In the beginning, the sutra says: "Tiui rafale tad, तं जहा-आभिणियोहिअनाणं सुअनाणं ओहिनाणं मपFH Caruje BATON" ( .) i. e.' knowledge is of five kinds viz. Abhinibohika (or knowledge which we obtain by means of our talent), Shruta (or knowledge which we obtain by 'hearing' seripturas etc.), Ayadhi (or knowledge by the power of which we are enabled to know whatever things happen in a particiilar part or region of the earth within a certain specified limit, great or small, without the use of the senses or the mind ), Manahparyaya: (or knowledge by means of which we are enabled to know, without the use of the senses or the mind, the thoughts and desires of the minds of other persons), and Kevala (or Omniscience). Commenting upon this sutra, the commentator Haribhadrasuri defines the Abhinibodhika, the first kind of knowledge, thus : , ___" तत्राभिमुखों नियतो बोधोऽमिनिबोधः, सपष Farfas Facturarararfufaalfa*............fara बुध्यते वा तदित्यामिनिबोधिकम्-अवग्रहादिरूपं मतिज्ञानHa................ill " [Padiya (Marwad) Edition
