Lokottara Twelve Angas known as Gaņipitakas or, Sūtrāgama Arthāgama Tadubhayāgama:
or, Aptāgama Anantarāgama Paramparāgama. The Anuyoga gives the four divisions of Darśana also :
Darśana
Caksur Acaksur Avadhi Kevala
The following points should be noted in the above divisions :
(1) It leaves Mati and Sruta and replaces them by Indriyapratyakşa, Anumāna, Aupamya and Agama. It does not mention smộti and tarka admitted by the later Jajna logicians as varieties of Paroksa.
(2) The Agamic division of Mati-jñāna has been left altogether. Division of Knowledge : The Fourth and subsequent stages :
We have stated that the division of Anuyogadvāra did not get much favour as it went astray from the Āgamic tradition. So, Umāsvāti reverted to the position of Niryuktis and his division was established finally. In the further stages the theory was developed and discussed minute'y. No-body suggested any fundamental change except Siddhasena. By the Āgamic division we understand either that of the Bhagavati as fully expressed in the Prajñāpapā or that of the Stbānārga
