Dr. 51 frasetta - Siddhasena, often with the title Divākara and to be distinguished from some other authors of the same name is traditionally believed to be the author of the Sanmati Prakaraņa, Nyāyāvatāra and Dvātrim šikas and also of the Kalyāṇamandira-stotra. 1 His Sanmati-prakaraņa, in Prakrt is the first Jain work to establish Jaina doctrines on logical basis and it has been followed by subsequent Svetāmbara and Digambara authors. His 21 Dvātỉ shikas in Sanskrit, so far available, Each one of these deals with different topics. Some of the opening ones are poetical hymns in praise of Mahāvira. Many of them are expositions of non Jaina Dar sanas; and one of them deals with the artand technique of disputation. The Nyāyāvatār deals with Jaina · nyāya, while the Kalyānamandira is a stuti of
Pārsvanātha.3 The following material is relevant for fixing Siddhasena's time. Jinsena (in his Adipuraņa, C. 840) praises Siddhasena as a victorious disputant. Virasenaquotes (in his Dhavalā comm. 816 A.D.) the Sammaisutta; Jinasena(in his Harivam šapurāņa, 783. A.D.) compliments his Sūktayah; Haribhadra (Pascavastuka between 650 and 777 A.D.) refers to his famous Sanmati-tarka and to his being Divākara, and further in his Anekāntajayapatākā) speaks of a vrtti (not available) to Sanmati-tarka composed by Mallavadin (C. Sth century of the Vikrama era) who wrote annotations to Dharmottara s Commentary on Dharmakirtis Nyāyabindu; Jinadāsagaội (in his cūrni to the Nišitha Sūtra 676 A.D.) has two references to the Sanmati and one to the miraculous powers of Siddhasenācārya, Jina-bhadragaại (Višeşāvašyakabhāșya, 611 A.D.) discusses the main doctrines of Siddhasena; Sivakoti's Ratnamālā (of doubtful date) mentions Bhattāraka Siddhasena as prior to Samantabhadra, as in some Svetāmbara pattaval is; Pūjyapada (in his parçaval is Jainendra-Vyakarana, C. 450 A.D. refers to Siddhasena along with Bhūtabali, Prabhācandra, Samantabhadra and other ancient Jaina authors, and lastly Vārāhmihira's Brhajjataka (C. 505 A.D.) mentions an astronomer author Siddhasena. All this shows that Siddhasena flourished earlier than 450 A.D.
