## Introduction
The teaching that is transmitted through an unbroken lineage of teachers, that is accepted by all the teachers, and that is being disseminated to the seekers, is called **Pavaijjat** teaching. (Conversely, the teaching that is not transmitted in this way should be known as **Apavaijjat** teaching.) Alternatively, the teaching of Bhagvant Aryamanjaka should be known as **Apavaijjat** and the teaching of Nagahasti should be known as **Pavaijjat**.
Although this passage clearly states that Aryamanjaka's teaching is not transmitted and Nagahasti's teaching is transmitted, the meaning that he later gives to these words casts doubt on their position. For example,
(2) Further on from the above passage, the Churnikar says: "**Tesicheva uvadeseṇ cudasajivasamasehiṁ daṇḍago bhaṇihiḍi**." (Page 564, Sutra 45)
While explaining this Sutra, Jayadhavalakar says: "**Tesicheva bhayavantaṇam ajjamaku-ṇagahastiṇam pavaijjateṇuvaesena cudasajivasamaseṣu jahaenukaṣṣapadavisesido appabahuadaṇḍo etto bhaṇihiḍi bhaṇiṣyat iti arthaḥ.**"
This means: "According to the transmitted teachings of Bhagvant Aryamanj and Nagahasti, in the fourteen categories of living beings, the lesser and greater **kṣayās** will be described as having a lesser or greater duration and punishment."
Readers will themselves experience how contradictory this statement of Jayadhavalakar is. Earlier, while explaining the 16th Churnisutra of this same chapter, he had stated that Aryamanj's teaching was not transmitted and Nagahasti's teaching was transmitted. But here, in the explanation of the 45th Sutra, he is saying that the teachings of both these teachers are transmitted. This statement of Jayadhavalakar undoubtedly casts doubt in the mind of the reader.
Dhavalakar has mentioned **Uttara-pratipatti** and **Dakṣiṇa-pratipatti** in many places in his commentary on the **Ṣaṭkhaṇḍāgama**. It is known that the transmitted lineage of Nagahasti later became known as **Dakṣiṇa-pratipatti** and the non-transmitted lineage of Aryamanj became known as **Uttara-pratipatti**.
Besides the above two passages, the Churnikar has mentioned these two types of teachings many times in other places as well, which can be known from Appendix No. 7.
Since Acharya Yativṛpabha had acquired knowledge of the **Āgama** from both Aryamanj and Nagahasti, and Jayadhavalakar has described him as a disciple of both, it is certain that the Churnikar has indicated the differences of opinion between his two teachers through these two teachings.
