PARALLELS: For the "tava tract" in Bhagavati (Āgs pp.9214-923'; DELEU pp.292-94, XXV 724) refer to Analysis I (below). --- No.29848 (AIKKANTA PĀŅA-BHOYAŅA nikṣepa: Bhagavati). No.6232 (OMOYARANA niksepa: Uttarādhyayana). Sthāna 3.3.238 (S.I, pp. 214-15). Vyavahāra 8.220 (S.II, p.820). Tattvārtha 9.19. Nisītha Bhā.42 ff. Mūlācāra 5.153 (OKUDA p.70). Mulārādhanā 211 ff. Tandulavaicārika (SCHUBRING p.12). Āvasyaka Ni. 1064.
ANALYSIS I: THE TAVA COMPLEX AS SUCH. What is understood in the dogmatic works of the Jainas by "tapas" is divided into "outer penance" (six subdivisions) and "inner penance" (again six subdivisions). The locus classicus for treatment and enumeration is Uttarādhyayana Ch.30. The enumeration is given in two verses:
30.8 (outer penance) :anasanam (1) unoyariya (2) bhikkha-yariya (3) ya rasa-pariccão (4) kāya-kileso (5) samlīnayā (6) ya bajjho tavo hoi.
30.30 (inner penance):pāyacchittam (7) viñao (8) veyāvaccam (9) tah' eva sajjhão (10) jhānam (11) ca viussaggo (12), eso abbhintaro tavo.
We shall refer to the treatment contained in Ch.30 of Uttarādhyayana in connection with niksepa No.6232 (see pp. 102 ff. below). The niksepas to be discussed now are embedded into a tava tract occurring in almost identical form in two texts which are later than Uttarādhyayana, viz. Aupapātika and Bhagavati. Below we give the necessary references both for the tava tract and for the embedded nikşepas: -
tava tract: Aup. 17-19 (s. 11, pp. 8-12), Bhag.25.7.801-3 (S.I, pp. 893-7)
No.53 29 --- No.54
Aup. 18 Aup. 18
OMOYARIYĀ (no. 2) BHIKKHĀYARIYĀ (no.3)
No.49 Bhag.25.7.801
(reference to Aup.
in Bhag.25.7.801) No.50 Bhag.25.7.803
No.55$30
Aup. 19
VIUSSAGGA (no.12)
The tava tract is a later addition in both texts. In Aupapātika, the tava tract interrupts the continuous narration. In Bhagavatī, it differs from the context on account of the "se kim tam... se ttam ..." pattern which originated in Nandī (and was used freely also in Anuyogadvāra). This pattern is restricted to the tava tract as far as the Bhagavati (25.7) is concerned. Again the tava tract was transferred from the Aupapātika to the Bhagavatī (and not vice versa), as the latter text refers thrice explicitly to the
