tion in Prākrit can be said to be explaining the six adhyayanas of the Avaśyakasútra.
The niryukti of the ist ( Sāmāyika) adhyayana can be divided into two groups: (1) Uvagghāyanijjutti ( Upodghātaniryukti ) and ( 2 ) Namokkäranijjutti ( Namaskäraniryukti). Out of them Upodghata-niryukti is sub-divided into several sections known as under :--
(1) Pedhiyă (Pithikā), (2) Padhamävaravariya ( Prathamăvaravarikā), ( 3 ) Biïyāvaravariya ( Dvītiyāvaravarikā), (4) Uvasagga (Upasarga ), (5.) Samosarana ( Samavasaraņa ), (6) Ganaharavāya' (Ganadharavada), (7) Sāmāyārī ( Sãmācāri ), (8) Nihộavavattavva (Nihnavavaktavya ) and (9) Sesauvagghāyanijjutti (Seșopodghātariryukti).
The niryukti of the second ( Caturviņśatistava ) adhyayana has no such sub-divisions. The sarnę is the case with the niryukti of the third ( Vandana ) aydhyayana.
Under the niryukti of the fourth (pratikramaņa) adhyayana, we find ( 1 )4 Jhāṇasaya ( Dhyānaśataka ), (2) Päritthāvaniyānijjutti (Pārişthāpanikāniryukti), ( 3 ) Pațikkamasamgahaņi ( Pratikramaṇāsamgrahani)s; (4) Jogasaṁgahanijjutti ( Yogasamgrahaniryukti ) and ( 5 ) Asajjhāyanijjutti ( Asvādhyāyaniryukti).
Neither the niryukti of the firth ( Kāyotsarga ) adhyayana nor that of the sixth (Pratyākhyāna ) adhyayana, has any subdivisions as we find in the case of the niryukti of the first adhyayana.
