The rendering satpañcāśat found in the Avantisundarikatha has misled V. V. Mirashi into believing existence of fiftysix Prakrit poets writing in unison. See 'Some Ancient Prakrit Poets', Bharatiya Vidya, 10, 1949, pp. 42-48 (=Studies in Indology. I, 1960, pp. 89-95). Besides these the renderings saprajñaka and samprajñaka are found in some editions of the Dhvanyaloka. It is not clear how far any one of these had got established. We may also note that sakarņa meaning "a learned person is attested from literature at least twice: Once from Muniratnasūri's Amamacaritra (Composed in 1168-69 A.D.), in a passage cited at M. D. Desai, Jain Sahitya-no Samkšipta Itinās (1933), p. 200; second time, in the Prakrit form sakanna, as noted in the Pāiasaddamdhannavo on the basis of two
passages from the Surasundarikahā (composed in 1038-39 A.D.). 8. For quite interesting later semantic development of the word
şatprajñaka see Upadhye, op. cit., p. 388. 9. For example :
यस्तु पर्यनुयोगस्य निभेदः क्रियते पदैः । विदग्धगोष्ठयां वाक्यैर्वा त हि प्रश्नोत्तर विदुः ॥
Sarasvatikanthābharaṇa, 2, 136.
