. Of them 29 works are the same as noted in Nandi, and the additional ones are as under :
(1) Nirayavisohi, (2) Maraṇavisohi, and (3) Āyavibhatti.
Further there are several works which come under the class of kāliya-suya. They are not only anonymous but we have no idea about them except that they are Paiņnagas.
It may be here noted that none of the 12 Angas is included in any of the two groups viz. kāliya-suya and ukkāliya-suya. So there arise two
