Subject.-Angaculika generally refers to the culikās of the angas like Acaránga. A work of the same name has been mentioned in Nandisutra as a kind of kalika śruta. It is also referred to in Sthǎnǎnga (X). But it is difficult to say whether the work written in this Ms. is the same as the canonical work above referred to.
For Private & Personal Use Only
In the beginning we find the explanation of the word angaculika and the part which angaculikās play in adorning the 11 angas. The present work deals with the discipline of a Jaina saint. It is written in Jaina Prakrit. Begins. fol. rb नमो सुयदेवयाए भगवईए ||
