Section III establishes the existence of the soul in the case of all the five kinds of the sthāvara living beings beginning with the earth-bodied ones and ending with vegetation. In v. 371 of section II (i. e. v. 598) there is mention of Jogavihāna. It seems to be the name of a work, but, it is certainly not the same as Visavīsiya (XVII) which has the same title as this. Further, in this section, v. 122–123 (i. e. v. 349–350 ) there is mention of a narrative of two sittins, one of them being Jiņņa-sitthi. This narration is given in the com. (pp. 58b-59a).

is refuted. 3 See the Gujarati upodghāta (p. 1) of Anandasāgara Suri to his
translation of Pancavatthuga. 4 The text along with Abhayadevi Sūri's com, called S'isyahita
is published by Jaina Dharma Prasāraka Sabha, Bhavnagar, in 1912 A.D. The bare text and the alphabetical index of its verses are pablished in 1928 and 1929 A. D, respectively. Further, both the text and its com. by Abhayadeva are also published by R. K.
