## Introduction to the Text 217 The conclusion drawn regarding the freedom from the Devagamas is largely supported. It is not clear from the verse cited by the poet Hastimalla, etc., whether the Tattvarthasutra on which Samantabhadra wrote the commentary called Gandhasti is the same as the 'Tattvarthasutra' or 'Tattvarthashastra' of Umashvati, or some other Tattvarthasutra. It is possible that it is the same Tattvarthasutra of Umashvati, but it is also possible that it is a different Tattvarthasutra or Tattvarthashastra, composed by some other learned Acharya; because Umashvati was not the only author of Tattvarthasutras - there were other Acharyas as well, and the meaning of the Sutra is not only a concise statement or group of statements in prose, but it is also a synonym for 'Shastra', and poetic Shastras are also meant by it. For example: * "Composed by Kayastha Padmanabha from the Purvasutra." - Yashodharacharitra. * "Thus I have also stated here, knowing from the Shri Jinasutra." - Bhadrabahucharitra. * "The essence of the Pavayana, the five-fold collection of Sutras." - Pancharitakaya. * "The Devagamanasutra, with its scriptural evidence and clear understanding." - V. Kaurava Pra. * "This is also to be seen in detail in the Mulaaradhanaatika, in the Susthitasutra." - Anagaradharmamritatika. Therefore, the meaning of Tattvarthasutra is 'Shastra on the subject of Tattvartha', and from this, the Tattvarthasutra of Umashvati is called 'Tattvarthashastra' and 'Tattvarthadhigamamoksha Shastra'. 'Siddhantashastra' and 'Radhantasutra' are also... 1 This is the name of a chapter in the 'Bhagavati Aradhana' Shastra, which is in verse form.
