KÄRTTIKEY ANUPREKŞA
So the above evidence puts one terininus that Kumārs flourished swule time before the 13th century A. D.
37 i) The exposition of twelve Anupreksās by Kumbira has been already compared and contrasted with that by Kundakunda, Vattakeru and Sivārça. In my opinion, bie shows their influence here and there, and naturally he is to be put after thet.
1) As contragistiayaishea frou ve order of enumeration of twelve Anuprekşis, Kumíru, unlike his predecessors in Prakrit, adopts the order found in the Trattruērtha-strax. Then, as already noted above (p. 62), he shows a good deal of influence of the 7-strus in the pattern of his technical and dogmatical discourses.
iii) Then, as noted above (p. 62 ), certain gåthåg echo the expressions of Pūjyupida in his Sarartha-sudha on the 7-sñtrees.
iv) The following gūtbi from the R.-Anusprekṣā, 279 :
विरला णिसुणहि सर्च दिला जागति तमदो तथं । विरला भावहि सञ्च बिरलाणं धारणा होदि ॥ is obviously an adaptation of the following doha from the Yogaseret, 65:
विमला जाणाई सन्तु बुद्ध विरला णिसुणहिँ सत्तु । बिरला झायहि तन्नु जिय बिरला धारहि तत्तु ॥ The K-Anupreko is not written in the Apabhramsa dialeot; so the Present tense 3rd p. pl. formas znał and bhavahi (preferably rusalised hi.) are intruders here, but the same are justified in the l'ogasīru. To Kumāra some Apabbraṁga forms are not offensive, because some of them could be used in the Prakrit texts of his age. But this is not a case of the use of stray Apabhramka forms. The contents of both the verges are identical The Mes, 80 far collated have uniformly admitted this gātha. The fact that the dohā is converted into a gäthi does not admit the possibility that some later copyist roight have taken it over from the Yogasire. It is highly probable, even possible, that Kumāra's verse is based, consciously or unconsciously, on that of Joindu who is tentatively signed to the Cth century A, D.
v) The following gathā, No. 307, from the K.-Anusprekşdi,
पदुगदिभम्बो सप्णी सुबिसुनो जग्गमाणपजत्तो । संसारतडे णियहो णाणी पावेह सम्मसं ॥ deserves comparison with Gommatasara, Jivakānda, 651:
वयुगविभवो सच्णी पणत्तो सुद्धगो य सागारो । जागारो सल्लेसो सलछिगो सम्ममुवगमई ॥
