Notes A. In the commentaries Avacūrņi on Āvaśyaka Niryukti and Bșhadvštti on Uttarādhyayanasūtra the description of these twenty nine heretic scriptures is found, but in a diffferent manner?. Therein, the treaties on the first eight of Samavāyānga are each three-fold: sūtra, výtti and vārtika, making the total twenty-four, besides five i.e. gandharva(a kind of lore), drama, architecture (vāstu), medicine (āyurveda) and archery (dhanurveda). As noted above vrtti and vārtika are discriminated on account of their volume. Sūtrakrtānga-enumerates sixty-four categories of pāpaśrutas. first eight from bhauma to vyañjana are identical. 1. vide Samvão, page 154-155, foot- note No. 1. 2.
