INTRODUCTION
(though these sources are not stated) e. g. v. 5 from Uttarajjhayananijjutti ( 160 ), v. 40–51 from Nandi (v. 63-74) and v. 164 from Sammaipayarana (III, 53).
Uvaësapaya has three commentaries. One of them is by some one who preceded Municandra Sūri and is very deep in meaning. This is what we learn from this Sūri's com. styled as Sukhasanbodhani and composed in Samvat 1174. As stated in Jaina Granthavali (p. 171) there is a com. by Vardhamāna Sūri. Up till now, it seems, only Sukhasambodhani has been completely published in two parts in Mukti-kamala-Jaina-mohana-mālā as Nos. 19 and 20 in 1923 A. D. and 1925 A. D. respectively. It explains by means of narrations mostly in Päiya, the illustrations hinted at, in the text.
(23) Damsaņasuddhi or Darisanasattari
This is a small work in Pāïya in 70 verses, and it deals with right faith and its purity. Hence it is known in Samskrta. as Samyaktvasaptati. In Pāïya it can be therefore named as Sammattasaltari, Darsanasattari and Darisanasattari as well. Verses 52 and 6* are quotations as stated by the author himself, and they.come from the pen of some saint who preceded him. Verses 59-63 mention that the soul exists, and they define its characteristics.
This work is commented upon by Sanghatilaka Sūri in Samvat 1422. The com. is designated as Tattvakaumudi, and it illustrates the main topics of the text by means of narrations. This com. along with the text has been published in D. L.J.P. Fund Series as No. 35 in 1916 A. D.
(24) Darisanasattari This work is mentioned as Darsanasaptatikā in A Descriptive Catalogue of Manuscripts in the Jain Bhandars at Pattans on p. 92. On p. 93 its beginning is given as under:
__"नमिऊण वद्धमाणं सावधम्म समासओ वोच्छं ।

"चउसद्दहणतिलिङ्गदसविणयतिसुद्धिपञ्ऋगयदोस । अट्ठपभावणभूसणलक्खणपत्रविहसञ्जत्तं ॥५॥ छबिहजयणागारं छमावणाभावियं च छट्ठाण ।
इह सत्तसदिलक्खणमेयविसुद्धं च सम्मत्तं ॥६॥" 3 This will be hereafter referred to as DOMJP. 4 This may be the reason why the work is named by some as
Sāvagadhammapagarapa.
