**Kasayapahuḍa Sut**
**Other Commentaries on Kasayapahuḍa**
According to Indranandi's Śrutāvatāra, after the Cūrṇisūtra and Uccāraṇāvṛtti, a commentary called 'Paddhati' was composed on the Gāthāsūtras of Kasayapahuḍa. It comprised 12,000 ślokas and was authored by Śāmakundaācārya. According to Jayadhavala, 'Paddhati' refers to a commentary that explains the original sūtra and its vṛtti. This Paddhati was composed in Sanskrit, Prakrit, and Karnāṭaki languages.
Long after the composition of this Paddhati, Tumbalūrācārya wrote a very extensive commentary called Cūḍāmaṇi in Karnāṭaki language, comprising 84,000 ślokas, on the first five sections of the Ṣaṭkhaṇḍāgama and Kasayapahuḍa. Subsequently, Indranandi mentions the composition of a commentary on Kasayapahuḍa by Bappadēvācārya, but he does not provide any clear details about its name or extent.
Currently, the Paddhati by Śāmakundaācārya, the Cūḍāmaṇi by Tumbalūrācārya, and the commentary by Bappadēvācārya are all unavailable. After these, the Jayadhavala commentary was composed on Kasayapahuḍa and its Cūrṇisūtras. The initial part, comprising 20,000 ślokas, was composed by Vīrasēnācārya, and after his demise, the remaining part was completed by Jinēnācārya. Jayadhavala comprises 60,000 ślokas and is currently available in written and printed form everywhere.
**Āgama Literature Available to the Cūrṇikāra**
It is certain that the extensive Cūrṇisūtra composed by Ārya Yativṛṣabha on just 233 Gāthās of Kasayapahuḍa is a testament to his profound knowledge. Although Yativṛṣabha received specific instructions on the subject matter from great Āgama scholars of his time like Āryama and Nāgahastī, who were also commentators on Kasayapahuḍa, he must have had access to other Āgama literature related to karma, which enabled him to complete his profound and extensive Cūrṇi and compose independent treatises based on each word of the Gāthās of Kasayapahuḍa.
After examining all available Jain literature, it becomes clear that the Cūrṇikāra must have had access to at least four texts related to karma: Paṭṭakhaṇḍāgama, Kammapayadī, Sataka, and Sittarī. The presence of Paṭṭakhaṇḍāgama in front of him is indicated by his sūtra-composition style and the Samarpana-sūtras, where he has instructed the Uccāraṇācāryas to explain various topics using the eight Anuyogadvāras: Sat, Sakhyā, Kṣetra, Sparśana, Kāla, Antara, Bhāgābhāga, and Alpabahutva.
