THE CANONICAL LITERATURE OF THE JAINAS
In the edition published by Rai Dhanapatisinh Bahadur in A.D. 1886 we have the following 10 Païnnagas :
(1) Catuhsarana, (2) Tandulavaicārika, (3) Devendrastava, (4) Ganividyā, (5) Saṁstāraka, (6) Aturapratyākhyāna, (7) Bhaktaparijñā, (8) Candrāvedhyaka, (9) Mahāpratyākhyāna and (10) Maranavibhakti (also known as Maranasamādhi).
In the Āgamodaya Samiti Series the following 10 Painnagas have been published in A.D. 1927 in the order noted below :
(1) Catuḥsarana, (2) Āturapratyākhyāna, (3) Mahāpratyākhyāna, (4) Bhaktaparijñā, (5) Tandulavaicārika, (6) Saṁstāraka, (7) Gacchācāra, (8) Ganividyā, (9) Devendrastava and (10) Maraṇasamadhi.
In Prof. Schubring's Die Lehre der Jainas nach der alten Quellen dargestellt the very 10 Païnnagas noted in DCGCM etc. along with two more viz. Tīrthodgālika (Pr. Titthogāliya) and Ārādhanāpatākā (Pr. Ārāhaņāpadāyā) are dealt with.
In DCGCM (Vol. XVII, pt. I, pp. 317-388), I have described the following works as supernumerary Païņnagas :
(1) Angacūliyā, (2) Angavijjā, (3) Ajīvakappa, (4) Aurapaccakkhāņa, (5) Ārāhaņāpaļāyā, (6) Kavayaddāra, (7) Gacchāyāra, (8) Jambūsāmiajjhayaņa, (9) Joisakarandaga, (10) Titthogāli, (11) Divasāgarapannattisangahani, (12) Pajjantārāhana, (13) Piņdavisuddhi, (14) Maraṇavihi, (15) Jonipāhuda, (16) Vangacūliyā, (17) Sārāvali and (18) Siddhapāhuda.
In this connection it may be mentioned that as suggested by Prof. Schubring Kavayaddāra is a part and parcel of Ārāhaņāpadāyā (dāra 30, from v. 25)4. Thus there remain 17 works for which the designation
1. These are same as noted by Bhāvaprabha Süri. 2. Thus here instead of Candāvejjhaya we have Gacchácara; the rest are common. 3. This work is also known as Jonivihāna referred to in the following verse of
Visesăvassayabhāsa as can be seen from its com. (p. 750) by Maladhārin Hemacandra Sūri :
sfa cherede utforfatuta Panthreat I STHŞ JEET JEH ! TRACT 118094)." See the German Review of DCGCM (Vol. XVII, pts. I and II) published in Orientalistische Literaturzeitung (1937, Nr. 3, p. 185). Here it is said that Divasāgarapannattisangahaņi is a part of Jivābhigama.
