INTRODUCTION
“वेदाहमेतं पुरुषं महान्तमादित्यवर्णं तमसः परस्तात् ।
तमेव विदित्वाऽतिमृत्युमेति नान्यः पन्था विद्यतेऽयनाय ॥ १८ ॥
This phraseology is incorporated in Bhaktamarastotra. For other details see my Samskṛtā bhūmikā (p. 11) to Bhaktāmara, Kalyanamandira and Namiüna.
According to Jaina granthavali (p. 164) Dharmasagara, too, has commented upon Soḍasaka-prakaraņa. Thus there are three commentaries.
(76) Samsāradāvānalastuti1
This hymn consists of four verses in four different metres, and it is written in a language which is Samskṛta and Païya as well and is thus an example of 'Bhāṣāsama'. In v. 1 there is an eulogy of Lord Mahavira, in v. 2 that of all the Tirthankaras, in v. 3 that of the Jaina canon and in v. 4 that of the goddess of speech. We have a padapürti by Sumatikallola. It comprises all the feet. It is named as Prathamajinastavana. It is published in Jainastotrasangraha (pt. I, pp. 65-67). On pp. 67-69, there is Pārsvajinastavana which, too, is a padapurti of all the feet. In part II (p. 20) we come across a hymn which is named as Jinastuti and which is a pudapurti of the first foot of every verse of the original one.
(80) Samaraiccacariya or Samarāiccakahā
The first name is mentioned by the author himself on
