________________ Elaboration-Six categories of upakram (introduction) have already been discussed. In the sixth category, bhaava-upakram, one of the sub-category is to understand the intentions of seniors. Acharya Jinabhadragani Kshamashraman states that after discussing 'understanding the thoughts of the teacher' the understanding of the thoughts contained in scriptures has been discussed here and that has six categories. All these will be discussed hereafter. The brief definition of these six categories are (1) Anupurvi-To put in a sequence. To place things in a progression or sequence is called anupurui. The things so placed are also called anupurvi (sequential configuration). It should be noted that a sequence cannot be made of one or two things. Sequence can be made only when there are at least three things or groups. (2) Nama–to assign a noun to a living or material thing for its identity is called nama or name. (3) Pramana—the means of arriving at truth is called pramana or validity. (4) Vaktavyata—to express as far as possible the right meaning of every component of a text is called vaktavyata or explication. (5) Arthadhikar—to describe the theme or the subject of a specific part of the text or a chapter is called arthadhikar or giving synopsis. (6) Samavatar-to include or assimilate one thing within another is called samavatar or assimilation. उपक्रम प्रकरण ( 238 ) The Discussion on Upakram Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
