246 Appendix. It was said that Indranandika in his 'Shrutavatar' stated that 'it is not right to mention the scholars after Samantabhadra's Tumbuluracharya'. This statement receives a lot of nourishment from this mention. And Indranandika's said mention (E. p. 190) becomes very doubtful. But if we accept Tumbuluracharya as a separate person from Shrivardhadeva, which doesn't seem to have any obstacle till now, then Indranandika's mention remains as a particular opinion; and therefore, there is a need to investigate whether Tumbuluracharya and Shrivardhadeva were actually one person or two different persons. Vibudha Shridhar has mentioned the number of verses in Samantabhadra's Siddhanta-tika as 68,000, which is different from Indranandika's statement (48,000). This is absolutely clear from the above mention - 'Ashta-shashti-sahasra-pramita' word. There is no need to say anything about this. (3) From Vibudha Shridhar's 'Shrutavatar', it is also known that Muni named Bhootbali was earlier a king named 'Narvahan' and Muni Pushpadanta was a Seth named 'Subuddhi' of his Vasundhara city. Seeing his friend become a Muni, Narvahan took the Jain initiation along with Seth Subuddhi. Both of them went to Dharasenacharya to listen to the explanation of the scriptures. After listening to it, they became famous by the names 'Bhootbali' and 'Pushpadanta'. Bhootbali composed 'Shatkhandagam' and Muni Pushpadanta became the author of 'Vimshati-prarupana'. As 1. There is no information available anywhere about the names of these two Acharyas at the time of their initiation before this fame.

________________ २४६ परिशिष्ट । गया था कि इन्द्रनन्दिका तब अपने 'श्रुतावतार' में 'समन्तभद्रको तुम्बुलूराचार्यके बादका विद्वान् बतलाना ठीक नहीं है' उसको इस उल्ले- . खसे कितना ही पोषण मिलता है और इन्द्रनन्दिके उक्त उल्लेख (इ० पृ० १९० ) की स्थिति बहुत कुछ संदिग्ध हो जाती है । परंतु तुम्बुलूराचार्यको श्रीवर्द्धदेवसे पृथक् व्यक्ति मान लेनेपर, जिसके मान लेनेमें अभी तक कोई बाधा मालूम नहीं होती, इन्द्रनन्दीका वह उल्लेख एक मतविशेषके तौरपर स्थिर रहता है; और इस लिये इस बातके खोज किये जानेकी खास जरूरत है कि वास्तवमें तुम्बुलूराचार्य और श्रीवर्द्धदेव दोनों एक व्यक्ति थे या अलग अलग। , विबुध श्रीधरने समन्तभद्रकी सिद्धान्तटीकाको इन्द्रनन्दीके कथन ( ४८ हजार ) से भिन्न, ६८ हजार श्लोकपरिमाण बतलाया है, यह ऊपरके उल्लेखसे–'अष्टषष्ठिसहस्रप्रमिता' पदसे--बिलकुल स्पष्ट ही है, इस विषयमें कुछ कहनेकी जरूरत नहीं । (३ ) विबुध श्रीधरके 'श्रुतावतार ' से एक खास बात यह भी मालूम होती है कि भूतबलि नामा मुनि पहले 'नरवाहन' नामके राजा और पुष्पदन्त मुनि उनकी वसुंधरा नगरीके 'सुबुद्धि' नामक सेठ थे। मगधदेशके स्वामी अपने मित्रको मुनि हुआ देखकर नरवाहनने सेठ सुबुद्धिसहित जिन दीक्षा ली थी। ये ही दोनों धरसेनाचार्यके पास शास्त्रकी व्याख्या सुननेके लिये गये थे, और उसे सुन लेनेके बादसे ही इनकी · भूतबलि ' और 'पुष्पदन्त ' नामसे प्रसिद्धि हुई । भूतबलिने ' षट्खण्डागम' की रचना की और पुष्पदन्त मुनि · विंशति प्ररूपणा'के कर्ता हुए । यथा १ इस प्रसिद्धिसे पहले इन दोनों आचार्योंके दीक्षासमयके क्या नाम थे, इस बातकी अभी तक कहींसे भी कोई उपलब्धि नहीं हुई। Jain Education International For Personal & Private Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
